Is there anything extra during the end credits of Spider-Man: No Way Home?
There are extras during the end credits of Spider-Man: No Way Home. There are two extra scenes. The first begins about 2 1/2 minutes into the credits and lasts about 1 1/2 minutes. There’s a 7-minute wait until the second extra scene comes after the end credits. It’s honestly not an extra scene but more of…

Movie Review – Spider-Man: No Way Home
—
When I read about the multiverse plot for Spider-Man: No Way Home I thought it would either be awesome, or horrible. I was hugely relieved to see that they landed closer to the side of awesome. The writers—Chris McKenna and Erik Sommers—both wrote the previous two Spider-Man movies together, so fortunately No Way Home maintains the…

Movie Review – Don’t Look Up
—
This was an A+ movie at all levels: acting, directing, story, message, humor, cinematography, wardrobe… Okay, maybe not wardrobe. But still: A+ In case you didn’t already know, Don’t Look Up is a satire on the USA’s reaction to climate change, but they replaced the climate crisis with a comet. What stands out most for me is…

Movie Review – Dune From A Dune Virgin
To hear all the kerfuffle going on you’d assume that what was coming was something akin to a new branch of the Star Wars mythology, an interim MCU phase, or a new found Tolkien saga. Instead, what we have is a film of an, allegedly, unfilmable novel… actually, series of novels if the franchise takes…

Ghostbusters 3: Afterlife – An Original Cast Ghostbusters Teaser Trailer
I’m on board for the upcoming Ghostbusters: Afterlife. Also, it might make me rewatch Ghostbusters 2. MAYBE. Not sure I can stomach it — number 2 was that bad. But really, this is the time to pull this series out of the dust bin, since most of the main players are still at large and…

Movie Review – Dune
I’ve read the Dune series more times than I remember. And I’ve seen every video adaption made, numerous times. I can come close to quoting the character’s dialog line-for-line. Therefore, I can only review the movie from the standpoint of a fan. I realize most people who see the movie haven’t read the books, and…

Dune Cast Q&A with Stephen Colbert
—
If you’re looking forward to seeing Denis Villeneuve’s DUNE then this is a must-watch video. The uber-geek Stephen Colbert does a fantastic job interviewing the cast/crew of this epic movie. By the way, if you’re confused about the pronunciation of Villeneuve’s name it’s: Vill-en-oo. Sort of like saying, “Villain-oo”. 🙂

Movie Review – Venom: Let There Be Carnage
—
I’ve been looking forward to this movie since the first one ended. That anticipation grew by an order of magnitude when I learned Woody Harrison would be the villain in Venom: Let There Be Carnage. But recently, when I learned Venom: Carnage had a 90-minute runtime I grew concerned. I knew there would be a…
