One More for the Gipper: Cult Television (streaming and otherwise), Videogames and a touch of Decadence

Tags

Count Eric Steinbock, Danny Boyle, Doctor Strange, Elizabeth Olsen, Fred Astaire, It Takes A Thief, Jessica Harper, Journal of Decadence, Life is Strange: True Colors, Mike Tyson Mysteries, Of Kings and Things, Peter Hooten, Pistol, Robert Conrad, Sex Pistols, Susan Saint James, The Inhumans, Third Eye Cinema, third eye cinema podcast, Wandavision

So here’s the final entry, a bit of a catch-all encompassing everything from an excellent sleeper of the gaming industry to a recently released reissue of another Decadent author...and several streaming TV series of note.

So without any further frippery or fussing and flitting about…shall we?

The Decline and Fall of the Marvel (Cinematic) Universe, Exhibit W

Tags

Avengers Endgame, Benedict Cumberbatch, Chris Hemsworth, Disney Marvel, Doctor Strange and the Dimension of Madness, Doctor Who, Hallmark card sentimentality posing as moving profound screenwriting, homoeroticism and obsessive morbidity in comic book movies, Jar Jar Binkslike annoying CG sidekicks, Jared Leto, Marvel movies, Matt Smith, Morbius, Natalie Portman, New Who, sick humor marketed to children, terrible cinema, Third Eye Cinema, third eye cinema podcast, Thor Love and Thunder

And here’s the third of what has turned out to be no less than FOUR collections of film reviews posted over at the Facebook page immediately after viewing…and boy, there are some doozys in there.

Pour yourself a stiff drink, light one up if you’d rather, and prepare yourselves for at least three of the most abominable atrocities Disney’s Marvel takeover has foisted upon an unsuspecting viewing audience to date…

…and realize Morbius is by far the BEST of the three in question.

Shall we, then?

Hey, there!

Yeah, it’s been a few weeks, during which time we’ve done (by the time you read this very missive) no less than FIVE recorded shows (not to mention the research and what have you that precedes same), and begun research on two further ones (closing out Season 11 and kicking off the first few shows of Season 12) over at Weird Scenes.

Kicking off a busy week, here’s a fresh off the grill serving of Roundup Reviews. And a few big budget, glossy power metal/AOR acts aside, it’s filled with the sort of doomy, smoke ’em if you got ’em stuff that helps keep your head straight in crazy times.

So without any further ado…shall we?

And so, with the net finally closing in on an unbelievably stupid would-be mob boss cum dictator and his enablers and justice finally on the horizon, what does his brainless fanboy contingent do when faced with the reality of just who this man always was, and how deluded their literal worship of him is?

I know…let’s keep the horse blinders on. Persecution! 1776! Let’s “get” the FBI, the cops, the government! And this from the supposed “party of law and order”, who just high fived an attempt to screw over military veterans in retaliation over a political loss.

Wait…that’s starting to sound really familiar…(cough.)

It’s so derisively amusing to see the trolls gather from under the bridge, attempting to spin reality to defend their fearless goblin king from his impending and long overdue comeuppance.

In case you managed to miss all the good news lately on several fronts…looks like the sun may finally be getting a chance to shine after five long years of misery and oppression from forces inimical to the continuance of the human race (not to mention the planet itself.)

Damn straight, I’m smiling.
