Dr. Strangelove: Or what happens when two geniuses work together
In the thick of the Cold War, Stanley Kubrick created a work of art to reflect the state of human society in arguably the most absorbable form; a satire. As the great Sun Tzu said, all wars are won before they are fought; Dr Strangelove’s brilliance also comes through in its approach of the concept (nuclear war), before the cameras were turned on.

The Fall Guy
Swimming costumes, spicy margaritas, and bad decisions. If you know me, you know I don't like romcoms. I'm not a very big fan of romance at all, really. I'm not a fan of Ryan Gosling, either. (Or at least, I wasn't... that has now changed.) No offence to the guy, I'm sure he's smashing. I just thought (probably unfairly, to be honest) "he's that guy who does romcoms". (He stole the show in Barbie, though.)

The Boys Season 2
The first few episodes of The Boys are out and the internet reaction for the most part has been insufferable. Between internet incels talking shit about Erin Moriarty’s looks and creatively illiterate morons screaming that this season is suffering from “bad writing” (something they couldn’t possibly be more specific about because they have no idea what would actually constitute bad writing) this season of The Boys is certainly being talked about. That said I think the new season is off to a great start and it feels literally exactly like the previous 3 seasons that we have gotten. Before we get started with The Boys season 2, episode 4 let’s do a quick recap up to this point, Butcher is dying, Huey’s mom is back, Firecracker is coming after Starlight and for some reason Sister Sage and The Deep slept together…Okay well here we go.

Are you as confused as me?
Everyone who knows me knows that I am a big fan of the HBO show Game of Thrones. I thought George R.R. Martin was a genius, and I thought the team that brought us the show was simply brilliant. I refer to that show very often as I got to know all of the main characters very well glued to each episode and rewatching it on DVD multiple times.

Villainess Review: Maria Delgado (My Fatal Social Following)
I literally beamed when I went to Lifetime Movie Club and saw an actual new original film hit the online site: My Fatal Social Following. The reason for my elation is simple--it's because Lifetime Movie Club originals are villainess magnets. I'm dead serious, I really wish that Lifetime would release more original movies to LMC. It all started with the film, Dead in the Water, back in 2021, but the aforementioned recent film is only the eighth LMC original released since then. Now, I'm not asking that they release them by the bunches like Tubi, who releases about four or five Lifetime-esque thrillers per month! All I ask is that we get a Lifetime Movie Club exclusive thriller just once a month. That's not too much to ask.
