Movie review – Robot Dreams
So… This was different, in a good way. How to describe this? It’s a little like Bojack Horseman meets Issac Asimov. Coincidentally, or not, Issac Asimov has a short story titled Robot Dreams, but the story in this animation is not remotely related beyond the dreaming part. The animation is based on a graphic novel […]
Revisiting “The Expanse”: one of the great science fiction series
If you are a science fiction fan then you’ve almost certainly watched The Expanse already. But if not, boy do I have a Christmas present for you. I’ve watch most of the iconic science fiction series and I can say this is as good as any of them, and better than most. Having said that, the […]
How do I decide which new movies to add to the RunPee database?
This is one of the hardest management decisions I have to make for RunPee. It’s hard because I have incomplete information. I can’t know how popular a movie will be before it’s released. Here are the general guidelines I follow when making the decision. The Ease Choice If it’s a well-known wide-release movie, then it’s […]
Data Analysis of Tom Hank’s filmography
Tom Hanks has had an illustrious career, and it’s still going strong. He has starred in, by my count, 59 movies over a 40-year career (1984-2024). That’s about 1.5 movies/year. But as much as he’s done, a few things stick out. For instance, he is the definition of A-list movie-star, yet he’s never been in […]
Movie Review – Moana 2
The good news: we were in at theater filled with, what sounded like, young children. It sounded like they were engaged with the movie throughout. There is plenty of action and funny antics, and a good amount of song and dance. Young kids will eat it up. But, if you’re the parent tasked with taking […]
Independent Film Review – The Imposters
Sometimes you’ll watch a film without realising that there is something different about it. For instance, if you started reading Gadsby by Ernest Vincent Wright I wonder how far you’d get into this 1939 novel before realising it is a lipogram. By that I mean it is 50,000 words long but nowhere does Wright use […]
Movie Review – Wicked
Let me say upfront that I’m not a fan of musicals, so I’m not the target audience. I could be the poster child for the inverse-target audience. So, if you’re a 57-year-old white guy who doesn’t like musicals, read on. 🙂 Just because I don’t like musicals doesn’t mean I can’t appreciate them. For instance, […]
Movie Review – Gladiator II
I think The Critical Drinker said it best: We are not entertained. Not to say that this is a bad movie. It isn’t. After all, this movie is directed by Ridley Scott, who also directed Alien, Blade Runner, Thelma & Louise, The Martian and what else…? Oh yeah, the first Gladiator. Many of the qualities of a great […]
Anything Extra
One of the favorite features of the RunPee app is to let you know if there is Anything Extra during the end credits. We don’t just give you a yes or no. If there are extras, we’ll tell you when they happen, but without spoiling the fun.
