Rouvan Silogix is angry about the state of the world, and very understandably so. And what better way to channel that anger than to create a farce about the contemporary political landscape? Silogix’s answer to that question is to create a surrealist vaudeville farce, gloriously entitled Grab ‘Em By the Pussy: Or How To Stop […]
“Lethe” is an interesting oddity in Discovery so far, in that it feels the most like a stand-alone episode we’ve seen to date. We get to see some major character growth from Burnham, see more of Sarek’s history, and gain further insight into Lorca’s state of mind, but ultimately the episode feels more like classic […]

In such a wonderful time of exploratory art and experimentation with multi-media, I was honestly ready for a little bit of good ol’ fashioned dance.

Members of the audience are participants, to varying degrees, just as much […]
Guardians of the Galaxy Episode Four: Who Needs You has a serious identity crisis going on: at first, it seems like one of the most legitimately episodic adventures do date, with our heroes trapped underground and on the run from rock-eating space worms. While the change in scenery from temples was nice, the scenario felt […]
