#CastlevaniaNocturne still rules; I just wish they gave it enough episodes to fully explore the narrative they set up

#PeterPansNeverlandNightmare is a pretty good low-budget horror movie that remains way too in love with the Twisted Childhood Universe premise

#SecretLevel did a pretty good job with the #warhammer40k license, right?

"In both Scream and Beetlejuice Beetlejuice, she played spiritual successors to classic horror heroines. She’s not entirely stuck in the past, however. Ortega also finds time in her busy schedule to appear in total misfires."

#JennaOrtega

"The grim monstrosity that became the SSU started after The Amazing Spider-Man 2. It’s mostly the brainchild of Avi Arad, allegedly the producer who shoved Venom into Spider-Man 3."

"I’d like to say that this is a low point for director Pierre Morel, but it’s par for the course."

"Like its source material, Robert Eggers’ adaptation is a vibes-based experience. The script is fine, but the imagery, music, and production design carry the experience."

#Moana2 is... fine. It looks great, kids will love it, but it's just impossible to shake how much better the first one is in pretty much every conceivable way

#RedOneMovie was destined to play in the background of family get-togethers, and I don't know why they delayed that purpose by sending it to theaters. I thought it was boring and pointless, but reasonable people can disagree. Here's my review

At long last, my interview with production designer Kalina Ivanov for #ThePenguin is available to read. She was endlessly compelling and her additional context adds a lot to an already excellent show

I remain fascinated by this franchise I don't much enjoy

#AgathaAllAlong is a lot of fun so far. I don't think it's as sharp as WandaVision, but it's funny and charming. It's playing with tones we don't often get out of Marvel. Also, the costume and set designers really deliver

[Joshua McCoy @joshmccoywrites]

#BeetlejuiceBeetlejuice Is gonna make a lot of people really happy. It's a wild ride with next to no concern for a lot of the things that make a movie a movie, but I still had a pretty good time with it

Here's my full review of #AlienRomulus for @thenerdstash
It's free from any major spoilers, and I look forward to the discussions everyone will be having in a week or two. https://t.co/hyJ7RZndiy

@EssexD94676 @CZJames20 You'll definitely get what you paid for, and I enjoyed most of it, but it's a bit of a downer to see the multi-million-dollar franchise cement the process of eating itself

[Joshua McCoy @joshmccoywrites]

#AlienRomulus Is one of the most frustrating films I've seen in a while. I can't praise the visual and auditory elements enough; I just wish it was about something other than how great the other Alien movies are. Enjoy the thrills, but don't expect anything especially innovative

[Joshua McCoy @joshmccoywrites]

@CZJames20 There's some truth to that. I mean more on a thematic level, but it's definitely a solid Alien film. I'd compare it more to a movie-length virtual rollercoaster than anything else and I can absolutely recommend it on those grounds

[Joshua McCoy @joshmccoywrites]

@ChathamMarc Hey, my bad. I changed the title. I didn't assume the character she'd be playing would be information that people wouldn't already know. I apologize and the title reflects that change

[Joshua McCoy @joshmccoywrites]

I'm so thrilled to share my interview with @LauraBaileyVO about @CriticalRole's Downfall Arc. She was a delight and her excitement was infectious
