    On the Radar… (September Edition)

    Fall, officially the best season! No ifs, ands, or buts about it anymore. As we continue to pump carbon into the atmosphere and cook our planet alive, the thought of the weather cooling down and the trees taking on different shades of amber and brownish colors will become a lot more appealing to us for… […] More

    On the Radar… (Late Summer Edition)

    So now that the fall season is coming up, I’ll have to revert back to the monthly editions of these On the Rader… pieces since there’s no way I’ll be able to cover an entire season of major upcoming releases and awards players in just one article. But right now, it’s the calm before the […] More

    On the Radar… (Summer Edition)

    And now we reach the heart of what Dan and Jordan would call the “dreamy creamy summer!” The summer blockbusters are trickling back into theaters because we’re all still clinging to the comforting myth that COVID-19 will go away if we just wish it away hard enough, Tom Cruise is dominating the box office to […] More

    On the Radar… (Spring Edition)

    Springtime is here! And so is war in Ukraine. And more pandemic awesomeness but with fewer resources and preparedness to deal with the predicted surge because I guess governments have all decided that they can just… declare diseases to be over? Okay, sure. And did you say seven hours are missing? Cool, cool. So now […] More

    On the Radar… (Beginning of the Year Edition)

    Happy New Year, everyone! And Happy Marjorie Taylor-Greene Got Permanently Suspended from Twitter Day! Which was technically a few days ago, but I still feel like celebrating that. These first three months of the year are, with one exception, kind of a “dumping ground” for movies, not only the bad studio dreck that its distributors […] More

    On the Radar… (December Edition)

    Ho, ho, ho! Meeerrrrry Christmas! Or Happy Holidays, a phrase that was not invented by woke liberals in the last few years but something that people have been saying to each other since 1863. Now we’re really getting into the final push for the last-minute Oscar contenders. I personally can’t stand how many of these […] More

    On the Radar… (November Edition)

    Happy November, everyone! Like the upcoming Thanksgiving holiday, we’re about to get stuffed with a full smorgasbord, a seven-course meal with plenty of leftovers, if you will, of Marvel movies, wide releases, streaming releases, major Oscar contenders for pretty much all categories (including the arguable Best Picture frontrunner and inarguable Best Lead Actress and Best […] More

    On the Radar… (October Edition)

    Now it’s time for me to make some zero-sum decisions. Because I can’t cover every notable film release for the remainder of this year unless I’m willing to write multiple 10,000-word articles. Which I’m not. So what do I do? Pontificate about all of the “major” mainstream releases of the month, even ones that I […] More

    On the Radar… (September Edition)

    Okay, another big change to this series because now that we’re at the heat of the awards season, when the heavy hitters start to come and make their play for serious Oscar attention, I cannot handle two months apiece for what will become a mammoth telescope into the future over the rest of the year.
