Supergirl- Some Variety in Super Hero Tales

People complain about "superhero fatigue" because they claim all those films are the same.

Then one with a different take comes out, and they attack it. 

ugh.

Good Omens Final Season Was Tiny, But Somehow Felt Right

Disney World 2025 Planning Part 9

April 15, 2025

H minus 33 Days
Last night we watched Raya and the Last Dragon, another in the pile of underrated, awesomely done, gorgeously animated Disney films that only my family seems to like. Get with it people. 

(Foreshadowing- Great moments ahead for Raya Enthusiasts.)

Little Green Guy on the Big Screen

The Mandalorian television series was clearly laid out as an "adventure of the week" western. The movie, while maintaining the high levels of quality the show established, almost felt more like a James Bond film. 

Disney World 2025 Planning Part 8

Good Oscar Night for Horror, No?

Del Toro's  Frankenstein scored a bunch of recognition at awards night this year! Vampires in the form of Sinners did so to an even greater extent. That film also grabbed the public consciousness and I am so glad it did.

Transformers Rewatch- Closing Thoughts and a Confession

Well, that was one long and crazy "ROLL OUT!" I truly wish I had ANY control over where this writing addiction takes me and what my brain decides to focus on. 

Of Different Men The Same Woman and Modified Monsters

I was already late on this one, therefore I delayed even further in talking about Guillermo Del Toro's Frankenstein. (It got a tiny theatrical release in 2025 to meet Oscar requirements, but is mainly on Netflix.) This way it is now almost exactly fifteen years since one of my earliest posts concerning the differences between the original Mary Shelly written novel, and men's interpretations of that tale. I am not behind schedule, I am planning commemorations.

The Great DC and Marvel Index

Fifteen years ago tomorrow, I started the process of screaming into the void that is this blog.

Thank you to those who have kept it from being a completely empty void.

Due to the obsession my brain chose to focus on starting a little over a year ago (and continuing for another couple of months), I completely missed the fact that was coming up until very recently.

Therefore, to celebrate, I shall accomplish a housecleaning task I have been meaning to do for literal years, but never got the energy to actually do it.

Here is the index of references to DC and Marvel comics, movies, TV shows and random thoughts that have taken over my head during the past decade and a half, and presumably going forward.

Note for those thinking I have shown some resistance to laziness by not taking two weeks off of writing off by making a separate index for each...

I have to put a link for this index into all of those posts listed, meaning it will be much easier to accomplish with a single index than having to sort two individually.

"Start" means the first of a series of linked posts. "Index" means (now let's not always see the same hands) and Index of posts.

Marvel characters will be in straight alphabetical order. DC will, naturally, be first, and also be in alphabetical order... after the big three of course, and Green Lanterns because I can't seem to shut up about them.

N-joy!!!!!

Predator Badlands Post

 FINALLY!

We got a film with a Yautja as the main character.

AND THEY USED THAT NAME!!!!

Tron 3 Was Not In 4D After All

 I really need to send Disney a thank you card. 

Because as far as I can tell, even though they know there is no evidence to support the idea that these movies will do well at the box office, they make a Tron film just for me every fifteen or twenty years. 

The Tap Remains the Same

There have been a boatlaod of "decades later" return sequels in recent years. Some are celebrations, some are returns and some are passing the torch. 

Spinal Tap II- The End Continues, is, by far, the best in show (see what I did there?) for this type of follow up film.

Jurassic World Weariness

Hey, Universal!  Come here for a minute.

Have a seat, please.

Relax. 

Uncle Jeff needs to have a talk with you.

Indeed... It was Fantastic!

Wow two superhero films in the same month that understand the source material! 

It only took living fifty five years to reach this point!

Look, Up in the Sky! It's Spoilerman!

Years ago, I was asked if I had to chose between Superheroes and Dinosaurs what would I do? I answered- I don't have to, that's why I like Godzilla.

I did learn the answer for well done Superheroes this week, as instead of seeing the new Jurassic Park like I was supposed to, I saw this again.

Spoilers a plenty for this year's Superman.

Because I cannot keep them to myself anymore.
