Read MoreChris Pratt, Bryce Dallas Howard, and original film trio Jeff Goldblum, Laura Dern, and Sam Neill star in Jurassic World: Dominion. This film is the sixth entry in the Jurassic Park franchise and was directed by Colin Trevorrow. I had an opportunity to see this film early, and this is my spoiler-free review. Jurassic World: Dominion deals with the premise “what
Read MoreYou may be thinking that it’s a little presumptuous for a 33-year-old to be writing their memoirs. However right from the opening of this engaging read, you realize that these memoirs don’t just chronicle the life of Simu Liu but, in true Asian fashion, focus largely on his parents and grandparents. This lays a foundation for Liu’s story and honors his
Read MoreHave you ever found yourself wondering about the comics that inspired some of your favorite movies? Do you ever wish that you had some knowledge of heroes and villains prior to their arrival on screen? I have found myself in this position every single time when a new Marvel Studios or DC project comes out. My younger self would wait until
Read MoreThis past week I had the privilege to preview the first two episodes for the Ms. Marvel series premiere. Possibly the most comic-faithful adaptation Marvel has ever done, I absolutely loved it. It was so pure and so perfect that I had to pause watching only a few minutes in because my eyes were filled with tears of joy and the
Read MoreWelcome to the companion guide for Princess Leia! Fans were first introduced to Princess Leia Organa in A New Hope and she immediately became an icon that many young girls and women, including myself, look up to.

Read MoreEver since the series kicked off in 2014, Destiny has been a staple in the video game community. A series with solid and tight gameplay, and some of the most beautiful visuals you may have ever seen; there is really not much more anyone could ask for. But as the largest cherry on top of the sweetest sundae, Destiny (and its
Read MoreNetflix dropped volume one of Stranger Things season four this past Friday, after what felt like the longest period between seasons. It’s been almost three years since our last adventure in Hawkins Indiana, which seems bonkers for such a high-profile show! The delay is partially due to the ongoing pandemic, with perhaps more time also needed to properly develop the story
Read MoreThere has been a lot of talk about the Midnight Sons coming to the MCU. With supernatural horror-related characters like Blade and Moon Knight now in the MCU (and more to come soon), there is little doubt that they could meet up in a crossover down the line. Based on the comics, this crossover is probably going to be the Midnight
Read MoreThe CW is going through some huge changes after the Warner Brothers and Discovery merger. I knew some changes were bound to happen over at the movie studio, however not once did I expect it to leak over onto CW shows. Since its launch in September of 2006, The CW provided consistent nerdy television, easily accessible to geeks like me who
Read MoreSMarvel Studios’ Doctor Strange brought us into Kamar-Taj and established the mantle of the Sorcerer Supreme. This sorcerer is meant to be the most skilled magic wielder, tasked with defending the Earth against the likes of Dormammu and other interdimensional beings.
