See that “Frankenstein” in the title above? Ignore it. Forget you ever even read it. Because despite what that title tells you, along with the official blurb you will find down below, Fox’s new sci-fi drama The Frankenstein Code has practically nothing to do with Mary Shelley’s classic Promethean tale. Sure, the disclaimer for this new series starring True Blood …
Avengers 2.5 Captain America: Civil War is shaping up to be one hell of a movie. With just about every Marvel hero and their cousin showing up, it’s going to have a cast that rivals and possibly eclipses the Avengers movies. And with that many people on-screen, and with the film supposedly setting up the massive universe rearranging battles to come …

I’m a big fan of Orange Is The New Black, the surprise hit for Netflix. It’s a smart prison drama – one that I’ve read is actually quite authentic – and above that and excellent female-driven drama. Last Updated: May 12, 2015
Ahhh, Hannibal. A series that I was first hesitant to engage in and then ended up needing more and more every time I was dragged into the madness of Mads Mikkelsen’s character (and what a portrayal of Hannibal Lecter, better than Sir Anthony Hopkins in my book!).

Old action heroes never die, they just end up in prison. It happened to Stallone & Schwarzenegger in Escape Plan, and now it’s Dolph Lundgren’s turn in Riot. And here we all thought they were expendable. Anyway here’s the synopsis of the ridiculous-sounding plot, but we’ve never watched a B-action movie for the story now have we? Copper Jack Stone …
TV series adaptations of famous movies have a track record wobblier than the first episode of a season The Biggest Loser. For every awesome Buffy The Vampire Slayer, Stargate SG-1, Fargo and M*A*S*H*, we we get Timecop… and actually, Timecop is the only example I need; it’s crap enough for all the other crap shows. And now another famous sci-fi …
Mallrats will always be one of my defining films from my childhood. Finding a dusty old DVD version of the flick, booting it up and basking in the shenanigans of Brodie, Jay and Silent Bob while Ben Affleck scummed things up in the background all made for an enjoyable film. Especially if you were a comic book fan back in …
