With having now watched Nausicaa Of The Valley Of The Wind, I am now up to seven Hayao Miyazaki films in my mental catalogue. Which is to say: a fair amount, but not nearly enough! Nausicaa is a strange one. It technically pre-dates Studio Ghibli, but it is often shown at Ghibli based viewings and festivals. It’s the pre-cursor to the studio, and the film … Continue reading NausicaA Of The Valley Of The Wind Review
One of those things I guess I just don’t “get” as an adult is how often I am supposed to change my bed’s mattress. Society would lead me to believe it is more often than I think it is, because how else would you explain how there are mattress stores, like, EVERYWHERE. Given that I assume my bed’s mattress is going to last until I … Continue reading California King Review
Comic writer D.G. Chichester is with The Order today to discuss the neon-soaked (or is it?) 1980’s-set sequel to Wonder Woman. Have either of their feelings changed on it, as this was a rewatch for both Stew and D.G.? For more of Mr. Chichester’s works, click HERE! Continue reading Episode 149: Wonder Woman 1984
I don’t really remember turning sixteen. I know that is one of the birthdays everyone is supposed to look forward to and remember forever, but I, as a currently 44 year old, don’t recall it at all. I did not wake up to a new car in the driveway or anything, so I suppose it was just another birthday for me. But probably with a … Continue reading Sixteen Candles Review
I was first introduced to the world of Korean and Japanese pop and rap music in the mid-2000’s. I was dating a girl who was enamored of the stuff, and her iPod was loaded with songs from artists like m-flo, Se7en, BoA, Namie Amuro, and more. Whenever we went places, that was what we listened to, like, 90% of the time. That or Tenacious D. … Continue reading K-Pop Demon Hunters Review
Anyone who knows me knows that I love some 1980’s horror movies and franchises. Obviously I have long been a lover of the big series like Friday The 13th, Halloween, and A Nightmare On Elm Street, but I also quite dig the lower tier stuff when I have seen it. Movies like Maniac Cop, Grotesque, or Chopping Mall are highly enjoyable despite their lower budgets. … Continue reading Killer Klowns From Outer Space Review
Sometimes I get so caught up in looking for movies on Shudder that I forget my AMC+ app has an entire cinematic catalogue aside from just what the horror sub-app offers! Recently, while tearing through my various subscriptions and looking for something to watch, I opened up AMC+. But before I got to the Shudder button, I caught myself looking at another option: a movie … Continue reading Neighborhood Watch Review
We have Mike, the creator of Zip, joining The Order this episode to discuss 2003’s hottest superhero movie, Daredevil! For more info on how to get Zip, click HERE! Continue reading Episode 148: Daredevil
I never saw my first Predator movie until after the COVID-19 pandemic started. When I found myself with more time at home during that worldwide crisis, I decided to start plowing through movies I had never seen before (and that’s a hobby for me that has continued ever since). Early on in that rush, I watched the 1987 Arnold Schwarzenegger action classic, Predator. I really … Continue reading Predator: Killer Of Killers Review
I am, admittedly, not the world’s biggest Alien franchise expert. I have seen about half of the movies released across the entire breadth of the Alien universe. I have, of course, seen Alien and Aliens. I mean: everyone should have seen those classics, right? From there, I’ve also seen the first Alien Vs Predator movie and Alien: Prometheus. And that’s it; that’s all I have. … Continue reading Alien: Romulus Review
It’s time for another blast from the past review, as I continue my march through the list of classic movies that I have never seen before. I actually had to take two tries to watch Godzilla 1954; my first attempt saw me find a copy on my friend’s Plex server that was buried under an audio track talking about the history of Japan and the … Continue reading Godzilla (1954) Review
Writer and Director Gabriel Theis joins the Order this episode to discuss Nicholas Cage’s turn as the living spirit of vengeance! It’s Ghost Rider! For more from Gabriel Theis, click HERE! Continue reading Episode 147: Ghost Rider
If you’re thirsty for more blood in the wake of Sinners, sink your fangs into the SCREAMBOX Original film Bleeding on June 10. In a world where vampire blood is harvested as a drug, two desperate teenagers on the run from a vicious dealer break into an empty house and find a sleeping girl locked inside. I always want to like vampire movies more than … Continue reading Bleeding Review

We have already had Captain America: Brave New World and Thunderbolts*, and Fantastic Four: First Steps is becoming more imminent with each passing day. With Brave New World now available to watch at home on Disney Plus, let’s take … Continue reading Captain America: Brave New World Review
Having recently ranked the Mission: Impossible franchise after it [allegedly] wrapped up with The Final Reckoning, I got to thinking about what other franchises I could do a ranking of. In addition to Tom Cruise’s nearly 30 year action journey, I had previously done the Halloween, Friday The 13th, and Nightmare On Elm Street series from bottom to top. Which is little surprise, as horror … Continue reading Ranking The Franchise: Child’s Play/Chucky
