But today is different as I have just completed Dave Chappelle’s latest stand-up special on Netflix and this sudden urge to put something down came over me, which would be my first in weeks. In other words, this is a review of Chappelle’s fifth Netflix special. This is my first post in weeks and my first stand-up review, which I hope to do more in future. I am glad the first I would be doing is…

As Avengers: Endgame, which served as the end of the third MCU phase recently passed Avatar as the biggest movie ever in the box office, Marvel has turned to new projects that would keep the cash spring flowing. These new set of projects should appeal to various societal and racial groups, which should rake in more money for the mouse house in this PC era. Ranging from higher influence for racial minorities in the movies, to strong women, down to the LGBTQ. They all hit the checklist for various groups. With these introduced, what remains is a question of how…

After missing out on last year’s Emmys due to the longer sabbatical and production time for the final season of the ‘greatest show ever’, Game of Thrones returned to its place at the top of the game as this year’s nominations were announced yesterday. Game of Thrones as being the biggest thing on earth, the authenticity of new show, Chernobyl and hit comedy series, Barry, helped HBO rise back to the peak with 137 nominations, ahead of its closest rival, Netflix that landed 117 noms (which betters last year’s record 112 for the online service). Netflix has true-life heart gushing…

Disney, this past week, released more details about their upcoming streaming service known as Disney Plus or Disney+, depending on how lazy you are. I am not going to lie, I am so jealous on Netflix’s behalf. Disney+ would be fully stacked with beloved content from Disney’s past and exciting new projects for the future, that’s also filled with reboots(High School Musical), sequels (Monsters at work), prequels (Loki) and some new stories to get excited for. Disney+ will be launching on November 12 in the US at an attractable price of just 7 dollars a month. These are all just…

The Mickey Mouse fun house is about to get crowded with new guests. It turns out these guests would be hanging around for a long time to come. Earlier this week, Disney closed the deal of the year as it completed its takeover/acquisition of a large part of the 21st century Fox. You know when the big bad, or well not so good guy gets attacked and attacked, instead of getting down on its knees and giving up or dying, instead it double resizes, ready for the next round of battle. The next round of battle being the online digital…

Ding Ding Ding Ding, “let the fight begin!”. As you already know, if you’re a regular reader, I’m a big Netflix fan. I’m a junkie, lover, aficionado, loyalist and most importantly critic! As much as I love the drug, I remain its biggest critic. I think that is something we should all be ready to do for something we love.

From people faking and claiming depression, to being insomniac, it seems the newest coolest thing in town for the cool kids of the 90s this century is hating on the entire Arrowverse. What has Greg Berlanti done to deserve this hatred? Who has Oliver Queen failed to receive this much criticism for the house he built, or did Barry Allen make a few unlikable changes to your life through his numerous time travel? This is just pure jumping on the hatred Wagon without having true or real reasons for the criticism. I know the idea is to break down both…
