Josh’s Guide to Great Geeky Gifts — Part One!
October 13-14 is Amazon’s Prime Day, in which they trumpet all sorts of great discounted deals across their site. Personally, I enjoy hunting through their deals and I almost always make some great purchases each year when this comes around. So I thought this might be a fun
The Parker Films: Slayground (1983)
I’m continuing my look at the films based on Donald E. Westlake (written under the pseudonym Richard Stark)’s Parker Character. I really enjoyed 1967’s Point Blank (click here for my review) and 1968’s The Split (click here for my review). I thought 1973’s The Outfit was
Josh Reviews Mulan
Because we don’t plan on going to a movie theatre any time in the near future, my family was delighted that Disney opted to release their live-action remake of Mulan on Disney+. Yes, the additional $30 fee on top of the cost of our Disney+ subscription was steep. But that wa

Josh Reviews The King of Staten Island
In Judd Apatow’s new film, The King of Staten Island, SNL’s Pete Davidson stars as Scott, who lives at home with his widowed mother. Scott’s father was a firefighter, who died on the job when Scott was young. Scott is content to live his slacker-ish life, smoking
Josh Reviews Birds of Prey and the Fantabulous Emancipation of One Harley Quinn
Despite my having a very negative opinion of most of the recent DC/Warner Brothers films, including the dreadful Suicide Squad (which is where Margot Robbie’s version of Harley Quinn first appeared), I was interested in seeing Birds of Prey and the Fantabulous Emancipation of On
Josh Review the DC Animated Film: Apokolips War
Justice League Dark: Apokolips War seems to be the finale of the “New 52” style continuity of animated films that began with 2014’s Justice League: War. Here in Apokolips War, the story circles back around to Darkseid (who was the main villain in Justice League: Wa
Josh Reviews Shazam!
I missed Shazam! when it was released to theatres last year. I’d been burned out on one bad DC/Warner Brothers live-action movie after another, and while this one looked interesting, I didn’t rush out to see it. I recently watched the film on blu-ray, and I enjoyed it!
