Review - SECRET INVASION - Episodes 1+2 (2023) moviebob 2023-06-22 | MILD SPOILER WARNINGReview of the first two episodes from Marvel's anticipated new Disney-Plus scifi series "SECRET INVASION;" a paranoid-scifi thriller loosely inspired by the comic of the same title featuring Samuel L. Jackson's Nick Fury investigating the possibility that a scheme to destabilize the world is being fomented by shape-shifting alien invaders within the Marvel Universe.#SecretInvasion #DisneyPlus #Marvel
Review - THE FLASH (2023) moviebob 2023-06-15 | ALSO - "MARTHABOX: The Pointless Life & Meaningless Death of The DCEU"youtube.com/watch?v=QQeoXYCsLPY&list=PL1WoYVvJ35Xr3iuCADRH6X1CyqihXPOiJAfter a decade-plus of development hell, dozens of directors, writers, scripts, retoolings, a global Pandemic and a lead-actor's INTERNATIONAL CRIME SPREE; the most interesting thing that can maybe be said about "THE FLASH" is that - after all that - it somehow manages to wriggle out from under its hefty but compelling extra baggage to stand up on its own as… actually just a completely average, unremarkable superhero movie.#TheFlash #TheFlashMovie #Flash #DCEU
9 (2009) - Retro Review moviebob 2023-06-12 | Retro review of "9," an animated movie you don't remember and that the content-sorting algorithm will bury because of the way they insisted on titling it. But if you find this video anyway there's some new commentary about that, so... welcome, I guess?

Review - TRANSFORMERS: RISE OF THE BEASTS (2023) moviebob 2023-06-10 | And now, an exhausted but enthusiastic critic offers his take on the latest "TRANSFORMERS" feature; which in some respects aims to do for toy robots what "SPIDERVERSE" did for Marvel superheroes but mostly delivers on a retro-cool blitz of 90s nostalgia and deliberately preposterous sci-fi spectacle that (also mostly) get's the job done.#Transformers #RiseOfTheBeasts #transformersriseofthebeasts #hasbro

GAMER (2009) - Retro Review moviebob 2023-06-05 | Original remastered/retro review from 2009 of "GAMER;" largely forgotten dystopian scifi featuring Gerard Butler with the goofy premise of a future where video games replace digital avatars with remote-controlled convicted felons.#gamer
Review - SPIDER-MAN: ACROSS THE SPIDERVERSE (2023) moviebob 2023-06-02 | Also Check Out: "MARTHABOX"youtube.com/watch?v=QQeoXYCsLPYMiles Morales - aka Spider-Man - once again encounters a multiversal threat that brings him into contact with an even wider array of fellow Spider-Person incarnations from across infinite realities... but this time there's a bigger mystery at hand and not everyone may be on his side as the sequel to the game-changing "INTO THE SPIDERVERSE" blasts its whole concept wide open for a much bigger, much more challenging story that sets up even more new adventures to come. Thrilling stuff that wows the senses while delivering a real story that hits different and nearly-equals its modern classic predecessor.#acrossthespiderverse #spidermanmilesmorales #spiderverse #spiderman #marvel

Review - GUARDIANS OF THE GALAXY VOL 3 (2023) moviebob 2023-05-03 | This is the one you’ve been waiting for. The best of the what's now clearly Marvel's best franchise/trilogy and very possibly the new top-tier movie of the MCU ...and featuring the most despicably evil movie villain to haunt the screen in ages.

Review - SHAZAM: FURY OF THE GODS (2023) moviebob 2023-03-19 | The DCEU's most underappreciated actual-good franchise get's a belated actual-good sequel that doesn't deserve to be suffer for the sins of its studio, its genre or the delays of the real world (but probably will anyway) as it still delivers a solidly entertaining family adventure that does a lot with it's unique twist on the genre.#shazam #shazam2 #shazamfuryofthegods
WE LIVED IN A SOCIETY - The Bigger Picture moviebob 2023-03-14 | "Pointless Memories of A Stupid Moment When We All Cared WAY Too Much About 'JOKER'"(RE-UPLOAD! Please like, share, comment and re-post 👍)As part of a longer term project to compile a "retrospective documentary" of my decade in covering the failure of the DC Extended Universe movies, the financial collapse of Warner Bros and the entire cultural history surrounding the same; it became clear that there was A LOT of "JOKER" coverage in there in particular during the 2019-2020 period between the actual review and when "THE BIG PICTURE" was running twice weekly - so much so that it could sustain a compilation all on it's own and be interesting in its own right. So here, together, a (mostly) full compilation tracking the announcement, release, awards season buildup, media hype and fallout from a very VERY stupid moment in time 🤦♂️#Joker #JokerMovie #dceu
Review - WILLOW (2022 Series) moviebob 2023-03-06 | Warwick Davis revives his iconic role as an unlikely sorcerer in what may be the unlikeliest nostalgia-revival in the post-Disney-acquisition Lucasfilm canon; playing wizened mentor to a thoroughly Gen-Z questing party on a mission in a fantasy realm that swings cheerfully between earnest youthful freshness with unapologetic old-fashioned High Fantasy template-respect to unexpectedly charming results. #willow #Disney #disneyplus

Not just to get better at it, but to understand how sometimes "bad analysis" is BAD on purpose - and what shows up later as sloppy ill-informed critique starts out as deliberate and insidious dumbing down ...and no, it still doesn't mean you have to "like" (or dislike!) the talking bracelet game 🤷♂️#Forspoken #playstation #Marvel

With lots of surprises, unique pulls, weird stuff people weren't expecting and also maybe nifty clues to what may or may not be coming? This is my initial reaction, shot pretty soon after the first reveal and edited-together between some other projects and trying to get Warner-Discovery from constantly taking down the "REALLY THAT BAD" video (again!)
