So Much
The Stop Button Posted by on Sep 21, 2019
I’m taking weekends off from Comics Fondle and Visual Reflux. VR is a little more graphics intensive than anything else I do and CF is going to get about as much as it, though in different ways… awesome new phone camera(s) means being able to do nicer images for posts. One of the reasons I never read more
Star Trek: Discovery (2017) s02e03 – Point of Light
The Stop Button Posted by on Sep 20, 2019
There’s that incredibly disappointing “Star Trek: Discovery” I know. Though not exactly. I had no quality expectations going into the first season so I didn’t have any disappointment, just dread of watching the show. But this episode perfectly encapsulates everything the show has done wrong read more

Alien: Alone (2019, Noah Miller)
The Stop Button Posted by Andrew Wickliffe on Sep 19, 2019
Alien: Alone is one in a series of six “fan-made” but presumably Fox-funded Alien short films for the fortieth anniversary. Based on Alone, it doesn’t seem like Fox had a very high bar when it came to project proposals. Or at least they didn’t care how the shorts turned out, so long as the hook read more

The Shadow of the Tower (1972) s01e01 – Crown in Jeopardy
The Stop Button Posted by on Sep 19, 2019
In 2019, some forty-seven years since its first airing, “The Shadow of the Tower” feels like “Game of Thrones” without blood, booze, boobs, rape, battle scenes, dragons, prominent female characters, butts, zombies, and CGI. Oh, but it does have historical accuracy. There’s something really read more

Becker (1998) s01e07 – City Lights
The Stop Button Posted by on Sep 18, 2019
Once again… I’m wondering how long it takes for “Becker” to start getting really good. I remember it being really good at some points. Like whole seasons. This episode’s all about the streetlight outside Ted Danson’s apartment flickering and him trying to get it fixed. He’s not going to read more

Battle at Big Rock (2019, Colin Trevorrow)
The Stop Button Posted by Andrew Wickliffe on Sep 17, 2019
Battle at Big Rock is a reminder the Jurassic Park Franchise Part 2 isn’t over yet. It’s a suspenseful nine minutes where director Trevorrow puts the preserving lead characters in danger—a family, of course—culminating in an allosaurus about to eat a baby. There’s also the precocious kid Melody read more

Becker (1998) s01e06 – Man Plans, God Laughs
The Stop Button Posted by on Sep 17, 2019
Writer Ian Gurvitz starts off with a bad joke at Alex Désert’s blind guy’s expense, which Désert doesn’t really essay very well either. Funny how the Becker (Ted Danson) rant was the most distinguishing thing in the first three episodes—at least recurring distinguishing thing—and now it’s read more

Becker (1998) s01e05 – My Dinner With Becker
The Stop Button Posted by on Sep 16, 2019
It's Becker (Ted Danson) on a blind date. Danson lets himself get set up after some razzing from Terry Farrell, who's got a wonderful new boyfriend (Brian Cousins). Cousins is a big sweetie, who treats Farrell and everyone else with respect and kindness. He does wear shorts–he' read more

Duh, Ha-Ha (2019)
The Stop Button Posted by on Sep 16, 2019
Duh Ha-Ha is quick and lyrical. The nameless narrator sets up the ground situation in a page; she’s a listless early twenty-something who works in restaurant of some kind, probably not a chain. Her boss gives her a ride home and she thinks about what would happen if she his old bones. Would his gra read more
