Up Up and Pret-a-Porter: Why are superhero movie costume designs so boring?

February 5, 2017 by Anghus Houvouras

Anghus Houvourus on superhero movie costumes… Be warned: This is going to be some epic level nitpicking right here. By now my laundry list of complaints about the Marvel Cinematic Universe are well known. It’s safe to say that I may be the most vocal critic of the Marvel movies in terms of consistency and […]

Is it wrong to root for The Joker?

October 1, 2019 by Anghus Houvouras

Anghus Houvouras on The Joker… It’s almost impossible to escape the zeitgeist currently surrounding Todd Phillips’ highly-praised, highly-controversial take on The Joker. After near unanimous praise from the Venice Film Festival, the movie has become a target for the polarizing extremes of social media. Questions have been raised about the social responsibility of the time […]

It’s time to #ReleaseTheTrankCut of Fantastic Four

August 4, 2019 by Anghus Houvouras

Anghus Houvouras with a call to #ReleaseTheTrankCut… In 2017 Justice League was released into theaters. ‘Released’ like a synthetic virus engineered to numb your senses and lull you into a state of catatonia. Ever since Joss Whedon took a dull hatchet to Zack Snyder’s original gonzo vision for Justice League, fans have been clamoring to […]

Why Jamie Dornan should be the next Batman

May 2, 2019 by Anghus Houvouras

Anghus Houvouras shares his pick for the next Batman… Ben Affleck is out as Batman, something no one should be surprised by. Warner Bros. is looking at hosing themselves off after Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice and Justice League showered audiences with wet, hot stinky garbage that was about as well received a white […]

Why are Star Wars fans acting like Kelly Marie Tran smothered their inner child?

June 6, 2018 by Anghus Houvouras

Anghus Houvouras on toxic fandom… Obviously she didn’t. No rational mature adult human-being could validate a statement like this. It’s the kind of hyperbolic verbal spasm that has become a staple of fandom ever since cinematic obsessives made declarations like ‘George Lucas raped my childhood’ because they thought the prequels weren’t that good. I’m always […]

Why are people crying at the end of Avengers: Infinity War?

May 10, 2018 by Anghus Houvouras

Anghus Houvouras on the end of Avengers: Infinity War (spoilers in the house)… Avengers: Infinity War is a massive, worldwide, expectation-exceeding box office busting phenomenon that has managed to capitalize on 10 years of world building. All the success is a victory lap for what Kevin Feige and Marvel Studios have accomplished. This is well-earned […]

Does Avengers: Infinity War Ruin Thor: Ragnarok (and The Hulk)?

April 30, 2018 by Anghus Houvouras

Anghus Houvouras on Avengers: Infinity War, Thor: Ragnarok, and The Hulk… I really enjoyed Avengers: Infinity War. Not since the original Avengers have I felt this excited about a Marvel movie as well as the urge to see it multiple times. As someone who had been suffering a case of Marvel movie malaise, this is […]

Why Ed Skrein’s decision to walk away from Hellboy is a game changer

August 29, 2017 by Anghus Houvouras

Anghus Houvouras on Ed Skrein’s decision to walk away from the Hellboy reboot following whitewashing criticism… Damn. That’s what I said out loud when I read Ed Skrein’s statement about why he was walking away from the Hellboy reboot. If you hadn’t already heard, Skrein had been cast as Ben Daimio in the Hellboy reboot […]

‘Who’ Cares? The online furore over the next Doctor Who

July 16, 2017 by Anghus Houvouras

Anghus Houvouras on the online furore over the next Doctor Who… Doctor Who is a legendary science fiction institution. One with a rich history and mythology that has created fans across multiple generations. The casting of ‘The Next Doctor’ has always been a subject of interest, but in recent years the internet has turned it […]
