'Justice League'
I have heard so many negative reviews about Justice League that I was putting off watching it. Was it going to be a horrifying disappointment that would make me want to walk away from the DCEU like some people have suggested? Well, after giving into temptation, I can honestly say that, no, it was not horrifically terrible or world breakingly bad. So let's get into it.

The Pevensies
The Chronicles of Narnia holds a warm memory for most of us. For a lot of us, the books were a comfort; a bedtime story filled with adventure and wonder. But for those of us who read them as adults, they were interesting insights into theology.

Who Is the Father of Ash Ketchum?
Aside from stuff like "what happens inside of a Pokéball" and "why doesn't Ash age," one of the biggest unanswered questions and most sought after conspiracies behind the classic anime and video game, Pokémon, is the identity of Ash Ketchum's father. We do know his mother is Delia Ketchum, a sincere, gentle, and always smiling saint of a woman still living in Pallet Town, but his father is only ever mentioned once. There are a many theories and a few hints as to who (or what) he may be, like a deceased Pokémon trainer or Professor Oak himself, but as you can see, not all of them are all that great. Despite this, some theories do offer us both a look into the Pokéworld, as well as at the people living inside of it.

I was given an assignment: Analyze John Updike's A&P, or rewrite it any way you want. It was the one and only creative writing assignment for the semester, and I was not going to pass it up. So, here is the result of my rewrite of Updike.

Superhero or Supervillain?
I grew up reading comic books and watching Batman, Superman and the Green Hornet on TV. I even enjoyed Spiderman and the Incredible Hulk in movies, TV and in print. If I could go through a metamorphosis and change into someone else, who would I want to be? I know that I'd be the greatest superhero or super villain of all time, but exactly what would I be? Before I can answer that question, let us look at the qualities and characteristics I’d want in that super-powered individual.

What If Black Panther's Killmonger Had Won?
Erik Killmonger's last line in Black Panther was uncomfortable. Sitting in the theater, I felt angry that Marvel had just made me feel a resounding empathy for their psychotic villain (and make no mistake, he is psychotic). I also, as a writer, felt jealousy over the brilliance of what they'd just done.

Stop Trying to Revive 90s Classics
From the creation of live action versions of our favorite cartoons to rebooting classical television shows, there has been a lot of talk about injecting the 90s right into 2000s. On the surface, bringing back classics like these seems like a great idea. Many classic shows and movies have developed a cult following through the internet and social media; this means that there is a great target audience and lots of interest for these reboots and, in most cases, it helps bring about actors that we have not seen work in while. However the love that we have for classics simply cannot be duplicated and seems to be indicative of the lack of creativity and inspiration that seems to exist in the television and film industries.
