Movie Review – Kingdom of the Planet of the Apes
—
Kingdom of the Planet of the Apes was a great start to what I’m hoping will be at least a trilogy. I’m absolutely enamored with these movies. I miss Caesar but they’ve done a great job of bringing the new ape characters to life. You develop feelings for them very quickly. There is a great deal of humor…

3 Body Problem—Season 1 review
—
I’m not disappointed, considering the amount of material the creators had to pack into less than 8 hours of screen time, when it took Tencent closer to 30 hours to accomplish the same thing in the Chinese version. And season 1 of Netflix’s 3 Body Problem includes material that happens in the next book. Casting…

Movie Review – Godzilla x Kong: The New Empire
—
I’m a big fan of the Monsterverse. I have enjoyed all of them, usually more than I expected. But this is probably the worst of all of the Monsterverse movies so far. I’m not saying it was bad. But I just didn’t feel the awesome that all of the other movies somehow managed to capture here…

TED-Ed: Why should you read “Dune” by Frank Herbert
—
Dune is oftentimes mentioned as one of the greatest works of science fiction. I tend to disagree. It clearly deserves to sit on the shelf with the greatest literary works, but Dune isn’t science fiction. People commonly use the genre science fiction as a catchall for any story that takes place in the future, or…

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 – Madame Web
—
Obviously, no one involved with making this movie can see into the future. If they could, they wouldn’t have made this movie. It would have been more fitting to make this an animated movie aimed toward eight-year-olds. Sorry, not to insult eight-year-olds, but this is the level of maturity this movie contains.
