It’s been cemented ever since Iron Man that the Marvel Cinematic Universe is a money-making juggernaut, yet some of us are still in awe at how Avengers: Age of Ultron can make $191.3 million in a single box office weekend. There’s no slowing this proverbial beast down. We’ll have to wait and see how Ant-Man… Continue reading Binge-watch ‘Daredevil’ without fear

My current editor, Jaden Daly, wrote the following mini-bio of me for his website A Daly Dose Of Hoops, and I’m posting it here because it’s one of the coolest things anyone has done for me.
I’ll be forever thankful to him. Thank you, Jaden.
"Jonathan joined the Daly Dose Of Hoops staff in the fall of 2016, and will serve as the primary source of coverage for Wagner College and the Northeast Conference. In addition to his work on this site, he is also the editor-in-chief of his own website, The “J” Effect, as well as a columnist for TheGWW.com. His industry background is extensive, having served in the past as a breaking news intern at the Staten Island Advance and its website, SILive.com, and also as a sports intern at the Riverdale Press.
A 2016 graduate of Manhattan College, Jonathan holds a Bachelor of Arts degree in communications, with a concentration in journalism. During his time at the Riverdale institution, he wrote for Manhattan’s student newspaper; The Quadrangle, beginning as a staff writer before ultimately assuming the positions of senior writer, assistant editor; and ultimately, sports editor. His work for the Quadrangle earned him Manhattan’s Excellence in Journalism, Best Sports News Article, and Most Prolific awards, as well as nominations for eight similar awards in his four-year tenure. His in-depth profile on Steve Masiello, compiled in April 2016, still stands as one of the most comprehensive pieces written about the head coach since Masiello was hired by Manhattan in 2011."
Shovel Knight: REVIEW (PS4/Vita)
What Shovel-ieness Note: Reviewed on PS4 and Vita. “Shovel Knight” is hard. Hard to the point of frustration. But that’s a great thing. Its difficulty reminds of games of old. The comparisons to other game franchises made by other critics are accurate (e.g. Castlevania, Mario, Mega Man, Metroid…). It trusts the player to learn how… Continue reading Shovel Knight: REVIEW (PS4/Vita)
Upcoming Nerd Films Trailer Round-up
Last week was the week of all trailers. No joke. “Ant-Man,” “Star Wars: The Force Awakens,” “Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice,” “Fantastic Four” and “Jurassic World.” That’s quite a list. Some of these gave us first looks, more tease or a glimpse at plot. Star Wars provided fan service while Batman v Superman bothered… Continue reading Upcoming Nerd Films Trailer Round-up

Soul Sacrifice: Backlog Review
More Like Soul-less Sacrimony I had to stoop pretty low to describe Soul Sacrifice: I needed to use a made-up word (“sacrimony“) in my title from Urban Dictionary. Yeah… Soul Sacrifice isn’t a great, good or bad game. It’s kind of in the middle. It’s just okay. That’s it, there’s my review. What surprises me most is that it… Continue reading Soul Sacrifice: Backlog Review
Penultimate Tease-y Goodness “Wytches #5”- Review
Wytches #5 Image Story: Scott Snyder Art: JOCK I can’t believe it took the release of Wytches’s fifth issue for me to decide to finally catch up on the series. I’m sure glad I did, no matter how long it took me. Let me just say this: this book should have a warning sign… Continue reading Penultimate Tease-y Goodness “Wytches #5”- Review
Helluva Lot of Fun and Laughs: “Helldivers” Review
Helldivers isn’t the prettiest game on PS3 or PS4 and it looks smeared on Vita. Put graphics aside and you have yourself one of the best four player co-op games ever made. A key component of Helldivers is that friendly fire is always on, and the catch is there’s no setting to turn it off.… Continue reading Helluva Lot of Fun and Laughs: “Helldivers” Review
