Krampus is the evil shadow of Santa Claus who viciously attacks families who have seemingly lost the Christmas spirit. He is huge, he’s ugly, he has hooves, he jumps from roof to roof, and he has quite a few minions to help to do his bidding. Krampus is directed by Michael Dougherty, responsible for the […]
This week’s episode of Da Vinci’s Demons relies on exposition to explain what has happened to Lorenzo (Elliot Cowan) this season. Florence’s otherwise intellectual and compassionate leader has turned into a violent, mentally disturbed, and aggressive tyrant. In a well-done scene, back in the Medici home, Lorenzo is taking off the Turkish armor that he […]
Well, that was an all-around disappointment, was it not? To be fair, I wasn’t expecting all that much, in light of the uninspiring first half of the two-parter on Tuesday (check out my Flash counterpart Alexander Wong’s excellent take on “Legends of Today” here), but that had to be one of the worst Arrow episode’s […]
Supergirl fans might be wondering where Kara’s famous cousin has been, but the mystery will soon be solved. CBS has announced that they are looking to cast a younger version of Superman.

Last week, I decided to give Supergirl one more episode to win me over. Time to figure out its characters, determine how to talk about feminism and real issues intelligently. Whatever. I was just looking for a demonstration of the show simply working. And I thought if any episode could do it, one with an […]
The world remains fascinated by Steve Jobs. Only four years have passed since his untimely death from cancer in 2011, but the genius behind Apple has already been the subject of three movies. Ashton Kutcher got there first with a run-of-the-mill biopic which hardly anyone saw and, the few who did, have forgotten already. Alex […]
Halo 5: Guardians reminds me of Halo 2 in a multitude of ways. The expectations for 343 Industries’ latest sequel are high, okay not as high as Halo 2 was in 2004, despite the botched launch of The Master Chief Collection last year. The marketing machine was misleading back then and the same is indeed […]
