Amazon’s Alexa MegaPrime A.I. changes streaming schedule to 100% Terminator movies & Sarah Connor Chronicles repeats.
There’s been an odd and possibly unexpected interruption to the normal TV and movie scheduling on Amazon Prime’s streaming service, today. It happened when control of the scheduling was passed to the new Alexa MegaPrime A.I. unit which Amazon Labs have been running in testing. The artificial intelligence was meant to adjust each user’s view […]

It sort of feels sacrilegious in browbeating what appears to be an innocuous children’s animated film about a young girl’s wild imagination to offset some personalised pain as she pals around with fuzzy animals in a surreal amusement park. This is indeed the foundation for the flimsy kiddie fantasy ‘Wonder Park’ that trivialises the instilled […]
Bill and Ted III: Face the Music (announcement trailer).
Dude, you are never too old to go time travelling and save the universe through the power of music. Yes, the movie Bill and Ted III: Face the Music has been green-lit by the most excellent Orion Pictures. Will it be any good, though? Frack knows. Maybe it’ll be a meditation on how the passage […]
Higgs & Soap: Galaxy Delivery: Vol. 1 by Tony Cooper (book review).
Writing humour is very difficult as the audience for it is very variable. Not everyone appreciates the same kind of humour so tailoring it to a particular readership is an almost impossible task. As a result, it is best written for an audience of one, the author. With luck, there will also be others who […]

Well, ‘The Lego Movie’ film franchise can at least say that it had its playful run throughout the years since the original blueprint became a sensation back in 2014. This is not bad for a popular toy-turned-desired movie series that incorporated its winning charm, imagination, and wit to adoring audiences. ‘The Lego Movie’ pretty much raised the bar as […]
The Predator versus Santa.
The Predators come to the North Pole and meet their match in Santa, his elves and reindeer – oh yes, the Slay Bells start ringing big time in this official silly animated short to advertise the fact that the last Predator movie is coming out on DVD and might make a good Xmas present for […]

Elvira: Mistress Of The Dark (1988) (Blu-ray film review).
I haven’t seen ‘Elvira: Mistress Of The Dark’ for some time. Now with its blu-ray release, I’ll be watching it four times, as three of them contain audio commentaries. Unlike the Americans, we British only really came across Elvira originally in this film and the Marvel magazine, so we didn’t know much about her other […]
