If you know me you know I love the Oscars. I love Oscar season (hmmm… I haven’t had a fancy dress up party for the Oscars in a while, maybe I should). I got a little busy towards the end of the year last year and missed several of the big Oscar flicks. I’m still…
Remember how on my last review (Murder on the Orient Express) I said I was expecting to say “well, that was a movie” about Justice League as well? Well…. I *GUESS* that was a movie… I mean… there were pictures and stuff… and they moved. Does that qualify? I’ve been going back and forth about the…
Yesterday was a good movie watching day for me. I already posted my review of Happy Death Day earlier, but since I finally got my Movie Pass card, Steph and I decided to make it a double feature and went to another movie that I had been really looking forward to right after. The biopic…
Max, Steph and I went out to West Virginia to work at WVPopCon 2017. In addition to selling the comic book, I decided to also run a cosplay photo booth: Quick edits of cosplayers where I photoshop them onto covers or into scenes that make sense for their character. Here are some of the shots…
Before I wrote my Wonder Woman review… in fact… even before I saw it, I started thinking about the way I, and other people rate movies. See at that point I was still afraid of the possibility that Wonder Woman wouldn’t actually be good. It turns out it was, but I didn’t know that yet. And…
I’ve had a strange relationship with the build up for Wonder Woman. I remember when they announced it was on the docket for the DCEU several years ago. There seemed to be no real plan other than “get a female super hero movie out before Marvel does” and that’s never a great way to start.…
I started the PCA/ACA paper I did last year with an anecdote about a little girl that I met at Baltimore Comicon a couple years ago. She was three years old and dressed as Harley Quinn. Here’s an excerpt from the story: In September of 2012, while attending Baltimore Comic Con, I met a three-year-old…
So, “Justice” has apparently… uh…. dawned… which is to say that Batman v. Superman came out today. Err… yay! Or something. I had done a pretty good job of avoiding spoilers moving up to its release (and I will be try to avoid giving them here) with the sole exception of the official trailers that…
What’s geeky? Comics and statistics. What’s really geeky? Using them both together. A couple months ago, I mentioned that I had been tracking sales on comics starring female characters. This was related to an academic paper I was working on (one that I am finishing up to present on Friday). My primary reason for tracking the sales was…
