MCU Disney+ Review – What If…?
Believe it or believe it not, the stuff that gets written here does have the semblance of a plan about it. Despite being spread half way around the world and separated by several time zones we do take the opportunity to chat whenever we can. And we do manage to talk about things other than…

Best of British Biographies – Gary Oldman
Throughout this series of Best of Brit articles, there has been a relatively common theme; a lot of the people I’ve spoken about have spent some of their earlier years in one of the renowned theatrical training grounds such as the RSC, the National, or RADA. This chap is a bit different in that he…

Movie Review – Hotel Transylvania 4: Transformania
A solid B movie in terms of animation values, high-quality celebrity voices, low-key warm humor, and a fun direction the plot spins off into.

Sing 2 is an ADORABLE movie with spectacular song and dance numbers, great animation, and a lot of heart and humor. The story is a fine follow-up to the lives of the animals well-loved from the original, with some cameos of minor roles in the first few minutes…so try not to be late. Where Sing 2 falls down…

Christmas Classic Rewatch Review – Die Hard 2
—
Time, it’s a bugger, isn’t it. Die Hard 2 came out about five years ago… in 1990! After a sit down with a nice hot cup of tea and a biscuit, nothing too exciting… a rich tea or a plain digestive, it does dawn on you that it’s now over thirty years old. When we…

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…
