Fantastic Fest 2023 Reviews: ‘What You Wish For’ and ‘Your Lucky Day’

John Dotson ,  5 min read

Despite being different film subgenres, Your Lucky Day and What You Wish For are surprisingly similar. The two movies boast fantastic performers from Angus Cloud and Nick Stahl. Although Angus Cloud has passed away, his performance in the film is still a captivating force. Stahl, like Cloud, has also faced struggles, but his performance in What You Wish For may mark the beginning of a comeback for the underappreciated actor. Both

The limited series follows Elizabeth Zott, a would-be chemist in 1950s America, as she navigates the challenges that come with being a woman scientist in both her professional and personal lives.

‘Hidden Through Time 2: Myths and Magic’ Game Review: A Hidden Gem of its Own

Anthony Flagg ,  ,  ,  ,  ,  6 min read

Now that we are in fall (unless you’re in Texas like me) it’s time to pull out the cozy blankets, mugs of hot chocolate, and slippers. But what is comfort if not pure relaxation? So that’s typically when you dig into the cupboard and find a great board game, Lego set, or a 200+ piece puzzle. For me, it’s the best

Review:  Roald Dahl’s ‘The Wonderful Story of Henry Sugar’

Brian Kitson ,  ,  ,  8 min read

For those who read my Matilda: The Musical review from back in December, you may recall that the works of Roald Dahl were formative in my younger years. I remember being in first or second grade and choosing the box set of his most popular novels as my monthly reward for being an excellent student. Tearing through those books was a

‘Our Flag Means Death’ Season 2 Review: Romance is Back With A Vengeance

Izzy Friedman ,  ,  7 min read

After over a year of waiting, Our Flag Means Death (Created by David Jenkins) has finally returned to us. The wait has been long, but certainly worth it. The crew of the Revenge are back and… Well, they’re not better than ever. They are actually pretty sad. Last season left us with endless questions and plenty of heartbreak. Let’s find out if

Fantastic Fest 2023: ‘Dream Scenario’ Review

John Dotson ,  ,  5 min read

In the present era, popularity has taken a unique shape. Platforms like TikTok have enabled short and meaningless videos to thrust someone into unexpected stardom. Dream Scenario, starring Nicolas Cage, examines the contemporary idea of fame and how it can be a delicate issue in the public eye, even for something trivial. The movie cleverly utilizes satire to communicate its message,

‘Gen V’ Review: A+ for the First Session of ‘The Boys’ Spinoff

Anthony Flagg ,  ,  ,  6 min read

Prime Video is well aware of its huge success with The Boys series, and Gen V is proof that they don’t intend to forget that. What seems like, from the outside, gratuitous material to further the brand, the series instead inserts a horrifically accurate view of our modern societies. Equally, the subplots will make lasting changes to the landscape of Vought

‘The Creator’ Review: A Perfect Audio-visual Experience With An Imperfect Story

James Preston Poole ,  ,  8 min read

Approaching a Fall/Winter movie season full of promising films, one has stuck out a surprising outlier: Gareth Edwards’ The Creator. The filmmaker burst onto the scene with his debut Monsters, displaying comfortability in playing with human perspective against large-scale threats. He then parlayed that into 2014’s excellent Godzilla, which then catapulted him into 2016’s divisive Rogue One: A Star Wars Story.

If there’s one thing you should know about me, it is that I am one of the biggest Ant-Man fans around!* I absolutely adore all of his films and appearances and Scott Lang’s everyman approach to the Marvel Cinematic Universe has always been a big appeal to his character for me. (along with being played by the loveable Paul Rudd). Naturally, I

I know fans are eagerly awaiting for things to get moving once again at Marvel Studios, once the SAG strike draws to a close. Before the strikes began, Marvel had both live-action projects and animated series at various stages of development, and we’ve been sitting on some information about Marvel animation projects specifically for a little while now.
