Murder was just the beginning
Put this one off for a while, largely because it’s me and I get cinematically distracted.Anyways, tonight we dive into a mystery on a river, where a corpse is bound to show up. A glamorous party for a rich wedding, and after a good while mystery is afoot - but it’s also got some folks I recognize and some I don’t, and it’s got that classic 20’s look, so it should be fun! Tonight, there’s Death on the Nile.

I’m pretty sure everyone - or at least a sizeable amount of anyone - is quite excited for the soon to drop John Wick entry. I am as well - even if I realize I can’t remember what was from chapter 2 and what was from chapter 3, and that might be a problem jumping into 4, so I think it’s time to get this site up to date with all the franchise before I go on to the next furious showing of action cinema. If you want peace, Parabellum.

Time to wrap up the animated selection of last weeks’ choice. Gotta get it done up - after all, next week is the last logical chance to finish of the Wick franchise before the new one of those hits the theaters! Before we get too far though, this one’s a bit more interesting than the standard fare - well, at least it might not be entirely what you are expecting anyways. Ever got to watch one movie and find out someone spilled a bunch of another movie into it? That’s a little like what tonight’s going to feel like as we travel the wasteland of Snow Blind.

Super long titles for super long franchises1 We love video games in this building, and although I’d make the argument I’m not innately a real violent guy, I do enjoy me some pretty brutal games. That being said, I also admit that I haven’t legit sat down and played an entry in this particular franchise since that N64 side-story staring a certain blue ninja, so I’m obviously way out of touch with the games and more in touch with the movies. Funny thing about that statement though - I found out I missed two animated movies! Well we’ll just have to fix that won’t we? Tonight, it’s back to the tournament with Mortal Kombat Legends: Battle of the Realms.

I need to focus my brain so I can get myself to do more charity streaming this year. I may end up delving into some solo acts, which given the “decided” genre for the year means a lot of things that aren’t consistent with said “solo acts.” One might even say that it could be like the good thing you are trying to do is putting you against the entire seeming world outside of your building - like if you were a cop whose office was under siege from seedy types. What’s this though - am I seeing double vision? Oh, no, they just remade it at some point and I have to choose one - tonight we launch Assault on Precinct 13.

I thought about doing a horror movie tonight, but opted instead to go with a mystery flick. Granted, I could have saved a half an hour by doing a horror movie - but sometimes long doesn’t mean taxing, and there’s mild hope that a little extra runtime will help the mystery element develop to it’s maximum intrigue. Anyways, to be perfectly honest, I misread the description and though this was supposed to be some alternate fantasy world where Sherlock Holmes teams up with Edgar Allen Poe to solve a murder, but quickly realized it’s just some guy like Sherlock teaming up with Poe to solve a mystery - so why don’t we sit down and find out the mystery of The Pale Blue Eye.

Ever wonder what would happen if someone watched John Wick and wanted it to be more funny? Well you might be in luck with tonight’s colorful adventure into the world of hitmen and crime. It’s one part mystery, one part actioneer, and a colorful mix of characters, jokes, and near-cartoonish situations. Get ready for a long ride - tonight we get on the Bullet Train.
Read MoreGone today, here tomorrow
A really fun movie was Edge of Tomorrow. It had another name, but I like the original name better - and that of course was something that derived from - at least in concept if nothing else - Groundhogs Day. Now, this is just a conceptual standpoint sort of thing, and evolutionary stand point to get to tonight’s movie - so I know all about where EoT actually got ripped form, but case in point there’s a lot of movies about repeating the same day ad nauseum, and tonight’s movie is another one such film. Much like the genre core itself, it seems these movies will never end, and to find out if that’s a good thing tonight we once more hit the replay button and take our best chance on the Boss Level.

Science fiction night tonight baby. Since I’ve already thrown out the whole “trying to not do new movies in the long-format” thing, here’s a fresh off the press one from Netflix and some lovely folks over in Korea whose name’s I’d only butcher pronouncing them cause I’m bad at that. We’ve got robots, we’ve got AI, and we’ve got a very interesting looking trailer to pull me in. Tonight, we light up some yellow as we check out Jung_E.

If I’m being honest, I watched this movie when it first came out. I thought I had already done a review for it back when I watched it, but in typical me fashion I either live in a computer-world where my AI overlords are constantly altering things to mess with me, or I just thought I did and didn’t per norms. We’ve got some action, we’ve got some emotional strings, we got all sorts of things - including some fun facts that I learned on making of’s and that fun Stuntmen Reacts on YouTube. Get the crew together, it’s time to get to Extraction.

I saw a trailer and cover art and went “Why yes, this looks like some fun.” I figured it would be a more Japanese, anime-influenced take on something like Gunpowder Milkshake. Oh man, was I off in that call. Strap in for some whiplash action and a crap load of laughs, tonight you’ll find yourself questioning The Violence Action.

I’m merciless with some of the tie-in stuff I do when it comes to logical steps in my thought chains. You see, one of my side gigs - really a hobby with slightly more effort invested - is charity streaming on my YouTube channel raising funds for a little outfit known as Extra Life - effectively raising money for Children’s Hospitals. For this year, I decide the theme was going to be horde games- you know, those cookie cutter games where you fight your way to an objective and then hold out against incredibly odds until you need to go to the next objective? Well, where all this ties in to tonight’s movie is really at the concept of that - get to an objective and survive the waves. Tonight things get slightly biblical at the apt named diner, tonight we are introduced to Legion.
