I’ve been looking forward to Venom since the announcement and the media frenzy that followed. Along with that, some clever people found a way to know more than others let on, such as when Woody Harrelson was asked about his upcoming role while at ISU. This surprised him, as he hadn’t even told his wife, […]

I very much enjoyed Ready Player One. Steven Spielberg consistently delivers impressive cinematic experiences and this is no exception. I rate Ready Player One 4 out of 5 stars.
