“Insurgent” & Other Unnecessary Movie Sequels: Why Do Studios Keep Making Them?
What do The Golden Compass, Eragon, and the Chronicles of Narnia have in common? If you answered “they’re all fantasy films!” then, well… yes, yes, you’re right and I obviously didn’t think this question through well enough because it actually allows for more than … Continue reading
Spring Into A Summer Of Rereading
I plan to read many books this spring and summer. I always do. There’s The Silmarillion to begin and the Heroes of Olympus series to finish and the Maggie Stiefvater books that I haven’t already read. There’s Insurgent and Allegiant. The Maze … Continue reading
