I don't know anything. I'm just guessing and wanting. I'll be more interested if Sadie Sink is Firestar than Marvel Girl. Peter has no friends. Give him her and Bobby and Ms. Lion and we're all eating. Real Spider-Man shyt.
Got out of my own way and made another Action Figure video. Please check it out if you're interested!

Nolan's #TheOdysseyMovie is far more than an adaptation of Homer's epic. It's a meditation on war, leadership, & the burden of coming home. Matt Damon is excellent, Anne Hathaway & Tom Holland bring real emotional weight, & John Leguizamo delivers an awards-worthy performance.

Here is an album of photos I took of the huge fireworks spectacle that was put on Saturday as the 4th became the 5th. I haven't gone in and cut down the number, so it's a lot of pictures. I took these from the roof of my apartment building. Take with a Nikon Z50ii w/ the 50-250 mm zoom lens.

I wished I liked the new #Supergirl film more, but in many ways it drifted a bit too far from the comic it's based on. The villain is flat, and the script drags in places, but Milly Alcock is very good. Makeup, Production Design, and VFX are very good. Check out my full #Review.

I didn't have Bleach coning back in Jump on my 2026 checklist. I'm looking forward to this. Tite Kubo is God-tier at page layouts. Best at sound effect usage on page.

I came into The Mandalorian & Grogu completely cold, never watched an episode of the show, and honestly, this movie worked as a fun big-screen Star Wars adventure. Great action setpieces, Ludwig Göransson’s score is amazing, and the puppets are dope. Fire movie. #Review #StarWars #Filmsky #Moviesky

Curry Barker’s #Obsession ended up being a horror film that sat with me long after I saw it. It’s unsettling, entertaining, & surprisingly thoughtful in how it explores loneliness, obsession, and toxic desire through a monkey’s paw-style premise.
'Obsession' Review - Manospheric Incel Horror Parable is Right on Time - | RIOTUS
Curry Barker’s Obsession twists male wish fulfillment into a disturbing horror film powered by anxiety, strong performances, and a haunting emotional core.

Courtney A. Kemp’s #Nemesis is one of the best original Netflix shows this year. A mix of Heat with New Jack City and, of course, Power - Nemesis has a perfect balance of heist movie, cops and robbers, and nighttime soap melodrama. On top of that, it's full of beautiful Black people in Los Angeles.
