How does one follow up a movie that is arguably the most entertaining display of blockbuster prowess in recent memory? How does the ever growing Marvel Cinematic Universe hold up these days? The answer is a straight forward and simple as it is beautiful: everybody is doing their job.
Okay, admittedly, once you blow it up this big you can tell which one's Rapunzel.

Episode #130 for The Bourne Legacy, in which our protagonist talks about a slow first act, a second act that seems borrowed from a piece of well-known literature, and a third act that really seems like it was another film. Especially the fact they're on motorcycles.

Review: As a Batman Loyalist, I hesitate to say this is the greatest comic book movie of all time, but only for a second. Because it was the GREATEST comic book movie of all time. The action was awesome, no character was under-utilized, and there were four separate instances that made me fall out of my chair laughing with glee. Also because the Hulk is my spirit animal. See it, and be more awesome for it.
Time: 20 seconds
Episode #117 for The Avengers 3D, in which our protagonist is so drunk with glee he has to get Bailey to drive (and co-review), thinks Disney is feeling a lot better about their year and only has one nit that he has to pick. Otherwise, this is him drunk on just the film. He wants to make that clear.

Where to begin? Let me predict just one simple thing: Starting May 4th, you will believe the hype. The Avengers is everything you would want from a blockbuster movie. It's loud, fast, charming, funny and such a ride, you will want to see it on the biggest screen, in the best theater.
The story is pretty simple and uses a lot of the more subtle elements that were introduced in the "prequels" to this big superhero team-up: Loki (Hiddleston) is back in a big bad way, with the aid of an alien race, he is trying to conquer the world and to be worshiped as the god he is. In order to do so, he uses the energy cube we were introduced to in Captain America to arrive on earth. Since it has been analyzed by SHIELD, his arrival is neither unnoticed nor without consequence. Loki's escape and theft of the energy cube is the introduction to the movie and gives you a good idea what's about to come: a very fast and loud ride. Nick Fury activates the Avengers Initiative to fight Loki and protect the earth from whatever else might be coming.
Episode #95 for Mission: Impossible: Ghost Protocol, in which our protagonist explains his history with the feature film franchise, brings up Incredibles 2 simply because he can, and offers Brad Bird another directing job (not that it's his to offer, but why not, right?).

How does someone become a serial killer? Experts point to childhood abuse, neurological damage, or even genetic predisposition. But none of these theories fully explain why some people turn to murder and some don't. These concepts are addressed, if not answered, in Dahmer. Taking place near the end of his run, Dahmer (Renner) is busy collecting victims, but is in a reflexive mood. This mood intensifies when he doesn't give one of them, Rodney (Kayaru), enough drugs to knock him out and he remains conscious. Having to actually interact with him, Dahmer flashes back to the incidents that may have started him on this course and on his father (Davison) who also tried to reach out to Jeffery, but couldn't begin to see what dark desires lurked behind his son's eyes.
