Manic Expression

You will believe they spent hundreds of millions of dollars to make this movie

Have you ever utterly loved and completely been frustrated by a film? That is my reaction to Man of Steel. Magnificent in some respects and headache-ind...

CHAPTER ELEVEN:

MENACE

It must have been November because the wind had a near winter bite and the leaves lay dead in carpets on the hardening ground. I sat uncomfortable on watch in the bird's nest thirty feet from the earth. In the short time they had together, Bambi and our grandfather had built a small wooden platform on top of the highest tree at the edge of the farm. It must have been hard work but it was worth it.

I could see nearly six hundre...

Hello & Welcome back to Trotting Through Life. Something I haven't touched upon yet in this series is the IDW comic book series but as soon I saw the last page of Issue # 6, I knew that I had to talk about it. Currently, the comic is in it's second arc and the comic introduced a new villain. Nightmare Rarity. My reaction to Nightmare Rari...

I do not think this needs any lengthy introduction. The Spider-man movies, I'm sure some 90% of us here have seen them (both the Sam Rami ones & the reboot) or at least one of them. The one that is being discussed - Spider-man 3 - was seen as a disappointment; and I cannot see many of the complaints personally. I thought it was quite enjoyable.

Lightning Can Strike Twice

I'm going to come right our and admit that I really didn't give Barry Allen's return as the Flash a chance when it first happened back in 2009. I never really cared about Barry Allen outside of his death in Crisis on Infinite...

The Jaks Five Reasons the Jonah Hex Movie Sucks

As you know, I am fan of comic books. And while there are many great films based on them, we are here today to talk about one of the shittier ones. That’s right; it’s Jonah Hex, one of the more underrated characters from DC. This movie had a ton of potential and they fucked it up. So let’s begin.

5. Shitty action scenes

Happy Easter, everybody! Sorry for yet again a long absense. I really ha...

I'm going into this with a caveat: I'm an X-Men fanboy, and a fan of Marvel in general over DC. So before this 1999 trade, I'd never picked up a single Teen Titans book in my life.

I HAVE caught just about every episode of the DCAU in existence, from the ground-breaking Batman and Superman animated series all the way up through Justice League Unlimited, through either rerun or DVD purchase. And I massively enjoyed Glen Murakami's "Teen Titans" and Greg Weisman's "Young Just...

I am a huge fan of comics whether it’s DC, Marvel, Image, you name it and in this series were going to look at characters from comics I have read from ones I like, ones I hate like and overrated characters like the one were going to talk about today...

Here we are folks. I've officially been doing this for an entire year. Since I started with a My Heroes series of articles spotlighting black heroes, let's do that in honor of that first post from February 4th, 2012. As such, I'll be spotlighting Luke Cage, Hero for Hire.

Folks, once again my birthday is upon us and last year, I dedicated an entire week to my favorite film, Dumbo. This year however, I've decided to turn my attention to how a certain aspect of something I'm familiar with has been portrayed by Disney. That is Scouting. As you see for the longest time of my life, I was a Boy Scout and I am the only person in my famil...
