Doctor Strange Review: Dormammu I’ve come to bargain

BySebastian Weir July 5, 2024July 5, 2024

As a massive Harry Potter fan I was predisposed to liking Doctor Strange but I got to say I enjoyed it more than I expected. While the villain may be on the weaker side and the plot might be similar to other MCU origin films it still has a lot to offer with some creative fights, a unique visual style, and a great performance by the leading man! Definitely give this one another go if you haven’t in a while and let the magic take you to another dimension.

Thor The Dark World Review: You Must Be Truly Desperate

BySebastian Weir July 1, 2024July 1, 2024

So all in all, Thor The Dark World might be one of the low points in the MCU. It may not be their greatest box office or critical success though it is not their biggest failure either.

BySebastian Weir June 16, 2024June 22, 2024

Overall, I think Thor was a really important movie for Marvel Studios. It was their first test of seeing if people would show up to some of the more out-there concepts from the concepts.

ByNathanyal Eng May 29, 2024May 29, 2024

As a follow up to The Dawn of Yangchen , The Legacy of Yangchen was a much more enjoyable book to read. As an overall thought, if you’ve already read The Dawn of Yangchen, then The Legacy of Yangchen will provide a nice conclusion to the loose ends left behind in the previous novel.

Hell’s Paradise Manga Review: Perfectly Balanced

ByNathanyal Eng May 6, 2024May 30, 2024

Hell’s Paradise was a fun read with an interesting concept, mysterious plot, intriguing powers, and solid characters. If you’ve watched the anime, pick up this manga right from where you left off, and it’ll be worth it. If you haven’t watched the anime, pick this one up right from the beginning.

Ghostbusters 2 Review: Higher and Higher

BySebastian Weir March 22, 2024July 21, 2024

While I do still think the original is the better, Ghostbusters 2 is still one I am happy to throw on. It shows that there is still a lot to explore in this franchise with new threats and ghosts to explore. If you’re looking for the continuation of the franchise this first sequel is an enjoyable step on that path!

Mushoku Tensei: Jobless Reincarnation Review: The Beginning Before the Beginning

ByNathanyal Eng February 23, 2024May 30, 2024

Mushoku Tensei: Jobless Reincarnation was an absolutely crazy journey. With 25 volumes in the light novel, 1 fully animated season and a second half of season 2 to be animated, it is an amazing journey anyone who loves the fantasy genre to indulge. Although there are some darker themes, the overall world building and characters are next level.
