The Flash (2014) s06e08 – The Last Temptation of Barry Allen, Pt. 2

The Stop Button Posted by on Dec 5, 2019

So unlike previous seasons, the CW “Arrowverse” showrunners—at least on “Flash,” “Supergirl,” and to some extent “Batwoman”—are doing a pre-Crisis arc and a post-Crisis arc, which might end up making a lot of sense depending on how Crisis goes… so this episode is the big finale read more

The Flash (2014) s06e06 – License to Elongate

The Stop Button Posted by on Dec 5, 2019

So Ralph (Hartley Sawyer) gets his own episode and it’s, for some reason, a James Bond send-up. He and Grant Gustin are in tuxedos trying to stop Bond villain wannabe (literally, the guy wants to be a Bond villain, it’s part of the narrative) Carlo Rota from selling a doomsday laser to some one read more

The Flash (2014) s06e07 – The Last Temptation of Barry Allen, Pt. 1

The Stop Button Posted by on Dec 5, 2019

“The Flash” seems to be in a race—no pun intended—to see how bad it can get before the Crisis crossover. This episode gives Grant Gustin his first showcase all season and instead of giving him scenes opposite the regular cast, like his wife, dad, friends, sticks him in a battle of the wills. read more

Zombie (1979, Lucio Fulci)

The Stop Button Posted by on Dec 4, 2019

They filmed a lot of Zombie on location—New York City, the Dominican Republic, the ocean floor. For over half the movie, the location filming is the most important thing—if we’re going by what director Fulci showcases the most. Not even the gore gets a bigger showcase until the third act, though read more

”Think about the future”

The Stop Button Posted by on Dec 4, 2019

You may have noticed some changes at the Stop Button in the last few days. A totally different theme, TV posts, no header images, inconsistently getting the new site versus the old. It’s not just you, it’s everyone. Well, somewhere out there is an ISP with updated DNS not doing the inconsistency, read more

The Happytime Murders (2018, Brian Henson)

The Stop Button Posted by Andrew Wickliffe on Dec 2, 2019

The Happytime Murders is exceptionally foul and exceptionally funny. It’s set in a world where animate puppets and humans co-exist, with the human bigotry eradicated because they’ve all decided to hate on the puppets instead. There’s no explanation of how the puppets came to be or when they came read more

Batwoman (2019) s01e08 – A Mad Tea-Party

The Stop Button Posted by on Dec 2, 2019

This episode has Sam Littlefield’s character—just the character, not Littlefield himself, which is great because Littlefield’s awful—but Littlefield’s character is impersonating Dougray Scott, who’s also terrible. Only when Scott’s pretending to be Littlefield pretending to be Scott, Scott’s read more

Superstore (2015) s01e01 – Pilot

The Stop Button Posted by on Dec 1, 2019

I’ve been wanting to watch “Superstore” on a recommendation and, starting it, I realized it’s very much my bag. It takes place in a very confined setting—a big box store, which is also very much my bag as I’ve always been intrigued at the idea of the department store and its descendants. read more

The Guest (2014, Adam Wingard)

The Stop Button Posted by Andrew Wickliffe on Nov 30, 2019

For most of The Guest, the script doesn’t matter. Either the acting or the filmmaking carry the scene. The first act is this fairly standard, fairly obvious—albeit beautifully produced—drama about an all American family in crisis after the death of the oldest son, a soldier, killed in action in read more
