My Review:
Now that you’ve watched Furiosa, re-watched Fury Road, and all the other Mad Max movies. You should immediately go and play the2015 Mad Max video game.
You know what we’re not going to remember 5 years from now? Furiosa not making as much money as nerds hoped. You know what we’re going to remember? That it kicks all kinds of ass.
The early reviews for Indiana Jones are full of it. Is it the best movie in the franchise? No. Is it a soulless pile of garbage? Also no. The movie felt like an Indiana Jones movie and it's about an aging hero. The action scenes are fantastic, it's an adventure.
#IndianaJones
Indiana Jones and the Dial of Destiny gives us something that the "nostalgia" era hasn't, a hero that we know and love isn't just the copy/paste of an older self. Indy has wounds, he's seen the passage of time pass him by, it's a poignant story of a man beyond his time.
Gareth Edwards doesn't miss with The Creator. The movie takes place alongside Terminator 2, Alien, and Star Wars as absolute smashing examples of how sci-fi can parallel our world. It's easily among the best films of the year.

I was sitting in Longlegs trying to think of more terrifying movie characters than Nicolas Cage’s performance, and there aren’t very many. The movie carries a tension and unease all the way through that never lets up. This is a horror classic in the making.
#Longlegs
I was not expecting much out of Blue Beetle. I was soundly proven wrong by this movie, it’s a joyous, heartfelt, ride, that feels like DC’s version of Spider-Man: Homecoming. It celebrates Latino culture in such a natural way. One of DC’s best ever.
#DC
#BlueBeetle
It's a shame that we don't get YA novels for horror movies anymore. The '90s had books based on Friday the 13th, Halloween, A Nightmare On Elm Street, in addition to Goosebumps and all those other novels. Sad.
Of course Grace Randolph spoiled Black Adam in her social reaction. Because why not. Will she lose access? Of course not. Throw her into the pit of misery with Campea.
#BlackAdam
Xochitl Gomez says that she would watch Elizabeth Olsen before scenes. Cumberbatch interjects that everyone was mesmerized by her performance in the scene. Gomez talks about the sheer power of Lizzie's performance in Multiverse of Madness.
#DoctorStrange
John Wick: Chapter 4 is one of the finest action movies ever. My jaw hit the floor at least six times. One section involving a Dragon's Breath shotgun is just action-movie goodness at its best. Donnie Yen steals the show. Easily the best in the series
#JohnWick4
#JohnWickChapter4
Ray Liotta’s performance in Goodfellas might be one of the single best in the history of movies. He also commanded the screen at every moment in Field of Dreams. Such a loss. RIP.
The Marvels is a triumph. The runtime is just right, the action hits hard, Iman Vellani is the heart and soul of the film. It might not explain everything super well, but it’s a fantastic popcorn movie. Marvel is on the right track.
#TheMarvels
Spider-Man: Across the Spider-Verse is one of the most visually stunning movies ever, regardless of format, style, live-action, or animation. It outdoes the first film and gives us one of the finest examples of film in recent memory. It’s about as perfect as it gets.
#SpiderMan
I don't know much, but Marvel is 100% filming something on Hollywood Blvd at the Chinese Theater. Posters with Kingo from Eternals are up, and Christmas decorations are everywhere... Looks like it could be the Guardians of the Galaxy: Holiday Special
#Marvel
Who would win? Wanda or Doctor Strange? Elizabeth says we all know who would win, punch for punch. Benedict interjects with "she's pretty powerful".
#DoctorStrange
The Creator is one of the best sci-fi movies I've ever seen. It blends emotion, action, and some of the best VFX in the industry, with two performances from John David Washington and Madeleine Yuna Voyles that are stunning. Don't miss this film.
#TheCreator
#TheCreatorMovie
Loki has been a highlight of the MCU for a long time. That continues with Loki Season Two. The first four episodes are a return to form for the MCU, giving us cosmic goodness mixed with plenty of despair. It's a dark season with a hell of a cliffhanger in Ep. 4.
#Loki
Longlegs is led by Maika Monroe, who channels her inner Clarice and Scully, but adding a wrinkle to the FBI agent archetype. She’s magnificent alongside Nicolas Cage’s terror. It builds and builds, and takes turns you don’t expect with a style and substance that’s unmatched.
Ant-Man and the Wasp: Quantumania is Marvel’s quantum space opera. It’s thrilling, heartfelt, and an excellent addition to their story. Think Guardians of the Galaxy, but in the quantum realm.
#AntManAndTheWaspQuantumania
Dune: Part Two is a spectacle among all spectacles. A blockbuster to end all blockbusters. This is a mythical tome of a film that succeeds in every way. It’s among the most impressive films I’ve ever seen.
#Dune
#DunePartTwo
There are two scenes in Secret Invasion's first two episodes that are absolute masterclasses from Samuel L. Jackson and Ben Mendelsohn and Don Cheadle. The performances on display are stunning. Some of the best work in the MCU.
#SecretInvasion
#MCU
Secret Invasion is something different from Marvel. For long, we've had the same multiverse stuff, and this is a breath of fresh air for people who want something more out of their Marvel TV. Sam Jackson and Ben Mendelsohn are amazing once again. Be paranoid.
#SecretInvasion
#MCU
I absolutely loved Jeff Loveness’s script for Ant-Man and the Wasp: Quantumania. It’s one of the best that Marvel’s had. This movie feels big and sets up perfectly for the future.
#AntManAndTheWaspQuantumania
This scene in Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 3 is breathtaking. The song choice for it is awesome. The entire extended action scene it top tier MCU.
#GuardiansOfTheGalaxy
#GotGVol3
In a year of excellent action films, Mission Impossible: Dead Reckoning stands out for its dedication to actual physical effects, and Tom Cruise being the biggest movie star ever. It’s absolutely exquisite.
#MissionImpossible
#MissionImpossibleDeadReckoning
For people wanting that dangerous, violent, dark side of Marvel, you get it and then some with
#SecretInvasion
. The show is like The Winter Soldier, but with the paranoia cranked to 11. They bring whatever Nick Fury is feeling right into the audience, except there's no backup.
The performances in Mission Impossible: Dead Reckoning vary from good (the villain) to absolutely exquisite. Tom Cruise is fantastic as always, but Hayley Atwell really steals the show. She's a huge part of the film, and Ethan Hunt's arc centers around her.
#MissionImpossible
Disney and Marvel have a real hit on their hands with
@hawkeyeofficial
. Hailee Steinfeld and Jeremy Renner have unbelievable chemistry together. This is easily the most light-hearted and funny of the Disney+ Marvel shows.
#Hawkeye

#DisneyPlusDay
MaXXXine isn’t a horror movie. It’s a tribute to the sleazy, violent, shot on video films of the ‘80s. It’s got plenty of gore, violence, and mystery though. Mia Goth gives her best performance of the trilogy. Easily my favorite of the three Ti West films.
#MaXXXine
Like Guardians of the Galaxy before it, Ant-Man and the Wasp: Quantumania takes the weird side of Marvel, cranks it up, and makes it accessible for anyone to enjoy. Kang is terrifying, Scott is heroic. It’s awesome.
#AntManAndTheWaspQuantumania
Echo is a small-scale story that Marvel TV sorely needed. Outside of the first episode, this is all about Maya and her family. It's full of beautiful representation of the Choctaw Nation, which is the most important part of this story. A wonderful addition to the MCU.
#Echo
The Super Mario Bros Movie did exactly what you’d want a Mario movie to do. It has all the familiar landscapes, characters, some awesome Nintendo Easter eggs, most importantly, it’s adorable and entertaining. Highly recommend.
#SuperMarioBrosMovie

#MarioBrosMovie
The Monsterverse does not need fixing. Godzilla X Kong: The New Empire delivers on big action and monster fights. It’s not without problems, but this is a hell of a fun time at the movies.
#GodzillaXKong
Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 3 is for the freaks, for the weirdos. It’s also heart wrenching. In the end, it’s a triumph of science fiction. James Gunn does not miss.
#GuardiansOfTheGalaxyVol3
#GotGVol3
For the crowd out there waiting to rip apart Marvel CG, keep waiting because it’s above and beyond the best in Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 3.
#GuardiansOfTheGalaxy
#GotGVol3
Oh no! Variety said that Indiana Jones and the Dial of Destiny only got a 5 minute ovation at Cannes! Who gives a fuck, it’s an Indiana Jones movie, I’ll be there day one.
#IndianaJones
Alien: Romulus is exactly how I imagined it would be. Fede Alvarez injects his style into the series, with plenty of “will they do this? Oh they’re doing this!” moments. This is one of the most crowd-pleasing movies of the year. Horrifying, but you can’t turn away.
#AlienRomulus
Benedict Cumberbatch says that Doctor Strange is conflicted as a hero in the film. He’s omnipotent, but we don’t understand the cost of that gift.
#DoctorStrange
I'm still going to report on Warner Bros Discovery stuff because I have to for my job, but if you think I'm not going to call their decisions absolutely stupid in every article I write, you've got another thing coming.
Deadpool & Wolverine should have caved under the pressure of its plot (and outside Marvel circumstances), instead, it brings gut-busting laughs, a stunning action set piece in the third act, and a new hope for Marvel Studios.
#DeadpoolAndWolverine
Oh wow, Mickey 17 looks exquisite. Very much my shit, Robert Pattinson gets to go bizarre, weird, just the way we like it. It releases in theaters on January 25th, 2025.
Transformers: Rise of the Beasts is a satisfying blockbuster. The human element of the movies is never what you’re there for, but with this one it doesn’t get in the way of what we all really want. It’s easily the second best movie in the series.
#Transformers
#RiseOfTheBeasts
Benedict Cumberbatch says that it's great that he gets fans of the MCU, Sherlock fans, and Power of the Dog fans coming up to him. He occupies a hugely broad spectrum of culture. It's amazing that there's room in our culture for the full spectrum of cinema.
#DoctorStrange
Loki season two cements the series as the best of the Disney+ Marvel shows. It's about as self-contained as they get. For those that have checked out, check back in for this show. It's dark, dreary, and has that impending sense of doom that only Kang can bring
#LokiSeason2
#Loki
Furiosa. I can’t believe that people doubted George Miller once again. It was a spectacle, a vengeance filled tale with explosive set pieces. Anything involving a tanker truck will take your breath away. An exquisite time at the movies.
#Furiosa
@MadMaxMovie
Loki season 2 is a major return to form for Marvel Shows. After MCU misfires, it gives us a transcendent season that'll satisfy fans of all kinds. The third episode is must-watch TV. Ke Huy Quan is magnificent, alongside more amazing work as Loki from Tom Hiddleston.
#Loki
Hearing the X-Men theme bump with a theater full of fans screaming gave me chills. X-Men '97 picks up right where they left off in 1997 but with plenty of beautiful animation, particularly during the action scenes. For fans of the original, this is a dream come true.
#XMen97
The Flash is all about Barry Allen, but it would be nothing without amazing performances from Sasha Calle as Supergirl and Michael Keaton as Batman. It’s not just Flashpoint being adapted, Muschietti did a smashing job here.
#TheFlash
I hate to break this news, but The Wonder Twins movie has been canceled. The crew were told this week that the movie wasn't moving forward. Probably a casualty of the Warner Bros-Discovery merger.
From the reaction of the crowd, the two biggest smashes for Lionsgate are going to be Ballerina and Michael. Both films received thunderous reactions. Bet big on both of these films.
#Lionsgate
#CinemaCon
I will say that The Flash is definitely the best DC movie that we've had in this "modern era". I'm very glad that it lived up to the hype and expectations of four plus years of development and shooting. For a time travel movie, it's surprisingly not confusing.
#TheFlash
If you weren’t hyped already, from the footage that I’ve seen for Doctor Strange in the Multiverse of Madness, it’s gonna be a HELL of a ride.
#DoctorStrange
No Brendan we have f*cking eyes and don’t have hate boners. If you think we’re wrong ask Christopher Nolan. Tell HIM he’s wrong Brendan. Also your name is spelled weird.
Loki season two is really what we all want and expect out of an MCU series. Filled with cosmic, timey-wimey action, Loki continues its track record as the best MCU series with this second season. Incredibly inventive and creative. Fear not, MCU fans.
#Loki
#LokiSeason2
#MCU
John Wick: Chapter 4 might be a long film, but each hour feels like a movie in itself. There's an excellent homage to The Warriors, and the plot of varying assassins trying to kill John carries the whole film. Keanu Reeves and Co. put on a true action spectacle.
#JohnWickChapter4
Deadpool & Wolverine is bombastic. It’s a comic-book fan’s wet dream. Shawn Levy was the perfect director to string this surprisingly emotional story together. If you had any doubts about Marvel, get rid of them.
#DeadpoolAndWolverine
Benedict Cumberbatch says that Doctor Strange is definitely a character that has defined his career. It gives him opportunities to spotlight smaller productions he works on. He's proud to be OUR Doctor Strange.
#DoctorStrange
#TheSuicideSquad
is the most fun film of the year...so far. It's one filled with heart, laughs, action, insane costumes, and an amazing group of performances.
@JamesGunn
gave us the gift that we needed right now.
#DC
#HBOMax
The Fall Guy was absolutely bombastic magic of cinema. It’s a movie about making movies, but really shining a light on the stuntmen of our industry. Gosling and Blunt have immaculate chemistry. I loved this movie.
#TheFallGuy
Kenneth Branagh is masterful as Poirot in
#AHauntingInVenice
. It feels like a smaller film than the previous ones, but that aids the thrilling Halloween mystery on display. It's briskly paced, doesn't overstay its welcome, and gives us the most human Poirot has ever been.
I enjoyed Rebel Moon - Part Two: The Scargiver move than the first. It felt more cohesive and less like episodes stitched together. Snyder uses less slo-mo this time around, and there’s an absolutely stunning set piece in the third act. Djimon Hounsou is the MVP.
#RebelMoonPart2
Well, The Flash was incredible. It’s not the movie changing masterpiece that WB seems to want people to think, but it’s a damn fun movie. Lots of emotion, and yes, Michael Keaton is still the best Batman.
#TheFlash
No, motherfucker, it was people's outrageously overblown expectations that were disappointing. Go watch the movies again, not expecting shitheads on Twitter to feed you lies about Deadpool and Tom Cruise being in Multiverse of Madness.
Hi
@JamesGunn
! Are all the stupid leaks of cameos and surprises going to stop during your leadership at DC? At this point, it's getting insane with every movie just outright giving away fun moments.
