Is Gotham doing it for you?

I may be alone in this but Gotham on Fox is not really grabbing me. I know being overly critical to the source material when a good story comes to a new medium can come with fan boy criticism. However, last nights episode introduced Harvey Dent, AKA Two Face and he is noticeably older than Bruce Wayne.

From IGN review of "Harvey Dent"

There are a few DC Comic shows on TV now and they seem to be better received than the one Marvel show that serves as a tie in for any Marvel movie. I think the reason Arrow and The Flash are doing so well is because they do a good job of sticking to the source material from the books or at least reboot it in a way fans enjoy. Fox seems to have invested a lot in this show so it may last to a second season but I think long time comic fans may stick with the other DC Comic related shows.

Better Late Than Never Review: All The Phantasm Movies

The Phantasm Series Shows Players Riding Out Their Passions I just recently watched all the Phantasm movies.

I know things are opening up and the weather is nice, but we're not quite out of the COVID-19 woods yet. Since that is the case I am still re-watching old horror flicks and catching ones I might have missed .

All I could remember about the movie was "The Tall Man,' played by Angus Scrimm in all the films, those flying chrome-plated death spheres, and little dudes in cans. Along with Scrimm, the film stars Michael Baldwin, Bill Thornberry, and Reggie Bannister. Baldwin plays Mike Pearson, who is the...

Brush Fire and How I Finished My First Novella

Brush Fire is the first of many stories that I hope to write. Photo by Patrick Fore on Unsplash Some years ago, in 2015 I attended the NJ Comic Expo . I was covering it for this site, to gain experience and get my feet wet covering events since it was something I knew I wanted to do for my freelance work. Writing is something I never thought I would get into, but I fell into it through my love for martial arts, reading, and film. It's why I made this site, so I can write about the things I love. By looking for things to write about, I found that my love for reading balances out with my love of writing. Usually, I do one, then the other but a lot of the writing I do is inspired by the work I do for combat sports. I don't want to be a one-trick pony. I want to evolve my writing and I'm always looking for ways to get better. Some of my favorite stories in various mediums come from Stephen King . So, when I went looking for instruction on how he writes, I found his book ...
