A mild mannered digital strategist working for an environmental nonprofit in Austin, TX roaming the interwebs fighting his nemeses by day, and by night consuming all manner of media. You can find him either on his couch or at the nearest Alamo Drafthouse catching the latest. Don't follow him on Twitter @CitizenAndy.
If you've been waiting for any clues about the return of Netflix's Lupin and what the second half of the season will contain following its stunning cliffhanger, the streaming service dropped a nice present in our laps this morning promising a return of Omar Sy as Assane Diop. The trailer also contains spoilers from the […]
The Alamo Drafthouse chain of theaters, known for their zero-tolerance of theater talking, their chips and queso, fried pickles, and cocktails paired with movies, and especially known for their avant-garde programming, are declaring Chapter 11 bankruptcy and will be purchased by Altamont Capital and Fortress Investment. The Texas-based chain has theaters in 40 locations from […]
Come on, The Flash. You're better than this. After almost a yearlong break (understandable), it's great to see Barry Allen (Grant Gustin) and Team Flash return. Unfortunately, it feels like they just delivered a weak return instead of coming back with a bang. There's only so much we can blame on COVID and production delays […]
This week's episode of The CW's Batwoman feels a bit like a placeholder. While not quite a "bottle episode," many of the main characters sit in chairs on the same sets for long periods of time moving some exposition forward. While punctuated with a few moments of action, it's not quite as engaging as we've […]
Michael Rosenbaum, the Lex Luthor of Smallville, and Jon Cryer, Lex Luthor of The CW's Arrowverse, have a relationship worthy of the character they both played. It's a bromance for the ages as they lightly one-up each other over who is the fairest Lex of them all. Imagine actual Lex Luthor reaching out to Infinite […]
This week's Batwoman gives us a preview of where exactly the season may be going, starts teasing some character dynamics and backstories, but also really leans into what it means for Ryan Wilder (Javicia Leslie) to really take on the persona of Batwoman and make it her own. And while the mains storyline follows classic […]
More episodes of Netflix's Lupin are on their way! The Omar Sy led gentleman thief drama is already Netflix's biggest French-language series ever and one of the first must-watch shows of 2021. But the fifth episode ends on a cliffhanger, leaving fans desperate to find out what happens next. Netflix has answered, tweeting today a […]
[rwp-review-recap id="0"] After introducing Ryan Wilder (Javicia Leslie) in episode 1, Team Batwoman has to make a major choice. Do we keep up with this happy accident, this twist of fate that landed the batsuit in Ryan's lap? Or do they all just start going on with their lives hoping that somehow Kate Kane will […]
This review of Batwoman Season 2 Episode 1 contains SPOILERS for the episode. Batwoman is back, with Ryan Wilder (Javicia Leslie) taking up the cowl and becoming a very different kind of Batwoman. This episode had a near-impossible task: reset the series after its abrupt Season 1 ending and cement Ryan Wilder as the new Batwoman. It […]
Netflix's Lupin excellently reboots and adapts the Arsène Lupin stories in the early 1900s while updating them for the 21st century. Starring Omar Sy (Jurassic World, X-Men: Days of Future Past) and with a pilot episode directed by Louis Leterrier (who directed the MCU Incredible Hulk film) it's the first eminently bingeable shows of 2021. Also […]
With 2020 in the books and all the retrospectives done, it's time to face some cold, hard facts: broadcast network TV as we know it is a wasteland. Cable is better, but it shouldn't be surprising that Bleeding Cool's Top 10 of 2020 was dominated by shows premiering on streaming platforms Amazon Prime, Netflix, and, […]
I have a new television obsession, and it is Yellowstone. This show which had been hiding (from me at least) in plain sight on the Paramount Network (where? Oh, that channel that used to be Spike TV?) tells the story of the Dutton family and their Yellowstone ranch. Spread over an acreage larger than Rhode […]
Brooklyn 99 and holidays go together like turkey, mashed potatoes, and gravy. Unless, of course, you're like Jake Peralta (Andy Samberg) and hate the holiday, preferring to spend it watching football and eating "mayo nut spoonsies" (spoonfuls of mayonnaise and peanuts). But we have a better idea: celebrate Turkey Day with the best Thanksgiving episodes […]
Hey, critters! If you're a fan of Critical Role — that self-described "bunch of nerdy-ass voice actors who sit around playing Dungeons and Dragons" on Twitch and YouTube — then you know they've been hard at work bringing the story of their first campaign to life in their animated series The Legend of Vox Machina. […]
The long-delayed The New Mutants is showing everyone its true nature as it hits the top of both Vudu and FandangoNOW's lists of the most profitable films for the past week. Buoyed by strong word of mouth (or perhaps morbid curiosity?), and despite middling reviews, the scrappy young mutants seem to be clawing to the […]
The rumors keep swirling that Tom Hardy will be the next person to take up the role of James Bond after No Time To Die hits theaters in 2021. And while in many ways he is perfect for the role (and there are many reasons to believe these rumors are not true), we can do […]
Want to get ready to punch and kick bad guys? Work your core muscles to get ready to fly? Then the Supergirl stunt team has you covered. From their home base in Vancouver, stunt coordinator Simon Burnett and his crew — fight choreographer James Michalopoulos, Jesse Rath (Brainy/Querl Dox) stunt double Adrian Persad, and Melissa […]
Fans got a peek at all things under the cowl at DC's Fandome Explore the Multiverse event with a panel discussion from Batwoman's cast and creatives led by New York Times writer Trish Bendix and featuring Executive Producer/Showrunner Caroline Dries, Executive Producer Sarah Schechter plus cast members Javicia Leslie (Ryan Wilder/Batwoman), Rachel Skarsten (Alice), Meagan […]
When you want an immediately iconic villain, better call Giancarlo Esposito. He is Gus Fring in Breaking Bad and Better Call Saul, Moff Gideon in The Mandalorian, and Stan Edgar in The Boys. He is everywhere, and with good reason. For a long time, Esposito has been a secret weapon, adding gravitas, menace, or whatever […]
So much weight has been placed on Christopher Nolan's newest film Tenet that it almost isn't fair. In a typical 2020, it would've been just another blockbuster set amongst half a dozen others. But 2020 is anything but normal, and with movie theaters closed for months, the expectations that Tenet will bring people back to […]
