Josh Zyber — Mon, 19 Aug 2019 12:00:19 +0000

Trapped right between the hustle and bustle of last week’s Marvel onslaught and next week’s giant monster smackdown are a handful of movies that you may have forgotten were released earlier this year. In some cases, that could be for the best. New Releases (Blu-ray) The Hustle – Rebel Wilson and Anne Hathaway star in...

Now Streaming: Good Omens

Even as his American Gods fell apart in its second season, allegedly due in some part to the author’s interference, Neil Gaiman split his attention to a second television project more under his direct control. Amazon’s Good Omens is in some ways a more consistent and successful piece of work, but leaves me thinking that...

American Gods 2.01 Recap: “Evolve or Die”

Josh Zyber — Wed, 13 Mar 2019 16:00:00 +0000

Amid reports of intense behind-the-scenes turmoil that resulted in a nearly two-year absence since the first season aired, Starz’s dazzling if confounding American Gods has finally returned for a second outing. Has the series been gone too long, and does it have any magic left? During the hiatus, original show-runners Bryan Fuller and Michael Green...

Are any exciting new Blu-rays headed our way this week? My spidey sense is tingling… New Releases (Blu-ray) ‘Spider-Man: Homecoming‘ – People complained when Spider-Man got rebooted with Andrew Garfield just five years after Tobey Maguire, yet he’s already been rebooted again just three years since Garfield’s last movie and everyone seems fine with it....

‘American Gods’ 1.08 Recap: “You Wouldn’t Believe in Me If I Told You”

Josh Zyber — Wed, 21 Jun 2017 12:00:11 +0000

One of the strangest TV shows currently on the air (perhaps not the strangest, but one of them at least), ‘American Gods’ ended its short first season on Starz this week. Befitting such an unconventional series, the last episode hardly feels like a stopping point at all, much less a finale. It’s a good thing...

‘American Gods’ Pilot Recap: “Devil’s in the Details”

Josh Zyber — Tue, 02 May 2017 12:00:38 +0000

Between ‘Legion‘ on FX and now ‘American Gods’ on Starz, I don’t think I’ve ever been so delighted to watch a TV series without having a clear idea of what the hell is going on in it. These shows are both really weird, but in fascinating ways. ‘American Gods’ is based on the 2001 fantasy...
