I reviewed ‘Across the Spider-Verse’

I am in love with the animation in this movie! Every single frame is so beautiful. Spider-Punk and Spider-Man India were my favorite characters and I would watch a spinoff that was just those two. But aside from the stunning visuals, I did have a few issues with Spider-Man: Across the Spider-Verse, though.

Here are my brief thoughts about the movie.

Learning new things during the pandemic

Let’s face it, things are pretty horrible right now between the coronavirus crisis and the growing civil unrest as America starts to reckon with its history of systemic racism. If you’re like me, when you need a break from all the anger and gloom, you binge watch TV shows on your favorite streaming services. You also attempt to do something creative or learn a new skill as a pick-me-up when things are on fire in the world around you.

This is my first attempt at one of these video reviews, so feedback is welcome. Feel free to leave a comment on YouTube or tweet me if you loved it or even if you hated it.

Stay safe out there, wear your mask, and let’s try to stay calm and support each other while we all deal with the chaos around us.

Seth Rogen and Jay Chou in The Green Hornet

This unconventional team is exactly what makes this film feel new and different from the Iron Man explosion fests of the world. … Read entire article »

My weekend at Comic Con (aka the best weekend ever!)

I had the chance to go to my very first Comic Con this year with Trashwire and I had so much fun that I’m already dreaming of next year. I took over 400 pictures, but I put all the best ones in the photo galleries on trashwire.com.

Some of my faves:

Of course, my favorite part of it all was the two panels with Gerard Way. I took a zillion pictures and videos from both the Dark Horse panel and the Spotlight on Gerard Way panel, but these two are my favorites.
