LEGO Star Wars: Rebuild The Galaxy Is Silly Fun
Rebuild The Galaxy was an absolute treat. A series that has no business being as good, as dramatic, and as funny as it is. Though it was already clear from several Lego movies that the “medium” of those bricks could result in good storytelling, this once again blew me away.
The Magnus Protocol Reviews: “Dead End Job”
“Dead End Job” is kind of a bad episode. Surprisingly, it’s subpar. I had been all geared up for a big reveal, an answer for what is happening. A nice little exposition moment. And while we got one—and I didn’t guess it beforehand—it wasn’t even that big of a revelation. Also, it’s not a revelation I particularly like.

The Magnus Protocol Reviews: “Keyed In”
“Keyed In” is a weird episode. Not a lot of it is explained or even seems to follow much of a plot. I more mean this for the anthology story, but even the other stuff is kind of odd for a Magnus Protocol episode.
Star Wars: Tales of the Empire: Incomplete Show
Tales of the Empire Tells Us Parts Of A Whole Story After having such a good time reviewing Tales of the Jedi, I figured that Tales of the Empire would be similar. That it would also contain a bunch of interesting looks at the history of various familiar characters. But I wouldn’t call these characters…
Friday Fiction: Liquid Air Delivery (Part 3 of 4)
Welcome back, dear reader.
As you may recall, our protagonist has a problem. Two deadly machines called “Task-Shots” stand between him and preventing an explosion.
It Came From The Archives: “Artificial Condition: The Same Level Of Good”
Artificial Condition continues my internal war with how I feel about The Murderbot Diaries. Despite it being more technobabble than almost anything else, the story remains intriguing and engaging off the back of the main conceit: what if a rogue AI designed to kill wanted to be left alone to watch television?
The Magnus Protocol Reviews: “Interruptions”
“Interruptions” doesn’t interrupt in the way I had expected. Given that the episode, for a time, kept flitting to different moments around the office, I had assumed that the entire runtime would take place there. No statement. No anthology elements. A true interruption from the status quo.
Friday Fiction: Liquid Air Delivery (Part 2 of 4)
In our last installment of this tense, sci-fi adventure, our protagonist discovered that this wasn’t going to be a normal delivery. There’s more going on. But he doesn’t back down easily.
The Magnus Protocol Reviews: “Driven”
“Driven” is such an interesting episode because of how much it’s a different subgenre than is typical of The Magnus Protocol. Yes, the events are horrific in concept. Yes, there are some obvious parallels to the very first episode of Archives. Yes, it has cosmic elements. But the nature of the narrative is more like reading a paranormal investigation story.
The Magnus Protocol Reviews: “Catching Up”
“Catching Up” is such an improvement from the last two episodes. It’s weird and horrific and takes its time to build to the horror. And the horror story both informs the overall story and works on its own. It’s an excellent entry.
