    The Big Picture: Link Be A Lady

    The idea that the decision to change the gender of a character (either female or male, it makes no difference) just because it would be "different" is a concept that I can't help but question both as a person who enjoys art and as a artist myself (writer and musician). Gaming is at a...

    How Can Sony Pictures Save Spider-Man?

    As far as Miles Morales goes, there is one significant hurdle that can't be ignored, to the majority of people who might potentially see a Spider-man movie, Spider-man is Peter Parker, it is not about racism, it is not about being a angry troll or a fanboy who can't let go of the past...

    The Accuracy Trap in the Marvel Cinematic Universe

    it is funny, I felt that 'Man of steel' was actually a pretty decent film adaptation of the comics, I say this as someone who has spent many years reading said comics and keeping up with the general evolution and development as the years go on. Here is the thing, 'Man of steel' did the same...

    The Big Picture: Ranking the Marvel Movies

    I don't know, I mean, I largely agree with the list (though I would put Iron Man 1 a bit higher to be honest) but I just can't help but feel that Bob's love for the 'The winter soldier' is a bit hypocritical. I have been watching Bob's videos for a good bit of time (a couple of years at...

    The Big Picture: Baggage

    I don't really get his angle here, I mean, he is essentially saying that one should not critique a film, game, book, etc based only on the subject at hand and instead should use that review as a soapbox for personal or political opinion that may or may not have any direct relation to the work...

    The Big Picture: Summer's End

    I can't be the only one that kinda rolled my eyes when I learned that we were going to get yet another episode about Bob's almost obsessive dislike of the 'The man of steel'. Look, I get it, WE ALL get it, you did not like the film and that is perfectly fine, however, your dislike of the...

    The Big Picture: In Defense of "Booth Babes" (sort of)

    I love watching MovieBob's stuff, in fact, I usually look forward to both this show and his 'Escape to the movies' show but lately, I don't know, it seems like he has attached himself to specific issues and personal beliefs and perhaps not in the best way. I won't get into my issues with...
