Black Panther: Wakanda Forever
I got the pleasure of seeing Black Panther: Wakanda Forever on opening night and I did in fact cry like a little bitch baby within the first 30 seconds. It was an incredibly emotional, heartfelt and touching tribute to Chadwick Boseman and it was genuinely the most incredible Marvel movie for one simple reason, it didn’t feel like a Marvel movie.

My Review "Neal Brennan: Blocks"
Neal Brennan: Blocks is Netflix's latest comedy stand up special for 2022. I've been following some of his work for a little bit now and I can say I'm a bit of a fan of his work. This one felt a lot more personal than his other specials although he does expose a little bit about himself in each of his specials. There's more of a deep dive in this special.

My Review of "Hellboy II: The Golden Army"
Hellboy II: The Golden Army came out back in 2008. It was 4 years after the original movie. I reviewed the last movie with some positive feedback. It got me wondering why I don't really remember the sequel. I'm sure I watched it but why wouldn't I remember it. After seeing this movie I kind of remember why I forgot about it.

Black Panther Wakanda Forever Review: Ryan Coogler Delivers The Best MCU Film of Phase 4
Warning: This post contains spoilers for Black Panther: Wakanda Forever. Even before we see the first frame of Black Panther: Wakanda Forever, it is clear that the film is a tribute to Chadwick Boseman. The actor, who played Marvel’s original Black Panther, is ever-present in the film in spirit. And Ryan Coogler’s film beautifully pays tribute to the late actor in perhaps the best way a film can.

Dave Chappelle isn’t an Enemy of the Trans Community, He’s an Advocate
Photo by John Bauld Dave Chappelle has gotten a ton of attention with The Closer. His latest Netflix special, the transgender, LBGT and MeToo communities are not happy. Understandable, there’s an onslaught of raucous and down right hurtful jokes aimed at those groups. But people are only offended because they just don’t understand what a real comic does. So as to not leave them hanging, I’m going to explain standup as a civic duty.

Review of 'Omens Bite'
Something wicked this way comes... Twin sisters, Mercy and Hunter are witches, direct descendants of the Goode family, the founders of their town. After the murder of their mother at the hands of a foul demon, they have become the protectors of the Gates to different underworlds--ancient portals between their world and realms where mythology rules and the darkest of creatures exist. Grief has taken a terrible toll on the twins. Rather than bringing them together, their sadness has torn them apart, driving Mercy to attempt to save the crumbling Gates without her twin and Hunter into the arms of a dangerous goddess. While Mercy looks for aid from Khenti, Guardian of the Egyptian Underworld, Hunter begins to realize the goddess she’s allied with is more monster than deity. She needs her sister’s help, but Mercy is beyond her reach on an adventure that could cost them everything, including their world.

Books have a mystic ability to create and immerse the readers in a universe that stirs up their minds. Whenever literary-inspired films manage to capture their viewers in that universe, history is made on the big screen and on over-the-top platforms. Little Fires Everywhere, a novel-inspired web series, might be listed as the latest in this list.
