Rumors swirl (as rumors are wont to do) in Hollywood that Disney is still planning a reboot/remake of their 1979 science fiction epic, ‘The Black Hole.’ As one of the vocal fans of that movie, I am torn by this plan. On the one hand, it’d be lovely to get a new version reawaken interest in the original film, but on the other, I’d kind of rather have a sequel to the original film rather than a re-envisioning. Whitman Comics attempted such a continuation in their comic book line back in the day, but the response to the film put…

There are a few unavoidable things in the universe: Death, taxes, Stephen loving Batman, and the fact that, if you bring up “reality television”, someone will go off on a tirade. To be fair, I share much of the scorn aimed at the genre, but (thanks to my wife loving the competition shows), have found a few interesting moments in episodes of ‘Face/Off’, ‘Survivor’ and even ‘Project Runway.’ This week’s Marvel superheroes challenge on ‘Under The Gunn’ was an interesting one to me, as it put the various fashionistas squarely in my comic book wheelhouse, and managed to match superheroes…
As is my wont on a Friday night, I decompressed by channel-surfing after the family went to bed, giving my ridiculous brain time to stop spinning like Diana Prince in a crisis. This time, I happened upon a screening of ‘Zombieland’ (albeit edited for television, which is a bit of a bummer), giving me a chance to vicariously live the life of a young, single man in a world where Emma Stone has no other romantical options to choose from. As friends for the end of the world go, you could certainly do worse, unless you happened to end up…

Sometimes, no matter how upbeat you try to be, the day crushes your spirit under a bulldozer blade of annoyance, taking your good mood and smashing it to the pavement to build a carpark. Yesterday was one of those days, filled with minor irritations and a couple of Murtaugh-level “I’m-Too-Old-For-This-Stuff” fits of rage, leaving me feeling like Mick Foley after the original ‘Hell In A Cell’ match. (Google it. It’s brutal.) Nonetheless, your humble MS-QOTD tries to stay as positive as possible, so today will be better no matter how many people insist on incessantly using the phrase “You People”,…
This week, things get cold and we don’t know who to trust! Luckily Young Zach has a flame thrower as we take on John Carpenter’s The Thing.
We went to see Captain America: The Winter Solider on opening night, and we are sharing our VERY SPOILERY thoughts and reactions to the movie. WARNING: We’re serious – we spoil this movie. If you haven’t seen the movie, you should listen to this later.
Thing We Want to Live to See Top Five is a show where the hosts categorize, rank, compare, and stratify everything… from cars to gadgets to people and movies. From stuff that is hot, and things that are not nearly as interesting – it’s Top Five. Some of us are old, and some of us are not so old (and some of us are down right young’uns… but that doesn’t stop us from thinking about the future, and what we hope we live long enough to see!
As we await Miles Morales: The Ultimate Spider-Man #1, the final chapter of Ultimate Spider-Man is here! Matthew and Stephen sit down to discuss what worked, and what didn’t in Ultimate Spider-Man #200.
As followers of the Major Spoilers Podcast will tell you, your humble MS-QOTD is still a bit broken up over the events of the final episode of ‘How I Met Your Mother’ earlier in the week. As finales go, it went far above and beyond the usual scope of “Everybody gets new job and hugs it out” into a higher level of wrapping it up, and the response from the fans has been, to say the least, mixed. Many internet wags have already dubbed it “The ‘Lost’ of sitcoms”, while others have begun compiling their Top 10 Worst Finales list,…
