Justice League: Crisis On Infinite Earths

I watched Justice League: Crisis On Infinite Earths 2 and I must say, I did not like it. This article is not just a review of this movie, but a review of the concept of a multiverse. There will be minor spoilers, but I won’t talk much about the plot because I basically don’t care about it, as I will explain.                I would like to start by talking about the Justice League cartoons in general and their problem with power creep (that would be a cool villain name).

Beast Is Not A Sympathetic Character

I just finished Beauty and The Beast, the animated adaptation from Burbank Animation, Australia. This story is a textbook case of Stockholm Syndrome. The Beast attempts to murder Beauty’s father until the father mentions that he has a daughter. Suddenly, the lecherous Beast decides to spare the father’s life if the father gives his daughter over to Beast. So the daughter has to become a hostage in order to save her father.   As Beauty is kept prisoner, Beast manipulates her by going in

Rant-End Of Year Lists

You know what putrifies my punch? End of the year “best of” lists. They always come out before the year is done. How can you have a Person of the Year in November? What if someone cures cancer on December 31? What about best movies? What if there is a great movie that comes out at the end of December? There’s countless end of year lists of best ofs. People want to relax at the end of the year. When the new year starts, people go back to work. Nobody is in the mood for “best of” lists. But that d

Rant - What Burns My Bacon

Here is something annoying. Hidden buttons on devices. What is the obsession with hiding buttons? Here are some examples: I rarely use Mac computers. One time I was using a Mac and it had a mouse with no visible buttons. I knew it had at least one button. Then my friend told me it had a left and right click. How was I supposed to know? It was one solid piece of plastic. There was no indication that there was a left and right button. I had a Sansa mp3 player. It had a rotating wheel to
