Ranking Every James Bond Theme Song
Few things in cinema are as iconic as a James Bond opening sequence. The silhouettes, the guns, the martinis, and, of course, the music. From Shirley Bassey’s booming vocals to Billie Eilish’s haunting whispers, the Bond themes have defined not just the films, but the eras they came from. It's also of note here, I'm not in anyway, shape, or form ranking the movies. This ranking only focuses on the songs without consideration of which movies.

Frankenstein Review - Beautiful, Tragic, Gothic, Perfection.
“Beware; for I am fearless and therefore powerful.” - Mary Shelley Some filmmakers are born for certain projects. David Fincher and Zodiac are peanut butter and jelly. Tim Burton and Beetlejuice is Coca-Cola on ice. Guillermo del Toro and Frankenstein is apple pie and ice cream. (This is making me hungry.) The very themes of Frankenstei n, despite being written in 1816 by Mary Shelley, are themes del Toro has explored many times before. Man & monster, life & death, immo

Black Phone 2 Review - The Grabber Returns!
“People find it difficult to let go of their pain. They prefer familiar suffering because they fear the unknown.” - Thich Nhat Hanh If there was ever a movie I never imagined a sequel for, it would be The Black Phone . The first ties everything up perfectly with anything left unsaid left not so much for interpretation but something more like hoping for the best.
