We’re big fans of Mike Flanagan, particularly The Haunting of Hill House. He followed that up last year with The Haunting of Bly Manor, and he’s already put out his next big project, Midnight Mass. Hill House and Bly Manor were quality TV, but it's fair to say that Hill House is certainly the scarier show. Where do we all think something like Midnight Mass falls on that spectrum. Is it both really scary and high quality? Is it not scary but high quality? Or does it lack in both departments? List...

Sam Raimi's Spider-Man 1 burst onto the scene in 2002 and immediately shattered all kinds of box office records. Tobey Maguire would return for two more films to round out the original Spider-Man trilogy. Maguire would be joined by a stellar supporting cast in Kirsten Dunst and James Franco, and villains like Green Goblin and Doc Ock would make their cinematic debut. Nearly 20 years later how do these films hold up? And how will Tobey's Spider-Man share the screen with Tom Holland and Andrew Gar...

This show explores some of those alternate realities through the view of The Watcher, who can’t interfere. We’ve seen some characters take the place of others, we’ve seen some familiar events play out very differently, and we’ve seen the MCU take on different genres than we ever expected, like zombies for example.

It is time once again to talk about another Marvel origin story. This time Marvel introduces the master of unarmed Kung Fu, Shang-Chi. Since 2008 we’ve gotten numerous origin stories from Marvel of ranging quality. The biggest critique of the MCU origin films has always been following the same formula and story beats. So the question we have to tackle today is, does Shang-Chi and the Legend of The Ten Rings follow that formula to a “T” or does it stand on its own while introducing us to Marvel’s...

After David Ayer declined to direct the sequel to the critically panned but financial hit that was the first Suicide Squad, the hunt for writers and directors commenced.

The following year he was rehired for Guardians, leading to our first (credited) director to bridge the gap between the worlds of Marvel and DC. Gunn had h...
