Consumer Entitlement With Entertainment Products: Or Why Everyone Needs To Stop Worrying So Much About Imaginary Stuffs And Find Better Things To Do With Their Time

A quick little post about toxic fandom, entitlement, and how the entertainment industry owes you nothing. No big deal…

Unpopular Opinions – Nerfed Llamas Edition

Unpopular Opinions – Nerfed Llamas Edition Hi everyone! I have, on more than one occasion, taken folks to task for how they engage social media. There is a responsibility that one must consider before they start dropping their “hot takes” and “snarky truths.” The problem is that most people (judging by the collective dumpster fires that are Facebook, Twitter, and Instagram) don’t take this responsibility into consideration before posting their special brand of vitriol and/or rude commentary out for all the whole world to see. My argument was always that…

Marvel’s Spider-Man: Homecoming – The Nerfed Llamas Review

Marvel’s Spider-Man: Homecoming – The Nerfed Llamas Review. Spider-Man, Spider-Man, does whatever a spider can… or does he? Another summer… another superhero film. Ah, but a new Spider-Man film is not just a superhero movie, it’s a movie featuring my absolute favorite comic book hero of all time. I could hit you with a gushing diatribe about my love for Spider-Man like I did with James Bond and Mass Effect, but I’ll keep it simple: I’ve been reading Spider-Man comics for over 30 years and have read every single issue…

Thoughts on Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D. season 5 @jedwhedon @MoTancharoen @Marvel

Thoughts on the direction that Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D. season 5 could take – #itsallconnected…again, again, still, and on and on, yadda, yadda, yadda. *** SPOILER FREE: This posting will be spoiler free – so feel free to read safely with the knowledge that if you haven’t seen the series or the season 4 finale, I won’t ruin any of it for you. ***  Last year I did a write up about what I thought might get incorporated into the next season of Marvel’s Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D. I had a lot of fun…

For A Good Time, Call… A Movie Pitch for Full Moon Features @RealCharlesBand

For A Good Time, Call… A Movie Pitch for Full Moon Features As promised for my 2nd annual Full Moon Features celebration, a new month of Full Moon reviews & articles, and a brand new movie pitch as well! Hello to Charles Band and to all of the fine creative individuals at Full Moon Features, as well as my amazing readers (that’s you!). My name is Packy Smith, and I have been working on a new movie pitch for Full Moon Features this month. First and foremost, I would like to thank…

Trancers III: The Nerfed Llamas Review @fullmoonhorror @RealCharlesBand

Trancers III: The Nerfed Llamas Review – Deth Lives! Sometimes you just want to watch a film that you know that you are going to love, and so that is exactly what I did. The Trancers series has long been a Full Moon Features favorite of mine, and Trancers III: Deth Lives is no exception. For background on my love for the series, read my reviews of Trancers, Trancers: City of Lost Angels, and Trancers II. Needless to say, I’m a huge Trancers geek and finding an excuse to watch…

Vengeance of the Dead: The Nerfed Llamas Review @fullmoonhorror

Vengeance of the Dead: The Nerfed Llamas Review – Wherein We Discuss Sleepwalking, Possessions, and Why Shouldn’t Trust Grandpa Alone in the Basement. I’m reviewing Vengeance of the Dead today as a special request. It is a rare occasion, but I do get some solid feedback from my readers and even some special requests. I couldn’t have been more thrilled to get the request. It came at a rather advantageous time, as I had no idea which Full Moon movie to watch next. So, instead of stabbing in the dark…

Vampire Resurrection: The Nerfed Llamas Review @fullmoonhorror @RealCharlesBand

Vampire Resurrection: The Nerfed Llamas Review – Have you seen my boom mic recently? Selecting a new movie to review can be a finicky process. Sometimes it is as simple as “Ooh, that looks interesting, I should watch that!” A lot of the times though, it’s more like “There’s way too many movies to pick from. It’s gonna take forever to find the right one.” Multiple factors go into deciding which Full Moon movie that I watch, not the least of which being the mood I’m in. Sometimes I’m wide…

Crash and Burn: The Nerfed Llamas Review @fullmoonhorror @RealCharlesBand

Crash and Burn: The Nerfed Llamas Review – Wherein we answer the difficult question of whether or not human prostitutes are better in the sack than synthetic ones… I had fun dabbling in the post 2000 catalog of Full Moon Features. I was even surprised by how much fun Ravenwolf Towers was (read the review here) and horror psychologically twisty Deathbed was (read the review here). It was great to experience the newer generation of Full Moon content, but I was ready to crisscross back to another classic film. Preferably something…

Deathbed: The Nerfed Llamas Review @fullmoonhorror @RealCharlesBand

Deathbed: The Nerfed Llamas Review – Psycho Sexual Frustration: the Movie! After my review of Ravenwolf Towers: Episode 1 “Bad Mary” (which you can read here) kept me on the plus side of Full Moon Features from after the year 2000, I though it would be a good idea to stay there and find a new title that I had never seen before. I’m very well versed in Full Moon classics from 80’s and 90’s, but I haven’t seen as many of their modern films. Dedicating a month to watching…
