Josh Reviews Secret Invasion
Secret Invasion is the latest Marvel show on Disney+. In this six-episode series, a grizzled Nick Fury returns to the field in an attempt to stop a civil war between the shape-shifting Skrull aliens on Earth. At the end of Captain Marvel, set in 1995, Fury had discovered and befri
“And Now Our Watch is Ended” — Josh Bids Farewell to Game of Thrones
Looking back on eight seasons of Game of Thrones, I am in awe of what creators David Benioff and D. B. Weiss have been able to accomplish. They brought the novels of George R. R. Martin’s to glorious life, hooking me deeply into the stories and characters. It’s been a
Josh Reviews Solo!
Solo takes place in the years prior to the original Star Wars, when the galaxy is still under the thumb of the Empire. Young Han and his friend Qi’ra (pronounced like Kira, which makes me think of Star Trek: Deep Space Nine) have grown up in the slums of Corellia, scrounging
Josh Reviews Game of Thrones Season Seven!
It’s hard to believe that we have arrived at the endgame of Game of Thrones. It wasn’t so long ago that I remember watching the first few episodes of the show, and slowly falling in love with its vast array of characters, its wonderful fantasy world-building, and its rut
The Winds of Winter: Josh Reviews Season Six of Game of Thrones!
I am hideously late in posting this review, but I had a lot to say about season six of Game of Thrones. First and foremost, while I have read a lot of criticism of this season online, I found season six to be thrilling, with the show as good as it has ever been if […]
Josh Reviews Game of Thrones: Season Five!
I fell in love with Game of Thrones fairly early in its first season. I keep waiting for the show to falter, but I am continually impressed and amazed by this spectacular show which seems to continue building and deepening the characters and the world. No show in years has held me
Josh Reviews Terminator: Genisys
In my review of Jurassic World, I commented that the problem with all of the disappointing sequels to the great Jurassic Park is that they’ve basically been the exact same movie retold over and over again. The Terminator has also had disappointing sequel after disappointing se
Josh Reviews Game of Thrones Season Four
I keep waiting for Game of Thrones to stumble, but so far show-runners David Benioff and D. B. Weiss have continued on an impressive winning streak, with each season successfully building on what came before. I wondered, in my review of season three, how the show would continue afte
“You Know Nothing, Jon Snow” — Josh Reviews Game of Thrones Season 3!
It seems like the third season of Game of Thrones began just a few minutes ago and now, ten pretty terrific episodes later, it’s over and the long, long wait until next spring and the next season begins. Overall, season 3 of Game of Thrones was another phenomenal season of this
Game of Thrones Returns!
I love the cable model of short seasons presented all in one burst, as opposed to the network model of 24-or-so episodes strung out over a whole year. But boy, sometimes it is really hard to wait for the many months between seasons of those cable shows!! After an excruciating wait
