‘Spider-Man: Across the Spider-Verse’ Review: More Manic, Web-Slinging Fun

David Palmer2 Comments

I think it’s wildly impressive that we are over 10 “Spider-Man” films deep and have yet to have a (truly) bad one! That’s some “Scream” level of consistency! “Spider-Man: Across the Spider-Verse” is the sequel to the 2018 film “Into the Spider-Verse,” and follows Miles Morales (voiced by Shameik Moore) and Gwen Stacy (Hailee Steinfeld)… Continue reading ‘Spider-Man: Across the Spider-Verse’ Review: More Manic, Web-Slinging Fun

My favorite time of year at the movies is the summer, and while the field has shifted in recent years as far as when summer season starts and ends and when big-budget films get released, the term “blockbuster” is still synonymous with the season, as seen with “Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 3” kicking things… Continue reading 2023 Summer Box Office Predictions

Some people love Oscar season but for me, nothing will ever beat the summer movie season. It’s hard to beat going into an air-conditioned theater in the middle of the summer heat and seeing a blockbuster on the big screen. And with the summer season comes another big aspect: box office draws (and flops). Here… Continue reading 2019 Summer Box Office Predictions

‘Spider-Man: Into the Spider-Verse’ isn’t Perfect, but it’s Colorful and Poignant

David Palmer1 Comment

Unrelated fact: Tobey Maguire is the best Spider-Man we’ve ever had, and the Sam Raimi trilogy is the best superhero series ever put to film. Ok. On with the review. “Spider-Man: Into the Spider-Verse” is an animated telling of the titular character (the ninth in as many years). It features Shameik Moore as Miles Morales,… Continue reading ‘Spider-Man: Into the Spider-Verse’ isn’t Perfect, but it’s Colorful and Poignant
