Happy one year anniversary to the life-changing novel, “Einstein in the Attic.” I can’t believe it’s been one straight year of editing, publishing, marketing, social media marketing, promoting, and hustling since the birth of our award-winning book. How crazy is that? It’s mind-blowing to think that a full year of hard challenges, lessons,
After 2016’s Suicide Squad, audiences had mixed reactions to the Harley Quinn: Birds of Prey trailer, (or should I say Harley Quinn: Birds of Prey now that the title’s changed). Some people loved it. Some people hated it. As for me, I decided to spring up two pigtails, spray them pink and blue, dot a
Stephen King, (author of the novel), described the idea for a sequel to his famous book, The Shining on November 19, 2009. He stated that he wrote Doctor Sleep because he wanted to explore how Danny Torrance’s trauma, father’s alcoholism, and psychic abilities impacted him later in his adulthood. Directed by
The lights dimmed, I popped some buttered popcorn into my mouth, and the screen faded to reveal a man named “Arthur Fleck,” (Joaquin Phoenix), staring at his hollow, white matte-painted face in a shabby vanity mirror. A tear rolls from one of his eyes. He sticks his fingers into the sides of his mouth and struggles
Two things to know when I decided to watch Alita: Battle Angel in Imax 3D. One: I literally knew nothing about the plot.

A combination of endless Facebook review posts and Netflix’s percent match caused me to succumb to watching what the majority of social media has been on the rage about this past month: You. No not you, reader, but “You,” as in the 10-episode season released first on Lifetime back in September and on
I’ll admit, a complicated combination of study-time, finals, and essentially a bit of vacation time and laziness have caused me to fall of the grid of film reviews for quite some time. But guess what—I’m back. Shady’s back. Back again, with a friend—ok, I’ll stop. Two things lead me to choosing this film: Elijah Wood
Yellow Fever officially marks the first movie I’ve seen at my first ever film festival I’ve attended (Sonoma Film International Film Festival). Yeah, yeah, yeah, I know what you’re gonna say. ‘Well how can you be a film critic then if you’ve never been to a film festival?’ *Uses Italian finger gesture* One: I can—although
As promised and mentioned in last week’s review, this week’s film of focus is Martin Scorsese’s Silence. Initially, I hesitated upon noticing this flick was a length film. But then I remembered that I had promised this flick for this week, (D’oh!), and realized I had no choice. Aha. Anyways, I had no expectations or
For this week’s review, two popular requests/recommendations that came my way were Arrival (2016) and Silence (2016).
