Ten years ago,Al Gorewent theatrical with his case for climate change, releasingAn Inconvenient Truthin theaters. The film was Gore’s passionate plea for action to be taken to stop the effects of climate change before it’s too late. Unfortunately, in the 10 years since, not near enough action has been taken.

One of my most highly anticipated shows of 2018 isBlack Lightning. The CW sent the first two episodes for press to see, but since they weren’t for review I can’t comment on them officially yet. But what I can say is that, yes, you should be hyped. The show is not like the series of theArrow-verse in almost any way, except for the fact that they all happen to focus on superheroes....

Althoughhis debut in 1973’sLive and Let Diesuggested that Moore could take the franchise in an inventive, original direction, his subsequent films grew increasingly silly and unfocused.Bond managed to go to space inMoonraker, skate down a mountain inFor Your Eyes Only, and dress up as a clown inOctopussy.By the time that Moore made his last appearance as 007 inA View to a Kill, the film felt closer to aZucker brothersparody than an actual Bond entry....
