The Mandalorian was a huge hit for Disney Plus, and someone who stole the show — besides Baby Yoda — was Taika Waititi voicing the quirky droid, IG-11. Oh yeah, he also directed a really good episode on the series too, Chapter 8: Redemption. Then, there’s also the fact that he directed the fantastic Thor: Ragnarok.

The Making of ‘RoboCop’
RoboCop was one of those movies that stuck with me from childhood all the way into adulthood. I was probably too young when I first saw it, but oh well. It was worth it. The moral of the story is: it was a damn good film that was ahead of its time.

Tim Blake Nelson Stars in ‘Ghosts of Ozarks’
Admittedly, I haven’t really seen actor Tim Blake Nelson’s work before until recently with HBO’s Watchmen. He quickly captivated me with his character, Looking Glass; a brilliant, yet damaged and paranoid detective. I was a fan of the graphic novel, and even with Looking Glass being an entirely new character, he fast became my favorite part of the show. -
‘Don’t Worry Darling’ Directed by Olivia Wilde
Olivia Wilde’s first effort directing a feature-length film quickly earned her a fantastic reputation as a director. And enough so, that various studios bid against each other for her next movie project, with New Line winning the rights. While her first film, Booksmart, leaned on comedy, her next effort is a psychological thriller. -
‘Venom’ Sequel: Let There Be Carnage
I’ll admit. I had zero interest when Venom came out in theaters. It looked ridiculous. Plus, how can there be an Eddie Brock without a Peter Parker out-photographing him? Or a Venom without a symbiote that is hellbent on revenge against Spider-Man for being rejected?I eventually gave in and watched the movie and I was more than pleasantly surprised. I enjoyed it a lot. Tom Hardy made a very interesting and weird Eddie Brock, and his Venom felt like a teenage oddball. It was fun.

A Tron Legacy
When I was young enough to be an only child, a movie that stuck with me was Tron, starring Jeff Bridges and Bruce Boxleitner. The vivid colors of blue and orange were etched into my mind. Especially blue, since it’s my favorite color.But anyway!

The Batmobile in ‘The Batman’
I’m terribly late to the party, but oh well.
A while ago, The Batman director Matt Reeves released photos of his version of the Batmobile, with a couple also showing Robert Pattinson as Batman in the shadows.

‘Terminator: Dark Fate’ at Comic-Con
Trailers have already come out for the newest Terminator film; and at the time, my only interest was Gabriel Luna playing the antagonist, since I really enjoyed his work as Robbie Reyes (Ghost Rider) on Agents of SHIELD. Then their Comic-Con panel piqued my interest. A lot.
