Been a while. I've been pre-occupied with developing a fan-made expansion for an old board game from the late 70s, and still am. I'll eventually get around to posting more on that topic when it's closer to being finished. But anyway, reviews for some films that aren't in theaters. The first review is going to … Continue reading American Pie and The Killing Joke; dual R-rated reviews

Star Wars: Rogue One review and comparison to The Force Awakens
Rogue One Rated: 4/5 Rebellions are built on hope. So, after seeing that optimistic upbeat Rogue One image above, let's talk about The Force Awakens. That movie, honestly, wasn't as great as people are making it out to be. They're just excited that it's made better than at least two of the films in the … Continue reading Star Wars: Rogue One review and comparison to The Force Awakens
Moana Review
Rated: 3/5 This movie is like Zootopia. The first 20 minutes is full of nothing but Disneyfied "I wanna live my dream, but my parent/parental figure says no" bullshit that we've seen hundreds of times in hundreds of other Disney movies. "I wanna go out into the vast ocean because of my dreams and curiosity!" … Continue reading Moana Review
Sully review
Rating: 3/5 To get into the spirit of this Clint Eastwood directed film, it helps to be familiar with 3 previous films of his. Unforgiven. Flags of our Fathers. American Sniper. All of them have a central theme similar to the one in this film, the difference being this film is more optimistic in its … Continue reading Sully review
The Passion of the Christ Review
Rated: 4/5 Introduction When dealing with a subject matter like this it is important to draw a line at some point in what should and should not be shown. The Passion of the Christ doesn't just cross said line, it completely ignores the existence and for a good hour the audience is subjected to horrifying … Continue reading The Passion of the Christ Review
Hacksaw Ridge, Arrival, double feature review.
I've been drained of energy lately. The election has me all depressed. It's not who won that has me depressed, it's seeing all the reactions to who won that's got me depressed. Every single goddamn talk show is spewing bitchiness, bitterness, and hatred over the winner. People are rioting in the streets. Not that many … Continue reading Hacksaw Ridge, Arrival, double feature review.
Team America, and a rant about the post-election.
Rated: 4/5 "See, there's three kinds of people: dicks, pussies, and assholes. Pussies think everyone can get along, and dicks just want to fuck all the time without thinking it through. But then you got your assholes, Chuck. And all the assholes want us to shit all over everything! So, pussies may get mad at … Continue reading Team America, and a rant about the post-election.
Halloween (1978) Review
Rated: 3/5 Sorry, no new releases this week (wanted to watch and review The Accountant, but circumstances kept me either occupied or at home). So I'll review this old classic, while making a brief comparison to the Rob Zombie remake. I wish I had you all alone. Just the two of us. So first question. … Continue reading Halloween (1978) Review
Shin Godzilla (Resurgence) Review
Source (and no there aren't any EVAs in this movie) Rating: 3/5 I knew there was something wrong with Godzilla's frikkin face when I first saw the trailer. And now I've figured it out. Source He's a fuckface, which any hardcore Godzilla fan knows. First of all, his face is fucked up, as if … Continue reading Shin Godzilla (Resurgence) Review
Deepwater Horizon Review
Rated: 3/5 I don't have anything off the top of my head, so I'll just type and babble and ramble and see what comes of it. The movie is a disaster film that isn't as good as Dante's Peak, but not as bad as Volcano or San Andreas (yeah, I didn't care for the latter, … Continue reading Deepwater Horizon Review
