Star Trek Beyond [Movie Review]

I've been mulling over what words to start this post with... and I've finally decided.

"Space, the final frontier. These are the voyages of the starship Enterprise. Her five-year mission: to explore strange new worlds, to seek out new life and new civilizations, to boldly go where no one has gone before."
- Kirk speaking the Captain's Oath at the end of Star Trek into Darkness.

Gods of Egypt [Movie Review]

I had to see this movie. It was panned so badly, and it looked so flashy, that there was choice - I had to see it. And you know what... it was not actually as terrible as the critics claimed.

Star Wars The Force Awakens [Movie Review]

I have already seen this movie twice.
Twice, in less than 24 hours.

Yep.

Spectre [Movie Review]

A few days ago I saw the newest Bond movie.
I have a few opinions on it.

The Last Witch Hunter [Movie Review]

Some movies are just fun to watch.
They are not brilliant, and they might not even really be good... per se.
But they can be fun, and that is what this movie is. Fun.

Star Wars Aftermath [Book Review]

So there is a new Star Wars novel out, one that is meant to fill some of the gap between Return of the Jedi and The Force Awakens. The novel is called Aftermath. 

Maze Runner: The Scorch Trials [Movie Review]

I have certainly been slow on my reviews, but with new movies its hard to pass up the chance to talk about them. Especially science fiction movies...

Firefight [Book Review]

 

You've possibly been wondering what happened to the last few updates. Well... I had a change in schedule, and it has wrecked havoc on me. I did manage a few hours to finish off this book... thankfully.

Steelheart [Book Review]

I know, a mid week update. Those have been rare. However I could not wait to actually write my review for this book. Could not wait. No Friday review for this book, but perhaps Friday will involve more super heroes.

Ant-Man [Movie Review]

So I went and saw the Marvel movie I had the lowest expectations for since Captain America (I had my doubts, and I never saw it in theaters. Those doubts turned out to be unfounded.). I'm not including The Incredible Hulk in this list, because I did not see the Hulk until recently, and it was just awful... and barely a part of the MCU. It does not have Mark Ruffalo, so it is not really the Hulk to me.

Terminator: Genisys [Movie Review]

Second series reboot movie in a row!
This time for a series that I honestly have always enjoyed more than the Jurassic series.
The Terminator and Terminator: Judgment Day are classic science fiction movies by James Cameron. The later films are not as good, but not that bad either.

Star Wars Rebels - The Siege of Lothal [TV Review]

Since Star Wars Celebration Anaheim back in April I've been looking forward to the summer mini movie for season two of Star Wars Rebels and at long last, it is here.
So lets talk about it.

Jurassic World [Movie Review]

I stand confused, and amused.
This year has so many franchise reboots that, as a film nerd, I am both giddy and apprehensive about.
This will either be a lot of fun, or a lot of sadness.

Avengers 2 Age of Ultron [Movie Review]

I've been talking about it in my past few reviews, and here it is at last. It is (was) the First of May, and I'm not talking about The Song, but the day that Avengers 2 Age of Ultron was released in theaters.

Star Wars A New Dawn [Book Review]

It has been years, probably even more than a decade, since I've read a book based on a series from another format. I used to devour Star Trek novels, Battletech Novels, Star Wars, and others... but it has been years.

Bloodborne [PS4]

 I've got to learn to not buy into the hype around video games. I almost got sucked into buying The Order 1886, which admittedly I'm still interested in but I'll wait until I can get it for maybe $20. Instead I moved my preorder over to Bloodborne. 

Star Wars Rebels - Season Finale [TV Review]

Rebels is the first new series set in the Star Wars universe since Clone Wars.
Like Clone Wars, it is an animated series, this time produced under Disney after their acquisition of Lucas Arts. Now, if you have not been watching it... 

Kingsman: The Secret Service [Movie Review]

Two weekends and three movies... and they raised the damn ticket prices on me for this last one. I assume they went up because of that other movie that is coming out, or something. Sure it was only 2% but it still sucks. Oh, back to what I was saying. Three movies in two weeks, or more like eight days, and Kingsman was by far the best.    

Seventh Son [Movie Review]

A rare weekend this was. I saw two films, one I expected to be better and one worse. Jupiter Ascending, I expected to be better, when in fact it was the worst. Seventh Son, I thought would be passable, but not the better of the two. I was wrong.  

Jupiter Ascending [Movie Review]

There is a phrase I read from some entertainment review a while back. It has stuck with me all this time... but it seems perfectly accurate for this film. This film was a 'blunderbuss phenomenological attack.' (Niel Gabler, LA Times)
