Note: just because a film has three A-listers, does not mean it’s going to be good. Such is the case with the latest Netflix film, The Laundromat, which stars powerhouses, Gary Oldman, Antonio Banderas, and Meryl Streep. I’m not saying the performances were bad. Odd, but not bad. The script was the bad part.

TV Recap: Mr. Robot Season 4, Episode 3
Mr. Robot continues to deliver all the punches three episodes in. “Forbidden” opens with the tale of how Whiterose came to be. In the early 80s, he is seen mocking IBM consultants in his native Mandarin to his colleague Peng Chen. In the hotel room, it is revealed that Zhang and Chen are lovers. He hopes that Zhang becomes the Ambassador to the US so they can start living as their true selves: two men in love. This prompts Zhang to present her true self to him, dressed in a wig and her mother’s dress, to which Chen’s response is “you’re beautiful.”

Foals did what The 1975 claimed they were going to do, put out two records in one year. Where The 1975 failed, Foals succeeded! And Everything Not Saved Will Be Lost – Part 2 was by no means an afterthought, or a group of leftover songs. This record tells it’s own story while still keeping with a similar tone to Part 1.
Read moreSeries Review: Fleabag
After months of putting it off, solely based on hype, all those Emmy wins finally convinced me to watch Fleabag! And it was a treat!
Read moreZombieland: Double Tap Review
Nostalgia came back for the weekend with Zombieland: Double Tap. It’s like ten years never even passed (except for maybe Abigail Breslin) on this quest to survive hoards of zombies.
Read moreAmerican Horror Story: 1984 Rundown
Well, five episodes in, and I am unable to see where American Horror Story: 1984 can go now. Seriously, this last episode basically has an end for all our main characters. That doesn’t mean I haven’t enjoyed it! In fact, its campiness and gore is everything I like about the horror genre. So with that, here’s the lowdown on what’s happened at Camp Redwood.
Read moreMr. Robot Season 4, Episode 2: Payment Required
As I said last week, SPOLIERS AHEAD, so don’t keep reading if it’s going to ruin it for you. Instead I’ll start you off with this fun fact that I just discovered. While the titles of all of season 4’s episodes are not in the usual tech-garb with dots and dashes, they are in representative of error codes, hence, “Payment Required.” Nifty!
Read moreWeekend Movie Round-up
Once again, I’m trying to make up for the abysmal job I did last month, so I high-tailed it to the theater twice this weekend! First up was the long awaited (for me) Ad Astra. I know there was a lot of hype around this movie, but it being about space, I was a little skeptical.
Read moreFan Art Friday: Sullivan
It’s time to give some love to one of my favorite bands of all time: Sullivan. I would consider them fairly unknown and that is a damn shame because all three records they’ve released over an hiatus and 15 years is absolutely fantastic! Here’s some throwback mixed media artwork I did back in high school for these guys.
2019 Final Concert Review: Ghost
I really hope I’m joking about this, but sadly I may not be. In which case, you read that right. This is my last schedule concert of the year; therefore, it is the last concert review of 2019. But it was a doozy and a highly entertaining one at that! A solid line-up of Texas-based rockers, Nothing More, opening for, as my co-worker described them, the modern 80s rock band, Ghost!
