I think it says something that in the wake of this whole Szechuan Sauce thing that everyone seems to be focused on the supposedly “cringey” Rick and Morty Fans and their reactions and NOT the horribly botched attempt at promotional relevancy that McDonald’s made. I mean, this wasn’t some spur of the moment thing. There was…

So did you all see that Season 3 finale? Wowee. Nothings gonna be the same ever again, huh? Except the parts where they explicitly stated they are going to be the same again. *cough* Anyway… Rick and Morty is one of those shows that is hard to get a beat on simply because it has…

Leave it to Laika to remind you that quality animation is not solely in the pocket of Big Mouse. After their amazing interpretation of Neil Gaiman’s Coraline, their homage to classic horror and Goonies-esque 80’s adventure films with ParaNorman, and a wild urban fairy tale with The Box Trolls, brings us a new treat in…

Oh. Oh sweet merciful fal’Cie. What the hell did I watch? My fiance and I went to the Alamo Drafthouse to see the Funimation Films presentation of ‘Empire of Corpses’.

I was roughly familiar with the source material: a 90’s-tastic Japanese super hero team created by the ever loathsome Scott Lobdell and starring every Japanese movie stereotype…

They always find a way to pull me back don’t they? My twitter followers may remember a while back when I ranted and raved about the ending to the first season of Korra, where they stripped the villain of any back story or motivation they had thoroughly established for the sake of a less than…

As regular readers know, I’m a grown ass man who loves him some animation. There’s no shame in that. I also like the Star Wars prequels and the Matrix sequels. There is some shame in that. That’s off topic though. I wanted to talk a bit about a wonderful little film I saw that I’m…

So I finally got around to seeing Frozen. Yes, you can pick your jaws up off the floor, I know it took me a while. But I’m not a young spry chap with infinite free time that can see every animated film that comes out like I was back in college. But those who know…

Back when I was but a pain-in-the-butt youth, I took a film studies class that loved to overanalyze old movies. We once spent over 12 hours going shot by shot through the entirety of Citizen Kane. While I can never watch Citizen Kane ever again, I did pick up the skills to sit there and…
