I’m Chevy Chase and You’re Not!

I’m a huge fan of nostalgia. I love it, I overvalue it, but at least I’ll admit it. And as a Child of the ’80s who grew up without basic cable, I gleaned my sense of humor through Saturday Night… Continue Reading →

Dracula Through the Ages: From Lugosi to Caleb Landry Jones

Dracula has never stayed dead for too long. Every few years, someone, or perhaps more accurately, some studio, resurrects him, reshapes him and sends him back into the world carrying old emotions and newly repackaged evil. Sometimes he is an… Continue Reading →

Wonder Man Goes Behind the Scenes of Hollywood Superheroes

The Marvel Cinematic Universe is suffering a bit of a rebrand at the moment after debuting multiple big-screen misfires (with the exception of the blockbuster Deadpool & Wolverine, of course) and some so-so small-screen series of Phase Five. The next… Continue Reading →

One Battle After Another Made Me Question Myself

I’m starting to wonder if my movie tastes have quietly drifted out of sync with the critical consensus. Not in a “everyone else is wrong” way, but in that slow realization that the movies hitting me hardest are often the… Continue Reading →
