Rosemary Wells - Max Cleans Up
Messy to the Max
by gliondar
Pros: Cute, funny story with characters kids can relate to

Ivan Brunetti - An Anthology of Graphic Fiction, Cartoons & True Stories
The Best Introduction to Graphic Art on the Market
by mikeyhustle
Pros: Extremely diverse, truly some of the best, hundreds of stories in one volume
Cons: That diversity means that you just aren't going to like some of the things inside
Graphic narrative has a long history, arguably going back to Hieroglyphs, or even further. Modern graphic narrative (yes, comics) comes in so many forms that sampling them all can be hard on the brain. Ivan Brunetti's collection puts together a sampling ...

Mark Bryant - Wars Of Empire In Cartoons
19th-century political cartoons on England's colonial Empire
by henryberry
Pros: noteworthy survey of nineteenth-century British political cartoons and issues relating to colonialism
Cons: text pretty generalized regarding issues and situations depicted in the cartoons
In this latest of Bryant's several works on cartoons and satirical illustrations on British history, Winston Churchill's comment that cartoons are a "good way to learn history" is evidenced. The cartoons are what Americans know as political or editorial ...

X-Files, The: Tunguska/Terma
In "Tunguska" And "Terma," Mulder And Scully Find A Variant Of The Black Oil Creature!
by wlswarts
Pros: Good character work, Freaky acting, Decent special effects
Cons: Story gets a bit convoluted here.
"The X-Files" had a slow arc to greatness and a pretty long collapse for its decent. This is a belief I held for some time, but never realized just how derailed the show became until I had the opportunity to watch the episodes closely repeatedly. As I ...

Innocence
Innocence (Charles Tingwell/Julia Blake) : Love has no age limit.
by ladyconsumer
Pros: This beautiful film explores a theme typically ignored by Hollywood.
Cons: A few scenes seemed a bit out of place.
Paul Cox's film Innocence is so refreshing because it dares to do what Hollywood never does:  It allows seniors to have leading roles, to have love affairs, and, yes, to have sex.  Compared to mainstream movies, where anyone over 40 is ...

Gene Dewese - Star Trek: Renegade
Who IS That Bad Guy Anyway?
by Bruguru
Pros: Entertaining for the most part.
Cons: Missed opportunites with McCoy and Spock, ending a bit anti-climactic.
Some of the best Star Trek novels (and films, too, for that matter) seem to be inspired by episodes of the classic series, often being direct sequels to them.  Most immediately, I think of Greg Cox three novels that tie in the characters Gary ...

Christopher Lane - Shyness: How Normal Behavior Became a Sickness
Shyness: How Normal Behavior Became a Sickness (Christopher Lane): "There's a Pill For That"

Pros: Makes you think about taking that pill.
Cons: Mood brightening is addictive.
The pharmaceutical industry would have consumers (suckers) believe that there is a pill for everything. Being that Americans are among the world's leading pill poppers, it is not surprising that the psychiatric community is one of the pill poppers ...

Pros: Strong acting from Craig, great followup to Casino Royale, More for M to do...
Cons: Villain was weaker than I'd hoped...
I'm really only a casual James Bond fan.  I haven't even seen all 22 movies.  Part of me loves the sci-fi gadgetry of the older movies--like the car that can turn into a submarine, or the jetpack that can fold down into a suitcase--but after ...

Cons: Not a thing.
In a world full of barely singin', female sexpots with manufactured sex appeal, Betty Davis comes off as even more of an original. You can truly say that they don't make 'em like her anymore. Her fusion of funk and rock, sex and sass was way ahead of ...
