Watch | New Girl Season 6

When New Girl premiered a few years ago, I thought that, while it was fun, I didn’t think I was going to stick with it in the long run. Yet, here I am, writing about its recently concluded sixth season. There are days when it feels like nothing has changed with the group that populates…

Watch | Legion Season 1

I may not always agree with the choices that 20th Century Fox makes with the X-Men franchise, but I found myself looking forward to what they have in store for their TV offerings. Especially since Marvel TV head honcho Jeph Loeb is on board. And also because they let Noah Hawley (who is responsible for…

Watch | Preacher Season 1

Back when I had the freedom to binge-watch TV series and films, I kept up with news so I knew which titles to look out for. And I’ve been hearing news of adapting Preacher for years. Considering the number of film and TV outfits that had their hand in it, and chose not to continue…

Watch | Wolf Children

I think I got a copy of Ookami Kodomo no Ame to Yuki or Wolf Children: Ame and Yuki as soon as it was released for home media viewing. My own viewing of it, however, kept getting pushed back until I realized it’s spent actual years on the backburner. Several weeks ago, I had the rare hour…

Watch | Santa Clarita Diet Season 1

I knew Drew Barrymore had a series developing at Netflix, but actual details didn’t turn up on my radar until a couple of weeks before it’s release. Their ads finally revealed that instead of the straight-up suburban family comedy it initially appeared to be, it turned out that Santa Clarita Diet is way more quirkier than…

Watch | Doctor Strange

I think all the hubbub about different actors being considered for Doctor Strange was a sham. I think the moment that Benedict Cumberbatch made a sly remark during SDCC on the year casting for the film was announced was already a confirmation that he had the part. I think that if they did actually audition other actors for…

Watch | Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find Them

When news first came out that they were releasing Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find Them, I was a little hesitant. I mean, the title it was derived from is a standard textbook that students from Hogwarts used to learn about magical creatures. Sure, it’s from the Harry Potter canon, but one that was written…

Watch | Arrival

Where does one start with a film like Arrival? Aside from this is something that you have to watch. Emphatically, I urge you to watch this if you haven’t yet. I’ve mentioned many times in the past that I’m a blockbuster film type of viewer. This means I’m more likely to look forward to the…

Watch | And Then There Were None

There are moments when you don’t feel like watching a movie, but don’t want to commit to a full-length TV series… especially on days when the only response you can come up with when you want to do something is “Who’s got time for that?”. It was such a moment when I chanced upon And…
