Picard Is Not Made For New Fans At All Once I knew I was reviewing Picard, I had every intention to go into the show with the mindset of a new Star Trek fan—having seen one or two episodes of TNG only. I wanted to review for fresh eyes. This turned out to be difficult….

Volition Is Much Smarter Than It Initially Seems Volition was the movie I didn’t know I needed. It was refreshing and enjoyable to get a film deftly and almost immaculately telling a story of time travel, premonitions, and cause and effect. Volition doesn’t start off seeming that way, though. At first, it gives off a vaguely…
Watching Proximity Is An Odd Experience Proximity is one of the strangest science fiction movies I have ever seen. It defies all expectations, makes many strange choices, and has a very good grasp of visual storytelling and visual composition—and yet is kind of bad. At first, the movie seems to be clear on what it is:…

Upload Is Some Excellent Science Fiction Upload was on my watch list for months before it arrived. As soon as the trailers came and it was clear that this really was going to be a satirical look at a future where humans can and do upload their brains, I was on board. And by episode one,…
Devs Is An Absolutely Brilliant TV Show Going into Devs, I had expectations. I had heard the pacing was slow. That it was hard to get through. I did not remotely have that issue. Instead, I was engaged, enraptured even. I also didn’t realize this was an Alex Garland show until the ending credits. And, if…
Glitch Techs Does Not Play Slow Games Glitch Techs proves to me that the new trajectory of animated shows is high energy motion and manic dialogue. It was jarring enough in DC Super Hero Girls, but this show takes it up to eleven. During the review-watching of Glitch Techs, I had to constantly rewind to hear…

The Day of The Martians: Worthy Sequel Full disclosure before I review The Day of the Martians: I have not read The War of the Worlds. My biggest familiarity with the property is the Stephen Spielberg movie starring Tom Cruise. And I enjoyed that movie a lot—but The Day of the Martians is a loving…
