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…

Jill’s Top Ten Movies of 2019
Here’s RunPee Jilly’s list of top ten favorite films of 2019. Keep in mind that my favorite films may not be ranked the highest as per movie grade. As RunPee Dan says about Uncut Gems, “A film might be graded an A and you still hated watching it.” That’s why I don’t have Rocketman or…

Willow Revival added to Disney+ line up (And Top 15 Willow Movie Quotes)
Disney Plus recently announced a new TV show based on Ron Howard’s 1988 flick Willow — the goofy yet sentimental pre-Lord of the Rings Lucasfilm fantasy starring Warwick Davis and Val Kilmer. The announcement is here. I‘m cool with a Willow revival. Especially if they get Davis back on board. He and his son Harrison…

RunPee – Our 2109 Movie Review Rankings (and who was stuck with the worst films!)
$2,797,800,564 world wide. You can buy a lot of Infinity Peecoins with that. 2019 closed out a decade of movies, not so much with a bang, but with a snap. Avengers: Endgame was a tour de force that culminated a decade defined, both culturally and monetarily, by the Marvel Cinematic Universe (MCU). Between 2010 and 2019…

Star Wars – Top Seven Reasons to Watch The Mandalorian Now (No spoilers)
If you’re a Star Wars fan burned by uneven movies in the franchise, you should enjoy The Mandalorian. Available only on the Disney+ premium channel, these short but extremely competent episodes in the Star Wars lexicon need to be seen and savored.

Movie Review – Star Wars – Rise of Skywalker (spoiler free)
So. It’s done. After 42 years of buildup, the Star Wars Skywalker saga is over. I liked it! But I didn’t LOVE it. Which is okay, as all I wanted for Christmas was for Rise of Skywalker to not suck. So I can happily say that Director JJ Abrams did his best to undo the…

What is the best all-time series franchise?

So many movie franchises, so little time. While it’s easy for producers to add yet another movie to any long-running series, it’s not so easy to have every one of them qualify as good, quality films. And in some series, all are decent, but none are outstanding. How to decide who gets the top spot…

Golden Man’s Movie Review – Jojo Rabbit
Although I’m a fan of director Taika Waititi, the first trailer for Jojo Rabbit didn’t inspire much confidence. The scene of an imaginary Hitler comforting a ten-year-old boy fell pretty flat. Waititi isn’t the first person to mine World War II for laughs. Charlie Chaplin, Mel Brooks, and the TV show Hogan’s Heroes have made…

Movie Review – Gemini Man

Nothing amazing, nothing awful. This is a stylish little film where every actor gives it their all and makes a nice 2 hour action excursion. Here’s a Pro-Tip for audiences: wait for this to come out on streaming. While old and young Will Smith both look great ( I suspect they aged up one…
