“Rock and roll is not over! Rock and roll never dies!” Josh’s rating: “Hey mister, do you know Rock ‘n’ Roll?” Josh’s review: At no point since its inception was rock and roll closer to death than the year 1999. The radio was packed with teenage pop stars with spiked-up hair, Santana had a number […]
For our debut column in Revisited, a series devoted to looking back at cult classics, we’re kicking off with Savage Steve Holland’s famous 1985 surreal comedy, Better Off Dead! Looking back at Better Off Dead, how does it hold up today? Natalie: This is an underrated ’80s classic! As a dark comedy that honestly flew right […]
“Maybe I don’t wanna come back.” Josh’s rating: A night at the pub with the boys gone wrong. Josh’s review: Avengement is a weirdly titled action movie that almost plays like a bottle episode of a very violent television series. “Hey, remember that time I chopped that guy’s hand off?” Flashback “Yeah, that was great.” Scott […]
This morning I shook off a bit of low-level anxiety and broke a stubborn habit by going to an in-person conference in Leeds. A lovely city in the North of England I don’t get to often enough. On the train home, experiencing that peculiar mix of elation and exhaustion that arrives when the music stops and the party ends, I’m reflecting on what made it a brilliant day and why I’ve let opportunities…
Remember movie songs that would drive soundtrack sales and trigger fond memories of favorite flicks? The Mutants do, which is why we asked everyone to share some of their go-to movie songs! Josh: I had to give myself some criteria before I started otherwise this would have gotten way out of control. Music is actually […]
La seconda stagione di Beef si chiude con un’immagine che, più che offrire una vera risoluzione, rimette tutto in discussione. La serie Netflix torna con un nuovo gruppo di personaggi e sposta il proprio baricentro su due coppie: Josh e Lindsay, da una parte, Ashley e Austin, dall’altra. Il contesto è quello di un ambiente […]

“Well I get a little nervous when someone tries to kill me.” Josh’s review: Mining my memory in an attempt to uncover my earliest exposure to Chuck Norris yielded little results. Much like Star Wars, I can’t recall when I first saw one of his films; he has just kind of always been there. I’m […]
Ever pause to think, “Whatever happened to that actor who used to be all over the place?” Us too! This month, we asked the team to ruminate on popular actors who fell off the radar: Anthony: I have to go with Mia Sara. I first “met” her back in 1986 when Ferris Bueller decided to […]
“You don’t have to be invisible to disappear.” Josh’s review: When you were a kid, did your drawings make the fridge? Have you as a progeny-possessing parent pinned your kid’s art to a board? What did that look like? I mean, really look like? A sun with eyes, flying Vs as birds, blue grass, stick […]
A chuva tamborilava no telhado da oficina enquanto Josh ajustava o último parafuso. O som do metal ecoava pelo espaço apertado, misturado ao cheiro de graxa e café passado há horas. — Ainda nessa? — Leandro apareceu na porta, jogando as chaves sobre a bancada. — Já passa da meia-noite.

“You can’t leave now, it’s pizza time!” Josh’s review: Allow me to paint you a picture. It’s 1995 and the snow is falling outside. A young Josh is crouched on his floor. In one hand, a Batman Forever Ice Blade Batman action figure, and in the other, a Surfing Michelangelo with the chest decal long […]
“I need to be a monk?” “That’s right, it’s the only way to defeat evil” “That means I need to shave my head?” Josh’s review: Hong Kong kickboxer Chan Wing (Lung-Wei Wang, Five Deadly Venoms) is brutally beat up by dirty fighting Thai fighter Bu Bo (Bolo Yeung, Bloodsport). Although he technically wins the fight, […]
“I’m taking reality and making it look like make-believe. That’s a special effect too.” Josh’s review: Mary Jean abandoned her family in a small rural town and ran away to New York to pursue her dream of fame. Only, like so many before her, that dream didn’t come true. When we meet MJ, played by […]
