With the world now being a few days removed from the Better Call Saul premiere, and me wanting to do an article on something other than a movie, I decided on a review of the two debut episodes and an analysis on where this show might be going. What were we expecting?

Film

After decades of getting treated like a pop culture punchline, thanks almost entirely to “Super Friends” (with a little help from “HBO’s Entourage”), Aquaman finally has his own feature film. It’s a weird and at times trippy superhero adventure that strives — and almost succeeds — to be the most epic superhero movie ever made…

Venom Review

“Good” and “bad” are certainly relative terms when it comes to Ruben Fleischer’s Marvel-based film, which focuses on an evil alien life form known as a “symbiote” that was originally conceived back in 1984 as an adversary for Spider-Man…
