Vids: The Hunger Games: Mockingjay Part 2 Blu-Ray Review

 

I am not usually one to use cliché phrases but it is kind of appropThe-Hunger-Games-Mockingjay-Part-2-Blu-rayriate in the case of the Hunger Games franchise that all things must come to an end. I had been a fan of Suzanne Collins’ Hunger Games books long before the movies were released and I hoped the adaptations would be faithful to the source material. Now I am also going to utter a phrase that I positively hate; the books were better; in this case only by a slim margin. Continue reading

Equipment: Alien Prop Replica Hat from Diamond Select

People no longer hide their geek side. We live in a world wherDSCN3263e being a geek is becoming almost acceptable. I remember when I was a kid I dressed as a Sandman from Logan’s Run for Halloween and no one knew what I was supposed to be. After telling people that I was a Sandman I was informed repeatedly that the Sandman didn’t carry a gun. I finally gave in and started telling people I was a “cop from the future.” Sure Logan’s Run is a bit obscure even for today’s geek savvy populace but there are other movies from the 1970’s that are more mainstream such as Alien. Ridley Scott’s masterpiece of Sci-Fi/Horror did for outer space what Jaws did for the beach.  Even casual fans of that movie and the subsequent sequels know about Weyland-Yutani or simply, “The Company” and even if they can’t remember the name of corporation that owned the Nostromo, they know the ship. Continue reading

Equipment: Central City Police Badge from DC Collectibles

 

When you become a detective you get your gold shield. ThDSCN3237is is a Big Deal. Moving up from “beat cop” to detective is more about the bump in prestige than the bump in pay.

This is true for real world police officers as well as those who serve and protect in Central City. Now you get a chance to get your own gold shield without all the hard work. Continue reading

Vids: Justice League vs Teen Titans from Warner Brothers Animation Review

I have said this before but: the animated movies from WarnerJLTT-BD-Combo-1-763x1024 Brothers are highly entertaining and enjoyable.  The newest offering from Warner Brothers is called Justice League vs. Teen Titans. The mere mention of Teen Titans had me a bit worried. I was afraid this movie was going to be like the awful Teen Titans Go cartoon airing on Cartoon Network, but fortunately this movie isn’t played for laughs. Continue reading

Equipment: Diamond Select Toys at Toy Fair 2016…

Every year I look forward to Toy Fair. Sure, it is NYC in February and the weather is never cooperative (see previous posts on the subject) but Toy Fair is a big deal for me.DSCN3079 These four days are my Super Bowl, my Stanley Cup, my Final Four, my (god just shut up!)….you get where I am going. I am a geek and a toy fan and Toy Fair is like going to Santa’s workshop for me. All four days are jam packed with booth tours and interviews and I still miss out on some booths, which just proves you can’t go everywhere, at least not in four days. There are however some “must stops” I can’t pass by. One of these “must stops” is the Diamond Select booth; Diamond Select never disappoints. Continue reading
