Aquaman Is More Than Just A Fish Boy

January 11, 2019 Dante Nahai Movie, DC, Aquaman

In any type of comic book media, there is always a misconception about Aquaman. He was the butt of every super hero joke, those jokes mainly repeating the same pattern that Aquaman is “lame” and he can talk to fish. As someone who has read his comics in the… Read the rest at our website.

Ragnarok Finds Humor Among The Action

November 10, 2017 Corbin Bolies Movie, Movie Review, Marvel

Thor: Ragnarok is more of a comedy film than a superhero one. Director Taika Waititi (What We Do in the Shadows, Hunt for the Wilderpeople) raises the likes of Chris Hemsworth, Tom Hiddleston and Cate Blanchett to their comedic peaks, providing for a mostly charming, subversive addition to the… Read the rest at our website.

A Great Cast Makes Daddy’s Home 2 A Good Time

November 10, 2017 Giovanni Del Fa Movie, Movie Review, Comedy

At a time when it seemed like the majority of comedies had lost both value and meaning, 2015’s Daddy’s Home introduced audiences to a different kind of story.

Rules Truly Don’t Apply To This Flop Of A Film

December 5, 2016 Alexander Aspuru Movie, Movie Review, Romantic Comedy

Directed, co-produced, and written by 60s star Warren Beatty, Rules Don’t Apply has been in development for 40 years, making its $600,000 box office (compared to a $25 million budget) disappointing.
