For my 2018 Resolution Project, I decided to take a page out of Lane’s book and do my own Silver Screen Resolution (hence the Take Two part of the title). There are a lot of movies out there I haven’t seen but feel like I should have, or movies that I’ve simply wanted to see […]

This year I resolved to read more classic science fiction and fantasy, hopefully making a dent in that stack of books I really should have read by now. Mostly because they should be good books, but also to be better informed about my genre and its history. I decided that this meant reading six science […]

Stranger Things is an entertaining walk back into the 1980s with a modern sensibility that allows representation through the gift of hindsight. The characters are richly developed, and the storyline delivers all the thrills and chills fantasy fans could ever want.
