‘The Road to Cyberpunk 2077’: Without ‘Ghost in the Shell’, We May Not Have ‘The Matrix’ – ScreenHub Entertainment

I recently lamented how Robert Rodriguez’s cyberpunk action flick Alita: Battle Angel suffered due to a bloated script and lack of any real themes. It was a fun popcorn movie, but considering the genre, there was potential for so much more. While Alita may have failed to ask some of the harder questions, Ghost in the Shell on the other hand asks them in spades. … Continue reading ‘The Road to Cyberpunk 2077’: Without ‘Ghost in the Shell’, We May Not Have ‘The Matrix’ – ScreenHub Entertainment

Kurt Russell Can’t Save ‘The Christmas Chronicles’ – ScreenHub Entertainment

Making its debut in 2018, The Christmas Chronicles was quite the trendsetter when it came out and all that people talked about for a spell at the time. How come, you may ask? Well, that’s the question I asked myself. Curiously, there weren’t too many reviews out on the movie from critics I admire and trust, leading me to finally decide to give this holiday … Continue reading Kurt Russell Can’t Save ‘The Christmas Chronicles’ – ScreenHub Entertainment

Why I Think ‘Blade Runner 2049’ Is Better Than The Original – ScreenHub Entertainment

Spoiler alert. Let me just put it out there. Unlike Fred’s glowing recommendation of the influential Ridley Scott film, Blade Runner, I for one, am not a fan of it, regardless of which cut it is. Which is why I was so surprised that I loved Denis Villeneuve’s 2017 sequel, Blade Runner 2049. The sequel came out over thirty years after the release of the … Continue reading Why I Think ‘Blade Runner 2049’ Is Better Than The Original – ScreenHub Entertainment

Why The Original ‘Blade Runner’ Remains My Favourite – ScreenHub Entertainment

Since Blade Runner 2049 hit theatres back in 2017, there was a new hype surrounding the cinematic sci-fi world launched by Sir Ridley Scott back in 1982. Underrated and possibly ‘underappreciated’ by most moviegoers, this franchise finally got the prestige and the attention it deserves. In fact, this is the very same franchise that helped launch the genre called “Cyberpunk“, which merges futuristic dystopia, hacker … Continue reading Why The Original ‘Blade Runner’ Remains My Favourite – ScreenHub Entertainment

By The Gods, You Should Absolutely Be Watching ‘Blood of Zeus’ – ScreenHub Entertainment

Spoilers for the first half of the show. Do you like Greek Mythology? Do you think the last few attempts at adapting it, from Immortals to Clash of the Titans were missing something? Well, look no further, as Netflix has you covered with their original animated series, Blood of Zeus. Instead of adapting a preexisting myth, or remaking an old movie, the folks who gave … Continue reading By The Gods, You Should Absolutely Be Watching ‘Blood of Zeus’ – ScreenHub Entertainment

Remember, Remember, ‘V For Vendetta’ – ScreenHub Entertainment

“Remember, remember, the fifth of November, the gunpowder treason and plot.” Every year, people on social media throws this line into the proverbial wind, maybe less so for Guy Fawkes and the gunpowder plot, and more for the political action film V for Vendetta. While Guy would ultimately be hanged for his attempt (and would get a day named after him in the U.K.), the … Continue reading Remember, Remember, ‘V For Vendetta’ – ScreenHub Entertainment

‘The Road to ‘Cyberpunk 2077′: Alita: Battle Angel’ May Have Been Better As A Series – ScreenHub Entertainment

I’m not exactly familiar with Alita: Battle Angel, but like Akira, I’m aware of its impact on pop-culture. I was curious to see what Robert Rodriguez and James Cameron had to offer with this film. The legendary James Cameron wrote this adaptation, but arguably hasn’t really done anything “great” since Titanic. Avatar was, fine, but I think its legacy is dependent on the launch of the … Continue reading ‘The Road to ‘Cyberpunk 2077′: Alita: Battle Angel’ May Have Been Better As A Series – ScreenHub Entertainment

How Does ‘The Thing (2011) Stack Up Against John Carpenter’s Original? – ScreenHub Entertainment

I recently watched John Carpenter’s excellent sci-fi horror film The Thing for the first time. Considering how time is limited until Halloween, I figured it’d be best to cram a few more horror flicks in before we hit November. So why not explore the 2011 version of The Thing? Contrary to what you may think due to the title, this version of the movie isn’t … Continue reading How Does ‘The Thing (2011) Stack Up Against John Carpenter’s Original? – ScreenHub Entertainment
