"Lass is More," "Jurassic World," "Tomorrowland," and the Apocalypse
Today’s Lass is More looks at the end times, or at least an end times or two postulated in a couple of this summer’s crop of blockbusters that have recently arrived on Blu-ray and DVD. I think it’s actually pretty… Read More ›
007(x3) Weeks of 007 #21 – "Casino Royale"

Revisiting "Jurassic Park" and How Young is too Young
Several weeks (months) ago, I said that I was going to take my daughter to see “Jurassic Park,” that I thought she was old enough to handle it, that I believed she would have no nightmares, but that I wasn’t… Read More ›
Movie Review: "Momentum" (2015) Offers Little Excitement
Some movies open with such promise, such fun and amusement that you are instantly intrigued. Unfortunately, sometimes these great opening sequences are not followed by anything remotely as enjoyable. Such is the case with Stephen S. Campanelli’s “Momentum” (2015). Starring… Read More ›
007(x3) Weeks of 007 #20 – "Die Another Day"
This week’s 007(x3) Weeks of 007 features Pierce Brosnan’s much maligned final outing as James Bond, “Die Another Day.” And here’s the thing about the movie – it may be the weakest one Brosnan did but if you look at… Read More ›
Movie Review: "Goosebumps"
There is something unsettling about the Rob Letterman directed “Goosebumps,” and it isn’t the scares that it offers. At first glance, the new film about the monsters R.L. Stine creates in his books coming to life feels like an updated… Read More ›

Okay, but why do I Like New York Comic-Con?

Movie Review: "Room" (2015)
Some movies devastate you. You watch them and you wonder about humanity and what you would do in a similar situation and are just shaken for hours after the experience. If that isn’t your kind of thing, don’t watch “Room”… Read More ›

"Lass is More" Looks at Monsters, Horror, and Halloween
I do not like horror movies. This is an intense dislike I have felt for years. But it actually took me years to figure that when I say “I do not like horror movies” that exists with caveats. I don’t… Read More ›
"Lass is More" Talks to Actress (and more) Tracey Birdsall
Yes, it’s Monday, but we’ve got a new episode of Lass is More anyway! Why? Because we recorded it, because it’s interesting, because we’ve got a minisode coming later this week. There are, in short, any number of reasons to… Read More ›
