On Saturday, my brother-in-law and I spent the day doing some construction and repair work on the deck for the family pool, and we started out the day by listening to Oliver Anthony’s first full-length album, “Hymnal of a Troubled Man’s Mind,” which he released on Easter Sunday. This isn’t a review of the […]
As the crowd gathered at Fulton County Stadium 50 years ago tonight, the fans anticipated that history would take place. For one night, Atlanta was the center of the baseball universe, and Atlanta Braves star Henry “Hank” Aaron didn’t disappoint. The media anticipated the night’s excitement, too. NBC covered […]
Spider-Man is one of the most popular superheroes in the world, across any franchise. In fact, by some metrics (like total comic book sales) skinny, little Peter Parker can stand toe-to-toe with the Batmans and the Supermans of the world when it comes to overall popularity, if not outright beat them. And Spider-Man has maintained […]
A rare item sold at an auction has revealed that Superman — and potentially comic book history — could have turned out drastically different. And that’s not some multiversal nonsense. Heritage Auctions sold a number of legendary Superman memorabilia on Thursday, and they included some genuine whoppers. The crown jewel of the auction is the […]
There are two titanic pillars of the video game industry currently, and you’ve likely heard of at least one of them. “Fortnite,” a battle royale shooter, is effectively the most popular game in the world and it’s not close.

However, in the last few years, a growing cultural shift to independent entertainment has become apparent. Independent films with traditional values from conservative film houses like Angel Studios (“Sound of Freedom,” “Cabrini”) […]
Given Hollywood’s insistence on eschewing originality for the sake of franchises, sequels and remakes, it should come as little surprise that some classic Hollywood monsters are getting another crack at the limelight. While some of those monsters, like Godzilla and King Kong, have made the most of that new spotlight, others (anyone else remember Tom […]
Since returning in 2022, Disney CEO Bob Iger has paid a lot of lip service in regards to addressing and righting what ails the Walt Disney Company. His company’s actions and blame-deflection have tarnished the once-sterling Disney brand. Despite that, Iger insists that things will be okay and that they will fix everything — but can you […]
While perhaps not a “superhero” film per se, the 2019 hit “Joker” was a shockingly fresh breath of air in the genre.
