The Review at the End of the Universe
Never did I imagine the website would make it to 2000 posts but here it is. I’ll put more of a reflection on what that means for me -and hopefully the rest of the team at the end but I thought it would be prudent to star talking about how I decided to honour this…
DC offers up another animated adventure in Sam Liu’s Batman and Harley Quinn. Despite being a fan of the DC Animated movies I’ve never actually written about them. The overall quality of them is somewhat mixed but I enjoy them for the most part. Adapting DC’s back catalogue of stories in animated form is a…
Kneel Before Pod is trying out a new feature where people get together and discuss trailers for upcoming films they’re excited about. This edition focuses on Justice League and Spider-Man: Homecoming. The discussion on Justice League features Craig, Chris and Aaron and the discussion on Spider-Man: Homecoming features Craig and Sandy. Craig and Aaron can…
The podcasts continue with a discussion of the divisive Batman V Superman: Dawn of Justice. Myself (Craig), Aaron and Angus got together to discuss the recently released Ultimate Edition and mull over whether it’s a better film than the theatrical version or not. Natalie drops in for a brief cameo towards the end as well….
Zack Snyder’s Batman V Superman: Dawn of Justice finally gives DC and Warner Brothers the right to add themselves to the club of having a cinematic universe. It is only two films deep but that was Marvel once upon a time and other attempt to replicate that have been unsuccessful so it is a club…
Gotham season 2 is almost upon us so it’s a good time to revisit season 1 and reflect on it as a whole before the second season starts doing its thing. This is a very tough show to talk about because there was so much going on while there was so little going on so…
“All Happy Families Are Alike” It’s finally done, Gotham season 1 comes to an end after several torturous months of missed opportunities. The gang war comes to a serious head as Fish Mooney returns to take advantage of the situation. It’s been known for a while that Jada Pinkett Smith would not be returning for…
“The Anvil or the Hammer” Only one more Gotham episode after this one for season 1 and the Ogre/Barbara plot is brought to a definitive close. It appears that I was a little too kind on Gotham last week when I expressed how impressed I was by how the show was handling the Ogre and…
“Under the Knife” A mere 2 episodes left of the first season of Gotham after this one and I’m still no closer to figuring out what the point of this season has been. This show has tossed a lot of things into the mix but never really capitalised on any of them. Some promise existed…
“Beasts of Prey” Gotham returns from having a few weeks off and I can honestly say I didn’t really miss it. It’s no secret that I have been incredibly underwhelmed by this show on the whole. It has good elements but is really missing out on some obvious potential. This episode is no real exception…
