Star Trek Khan Podcast (Episode 4-6)

Star Trek Khan Podcast (Episode 4-6)

Int he first three episodes we saw Khan and his crew's early steps to setting up their colony on Ceti Alpha V, after being stranded there by Captain Kirk during the events of Space Seed. Quite a few of the characters got killed off during these adventures. We still have not seen the destruction of Ceti Alpha VI or the death of Marla McGivers, the Starfleet crew member who stayed behind along side Khan. Three episodes of nine down, three more this week. Just a reminder, there will be spoilers Episode 4 Ceti Eels is the most boring damn name…

Star Trek Khan Podcast (Episode 1-3)

Star Trek has put out an audio drama podcast recently, and since I listen to a lot of Podcasts, it seemed like an easy thing to just add it to my line up. Just a note, for this, I've been jotting down some thoughts as each episode releases, so some earlier speculation may end up being wrong, and it may be right, and potentially a spoiler, except it was just that, speculation. Just a quick bit of background on Khan in the Star Trek universe. Khan appeared in the Original Series episode "Space Seed". The Enterprise crew finds a derelict…
Daredevil: Born Again

Daredevil: Born Again

Daredevil on Netflix was one of the best things to come out of the MCU, though its questionable if its actually part of the MCU. Not to get into the weeds too much, but basically, there used to be "Marvel Movies" and "Marvel TV" as separate divisions. They had different heads, and there was dumb company politics and the claim that the movies didn't want people to feel obligated to watch a TV show to understand the films. Then they merged the divisions, and now every movie has a TV show attached and we get shows with questionable conclusions and…
Ranma 1/2 (2024 Remake)

Ranma 1/2 (2024 Remake)

Netflix has recently done a remake of the classic Rumiko Takahashi series, Ranma 1/2. It feels a bit weird since there is a perfectly good existing Anime series already out there, though its from the early 90s era of anime. I believe this new series though has the selling point of being more accurate to the original 80s Manga. Its been so long since I watched the original, or read the manga, that I can't really vouch for how much more accurate it is. I can say, this new series, is quite good. The animation is really smooth, and a…
Superman Returns (2006)

Superman Returns (2006)

This one is a bit of an honorable mention here. Its a pseudo sequel to Superman I and II. It ignores III and IV and Supergirl. We go back to Lex Luther, and a bit less camp and comedy, though not quite as grim-dark as the later Justice League DC world. We also get a different Superman, since Reeve has passed away at this point with Brandon Routh. Funny enough, I know him mostly for his later role as another DC hero, The Atom. He does feel like he fits the bill of "Boy Scout Superman" pretty well though. Total…
