The other day I took an entire late afternoon and evening to myself to indulge in some movies just out on streaming. It was very enjoyable because they were completely different. Enola Holmes 2 To be honest, I thought this sequel on Netflix was a lot better than the first Enola Holmes movie. Not sure if this one was based on one of the books but I got the feeling they took a lot of liberties because it felt completely different from the first. For one thing, Sherlock was in this one a lot more and it balanced out the story they were telling. WhateverRead More →

I do. I think of it as a to-be-read list for the digital age. But more on that in a moment. I’m not sure I’ve read a book or watched a TV series this week. I simply haven’t been in the right mood. At all. So I’ve spent most of my off time catching up on my YouTube watchlist. Which had gotten seriously out of control, let me tell ya. Other than that, I spent some time doing some mental housecleaning. What is my want-to-finish list? First of all, let me be clear that I’m not talking about stuff I’m working on for the website.Read More →

Because what else would it be inspired by? Don’t believe me? So, I was browsing around on Pinterest and ran across this: I’ve heard about this one being one of the earliest genre romances of the 20th century. Which meant it was old enough it probably had a plain hardback cover originally but I was curious as to what the original paperback one might have been. Okay, that’s more like it but I sill don’t know if that’s the first. Another thing I’ve heard about this book is that it was the inspiration, or at least one of them, for the early silent movie sheikRead More →

Okay, just for the record this post will probably contain some slight spoilers but, seriously, anyone who doesn’t have some idea of the major beats of this story has been living in a cave for the last three decades.  Anyway, my children got me these two videos for Mother’s Day. Boy, do they know their mother.  My son and I ended up watching it together on Mother’s Day and the only thing that really threw us was starting out with basically the New 52 Superman in The Death of Superman… who was hooked on and apparently dating Lois Lane. Not that we had any quibbleRead More →

I recently ran across a new to me website that I’ve fallen in love with – The Silver Petticoat Review: Romance in Entertainment. What I love about it is that it feeds my “and I want some romance in what I watch” craving with regards to video fare. To be perfectly honest I usually don’t seek out stuff on TV and in the movies for romance. If it’s called a romance, half the time I’ll be leery of it in the first place. But I like to know what’s out there at the same time.Read More →
