Independent Film Review – Jade
—
Yes…I, like many, went through my phase of consuming martial arts films at a phenomenal rate. It was relatively easy to get through the Bruce Lee films because he never made that many but Jackie Chan seemed to be churning out a new one every week! It wasn’t all Far Eastern fare though, Jean-Claude Van…

30th Anniversary Rewatch – Speed
—
How can Speed be thirty years old when 1975 is only twenty years ago? Such is the vagaries of the perception of time concomitant with old age that has more to do with my family doctor than Doctor Who. If there has to be a film to watch again in order to celebrate an anniversary…

Avatar: The Last Airbender (animated) season three
Avatar: The Last Airbender originally aired on Nickelodeon. It’s animated, and the characters frequently behave/react childishly. Does that combination mean its a kid’s show? We can have a long discussion on what constitutes a kid’s show and what doesn’t and find many examples of shows that blur the lines. I can’t imagine any are more blurry…

Movie Review – Furiosa: A Mad Max Saga
—
It may take George Miller almost a decade to get a movie out, but when he does he doesn’t disappoint. I really can’t believe that Mad Max: Fury Road came out in 2015. Where do the decades go? Everything You Would Expect When I think of George Miller the first thing that comes to mind is…
