WandaVision is one hell of a gamble for Disney and Marvel. Not only is it the first post-2020 look that we have at anything Marvel, but it's the first of many streaming series for Disney+. If this one fails, it's going to be a lot harder for them to draw attention to the rest of the shows. In a
Netflix has a pretty strong pedigree in the true crime genre. They've made quite a few great limited series like Tiger King, or the reboot of Unsolved Mysteries. Night Stalker: The Hunt For A Serial Killer takes the crown. Simply put, it's one of the best true crime documentaries out there. If you
History of Swear Words on Netflix is an interesting concept. You have the promise of Nicolas Cage and telling us about various swear words. In a sort of "seven dirty words, George Carlin" mixed with The Twilight Zone way, Cage leads you in. He gives you the taste and description of the word, and
Shadow In The Cloud is one of those films where you can tell there was a bit of split work on the film. Sometimes that means the film is disjointed. In other cases, like Rogue One, it isn't a huge issue. This time around, we'll get the controversy out of the way right away. Screenwriter Max Landis

2020 was, let's just leave it at, a year. For a period there, it looked like we might not get Pro Wrestling for a portion of it. Thanks to some brave work in the early days of the pandemic by All Elite Wrestling and WWE, we still got that entertainment that we all craved. It took some ingenuity
2020 was a year. That might be selling it short, but we can all look back and either say "holy crap, how did we survive?" or we can be thankful for what 2020 gave us. In particular for Star Wars, it was a very important year. We got a new multimedia push from Lucasfilm, there was a second season of
Normally, I'd say a dartboard with ideas on it, and getting your Holiday special from that dartboard, is a bad idea. With the Creepshow: Holiday Special, that's the exception. For a forty-five minute special, it packs in a lot. It's a John Carpenter siege style-story, it's about Christmas, it
Indulging every absurd idea that pops into his head, the film unfolds with propulsive vibrance and unshackled execution. That approach turns out to be a bit of a gift and a curse for Riley; a gift in the sense that we get something fresh and original, but a curse because its unbridled approach

This is a first for Marvel Studios and their Marvel Television branch for their Special Presentations. We've had others like Werewolf By Night that introduced a new character, but not one for an already established character like The Punisher. The Punisher: One Last Kill comes off the heels of his
