Blog Update


     *************Update: Disregard this post. Things didn't work out.***************
     To all ten people that follow this blog,
     I've recently been hired at a full time position that requires most of my attention. As a result, I will no longer be able to post as many article to this blog as I would like to. My posts will be more sporadic from here on out. I'm currently working on a series of comic book reviews for the major story arcs on Geoff Johns' run on the Green Lantern including Green Lantern: Rebirth, Sinestro Corps. War, and Blackest Night. I also hope to post my review of the Netflix show, Mindhunter sometime during the weekend.

     Sayonara,
     Mister Jacob

Movie Review: The Lion King

         1994 was a good year. 1994 in retrospect was probably one of the greatest years in film history. Pulp Fiction, Forrest Gump, and The Shawshank Redemption  were all released that year. 1994 was also great because that was the year of my birth. It is no coincidence that so many great movies came out the year I was born. Anyways, there was also one movie that was released in 1994 that is a personal favorite of mine.             The Lion King was directed by Roger Allers and Rob Minkoff. The screenplay was written by Irene Mecchi, Jonathan Roberts, and Linda Woolverton.

The Disney Renaissance was an unprecedented run of success for the studio. In this ten year period Disney released The Little Mermaid, Beauty and the Bea...

Review: Spider-Man PS4

***THIS IS A (RELATIVELY) SPOILER FREE REVIEW***        It's been a while since Spider-Man has gotten the video game treatment. His last few outings in this medium have been mediocre and at times down right horrible due to the fact that they were movie tie-ins. In fact, many would say that Spider-Man 2,  which came out in 2004 was the last great Spider-Man video game (I would argue that Ultimate Spider-Man , which came out a year later was the last great Spider-Man game, but I digress).  I think we can safely say now that Insomniac Game's  Spider-Man PS4  has claimed it's place as the definitive Spider-Man game. This game has it's flaws, but it's one of the most fun I've had playing a video game in a long time.              Spider-Man PS4  is a free-roaming game that features a twenty-three year old Peter Parker that is entering his prime as New York City's Wall Crawler. However, he still has ...
