WandaVision and the Future of the MCU: The Craziness Has Just Begun
**This article features spoilers to many MCU films and WandaVision** Despite an ongoing discourse to the contrary, the Marvel Cinematic Universe is an ever-evolving art project with twists, turns, switcheroos, what-have-yous, and WTFs. I’m not here to argue the merits of the cinematic value of the MCU (or, at least, not in this article. Anyone […] More

A Bucs Eye View on Super Bowl LV and the Future
It has been my distinct pleasure to give everyone a Bucs Eye View of things in the 2020/2021 NFL season. Being a Buccaneers fan was, for a time, a lonely experience, especially since I lived outside of Tampa proper for so long. I’ve lived in Arizona for the last twenty-plus years and, for most of […] More

Star Trek: The Original Series — “The Enemy Within”
The best part about watching Star Trek, in most of its iterations, is that you get multi-dimensional storytelling: you get the moments that appeal to your inner nerd, sure, but you also get heady discussions on the purpose of being.

The Twilight Zone: “The Who of You”
After an impressive opening salvo of “Meet in the Middle” and “Downtime”, The Twilight Zone hits the first snag of its second season with the action-packed, but intellectually light, “The Who of You”.
