One of the biggest movies that is supposed to come out this year is Christopher Nolan's adaptation of The Odessey, the classic Greek epic that we (hopefully) all had to read in middle/high school. Unfortunately, however, the trailer for this is already making me want to hate watch the movie because it already looks terrible.... Continue Reading →
Review: BBC Adaptations of Jane Austen are Everywhere.
By everywhere, I mean that they range from being amazing, super period accurate, and (for the most part) true to the book, or they are cringe and almost unwatchable. When I was on winter break back in December, Mom and I decided that it was a good time to binge watch the BBC adaptations of... Continue Reading →
Review: The Anaconda Remake…the Heck did I Just Watch? (Spoilers)
For those of you who didn't know, the 1997 movie Anaconda got a reboot last year starring Jack Black and Paul Rudd. Why this was necessary given the hilarious absurdity of the original movie, I don't know, but it's a thing. It's obviously supposed to be a comedy paying homage to the original by making...

Review: The Space Trilogy is an Interesting Look at How Temptation Works…(Spoilers)
Maybe I'm writing this a little prematurely since I'm only halfway through C.S. Lewis' Space Trilogy, but I needed something to write about this week, so here we are. For those of you who didn't know, The Space Trilogy is a series that C.S. Lewis wrote after coming to an agreement with Tolkien that science... Continue Reading →
Blog/Review: Contemporary Stories are Failing Kids (And Adults)
One of the little-known facts about J.R.R. Tolkien was that he absolutely despised Disney. So great was his hatred of Disney that he described it as "vulgar," said that Walt Disney was "a cheat," and even said that, at times, the animation gave him nausea. The reason for this wasn't because he had an arbitrary... Continue Reading →
Review: The Pendragon Cycle is a Terrible Show – Season Finale Review
Finally, the confusing slog that was The Pendragon Cycle is over...and I have so many questions. Overall, the visuals, music, and a few of the performances were good, but everything else was crap. I don't want to waste too much time on the intro, so let's just jump in. As I've said throughout my reviews... Continue Reading →
Review: The Pendragon Cycle Episode 6 – Brett Cooper Finally Makes an Appearance.
Last week, I didn't review The Pendragon Cycle because it felt like I was beating a dead horse every week. So, I took a break and said that I would return to this series if Brett Cooper made an appearance that lasted longer than 5 seconds or the show ended. Guess which one came first....

Review: I’ve Concluded that Herman Hess was Probably a Weird Dude – Siddhartha (Spoilers)
Welp, I need a break from writing reviews about The Pendragon Cycle. It's been five episodes and things are hardly getting better, so to keep writing reviews of each episode will pretty much be me repeating the well-established fact that it suffers from terrible pacing and incompetent writing. I will return to it either when... Continue Reading →
Review: The Pendragon Cycle Episode 4 – What’s Happening? (Spoilers)
Continuing with our honest review of Dailywire's The Pendragon Cycle, Episode 4 was surprisingly tolerable, being the most logically paced episode out of the ones I've seen so far. Does that mean that it's necessarily good? No, as it suffers from the past three episodes' terrible pacing. You still have only a vague idea of... Continue Reading →
Review: The Pendragon Cycle Episode 3…This is a Hot Mess (Spoilers)
Last week, I started reviewing the Dailywire's adaptation of The Pendragon Cycle and said that my review of the show was going to be similar to my reviews of Amazon's Rings of Power. That means that every time a new episode comes out, I will review the episode to see if the show is getting... Continue Reading →
