Monarch: Legacy of Monsters is a very fun show, especially with both Kurt Russell and his son Wyatt Russell playing the same character at different points in his life. As the show went on, the flashbacks became less and less, and having a Russell means you gotta keep him somehow. Which leads to Wyatt getting his own spinoff to go on further adventures in the land of huge monsters.

I can’t say I ever read the books because I’m a dirty heathen, but I was a fan of both film versions of The Girl with the Dragon Tattoo. Besides the riveting story and the intrigue of the characters, I also liked seeing laptops being a main prop since I’m a huge computer nerd and oh god why am I telling you this.

Robert Pattinson has been having a great couple of years of films; playing little freaks of different levels, from The Batman, Mickey 17, all the way to Dune: Part Three. There are more movies in between, but I think you see where I’m getting at. One of the freaks that Pattinson has portrayed recently is Chris Hansen, host of To Catch a Predator.

Hot off Spider-Man: Brand New Day, director Destin Daniel Cretton is spearheading Naruto.

The original Street Fighter movie was a lot of fun. It didn’t take itself seriously, had entertaining fight scenes, and a lot of memorable lines. And by a lot, I mean a lot. So going into the remake, I was already hoping for some ridiculous fun and good fight scenes — and that is exactly what we got. And what added to it, was that it took inspiration from the video games, the original film, and the Street Fighter II anime. All of the callbacks and references work.

Sure, director Curry Baker garnered great success with his feature film debut with Obsession, but he has not forgot his roots with short films on YouTube. Not even currently working on another feature film has stopped him.
(more…)One of the first — by which I mean the first show — that I watched on Apple TV once I got it and paid attention after all the F1 on the F1 app, was Monarch: Legacy of Monsters. As someone who grew up on Godzilla and Kurt Russell, it was obvious that I had to watch. And we didn’t just get one Russell, we also got Kurt’s son, Wyatt Russell. It wasn’t their first time playing the same character at different points in the character’s life — that accolade belongs to Soldier, but it is their first time playing the same character in a TV show.
Side note: how did they swing getting both Russells for a TV series?

The final trailer for Dune: Part Three is out and it’s clearly showing Paul’s descent from war. There is a huge time jump to nearly two decades after the conclusion of Dune: Part Two — and, well — war still happens and rebellion is forever.
