Mostly Harmless by Douglas Adams

14 November 201914 November 2019 adminBooks

Ok, I know I’ve read Mostly Harmless before, but I must admit I recalled absolutely nothing reading it the second time around. I don’t know if it’s a good thing, or a bad thing, but[…]

Marvel’s Jessica Jones, season 3

14 November 201914 November 2019 adminTelevision

So I decided to backtrack a little and watch the final season of Marvel’s Jessica Jones before moving on to my N’s. Since it was over I thought, why not get it over with instead[…]

The Hitchhiker’s Guide to the Galaxy: The Trilogy of Four by Douglas Adams

7 November 20197 November 2019 adminBooks

More than sixteen years have passed since I first read The Hitchhiker’s Guide to the Galaxy, and I would say that’s a pretty good timeframe for picking up a book for a second go round.[…]

Early Riser by Jasper Fforde

17 October 201917 October 2019 adminBooks

Picture this: climate change is real, and humanity is forever affected by it. But instead of retreating ice caps, the reverse is reality – winters are deep, dark and dangerous, with temperatures plummeting to -40C[…]

Manuscript Found in a Milkbottle by Neil Gaiman

3 October 20193 October 2019 adminBooks

Neil Gaiman may consider this to be one of the worst stories he’s ever written, but I admit I quite enjoyed the little story that is Manuscript Found in a Milkbottle. James Pond uncovers something[…]

Galápagos by Kurt Vonnegut

2 October 20193 October 2019 adminBooks

Sometimes I wonder if science fiction writers really can see into the future. And by the future I don’t necessarily mean the technological side of things. Flying cars aren’t exactly commonplace after all. But Kurt[…]

Men in Black: International (2019)

24 September 201926 September 2019 adminMovies

What is Men in Black: International without Will Smith and Tommy Lee Jones? Not too shabby, to my surprise. Maybe it helps that we have a little eye candy in the form of Chris Hemsworth,[…]

William Shakespeare’s The Force Doth Awaken Star Wars part the Seventh by Ian Doescher

4 June 20197 June 2019 adminBooks

I gotta say, Ian Doescher’s William Shakespeare’s Star Wars series gets better and better with each new publication and The Force Doth Awaken is a great example of how Doescher has used each book as[…]

Flow My Tears, the Policeman Said by Philip K Dick

23 May 201923 May 2019 adminBooks

There’s something fun about reading classic sci-fi, and by classic I mean anything written before the era of the Internet or wi-fi or smartphones or digital this and that. Published in 1974 and set in[…]

Ghastly Beyond Belief by Neil Gaiman & Kim Newman

4 May 20194 May 2019 adminBooks

So one would expect that a collection of science fiction quotes from books and movies would yield a few precious gems for my quote book. But, apparently, it did not. Ghastly Beyond Belief is a[…]

Marvel’s Agent Carter, season 1-2

27 April 201930 April 2019 adminTelevision

I was wondering if I would enjoy a Marvel’s live action series that took place in the 1940s, which is roughly when Marvel Comics actually came into being. And you know what? I actually did.[…]

Marvel’s The Defenders (season 1)

24 April 201924 April 2019 adminTelevision

It’s kinda sad that there was only one coming together series of the four NYC Marvel’s heroes in the form of The Defenders. I really enjoyed watching the discovery of and interaction between the four[…]

Marvel’s Luke Cage, season 1-2

13 April 201915 April 2019 adminTelevision

Gosh it took me forever to finish Marvel’s Luke Cage. At least, it certainly felt like it took forever. Admittedly, the series moves a lot slower to its other live-action counterparts, but it certainly has[…]

The Familiar volume 2: Into the Forest by Mark Z Danielewski

31 March 20199 April 2019 adminBooks

The Familiar volume 2: Into the Forest pretty much continues where volume 1 left off, with Xander rescuing the kitten and me not quite remembering where the rest of the story was heading. The same[…]

Stardust (2007)

8 February 20198 February 2019 adminMovies

This was my second time watching Stardust – the first being on the big screen when it first came out – and I must admit I enjoyed it a lot better the second time around.[…]

Marvel’s Jessica Jones, season 1-2

8 February 20198 February 2019 adminTelevision

Marvel’s Jessica Jones has a distinct detective film noir vibe taking place in the modern world. From the music to the narration, the way the scenes are filmed, and even Jessica’s alcoholism, pays tribute to[…]

Marvel’s Iron Fist, season 1-2

11 January 201911 January 2019 adminTelevision

Well that’s the end of yet another Marvel’s series cancelled involving, well, everyone involved in The Defenders. I mean, I was so sure Daredevil was coming back having completed it so recently. The speculation is[…]

Marvel’s Daredevil, season 1-3

27 December 201827 December 2018 adminTelevision

It was interesting watching Marvel’s Daredevil so soon after Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D. Both series are very different animals, even if they occupy the same Marvel-verse. They don’t overlap, so far as I can tell, and[…]

Marvel’s Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D., season 2-5

26 November 2018 adminTelevision

It’s been a long while since I last watched Marvel’s Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D., and damn if it doesn’t slam you straight into the thick of it. Truth be told I was wondering why I bothered[…]

Ant-Man (2015)

17 November 201818 November 2018 adminMovies

I admit, the main reason I wanted to watch Ant-Men wasn’t because of the whole Avengers arc. It was Paul Rudd, who is still fly and has managed to remain such a hottie ever since[…]

Deadpool 2 (2018)

17 November 201818 November 2018 adminMovies

You really can’t fault Deadpool 2 for taking the mickey out of movies while being wholeheartedly in it. And, well, he kinda gets his wish doesn’t he? Still pretty funny in that Deadpool kinda way.[…]
