Captain Marvel suit revealed

capt marvel

A while ago I reacted to the first images of Captain Marvel’s costume for the upcoming movie with a bit of unease. As time went on it grew on me a bit but I hoped to see her in the iconic red, blue, and gold. Today I got to see some of the first images and they are freaking awesome! Once again, Marvel made a wise design choice going to the big screen; she looks badass and pretty much like she just walked off of the page.

capt marvel 2 Captain Marvel is going to be a huge addition to the MCU and while I’m not hugely versed in her stories, I do know she’s a hell of a force to be reckoned with. I can’t wait to see the Skrull designs next. May the gaming gods bring you glory.

El Camino Christmas

images

El Camino Christmas is the story of man trying to meet his dad for the first time, and instead things go sideways real fast. Luke Grimes (Eric Roth) meets a man claiming to know his dad (Tim Allen) that turns out to just be the local alcoholic. Sadly some weed falls out of his pocket in Grimes car and the small town police already not liking him drag him in and accuse him of running drugs. This is where things get even worse, see Carl Hooker (Vincent D’Onofrio) plays an old cop stuck in his ways and willing to do some unsavory things, like beat a prisoner until he confesses.

The next morning Deputy Billy (Dax Shepard) lets Grimes go to keep things a bit civil. No one gets to go to jail and the local cops don’t get in trouble for beating suspects. Seems fair right? This is where things get even worse. See Carl sees grimes, takes a few shots, forces him off the road and we end up at a local store.

The movie itself is good for a few laughs and there are some deep heart to heart moments in the store, but over all the movie is simply average. If you are a fan of Tim Allen you will really like it as his character is interesting and of course funny in that special Tim Allen way. Of course Kurtwood Smith is always a good time as well. The movie has its faults tho. The story itself it pretty bland and slow going and just about everything about it has been there done that, except the ending. The ending is amazing. So if you need a quick laugh and have some time to kill give it a shot, but don’t expect life altering. Best wishes and may the gaming gods bring you glory.

Halloween trailer 2

Summer is gone for 2018 folks, not the heat exactly, but the season is gone. And soon it’ll be time for tricks and treats galore- and the return of a beloved holiday buddy, Michael Myers. I was in love with Halloween 2018 first trailer and damn if the warm fuzzies didn’t carry over to the new trailer. I’m thrilled to see Michael stalking the streets again and I love the gritty take on a angry, vengeful Laurie Strode. the boogeyman is back after 40 years, and he finally came home.

Bow To Blood – The Review — All The PlayStation You’ll Ever Need.

Sometimes we may see a movie, play a game or even read a book where a character just almost has a life of its own. There was a movie called Empire Records and in the movie, there was a date of April 8th. What is April the 8th…well that is Rex Manning Day. But as […]

Die Hard with a Vengeance

Die hard 3

I want to start this review with a special shout out to my Dad, Duke, who got me into Die Hard as a kid. My favorite Die Hard needs to be shared with my favorite badass..

So after the events of Die Hard (1988) and Die Hard 2: Die Harder , John McClane is in a pretty rough place. His wife and family left him, filthy and drunk as a cop in New York fighting to keep his job. After a massive bombing, the terrorist responsible has a demand: he wants to play a game with McClane, but he didn’t count on a good Samaritan, Zeus, saving him. This terrorist named only Simon is driven to kill McClane, putting him and Zeus  through insane scenarios while Simon carries out his own agenda, but it isn’t long before John realizes Simon’s vendetta goes  back to his first great adventure- Simon was Han’s brother.

Die Hard with a Vengeance is pretty much what a action movie sequel should be. Bruce Willis, Samuel Jackson, and Jeremy Irons give great performances. The action scenes are truly badass and for the first time in the series, we get a lot of different locations so nothing ever feels stale. What helps too is the chemistry between Willis and Jackson which carries the film. What I truly love about the first 4 Die Hard films is how beat to shit McClane is by the end. I can’t stand action movies where no one gets dirty, just maybe a cut or two; in Die Hard, you know John McClaine ain’t Superman and the tension mounts because he wins every fight by the skin of his teeth. I seriously recommend tthe third Die Hard as much as the first and with that: may the gaming gods bring you glory and yippie-ki-ay motherfucker everyone ( even though it’s not Christmas)

One Last Shot (1998)

One shot is a short film by Mike Clattenberg which most of you know from Trailer Park boys. It featured the characters Rickey, Julian and Mr. Lahey and told the story of Rickey and Julians last day together before Rickey moved to Vancouver.

At first I thought the movie wasn’t very good but I realized it wasn’t really fair to judge a 20-year-old short film shot by friends and 3 guys to harshly. Sure Clerks is basically a cult classic but that is equal parts genius and fluke to be honest.

One last shot was actually fairly well put together, the scenes make sense and for a black and white film the lighting is actually well done. At no point did I feel like the dark parts were overly dark or the light taking away from anything and the acting while a bit bland at times didn’t exactly feel stiff. It just felt like what it was, people who loved movies that wanted to make one and get some experience and honestly that showed. I have seen much higher production value movies feel less heartfelt and honest than this did. Its only 30 minutes and it very much worth checking out if you are a fan of his or the Trailer Park Boys (which I am not) best wishes and may the gaming gods bring you glory.

Scary Stories To Tell In A Movie — nscovell

If you asked a person who grew up in both the 80’s and 90’s, what books they remember as youngsters. There’s a good chance that individual will say Scary Stories to Tell in the Dark was a past favorite. Many of us remember these three books and fondly remember reading the various tales within the […]

Graveyard Shift

graveyard shift

If Pet Sematary was my first introduction to King’s work, Graveyard Shift- circa the short story collection Night Shift – would be my second. The story, while brief, is about a textile mill with an massive rat infestation. They practically pour out of the floors and walls, but what happens when you try to exterminate the pests? A freak of nature lurks in the catacombs under the dying mill, a creature half rat and half bat. After grisly deaths happen at the mill, a new guy in town, the girl he falls for, the bastard foreman, and a group of workers have to journey into the basement to clear the rats, only to find the beast underneath…

This is basically a B movie creature-feature from Stephen King and it’s pretty solid. The story is quick with some good atmosphere and it’s got a darker ending then the movie, though the movie ain’t exactly cheery by the end. As for the movie, it’s a decent horror movie. There is some fair kills of some pretty forgettable characters and the creature doesn’t look bad for the time. Brad Douriff is over the time and funny as hell as the exterminater but I’m kind of pissed his character doesn’t really go anywhere. If you are scared of rats, this movie will terrify the hell out of you but other than that, it ain’t a bad movie. May the gaming gods bring you glory.
