Firstly, as is customary with my belated review series, I have to apologize for the delay in penning my thoughts on Zack Snyder’s Justice League. But honestly, this time, it’s not my fault. I know I say that all the time, but this time, it really is not my fault;...
Even before I signed up for the designation of ‘dad’, I knew a thing or two about kids. In fact, I’m going to be a bit cocky and assert that I knew as many as three things about kids, not that I can list them out off-hand. One of the...
The sixth installment of Paramount’s Mission Impossible movie franchise is out – Mission Impossible: Fallout, or, as it is known, MI:6, finally catching up to the name of the fictional James Bond’s real life organization.

It’s time once again to bid farewell to a year – 366 days shoved into one concise package, that we wave out of the way in time to welcome the next batch in. Nobody gets a year that goes entirely their way. There will always be several ups and downs, and...
