It’s hard to believe there was a time when The Avengers were basically the also-ran’s of the Marvel Universe. I mean, the X-Books were huge ever since the late Bronze Age thanks to Claremont’s work from the late 1970’s to the early 1990’s and the establishment of Wolverine as the […]

Movie Review: Jojo Rabbit
Jojo Rabbit looked so damn risky when I first started seeing trailers for it. I mean, let’s be honest: World War II was eighty years ago. EIGHTY YEARS! That is by no mean insubstantial. World War II was as close to the Civil War as it is to the current […]
Movie Review Time: Parasite
I mentioned recently that I really wanted to see Parasite, but knew little about it going in. I thought it was for the best that I keep it that way and try to see the movie as soon as possible to see what all the buzz was about. I’m glad […]
Stew’s Top Ten Video Games of the 2010’s!
Here’s the thing about me… I am not much of a gamer. I LIKE video games; I PLAY video games damn frequently. But it’s more that I’m not good at games, and because of that, I tire of individual titles easily. I also have a bad penchant for buying games […]
Top Ten Movies of the 2010’s I Still Need To See
I’M STILL DOING 2010’s MOVIES LISTS. Look, it’s just kind of a thing I am going through right now, and I promise we’ll all ride it out together. How long can it last? It will be entirely passé by the end of January, right? Decades are big, though! I was […]
Stew’s Reviews: Batman & The Outsiders
See, I was supposed to have the closings on my house and the house I’m buying this week, but my buyer has run into problems, so everything has been pushed back, probably about a month. In the meantime, the wife and I have already packed up almost all of our […]
Stew’s Reviews: Heroes In Crisis
What are the time parameters for spoilers? As in, at what point do you bear the burden of protecting yourself from being spoiled rather than depend on social media and society to do it for you? I always say in regards to big blockbuster movies, the limit should be until […]
Stew’s Top Ten Comic Book Movies of the 2010’s!
I really like to tackle similar ideas from slightly different angles. You see, we here Ghosts of the Stratosphere have done our Top Ten Non-Comics Flicks of the 2010’s (and here are Andy’s list, Chad’s list, and our guest-star Johnny Ganache’s). And we as a group have done our list of […]
Stew’s Best Horror Films of the 2010’s
I was improperly raised on horror movies as a child, as I have detailed before. In addition to the semi-regular Jason-based nightmares that are just ingrained in my DNA at this point, it has given me a lifelong love of the genre. Horror cinema just combines some of the best […]
Stew’s Reviews: Maus
Recently on the podcast, we covered Watchmen. Honestly, it’s one of my favorite episodes we have ever done. It’s really high quality stuff, and I think we all put in good work discussing an important, brilliant book. But as the show was wrapping up, I brought up something I remembered […]
Stew’s Top Ten Songs of the 2010’s!
(The Playlist of my Top Ten! Play it in the background while you read for maximum effect!) It’s mid-December, so it’s List Challenge time! What’s more, it’s still the end of the 2010’s, so we have another Best of the 2010’s list. As you might remember, in November, we presented […]
Movie Review: Knives Out
Remember a few weeks ago when we posted our Top Ten Flicks of the 2010’s? I probably should have had us wait until December to do that. I say that because on 12/15, I finally got around to seeing Rian Johnson’s modern update on the throwback whodunnit mystery genre, Knives […]
