MARVEL’S AGENTS OF S.H.I.E.L.D. Ep. 2.04: I Will Face My Enemy (TV review)

The title of this week’s episode, I Will Face My Enemy, takes on double meaning with the emphasis on “double.” And “face.” Director Coulson assumes agent duties once more by going undercover with Agent May in a two-to-tango team-up for old time’s sake. They’re also seeking to steal a “miracle painting” before rival Hydra agents […]

MARVEL’S AGENTS OF S.H.I.E.L.D. Episode 2.03: Making Friends and Influencing People (TV review)

Making Friends and Influencing People is not a Bizarro version of the Simon Pegg film, How to Lose Friends and Alienate People.  It’s the name of this week’s Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D. episode but, “Selective Truths” would’ve also been appropriate. That’s a direct quote from Director Coulson to an undercover agent unsure of her ability to […]

MARVEL’S AGENTS OF S.H.I.E.L.D. Episode 2.02: Heavy is the Head (TV review)

Usually we’re eased into a new Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D. episode with a few scenes of status quo before the quo is overturned by the plot. Or an episode begins with a mini-adventure, similar to an Indy film. This time, neither of those occurs. Instead, the second episode of the second season begins right where last […]

GHOSTBUSTERS WEEK on BTM – All the Links

Unless you’ve been stuck in a Ghost Containment Unit for the past two weeks or so, you may have heard that Beyond the Marquee hosted a ‘Ghostbusters Week’ from September 15th thru the 19th. The week was full of videos, interviews and articles all centered around everyone’s favorite Ghostbusting troupe. The appreciative response we got from fans and […]

MARVEL’S AGENTS OF S.H.I.E.L.D. Ep 2.01: Shadows (season premiere review)

Joss Whedon’s Marvel’s Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D. debuted last year with “must see live” hyperbole sprinkled all over it. After some lackluster episodes, the hype devolved into “must see days later via D.V.R.”, followed by “If you have nothing else to do, you may as well watch S.H.I.E.L.D.” Several juvenile episodes later and Marvel Entertainment’s first […]

MR. STAY PUFT — Meeting the Man inside the Marshmallow Man

  I’m not one to get starstruck. That’s not true. I get starstruck as much as the next film buff, but I keep it internal so as to remain “professional.” To paraphrase Bill Murray (from Quick Change, not Ghostbusters), “I’m the starstruck on the inside kind, I guess.” Every now and then, however, the internal […]

GUARDIANS OF THE GALAXY: Soundtrack Review

Summer came to a close this past Labor Day weekend, and with it so too did the summer movie season. Emerging at the top in both box office intake and critical acclaim is Marvel’s Guardians of the Galaxy. The motion picture soundtrack is also faring well. The “Awesome Mix” of cheesy ‘70s and ‘80s pop […]
