Updated! Ranking The MCU Films (2020)

Avengers The Avengers Blu-ray 3D

Before “Black Widow” is released and the new MCU era begins, I thought I’d look back at the first 23 films of the MCU. “Spider-Man: Far From Home” makes its debut on this list and I have done a fair amount of re-ordering here as some titles have gone up or down on the list. On with the list! Continue reading

Updated! Ranking The MCU Films (2019)

Avengers Ant

Now that “Avengers: Endgame” is breaking records left and right and dominating watercooler conversations, it felt like the right time to update my personal ranking of the Marvel Cinematic Universe films (or MCU for short). There are three new additions to the list since I last updated and there’s a bit of shuffling in terms of order of other titles. Anyway, enough of my yammering. On with the list! Continue reading

DVDCorner’s Ranking Of The Marvel Cinematic Universe Films

Guardians of the Galaxy Blu-rayCaptain America- The First Avenger Thor Blu-ray

With “Captain America: Civil War” a few days away (hallelujah!), I’ve been in a total Marvel mood these past few weeks. In fact, I have gone back and rewatched every single Marvel Cinematic Universe (MCU) film. To my surprise, some films improved with a rewatch, some films did not, while others remained great. Anyway, enough of my rambling, on with the list! Continue reading

The Rocketeer Blu-ray Guardians of the Galaxy Blu-ray X-Men- First Class

Top 10 Comic Book Movies

Instead of reviewing a DVD or Blu-ray today, I thought I’d mix things up a bit and do another top 10 list. As you may have gathered over the years, I love making lists. Not only do I find it to be fun on a personal level, but it’s also a good way to keep track of films I treasure. Since comic book films/superhero films are all the rage these days, it felt like the right time to tackle that ever growing genre. Please note that these are a list of my personal favorites. No more, no less. Continue reading

The Best And Worst Films And TV Shows Of 2012

Argo       Game Of Thrones        ParaNorman      Sherlock

The Best And Worst Films And TV Shows Of 2012

While some film fans and film critics adored 2012, I felt the year was largely comprised of bloated blockbusters and underwhelming art films. To me, a majority of the films (while often well made) felt distant and never really connected with me personally. Last year, I was overwhelmed with profoundly moving films such as “Moneyball,” “50/50,” “Hugo,” and “Midnight in Paris.” Now, that’s not to say 2012 didn’t have its highlights because it did. No one can deny that 2012’s cinematic offerings weren’t varied as the cinemas (and VODs) were flooded with everything from a talking teddy bear and a Bengal tiger to an extraordinary rescue mission and video game makers.

Meanwhile, on the television front, serialized entertainment once again reigned supreme. Whether I was witnessing the further decline of Walter White on “Breaking Bad” or seeing the astonishing wildfire sequence in “Game Of Thrones,” it’s clear that television is as exciting as it has ever been.

So, without further adieu, here is my annual list! Continue reading
