Cyberpunk: Edgerunners — Masking Melancholy with Punk Attitude

The challenging task of adapting a video game property into a show or film has always been difficult due to how distinct the mediums are from each other. The various attempts made over the years have often been met with negative reception, especially if the adaptation strays too far from…

Zack Snyder’s Justice League — A Fully Realized Vision

Let’s face it: the 2017 theatrical release of Justice League was a poorly handled mishmash of ideas which tried to abide by strict studio demands. The film was almost entirely reshot leaving only snippets of its original outline/vision. To be fair, it’s very understandable why Warner Bros. enforced these decisions…

Snowpiercer Season 1 — Review

I’ll be honest: the notion of creating a series that was already adapted for the big screen seemed silly to me. The 2013 movie Snowpiercer, starring Chris Evans and directed by Bong Joon-ho, was great on its own. …

Anime Recommendation: Your Lie in April

There’s something compelling about a show where the main character isn’t always in the best place, whether it be emotionally, mentally or socially. Your Lie In April explores this with Kosei Arima, a piano prodigy from a young age who overshadowed everyone with his superior musical talent. …

Ad Astra — Minimal and Reflective

(Originally written on October 9, 2019) The vastness of space has always intrigued me, and even more so when depicted in film. I’ve enjoyed movies with ‘realistic’ representations (Apollo 13), and ones with more fictitious settings (Star Trek/Wars, Interstellar, Armageddon). …

(Originally written on August 21, 2019) I remember years ago when my brother checked out a couple of DVDs from the library, with one of them titled ‘Cowboy Bebop’. Initially, I wasn’t impressed and assumed it was just another generic animated show. After watching the first five episodes, I became…
