Sonic gets Upgraded in the new Sonic The Hedgehog Trailer
Earlier in the year, when Paramount released the trailer for the Sonic The Hedgehog movie, audiences were up in arms over Sonic’s look. It was so bad that the production team shelved the film for a bit and reworked the CGI. Six months later, we…
Doctor Sleep (dir. by Mike Flanagan)
If I asked you about Stephen King’s The Shining, would the book or the film come to mind? When it comes to adapting Stephen King’s stories to film, it’s not an easy feat. King himself had a problem turning his own short story “Trucks” into…
“I Ain’t Superstitious” – by Jeff Beck & Rod Stewart
Ever get a tune stuck in your head that you just can’t pin down?. I was trying to track down a song from Martin Scorsese’s Casino, and thank goodness, I finally found it. “I Ain’t Superstitious” was a classic blues tune originally written by Willie…

Come to Me – by Brad Fiedel
When I think of Brad Fiedel, the Terminator series is usually the first thing that comes to mind. 1985’s Fright Night, however, happens to be a great soundtrack by Fiedel. With Halloween coming, some of the music from that film is on my mind. For…

Joker (dir. by Todd Phillips)
I haven’t written a full movie review in a long time. This is going to be pretty bad, and I apologize if it comes off a little disjointed. I went through 7 or 8 revisions over the course of two days and I still don’t…
Trailer – Birds of Prey
Whenever I hear the name “Birds of Prey”, I think of the old CW show with Dina Meyer, Ashley Scott and Rachel Skarsten. Thankfully, WB has seen fit to upgrade all of that. It also changes the story somewhat, as the original Birds of Prey…
Deadly Valentine (by Charlotte Gainsbourg)
I’m currently catching up on HBO’s Succession and heard this song in the middle of S1:Episode 8, “Prague”. It’s Deadly Valentine, one of my favorites from the video game Forza Horizon 4. The song is from actress Charlotte Gainsbourg. If her name sounds at all familiar,…
Terry Jones (1942-2020)
You know that part in The Sandlot, where Smalls suddenly realizes that the “some lady named Ruth” signature on his dad’s baseball was actually that of The Great Bambino? That is me today, regarding Terry Jones’ passing. Terry Jones was one of the founders of…
