Honestly, Venom Was OK

Venom was a huge success and made a ton of money! So not only are we going to get a sequel, we’re also going to get a bunch of unconnected movies like Morbius and Kraven. Because Sony Pictures doesn’t understand that it was Venom himself that sold the movie, not their movie-making techniques. Nobody gives a crap about Morbius.

Honest Trailers nails some of the major complaints about Venom. But it’s like shooting fish in a barrel.

My 6 Most Anticipated Movies of 2019

Happy 2019, everyone! Let’s hope it’s a good year! I’ve got a couple of fires on the burner. Expect some big Gamer Girl & Vixen news this month! And there’s a ton of new movies I’m really excited to see! Let’s talk about those.

Movie 2019 List 01

Going to see movies has become a really involved hobby of mine. I like to do some short, quippy reviews on Facebook afterwards, and I’ve been writing full-on reviews for my newspaper day job for a few months now. I just love seeing movies! Even with MoviePass out of my life, I still like heading to the theater and taking in a flick. And these are the six movies I’m most excited to see going into the new year!

Have You Heard of Pitch Meeting?

My brother turned me onto these videos from Screen Rant. A dude named Ryan George does this rapid back-and-forth pitch meetings for popular movies, with the screenwriter pitching the movie to the studio executive. They’re pretty funny! Here’s the newest one, for X-Men: First Class:

There’s a whole bunch of these, and I’ve been marathoning them pretty heavily over the past day or so. They’re a good bit!

My 6 Favorite Things of 2018

It’s that time of year again! My annual roundup of the pop culture I enjoyed, just like every other website and blog worth its salt. But unlike those fancy pants websites with their paid writers and access to advanced screenings, I’m just a schlub typing away at his computer, enjoying what sweet little things come my way!

2018 List 01

Thank god it’s almost over

2018 has been an OK year, I guess. I don’t have any major accomplishments to brag about. I’m still working on making my own comics, with more Gamer Girl & Vixen news to come in the new year. I haven’t lost any weight, but I remain confident that maybe I will someday. And I’m not dead yet! That always counts for something.

The following list is just my favorite, most memorable shows, movies, toys and whatnot I encountered in 2018. Some things, like movies, were released on 2018. Other things, like TV shows and comics, are often ongoing and extend beyond just 2018, but they were my favorites in 2018. It’s not that complicated. And, as always, I am wholly out of touch with new music, so that’s not a category.

Feel free to share your own favorite things from the past year in the comments!
