In Fallout, It's Wild and Wooly. A Review from a Non-Gamer's Perspective.
Streaming on Amazon Prime
Fans of post-apocalyptic narratives don’t really need a primer to enjoy Fallout. Everything gets explained during the course of eight episodes and folks can either binge or pace it out for the next two months. After its explosive debut last week, I’m hooked and love the undead cowboy who must have read a lot of Jonah Hex comic books. At first, I thought it was set during…

When The First Omen is not the Last Omen for a Restart of an Old Franchise Favourite
#TheFirstOmen introduces one unique challenge to the franchise, and hopefully there'll be more! In the meanwhile, here's my #moviereview of this #horror redefining work!
There’s more than one terror afoot in The First Omen and nobody should be surprised that something new is added to continue this franchise. Back when it all started, writer David Seltzer and director Richard Donner may have had only two ideas in mind: Satanism was on the rise and cults existed at places few communities least expected. This film arrived before the book Michelle Remembers was…

Star Trek Lower Decks is Beaming to Home Video For Those Slow To Catch Up
While some animation fans are eager for more #startrek Lower Decks season 5 to air soon, we can all binge offline with season 4 on this #homevideo release. Info at:
Available to preoder on Amazon USA
Streaming on Paramount Plus and Coming to Home Video on April 16, 2024
Although I wasn’t fully hooked on Star Trek Lower Decks right away, it’s found a place in my viewing schedule after seeing the Strange New Worlds episode, “Those Old Scientists.” To see the Jack Quaid reprise the role in live action was enough to earn my respect for the sci-fi comedy.

Celebrating Ennio Morricone and His Contributions to Orchestral Music in Cinema
Now avaiable to view on #vod is a wonderful #documentary about Ennio Morricon. You'll know him best for composing the soundtrack to The Untouchables. Review at:
Now Available on VOD
Ennio Morricone is a musical genius and at long last, the self-titled documentary that’s been hitting film festivals is available to view at home. This composer is well known for Fistful of Dollars and many other classic Westerns, and to list everything else he’s done would be a separate article in itself! His signature would define the sonic landscape of music in this genre…

When a Movie Titled, “With Love and a Major Organ” is Constantly Beating, Who Can Stop Me Now?
Coming to theatres in #Canada this week is the wonderful #independentfilm With Love and a Major Organ. It's not just another #romcom #sciencefiction #drama. #moviereview at:
Playing at select movie theatres in Canada.
When machines are being used to tell people how to manage the everyday in the the sublime and thoughtful science fiction drama With Love and a Major Organ, sometimes that individual can’t get to live the life the way they want. It’s a problem today’s society may well face if social media platforms and AI get their way. If there are issues to be found,…

When The Blood Has Dried in this Mad Cave Studios Comic Book Release
If you love #fantasy, spaghetti #westerns and @MadCaveStudios, then you'll want to check out this week's #comicbook release of When The Blood Has Dried! review at:
Mad Cave Studios
Release Date: April 10, 2024
Spoiler Alert
When Meabh wants to leave the Adventurer’s Guild, not everyone from that club is happy. In the opening pages, what’s suggested is that there’s only one person who is sympathetic. And when the tale picks up some years later in the comic book, When The Blood Has Dried, it seems the others are not happy and want to take her down. The reason…

If you're a #ttrpg #rpg or even a #minipainter, then you'll love that #seattle's Lethal Shadows Productions has a new product line to explore! #dnd fans will be excited! #interview with Patrick Ramey at:
Lethal Shadows Productions is a producer of many role playing game style goods, and they have a bit of everything for the discerning player.

The difference lays in not producing a huge set of a…

Emerald City Comic Con 2024. It's Great To Be Back!
There's lots to do at this year's Emerald City Comic Con. Despite some repeat guests and lack of industry exhibitors, it was still a great time! #ECCC #fandom #pacificnorthwest #convention report at:
Emerald City Comic Con certainly exploded in size since 2019. Instead of occupying one building and a quarter during the time I last attended, it’s a full building and a half! I’ve heard stories about last year’s and am glad I didn’t go. Folks had problems navigating around and getting used to the new space. And although the pandemic caused this event to lose momentum back in 2020, it continued…

When X-Men 97 Forgets What Made the Original Tales Special, Is This Animated Series Worth Watching?
Not everyone will be enjoying #xmen97 as the storylines aren't as perfect as the original works they hail from. After four episodes, I have my verdict in this #animation series #review.
Spoiler Alert
The rebranded version of X-Men the Animated Series off to a rocky start. Although I enjoyed the first two episodes of X-Men 97, the next pair were not as good. After seeing how the Inferno storyline got compressed and spat out, it seems nobody in the writers’ room really understands the key moments that define that story arc.
In the original tale, S’ym and N’astirh plan to invade…

A Cat's Life Isn't For Everyone, But You'll Purr at This One
There's something to coo at with A Cat's Life now playing on Apple TV. #petlovers will enjoy this film about a #tomcat and young girl learning how to adapt. #moviewreview at
Available to view on Apple TV
A Cat’s Life is a German made film finally making its way to screenings in other countries. It’s an adaptation of the novel “Rrou” by Maurice Genevoix and is nothing like Illumination’s The Secret Life of Pets (movie review). That’s because this story looks at what defines those relationships between animal and humankind. In this case, it’s about how Lou (as named by…

Godzilla x Kong The New Empire, A Review and Thoughts the Monsterverse's Future
#GodzillaXKong may seem all over with the three stories going on, and what I offer in my review includes thoughts for this #monsterverse future and it's not necessarily another #WWE cage match!
Godzilla x Kong The New Empire isn’t the best followup to a new set of films about these two titans begrudgingly working together. That’s because I’ve seen half the ideas before. The one about Kong exploring Hollow Earth and earning his place in ape society is to be expected. Elsewhere, when the trailers show Godzilla aware an unknown threat is coming, he’ll have to power up in order to defeat…
