This time of year, in the lead-up to Easter (aka Lent), I always seem to hear about The Prince of Egypt. I'd never seen the 1998...

I've consumed almost no Anime, meaning specifically Japanese animation. Anime has long included shows targeted at adults instead of just...

There are a lot of gangster movies and TV shows out there. Most are set here in the USA, where both real-life mobsters (like Al Capone)...

Lord of the Rings, a favorite topic of mine, is making news again. For that we can thank Amazon and its new series, which finally has a...

One of our son's favorite things, for some time now but the last few months especially, is Thomas the Tank Engine. I'll admit that I'm...

At this point the Beatles rooftop concert is the stuff of legend. Naturally my first exposure to that day was the Simpsons mimicry during...

Earlier this week I stumbled upon Apollo 13 (1995) on YouTubeTV while looking for something to just have on. I planned to be doing other...

I intended to write this before the film came out. Alas, whatever, it wasn't meant to be. I've been a fan of Dune since first reading the...

Probably my favorite plot arc of the entire MCU is the development of Bucky Barnes. Captain America has been my favorite Avenger since...

There aren't many pop culture characters bigger than Batman and Darth Vader. Even if one's an all-time villain and the other the greatest...
