Four years ago, I did a post on Books I’d Like to See Adapted for the Screen. In that time, I'm sorry to report that not only did the major studios and streamers not pay much attention to my instructions (I'm as shocked as you are), they also failed to finish promising adaptations like the Shadow … Continue reading Books I’d Like to See Adapted For the Screen II
An entertaining effort, but it falls short of really capturing that classic "Disney magic."
I finally had a chance to sit down and stream the latest MCU movie and, while it may not be the best MCU movie, I do not understand all the negativity about this one. I thought it was a perfectly good time, and it was fun! Iman Vellani shines as Kamala Khan, aka Ms. Marvel. Teyonah … Continue reading Review: The Marvels
In honor of Netflix's adaptation of Leigh Bardugo's Grishaverse series, Shadow and Bone, which premieres April 23rd, I put together a list of books I think might also be due for a screen adaptation.

Where do your favorite characters stand going into Avengers: Endgame?
Captain Marvel is a solid entry into the Marvel Cinematic Universe, but it doesn't do much to rise above the middle of the pack. Captain Marvel plays it safe and, if history has taught us anything, it's that the Marvel movies that shine are the ones that fully embrace every weird and wonderful nuance of their worlds … Continue reading Review: Captain Marvel
For my birthday this year, I opted to check out Rebel Wilson's new romantic-comedy spoof Isn't It Romantic, and I'm happy to report it was a good choice. A rom-com spoof, you ask? Does that mean it's for people who love rom-coms, or people who love to make fun of them? I say the answer is … Continue reading Review: Isn’t It Romantic
