All right, time to tackle Shazam! for real this time. It hasn’t been long since we’ve had a DC movie, so let’s see if it triumphs like Wonder Woman or eats pavement like Suicide Squad.

Holy… wow. I didn’t think I’d get this lucky in my lifetime. Someway, somehow, I scored a special viewing of the movie everyone’s been talking about for a long time. It’s such an honor… I honestly don’t know what to say. Well… guess there’s no point in delaying it. Click on and read about the movie we’ve all been waiting for.

I’ve been sitting on this one for almost a month, trying to get it just right. It’s a sensitive topic, but one that I have a lot of opinions on. Granted, I’m not the only one and this probably would have been a lot more relevant had this come out right after the Oscars, but given how sensitive the topic is, I wanted to do my best to present my arguments in the best way possible. So without further ado, let’s look at why the Oscars are stupid about race.
The White Filmmaker’s Green-Book

Just under the wire, let’s look at the next of what will hopefully be the very long Jordan Peele oeuvre.

Iiiiiiiiiit’s MCU time! One of my favorite heroes has made it to the silver screen and it scratches the itch that won’t go away until Avengers: Endgame comes out. Not to mention, we get to rub this movie’s success in the faces of some sexist wads. Higher, further, faster, baby!

Ahh, what a ride this has been. Of course, they could pull a total Toy Story and make a fourth one, but if this is to be the end… what a ride.
How To Train Your Dragon: The Hidden World

Woo-hoo! Beat the Oscars to the punch this year. Of course, I’m not a qualified Oscar-teer or whatever you call them, but that’s okay because I’ve got my own system of rating movies. So without further ado, let’s start the countdown!

Hope you all had a fun President’s Day. And by fun, I mean remembering better days and better Presidents. Now without further ado, let’s bust out the bricks!
The Lego Movie 2: The Second Part

Let’s head back to the world of theater on TV. Admittedly, it’s not so much theater as much as it is a concert DVD, but, well… let’s take a look.

In a twist of fate that I did not predict, the sequel to last year’s The Death of Superman premiered this month rather than at this coming San Diego Comic Con. Suffice to say, it’s like getting Christmas half a year early.
