This video is amazing. It’s a nine minute mash-up of clips from lots of great movies to create the notion that there is one bar in which a lot of famous movie characters meet up. Check it out, it is great (despite the mis-spelling in the opening title): How about that love for
Josh Enjoys the Rogue Cut of X-Men: Days of Future Past
I quite enjoyed the theatrical version of X-Men: Days of Future Past. (Click here for my original review.) Let me be clear, I lament how much of the classic comic-book story, by Chris Claremont & John Byrne, was jettisoned for the film. I would so dearly love to some day see
Josh Reviews Fantastic Four
I’ve been a fan of the Fantastic Four ever since I first started reading comic books as a kid. The FF was the first super-hero comic book I ever followed monthly, and I’ve been reading it on and off ever since. I long to someday see a faithful adaptation of the FF on-s

This trailer for SPECTRE is pretty great: I am tremendously excited for the reintroduction of S.P.E.C.T.R.E. and Blofeld to the Bond films — for the first time in four decades!! — and I really hope they don’t blow it. This new trailer looks large-scale, and I am th

Josh Reviews Netflix’s Daredevil: Season One!
Let’s cut right to the chase: Netflix’s thirteen-episode first season of Daredevil is a triumph, a gloriously dark, gritty, adult depiction of The Man Without Fear. Netflix’s Daredevil is the finest super-hero television show I have ever seen. Am I exaggerating?
Josh Reviews The Avengers: Age of Ultron!
Marvel Studios is on a winning streak the likes of which I have rarely seen. (The only recent comparison I can draw is Pixar’s incredible run from Ratatouille in 2007 through Toy Story 3 in 2010.) Right before seeing The Avengers: Age of Ultron, one of my friends sent me a r

Wow, looks like the studios have all started selling their 2015 movies pretty hard lately! This past week has seen a flood of new trailers for some big upcoming films. It all started, of course, with that look at Star Wars: The Force Awakens. What a great trailer. As I wrote las
