The infamously shelved Looney Tunes movie is good! Now, people just have to see it. My review:

I like BATMAN: CAPED CRUSADER -- it embraces the characters' pulp roots, isn't afraid to kill off its characters, and boasts a version of Rose & Thorn (!) that's one for the books -- but I don't love it. Figuring out why is the reason I wrote this:

MADDIE'S SECRET is John Waters mischief, David Wain shagginess, queer-pop giddiness, and a tender heart wrapped in shimmering cellophane -- an uncannily strange yet deeply heartfelt debut that goes down a treat. My review:

Alex Chandon’s Cradle of Fear (2001) is a gory, vicious, and oddly engrossing series of terror tales that combine into one provocative, grueling bloodbath.

MASTERS OF THE UNIVERSE: Mattel's first (though certainly not last) Marvel movie is a colorful toy-smasher that's unyieldingly frivolous and empty-headed in its ideas about positive masculinity. And the weird thing? Leto's kinda great as Skeletor.

Spider-Noir is the stuff that snoozes are made of https://t.co/7lej2k8xvF

[Jarrod Jones @jarrodjones_]

If only SPIDER-NOIR dared the same strange, belligerent corners of the genre as its nervy lead, this middling Marvel effort might have been the stuff dreams are… ah, you get it.
