Let's Talk About The Riddler

Let's talk about The Riddler. I've been threatening to do this for awhile now but after seeing how The Riddler in FOX's "Gotham" broke bad, my jimmies have been EXTREMELY rustled about portrayal of The Riddler in live action media. Needless to say, THEY'VE SUCKED!! The Riddler is actually my favorite Batman villain. Heresy, I know, mostly because everyone is a fan of The Joker (especially after Heath Ledger's iconic portrayal of him) but for my money it's always been "That Green Gentlemen". My love for The Riddler stems from my love of riddles, cryptic stories, puzzles, mazes and things of that sort. Hell, The Sphinx has always been my favorite mythological creature because it asks you riddles. Anyways, I am writing this article to pitch my idea for crafting the perfect live action Riddler. So let's dive in!

The Following S03E10 "Evermore" Review

Monday is a busy day for yours truly and here we are with the 2nd review of the day, "The Following". Last week, The Bret Hart of Serial Killers, Dr. Strassus' star pupil Theo reached out to Joe Carroll in order to obtain a code, for what? I assumed it was the rest of Dr. Strassus' students, but in actuality, it turned out to be something different. Anyways, because of Theo's house call, Joe was able to obtain a pair of sunglasses to fashion into a crude shank. Now we come to the fruition of that and boy do we have a lot to talk about.

Gotham S01E21 "The Anvil Or The Hammer" Review

So last week's episode concluded with Barbara entering into Christian Grey's oops, I mean The Ogre's 50 Shades Of Grey room, quite the cliff-hanger, NOT. In other news, Penguin finally managed to set up Maroni at his favorite bar.  Meanwhile, Edward Nygma finally broke bad by stabbing the boyfriend of Ms. Kringle. I've been saying for awhile now that this show needs to do something balls to the walls crazy if it's gonna get renewed and with one episode left, it needs to do that now more than ever! Does the penultimate episode bring certain events to a head? Let's get to the play by play.

A "Grimm" Dilemma Part Two

So I've written about my issues with "Grimm" before, but I think now is the perfect time for a very unfortunate "I told you so.". "Grimm" has been on NBC for all of 4 Seasons and it has been renewed for a 5th (somehow) and yet with those 4 Seasons...nothing has happened. Yes, I understand Adalind got pregnant and had a super baby, Wu now knows about Wesen and Juliette is a Hexenbiest, yes, those things did happen...but...ultimately those things mean nothing and I'll explain why.

The Following S03E09 "Kill The Messenger" Review

Review number 2 today (Gosh, Mondays are gonna be really busy for me, aren't they?). But I think I have a lot more good to say about "The Following" than I did about "Gotham". This episode saw a few things come into play that I'm actually pretty excited about, but we'll see as this curious season progresses. So let's get to it, shall we?

Gotham S01E20 "Under The Knife" Review

Howdy Kiddos, sorry for doing these reviews the day after but I got tired, so sue me. Anyways we're back at it with "Gotham" and while Fish Mooney didn't return in this episode (Thank God!) unfortunately, Jim Gordon's dumb as four rocks Ex-Girlfriend appeared in this episode now being targeted by Christian Grey's much more sadistic little brother, The Ogre...a storyline which I'm surprised is still going on. A few things happen in this episode and we'll get to those things now.

The Strange Review: The Babadook

I wanted to do a video, and in all honesty, I did a video but the footage was crappy (last time I use a low light filter) so unfortunately I won't be posting videos. That begin said, my wife and I recently watched this movie and I wanted to discuss it because this is one of those "Take The Time" kinda movies. Movies that require a 1st, 2nd & 3rd viewing to really "get it". "The Babadook" is a movie about a woman named Amelia and her son Samuel. Amelia lost her husband in a tragic car accident seven years ago on the day Samuel was born. Samuel is an EXTREMELY hyper active child who is obsessed with monsters and sees them everywhere they go. When Samuel chooses a story for his mom to read to him at night, Samuel selects a book she's never seen before "Mister Babadook", a book about a boogeyman type creature that later goes on to terrorize them at every opportunity. So in case you haven't seen it, I encourage you to check it out as this review will contain spoilers.So let's dive into "The Babadook".
