Jurassic Park Ride Goes Extinct
I got to return to the CA Universal’s Jurassic Park ride this summer, before it closed, not knowing it was on its way out. The ride, yes, felt old and needed refreshing (many of the dinosaurs weren’t moving anymore), but it was still a joyous experience. I even wrote it up on RunPee. I guess I…

Dinosaurs and Mead in San Diego: Bronto Brewery

Every Stan Lee Cameo in the Marvel Cinematic Universe
We all know about Stan Lee. He’s one of the big name co-creators of Marvel Comics, is a co-producer and co-writer for the movies, and seems to be a little bit nuts. He’s been inducted into the Sci-Fi & Fantasy Hall of Fame. He’s also, in one way or another, in every Marvel Cinematic Universe…

Movie Review – Avengers Infinity War – An Unrivaled Marvel Epic
I have to hand it to the MCU creative team. They delivered an epic. Step back and think about that for a second. The lead up to this movie was 10 years in the making; it has a cast of characters that sprawls for pages, yet we know every one of them better than we…

Movie Review – Love, Simon
—
What a great little film. This was like a John Hughes classic from the 1970s, updated for our era of cell phones and Facebook, featuring a coming out plot that’s worthy of the premise. The actors, the soundtrack, the goofy high school hijinks and wonderfully iconic scenes…it added up to a fantastic nostalgia trip that…

Movie Review – Black Panther – One Incredible Party
Opening night at Black Panther was an all-out celebration. All six showings at my cinema were sold out, and showings continued to sell out through the weekend. But the audience was ecstatic at my premier, completely into the event, dressed in traditional African attire, laughing, cheering, applauding, hooting, and having a killer time. It makes me…
