I can more easily list off authors that I've loved and who's styles I've emulated quicker than directors, screenwriters, or actors. Why then, have I never... Continue Reading →

So, I wasn't planning on doing a Bad Movie Night Review about this movie, but it's been on my mind a lot these last few days, and I really feel like I have some stuff to get off my chest. So... here goes. This movie was, really, not very good. There. I said it. Now,... Continue Reading →
American Gods: Pilot – The Bone Orchard Review
Well, that was a trip!

Battlefield Earth! A Bad Movie Night/Book 2 Screen Saga of the Year 2016 – Part 2
Welcome back to the Battlefield Earth Saga! Last time, I went into detail about what I liked about both this novel and this film.
