Because that would be lovely :)In any case, here's a few quick updates on this end:The onlinemoviesmaniahd Anthology ebooks are now available for Nook users, so if that's your format of choice and you don't have them yet, now's your chance.I've published my first "listical" for ScreenRant: "The 9 Biggest 'WTF?' Moments of Batman V Superman." Please enjoy.

Review: BATMAN V SUPERMAN: DAWN OF JUSTICE (Major Spoilers!!!)

This review is possible through donations to The onlinemoviesmaniahd Patreon. If you like what you see, please consider becoming a Patron.Transcript Below:I�m an unapologetic proponent of the superhero movie. The genre has yielded enough genuinely great works during its relatively brief run at the pinnacle of international popular-culture so as to forgive a lot of its missteps, and I firmly believe that it offers tremendous artistic and cultural value to those who would take advantage of it: Superheroes can make us laugh, give us catharsis, embody our fantasies, challenge our perception

TV Review: DAREDEVIL: SEASON 2

This review made possible through donations to The onlinemoviesmaniahd Patreon. If you'd like to see/read/hear more, please consider becoming a patron. SPOILERS after the jump (and in the video):When the first season of DAREDEVIL hit it kinda blew everybody�s mind. Not because of it�s much touted extra helping of sex and violence to set it apart from the rest of the Marvel Cinematic Universe, though that was certainly novel and eyebrow-raising, but because of that plus it turned out to be really, really good.Granted, at this point it feels like Marvel is either getting to that PIXAR point wh

TV Recap: AGENTS OF S.H.I.E.L.D - Season 3 Episode 12: "THE INSIDE MAN"

Yes, I skipped over the first midseason-comeback episode.I watched it, but somehow couldn't summon the urge to say much consequential about it (plus, last week was kind of rough here, so... yeah) other than "I also wonder who that is in the bloody spaceship" and to note that making Talbot the public-face of ATCU-but-actually-S.H.I.E.L.D. is cute foreshadowing for the seemingly-inevitable CIVIL WAR crossover, i.e. even if what's going on with the Inhumans on AGENTS OF S.H.I.E.L.D. and the really similar stuff going on with superheroes in general in the movie don't officially "connect" it's ve

Review: ZOOTOPIA (2016)

NOTE: This review is possible in part through donations to The onlinemoviesmaniahd Patreon. If you like what you see and you'd like to see more like it, please consider becoming a Patron.Okay, so here's the premise of ZOOTOPIA, a movie that kind of plays out like Disney Animation got hold of an unfilmmed script for a Dreamworks movie and said "Hey guys, let us show you what one of these would look like if they didn't suck."Minor SPOILERS follow...So the movie takes place in an Earth-esque world where apparently homo-sapiens never really showed up so instead every damn species of animal evolv

The onlinemoviesmaniahd Anthology: Promotional Video

Review: 10 CLOVERFIELD LANE (SPOILERS)

NOTE I: This review is made possible through the generosity of donors to The onlinemoviesmaniahd Patreon. If you'd like to see more like it, please consider becoming a Patron.NOTE II: See post-script for important information.Here's a perfectly good (excellent, in fact) little movie that's probably going to piss people off because of its title - or, more specifically, its title's part in the twee, self-satisfied meta promotional games of producer JJ Abrams. That's a pity, because once you understand that this really isn't a "sequel" to CLOVERFIELD (thank God...) but rather an attempt to turn

About AGENT CARTER

So. I recognize that I dropped the ball on "covering" the final go-through of AGENT CARTER's second season; a mistake which can be blamed largely on some busy/trying times here around the home office and at least partially on the show becoming increasingly difficult to write interestingly about as the season wore on. Sorry, this one just didn't work for me.However! I did end up writing a "season summation" piece like I'd planned to, it just didn't get posted here. Instead, it got space as part of my new gig over at ScreenRant. You can read it here.Suffice it to say: I don't think Season 2 wo

Two More New eBook Collections: STRANGE HOLLYWOOD and IDIOT BOX!

The big onlinemoviesmaniahd Anthology rollout continues. The three from yesterday and the day before are still available (and will continue to be, since these are digital books) so if you want the details on what's new today, hit the jump:First up is onlinemoviesmaniahd'S IDIOT BOX, which collects my TV writing - some of it coming from this blog, the majority coming from the old "High Definition" column at The Escapist. Lot's of good stuff in this one, and much of it more recent than a lot of the other material: "Tina Saves The World," aka why Tina from BOB'S BURGERS is a groundbreaking char
