Our Current Futuristic Sci-Fi Moment
The folks at the Ringer recently posted a nice piece on our current, not-quite-futuristic, sci-fi television moment. The three franchises he wrote about that I’ve got some investment in: Star Wars via Andor, Star Trek via Strange New Worlds, and … Continue reading
The Force and the Return
I don’t do remixes often, but yesterday I came across this musical remix for the big moment at the end of The Mandalorian season two (so: spoilers). Such a great weaving together of themes. That ending is something that a … Continue reading

Last night I caught a last-minute early showing of Solo: A Star Wars Story. I had kind of talked myself out of any early showing. Buzz around the movie had been mediocre at best. There had been some drama behind … Continue reading
The Bluths Meet the Skywalkers?
How have I missed this for three weeks? It’s a brilliant cut and narration by Ron Howard, who brings together two of the best “family” franchises in a great way. I’ll be back later tonight for a quick review of … Continue reading
