This week, I played a lot of Kingdom Hearts, and finally got around to watching an Amazon show I’ve been meaning to watch since it premiered in 2015. Hint: Rufus Sewell is in it, and so is that guy from The New Guy. It’s a shorter list this week, and as always, represents the highlights … Continue reading

Rich’s Week in Geek – Nov. 25, 2016
Here we are at the end of Thanksgiving week, and as we hurtle forward toward the end of the year, film studios are offering up their biggest and most exciting movies, and the list of video games and TV shows I need to catch up on reaches its absolute breaking point. We’re truly spoiled for choice … Continue reading
Rich’s Week in Geek – Nov. 13, 2016
Welcome to the first in what I’m planning as a weekly column – Rich’s Week in Geek. I toyed around with a couple different names before deciding on this one, and for the longest time it was going to be called something along the lines of “Commitment Issues” or “Short Attention Span” – because as … Continue reading
What Makes Gotham Enjoyable
First things first, let’s take a look at the key word in that title: enjoyable. I’m not going to sit here and make an argument that Gotham, a show quite possibly set in the Bizarro World portion of the DC Universe, is good.

With Suicide Squad arriving in theaters in just a couple of weeks, it was a prime time to get fans pumped about some of their biggest upcoming projects. While the Justice League footage was pretty sweet, the trailer that had me bursting with … Continue reading
SDCC 2016: Marvel TV is Alive and Well
The Upfronts back in May were a bit of a bummer as a fan of the Marvel Cinematic Universe’s television presence. Not only was Agent Carter cancelled, but the Mockingbird-focused Most Wanted was ultimately passed over by ABC. Throw in that there was no further mention of the in-development Damage Control, and it was hard … Continue reading
Somebody Save Me: A Smallville Retrospective
In an era when superhero shows seem like an inescapable part of our pop culture landscape, it can be hard to remember a time when live-action versions of such properties were few and far between. Granted, as a huge fan of superhero movies and television, I don’t really have a desire to revisit those dark … Continue reading
A Joyful New Beginning
We’ve been talking about launching this website for a long time. So much planning, discussion and anticipation have gone into its creation, and now we’re finally here at the starting line. There’s a musician I admire greatly named Blake Schwarzenbach who once said: “We’re all just waiting – waiting to begin.” Well, as far as The … Continue reading
