Movie Review – The American Society of Magical Negroes
—
“Welcome to the American Society of Magical Negroes!” is said to Aren (Justice Smith) as his world has now completely shifted from the mundane to now possessing magical powers, a la “Men in Black”. (In fact, both films use “erasing your memory” as the ultimate punishment when banished from their respective societies). Anyway, Aren now…

RunPee Dune Hub
I’m probably not the right person to write this. No…I’m definitely not the right person to write this! You’d be much better informed if Dan or Jilly had written an introduction to this Dune mini-hub. Perhaps they’ll write something better and just get rid of my nonsense. You see, the problem is that I have…

Movie Review – Aquaman and the Lost Kingdom
—
DC doesn’t disappoint. By that, I mean DC has been so consistently disappointing that I’ve come to expect their movies to be disappointing, and in that way, they don’t disappoint. Aquaman and The Lost Kingdom is a fitting end to the DCU, since the DCU is now itself, the Lost Kingdom. This will be the…

Movie Review – The Marvels
—

TL;DR The overall direction of the MCU is a mess. It appears that events in this movie were force-fed to the writers, leaving them…

Movie Review – The Marvels
And so we come to the 33rd film in the Marvel Cinematic Universe. The Marvels is a bit like a mini-Avengers in that it isn’t single character lead. We have a trio running things under the control of Nick Fury (Samuel L Jackson); Carol Danvers (Brie Larson), Monica Rambeau (Teyonah Parris), and Kamala Khan (Iman…

Indie Movie Review – Minore
—
It’s funny how, sometimes, you can see something and it reminds you of something totally different. In this case the thing I saw was the Anglo-Greek film Minore and it reminded me of something that resonates with me for a variety of reasons…Dylan Thomas’ Under Milk Wood. Why does an almost seventy year old radio…

Indie Movie Review – Piper
—
As I’ve mentioned elsewhere, if you have a good story then you don’t just use it once! Whereas A Christmas Carol came from a novella written in 1843’s London, the story behind Piper dates back to the Middle Ages and from Hamelin, Germany when it was originally known as Der Rattenfänger von Hameln. In this…
