review
Reviews of the top geek movies, tv, and books in the industry.
Caped Crusader
So far Batman: The Caped Crusader is more than I had hoped for. Now admittedly I had set the bar really low because the overwhelming amount of Batman media is sexist and subpar at best as a whole. There are very few redeemable projects and honestly most aren’t worth the watch. Thus far, this one is worth the watch. Between the introduction of pretty much everyone interesting in Gotham City, and the different focus every episode the show seems to not only understand its roots but rely on them. The creative team clearly understands what made the original animated series successful and they are taking the best parts of that formula and applying them here.

Drive Away Dolls
There has been a rise in lesbian media this year and I love it alot. Among those titles is Drive Away Dolls. I am very behind in my movie watching for the year but I am doing my best to catch up. Everything I know about this movie screams “campy as hell” and I really hope that I’m right because that’s what I’m here for. So here we go with my latest, super late movie review.

Civil War
So when I saw the trailer for Civil War I knew that this movie was going to be weird at best, terrible if we’re being realistic. The casting was strong but as we know that is nowhere near enough to make a good movie. But I love A24 and I have faith so here we are.

American Society of Magical Negroes
Okay so when I first saw the trailer for this movie, and saw the title, I was concerned that the premise might not be executed correctly. But I had hope, hope that I would be properly, white person uncomfortable. And not actually, wow this is really bad uncomfortable. Now I would also like to recognize before I go into my review that my voice is not the most important one here and should a reviewer with a more personal stake in this have an opposite opinion, that is the one that you should listen to. This is simply a review from my very limited point of view.

Damsel
Netflix has really cranked out the original content this year, and I am behind on all of it. Milly Bobby Brown’s Damsel serves up a pretty basic twist on a fantasy story. I think we all could tell from the first look that it was going to be your basic feminist fairytale, which isn’t inherently bad but it is all in the execution. And if we are being completely honest I don’t really have a lot of faith in Netflix writers. They seem more concerned about simply getting out content than creating and telling stories. But here we go with my actual review of Damsel.

Otaku Girl (Book Review): Where Memes and Literature Mix
Last year, I was lucky to stumble upon the book Escapist Dream by Louis Bulaong. It’s a story about this virtual reality world where people can visit and transform themselves into real comic book, anime, and video game characters. It’s basically this pop culture gamelit book for geeks which, as a fellow geek myself, instantly loved. While it’s gotten mixed reviews as expected from a book of its genre, it has gotten recognition for being the quintessential book for geeks.
