Taika Waititi was an inspired choice to direct Thor: Ragnarok.  I really need to say that first before anything else. If you don’t want to know ANYTHING about the film going forward (i.e. one of those folks who hasn’t watched the trailer and sees any bit of information as a spoiler) you may not want […]

Fans of Stephen King have always been highly polarized on film adaptations of his novels, and The Dark Tower looks to follow in that proud tradition.  Referred to by King as his “opus”, the 8 book series was originally published in 1982, and has even been done in comic form.

Transformers: The Last Knight wasn’t terrible and I’m kind of pissed off about it. After sitting through all four previous Paramount Transformers films over the weekend leading up to my screening of #5, I was all ready to write this one off too.  I was shocked at how ‘adult’ the first film was, the casual cursing […]
