William Shakespeare’s The Tragedy of MacBeth, or commonly just MacBeth, is my favorite of all his plays. I believe A Midsummer Night’s Dream is probably the best comedy that I like. Hamlet is good but overrated and Romeo and Juliet is more about the dangers of adults feuding that it corrupts youth rather than aContinue reading “‘Tragedy Of MacBeth” More Than Just Sound And Fury”

Honoring Civil Rights Pioneers
Today would’ve been Betty White’s 100th birthday if she was still alive.

Dr. King was born on Jan. 15 but bothContinue reading “Honoring Civil Rights Pioneers”
‘Red Notice’ Tries Too Hard To Start A Franchise That Its Plot Gets Buried
How could an action-adventure-comedy treasure hunt movie starring Gal Gadot, Dwayne Johnson and Ryan Reynolds feel like it belongs unfinished? Red Notice seems more like Firewalker and if anyone remembers that disastrous 1986 movie starring Chuck Norris and Lou Gossett Jr., you know what you’re in for. If anything else like that movie, it provesContinue reading “‘Red Notice’ Tries Too Hard To Start A Franchise That Its Plot Gets Buried”

‘Eternals’ Proves The MCU Isn’t Infallible
Back when the Marvel Cinematic Universe started in the late 2000s, it almost seemed like they were stretching things out over several movies, you kinda wondered what it was all building up to and when. I didn’t really care for the first Captain America movie or the Thor‘s first two movies. I barely remember themContinue reading “‘Eternals’ Proves The MCU Isn’t Infallible”

Alan Rickman died on this day, Jan. 14 in 2016. It came as a shock to a lot of people as he was suffering from pancreatic cancer. It had been diagnosed the previous August when he suffered a minor stroke. Despite the terminal illness, he didn’t tell many people.

‘The Unforgiveable’ Is Totally Forgettable
The Unforgiveable is based on a popular British limited series, Unforgiven, that was broadcast during January 2009.

Reportedly Angelina Jolie wasContinue reading “‘The Unforgiveable’ Is Totally Forgettable”

‘Mother/Android’ Dark, Dull, Depressing
For the past five years of so, Hollywood has been trying so much to sexualize Chloe Grace Moretz that I think she’s choosing to do movies like Mother/Android to show that she’s not a piece of meat. That Neighbors sequel seem to care more about her in a bikini than anything else and even beforeContinue reading “‘Mother/Android’ Dark, Dull, Depressing”
A Win For UGA Shouldn’t Be A Lost
While I’m glad the UGA Bulldogs won the National Championship in football to add to the World Series win for the Atlanta Braves, Georgia residents need to remain vigilant. A year ago, right before the Jan. 6 insurrection, both Jon Ossoff and Raphael Warnock, won the run-off elections to be the two Senators for theContinue reading “A Win For UGA Shouldn’t Be A Lost”
