Scott Pilgrim Takes Off “Let’s party!” – Lucas Lee Thirteen years have passed since the quirky “Scott Pilgrim vs the World” appeared in cinemas and (in principle) delighted a large number of viewers, and many still call it a small masterpiece. And then someone got the idea to make an animated version of Scott…
Scott Pilgrim vs the World Knives Chau: I’ve never even kissed a guy before. Scott Pilgrim: Hey… me neither. “Scott Pilgrim vs the World” is truly an unusual case in the film world, worthy of (pro)studying. Financially speaking, it turned out to be a miss. On a budget of 60-85 million dollars (hard to find…
Wednesday “Wednesday’s child is full of woe…” – from the lullaby “Monday’s Child” Although I saw that the series “Wednesday” received good ratings (both from audiences and critics), I wasn’t in any rush to watch it. And when I finally got around to watching it, I had absolutely no expectations… it turned out that…
Rebel (The Legend Series) *(Note: This book connects quite closely to the original Marie Lu trilogy.

The Mandalorian (Season 2) “May the 4th be with you” – mantra of every STAR WARS nerd “The Mandalorian” is one of the rare series that managed to do three things. It managed to make the retarded year 2020 more bearable, showed it’s possible for a second season of a series to be better than…
The Graveyard Book Neil Gaiman is always a welcome guest on this blog. So far we’ve hung out with him through his classic “American Gods” and the incredibly fun “Norse Mythology.” But now we’re going to, for a change, dive into an unusually fairy-tale-like (and slightly twisted) world… whose plot mostly takes place in a…
Birds of Prey Sometimes I wonder what’s really going on with the people who make DC movies, what goes through their heads… Constant creative conflicts, changing actors due to financial/scheduling/personal disagreements, a large number of cut scenes from movies that apparently change the very dimensions of the films (Snyder’s director’s cut version of “Batman vs…
Code Geass: Lelouch of the Rebellion (Originally published: 03/04/2020) The reviewer discusses “Code Geass,” a complex anime series set in an alternate 21st century where the world is divided between three superpowers, following Lelouch vi Britannia, an exiled prince who gains supernatural commanding powers and becomes the masked revolutionary “Zero” to fight against the Britannian…
