Those About To Die Series Review (Season 1)
Since the days of Ben-Hur, sword-and-sandal epics have captivated many audiences. Ancient Rome has entered the small-screen many times before with Spartacus and other efforts. The latest release is Those About To Die from Roland Emmerich and Marco Kreuzpaintner, an ambitious effort that ultimately spreads itself too thin.

House of the Dragon
We ended the last episode with Jace and Rhaenyra planning to get unclaimed dragons riders to turn this war in her favor. Alicent finally realized that she’s a dumb cunt who picked the wrong side. And Aemond is ruling in his brother's sted. We are almost all the way through this second season, there being only 8 episodes this season and they are really dragging this out as long as humanly possible. So let’s get into it.

The Boys
A lot has happened this season on The Boys, and there are a lot of loose ends to tie up. Homelander and Neumann are planning on killing the president, Sage is out on her own, Annie has been captured, and Butcher is basically dead. There is one season left and this finale episode not only needs to tie up all of those loose ends, but they also need set up the final season (and I would really appreciate it if they would give us something for Gen V season 2).

Villainess Review: Bridget Stone (Death Down the Aisle)
I've watched these amazing Lifetime thrillers for over twenty years, and while I have marveled over how they've evolved over the years, there's one thing I learned a number of years ago: when it comes to villainesses, the best ones come during playoff time. By that, I mean, Lifetime films that air during the playoffs of any sport seem to deliver the most amazing villainesses, and in my recent experiences, the real good ones come between April and June (Stanley Cup and NBA Playoff time). Even the month of March (the month before it all starts) gives us some good ones.

My Review of "Wreck: Season 1"
Wreck: Season 1 came out back in 2022 and it's an oddball of a TV show. It's definitely geared toward the young adult demographic but the rest of adults can still enjoy this. There's some fun to be had in this but I don't know if everyone will be totally on board with this one.

My Review of "The Lost World: Jurassic Park"
The Lost World: Jurassic Park came out back in 1997. It was a hotly anticipated sequel to the original. I was even excited to watch this despite forgetting that I didn't like it back in the day. Maybe I needed a little reminder as to why I didn't like this movie in the first place. There are a lot of elements of this movie that emulate the first movie but for the most part it fails. I think I would be more into this movie if I enjoyed horror movies back in the day.

Power Rangers Review: "The Mutiny: Part III"
This landmark special arc began with a huge bang: the debut of Lord Zedd. Part I saw Zedd eject Rita Repulsa from the moon palace due to her numerous failures to defeat the Power Rangers, and it ended with Zedd releasing the Pirantishead monster, who froze four of the five Dinozords. Things were turned up in Part II, as Pirantishead placed Tyrannosaurus and Dragonzord under his evil control, resulting in Zordon presenting brand new Zords to the Rangers: the Thunderzords.

Cosplay Review: Scarlet Witch from “WandaVision”
During the uncertain times of the COVID-19 Pandemic in 2020, I embarked on a captivating cosplay journey, transforming myself into the enigmatic Wanda Maximoff from Captain America: Civil War and Avengers: Infinity War. With my sister as my talented photographer, we ventured to a nearby park, where she captured my essence as Wanda in stunning photographs. After carefully selecting my favorite shots, I eagerly shared them on social media, hoping to bring a spark of joy to the Marvel cosplay community. The response I received was overwhelmingly positive, ranging from heartfelt comments appreciating my dedication to bringing Wanda to life during these challenging times to individuals sharing and reposting my photos with their followers.
