The narrative of Epitaphs #2 is split between the band of survivors who are determined to wipe out any tech that they come across and Alpha and the Ivies on their hunt to find Echo, convinced that Echo is the answer to all of their problems. Read More

It seems detrimental to me to stagger release dates in this brave new world where the push of a button or the click of a mouse can give you access to a movie that’s just not available in your region. If you want to stop movie piracy, there has to at Read More

I’ve never seen Paul Giamatti give a bad performance in a movie. It’s entirely true that I’ve seen him in some questionable movies, but he’s never been anything less than excellent when he’s been on screen. He might be one of the best and most Read More
