Most of you have probably heard of this series. Nickelodeon made an adaptation of the first three books into a movie back in 2004, starring Jim Carrey as Count Olaf and in 2017, Netflix released their 3-season adaptation of the books (which I watched when it came out, and it was a pretty faithful adaptation...

House of David is a show on Amazon Prime that's yet another adaptation of the story of King David. It's a multi-season TV show with Season 2 out now and overall, a lot of Christians really like the show (though there have been some who strongly disliked it). It has high audience and critic scores... Continue Reading →
Picking up our roast of Surah 2, we need to talk about 2:83-86. When I got to this point in Al-Baqarah, I was somewhat shocked at just how blatantly anti-Jew it was. It provides a justification for why Muslims should hate the Jews that isn't valid at all when you have a Biblical worldview. However,... Continue Reading →
Finally, over a year after I read this epic, I'm talking about it on the blog. Let's give three cheers for procrastination!

From the behind the scenes footage, some parts of it looked really good and after reading the books, I was expecting a good fantasy show and was waiting with... Continue Reading →

Paradise Lost by John Milton is one of the greatest works in the English Language due to its interactive structure, theological exploration, magnificent storytelling, and lasting influence on literature and media. In fact, this book even had great influence on Mary Shelley's Frankenstein (my review of which I'll repost tomorrow). It's a retelling of the... Continue Reading →
Hamlet: a play that - if you had a good education - you were forced to read in high school or had to act in if you were in theater. Nowadays, some schools are banning this book for a variety of reasons, including the heavy themes explored throughout it. Of course, this is stupid, because... Continue Reading →
One of the questions I think is being asked the most in the world of fantasy is: "Why does so much of it suck nowadays?" If it's not the same, formulaic plots and tropes we've gotten a million times before, it's just the most depraved smut you've ever read all aimed at women. What gives?... Continue Reading →
