Time Bandits (1981)
You know it’s been a hell of a week when Movie Night is just dedicated to actors who have recently died. Case in point, Mr. David Warner passed away at the age of 80, just shy of his 81st birthday (which is today, by the way). There were so many things we could’ve watched to remember him–one friend suggested Tron, I had In the Mouth of Madness queued up, and there was the possibility of just watching several episodes of Batman: The Animated Series that featured Ra’s al Ghul.

Thor: Love and Thunder (2022)
COVID fucked up a lot of stuff. Case in point, Marvel celebrated the release of Thor: Love and Thunder because that meant they had finally caught up with all the projects announced at San Diego Comic Con 2019 (that had a release date).

Life (2017)
I will never not be amazed at how some movies just… sneak past me.

And it’s a sci-fi horror? This feels like an intentional slight and I will not stand for it.

Arrow – Season 2, Episodes 1-2
Oh man, it’s been a minute. Remember back when I would occasionally talk about TV shows? I mean sure, I did wrap up Centaurworld after coming back from my hiatus, but it’s been a year since I last talked about Arrow. Similar to how my work schedule has made it hard to watch movies while giving me time to read comics on the clock, squeezing in a 42 minute TV episode isn’t too difficult. And so I’m continuing my coverage of the expansive Arrowverse! But first, a recap of season 1.
