Fortitude “not like Lost” says exec producer, “every question will be answered”

Burt Reynolds: Portrait Of A Superstar – what we learned

Well, not really. Before we get to the text though, the first thing that grabs you are the pictures. If you like shirtless 70s dudes with big moustaches, youre in for a treat. Its basically an unironic Ron Burgundy lookbook. Gaze upon Reynolds wearing nothing but Speedos gallivanting in a swimming pool with legendary stuntman-turned-director Hal Needham. Swoon at Burt andGatorco-star Lauren Hutton wearing one chunky knitwear cardigan big enough to fit both of them....

The Flash: The Nuclear Man review

Firestorm meets The Flash in the latest episode of The Flash and things get hot with Linda Park. Here’s Mike’s review… ThisThe Flashreview contains spoilers. I did not love tonights episode ofThe Flash. The problem was in the delivery. Im not opposed to keeping Barrys romantic subplot with Iris going. They have to end up together eventually. Im not opposed to giving the dude a sex life, either. I think Malese Jow is great as Linda Park and certainly good fun on screen....

Better Call Saul: Mijo, Review

Part two of Better Call Saul’s premiere revs up the action and features some familiar faces. Im not in the game! However, knowing what hell become takes away a bit from that life or death situations. For instance, the way the episode handles Chuck and his illness. Nachos measured approach and handling of Tuco suggested that he may be the Heisenberg to Tucos Jessie. When Nacho came knocking on Jimmys sad office/bedroom door, I leaned forward in my chair....

Jeff Lemire Interview: Descender, All-New Hawkeye, and More

It wasnt long ago that Jeff Lemires days were spent primarily playing in the DC Comics/Vertigo sandbox. Each one of those three characters sort of provides a different point of view into that world. Quon really exemplifies the universe. Telsa is an interesting character. And then Tim is very much… well, Tim is a mystery. But Tim is the most human character in the book even though hes not human....

Jupiter Ascending Review

But does it work? ThisJupiter Ascendingreview contains spoilers. Rather,Jupiteris about a girl with that exact fortuitous name. …If all this sounds confusing, dont worry, its much worse than you know. Instead of a visionary melding of space and fantasy (with some allusions toBlade Runnerfashion to boot! ),Jupiter Ascendingis obtusely suffocating with its decadent and inescapably artificial pageantry. He is appropriately loyal and stoic, but the Han Solo role calls for more than well-trained obedience....
