Peter’s Movie Pick of the Week: Justice League

So, I know that there’s been a lot of negativity surrounding the DCEU, but I’ve been enjoying the ride so far. My problems with it aside, Man of Steel was a decent start to this movie universe and I’m one of the (purportedly few) people who really loved Batman v. Superman: Dawn of Justice. Suicide Squad was a bit lackluster, but still a pretty fun action flick. Earlier this year we had Wonder Woman, which everyone seemed to love. Now we have Justice League. (Some Spoilers)

Peter’s Movie Pick of the Week: Brigsby Bear

It’s very rare that I come across something that really inspires me. When you have a story to tell, it eats away at your insides. You want to share your idea with the world, but you’re also afraid that the world may reject it. It doesn’t matter though, it’s a part of you, no matter the circumstances. I feel like that’s what it means to be an artist, whether you’re trying to make a movie, write a story, or paint a picture. It is an extension of you and who you are. These feelings overwhelmed me as I watched Brigsby Bear.

Peter’s Movie Pick of the Week: Pan’s Labyrinth

Guillermo Del Toro is an amazing writer and director. I am hard pressed to think of one of his movies that I didn’t enjoy. Of course, some are stronger than others and, in my opinion, Pan’s Labyrinth is his masterpiece. I remember when I first saw it in the theater, walking out and knowing that I had seen what a movie should be.

Journey Into Obscurity: Patchwork

In the days of the video store, a ton of weird movies would end up on the shelves. Some were better than others, and some were just unwatchable. They would lure you in with cover art, but you’d soon discover that the content within was worlds away from what you were promised. There was no way to check out a trailer or google search reviews on your phone, you just had to take a gamble. Or maybe ask one of the workers or patrons if they knew anything about the movie.

Peter’s Movie Pick of The Week: Pumpkinhead

So I knew that this was going to be a hard one. I mean, it’s the day after Halloween, so there’s a bit of pressure on me. Do I go with a classic? Something a bit more contemporary? Well, I finally decided on Pumpkinhead!

The Hitchhiker’s Guide to Rick and Morty

For a while now, I’ve wanted to give Rick and Morty some time on Dissecting Fiction. Like many, I fell in love with this show and see no signs of getting tired of it anytime soon. That said, I find that, Adult Swim shows are hit or miss.
