Josh Reviews Unfrosted
Jerry Seinfeld produced, directed, co-wrote (along with Spike Feresten, Barry Marder, and Andy Robin), and stars in Unfrosted, a very silly movie telling an insane, very much NOT a true story of the creation of the Pop Tart. I’m a huge Jerry Seinfeld fan, so I was of course inte
Josh Reviews Steve! (Martin): A Documentary in 2 Pieces
I’ve been a fan of Steve Martin for as long as I can remember. I probably started with his films, movies like Roxanne and L.A. Story and Parenthood and My Blue Heaven and so many more… and then found my way back into his standup, which was amazing. (As I got older, I d
Josh Reviews Godzilla x Kong: The New Empire
In Godzilla x Kong: The New Empire, once again the two behemoths have to team up to take on a larger evil. A signal from the “Hollow Earth” (a realm that maybe is another dimension, or maybe is actually inside Planet Earth?) (Either way, it was discovered back in Godzi
Josh Reviews The Ministry of Ungentlemanly Warfare
Guy Ritchie’s The Ministry of Ungentlemanly Warfare is (loosely) based on true events from World War II, only recently declassified (and detailed in the 2014 book Churchill’s Secret Warriors: The Explosive True Story of the Special Forces Desperadoes of WWII by Damien Lewi
Star Trek: I, Q
I haven’t been writing much about Star Trek novels on this site lately. That’s because I haven’t been reading many! I seem to have gotten somewhat soured on the whole enterprise (see what I did there?) after Paramount and Simon & Schuster put the kibbosh on t

Invincible is a terrific animated series on Amazon Prime Video, adapting the comic book series written by Robert Kirkman and illustrated by Cory Walker & Ryan Ottley. The series has what seems like a classic comic-book super-hero premise: Mark Grayson is a college freshman who
News Around the Net!
I must admit, this first trailer for the Beetlejuice sequel made me very happy: I love this trailer for The Penguin, a TV show on MAX spinning out of The Batman. I hope this is good!! Also from the world of DC/Warner Brothers comes this intriguing first trailer for Joker: Folie a De
Josh Reviews Netflix’s Live-Action Avatar: The Last Airbender
I have never quite understood the instinct to create a live-action version of a beloved animated property. Disney has made this a core of their moviemaking business in recent years, and even when I’ve enjoyed the live-action versions, I’ve never felt they had much reason
Josh Reviews Ghostbusters: Frozen Empire
Ghostbusters: Frozen Empire is a sequel to Ghostbusters: Afterlife. Two years after the events of Afterlife, the Spengler clan — kids Trevor (Finn Wolfhard) and Phoebe (Mckenna Grace), mom Callie (Carrie Coon) and her boyfriend Gary (Paul Rudd) — have settled into their
News Around the Net!
Just released is a first look at the new Alien movie, Alien: Romulus! It’s funny, I’ve been so excited about Noah Hawley (Fargo, Legion)’s in-the-works Alien TV show that I’d forgotten there was also a new Alien movie in the works. I still wish that Ridley
