Black Adam Post-Watch

Thank you to everyone who attended the first Watch & Commentary of the Year featuring Black Adam. I enjoyed doing it, and for those who watch, there was a power point at the beginning. It was a lot of fun revisiting the film. My feelings about it remain unchanged, especially since it was always (IMO) a mid-film that needed tighter editing. There are two solid movies in Black Adam, but the people involved seemed more concerned about getting Dwayne "The Rock" Johnson in a leading vehicle than what would be best for the film itself.The lac...

3 Questions for Future Watch Party/Movie Nights

I have been using Crowdcast because it lets us watch movies without getting dinged by copyright. However, I have found that it is hard for people to find, and not everyone is aware of it. So I have a few questions:1)What would be the best way to keep you informed of those events?2) Would you like the day for the Movie Nights changes? It is generally on a Sunday. If so which day do you think works better?3) Is there another platform you would prefer to Crowdcast?

Black Adam Watch & Commentary @8pm EST

Discuss this "flop" in the DCEU. Examine what went wrong and what could have been some easy fixes.

Black Adam—Watch & Commentary

The movie was supposed to shake up the DCEU but then fizzed into nothing. It is now streaming on HBO Max, and therefore it is the perfect time to group watch this film and discuss its failings of it and what could have been changed to make it better.Full disclosure, I didn't hate this movie when I saw it. I think it's mid.I will link to this amazing article because Hanna Flint is a genius and I love her take on the film: https://www.newarab.com/features/black-adam-hollywood-returns-state-cultural-blindness

Coming in 10 minutes <3Bring your questions and vampire repellant.

End of the Year LiveStream AMA + Breaking Dawn Part 1 &2

It is almost 2023, and Jesus Hera Persephone, where has the time gone? Rather than doing Shark Tale & Hitch, I thought it would be fun to do an End of the Year Patreon Only AMA. During which, so you don't have just to sit around watching my face, we will be watching Breaking Dawn Part 1 & 2. Two movies I have gone out of my way never to watch fully. So we will do that in the afternoon. Some snacks, good vibes, and a terrible movie. I figured putting it at 3pm EST would give the West Coast enough time to join at noon, but allows the East Coa...

Why Were There So Many Confederate Vampire?

In the late 2000s and 2010s, the three major vampire series of the time: True Blood, The Vampire Diaries, and Twilight—all featured male vampire characters who were members of the Confederacy. Bill Compton, Damon Salvatore, and Jasper Hale. We are going to try and figure out why? Why those character backstory decisions were made, the legacy of the Confederacy in cinema, and most importantly, what it says that all these choices were made and primarily uncritically dealt with in or outside the universe.Sources:The Confederate Flag and the Meani...

Patreon Goals & Updates in 2023

I have often said I wanted to do things and found myself unable to do so because of time. I am moving into making content full-time, and with my contract and PBS and Netflix Geeked not currently renewed, I want to spend that time working on my many crafts and trying to live up to the expectations I have set for myself. I look forward to doing more, and I'm sorry I'm so bad at figuring out tiers. I want everyone to have fun and make it worth it, so I sometimes fumble. All goals and additional benefits will be added on the 31st. TL;DW: �...

"Spiderman: Into the Spider-verse" Movie Night | Tue, Dec 27 @7PM EST

EDIT: December 27th is a Tuesday, not a Sunday, the title was a mistake and has been edited. Also, the reason the movie night is being held on a Tuesday this month is so it doesn't coincide with the holiday weekend.The winner for the December movie night poll is...Spiderman: Into the Spider-versecontent warningsTeen Miles Morales becomes the Spider-Man of his universe, and must join with five spider-powered individuals from other dimensions to stop a threat for all realities.
