A Brief History of The Invisible Man
Leigh Whannell’s remake of The Invisible Man hits theaters on February 28. It should be interesting. Whannell was one of the writers and actors in Saw. Production company Blumhouse is behind Happy Death Day and The Purge series. This is the first attempt at doing anything interesting with the character of the Invisible Man on…

Top 3 James Bond Parody Movie Songs
Gotta admit it — the James Bond movies offered some outstanding music over the years, especially in the opening credit themes. But even the Bond “parody” movies do a great job with opening theme songs — both funny and somehow still sounding Bondian. Here are our top three songs from the Bond parody genre. Bond…

Top 12 James Bond Songs
Of course, listing all the BEST James Bond theme songs will be both 1. difficult and 2. subjective. By which I mean there are so very many great Bond theme songs that all manage a Bondian flair… and my own opinion won’t be the same as yours. Hopefully my choices will make your top ten…

Every Time Die was in the title of a James Bond Film
We’ve got the “last” Bond film with Daniel Craig coming out in early April. Of course, DIE is in the title. This is a recognizable Bond thing. But how many 007 movies really have die in the title after all? Let’s take a look. Live and Let Die (1970) I can’t complain about the film…

Harley Quinn Adventures You May Have Missed
Birds of Prey And the Fantabulous Emancipation of One Harley Quinn comes out on February 7. I, for one, cannot wait to see Margo Robbie return as the clown princess of crime. I’ve loved the character Harley Quinn since I first saw the episode “Mad Love” on Batman: The Animated Series. If you’re a Harley…

The Most Anticipated Science Fiction & Fantasy Shows of 2020
In a post-Endgame, post-Star Wars Saga world, I have a hole in my soul where movie anticipation used to live. I had a lot of anticipation in 2019 for the new Terminator film, X-Men: Dark Phoenix, Men in Black International, Zombieland 2, and Jumanji 3. All let me down in some way. They weren’t fails…

Movie Review – DoLittle
Charming, I think, is the best word to describe this movie. But, make no mistake, this is a movie made to appeal to young children. The plot is simplistic and the action cartoonish. You should rethink seeing this movie if you’re only in it for more Iron Man, but with a British accent. In truth,…

Unfaithful Horror Movie Adaptations
Horror movie The Turning opens January 24. Aware moviegoers may notice the connection to the Henry James novel The Turn of the Screw. However, aside from a basic premise (a nanny is terrorized by her two charges), the film has little to do with the book it’s based on. This often happens in Hollywood. Here’s…

The Trouble With Doctor Dolittle
Dolittle is Robert Downey Jr.’s first movie to be released after his triumphant turn as Iron Man in Avengers: Endgame. (C’mon, Academy. Don’t let me down. Nominate him!) Unfortunately, the trailer looks less than stellar. In fact, Hollywood doesn’t have the best record when it comes to adaptations of Hugh Lofting’s children’s book character who…

All Joker Performances — Ranked
There’s no denying that the Joker is Batman’s greatest foe. He’s appeared in every type of media there is and been brought to life by some of the biggest actors in Hollywood. But which performance was the best? Below is an attempt to answer that question in chronological order.
