Night In The Woods Review
There is a character in Infinite Fall’s Night in the Woods who sits on a stoop and spits poetry at you, if you allow her to. Her name is Selmers, and at the start of each new day, she offers such high quality verses as: My heart is a dankness | But when I see you | I feel a thankness

Movie Review - Logan
Movie Review - Logan "Logan, you still have time." Regardless of size (too tall) or not being ridiculously costumed in yellow spandex, I knew at a very specific moment that Hugh Jackman was and is, our Wolverine. It came during my first ever viewing of 2000's X-Men at the theaters. And it wasn't during some barbaric slice'em and dice'em battle scene. It came from a quiet moment when Logan meets the young stowaway Rogue (Anna Paquin, True Blood), and she asks him, "Does it hurt?" while the camera pans up from his knuckles to his face. He quietly replies, "Every time." That subtle little moment told me that one of my favorite Marvel characters, was in good hands. Hugh brought not only ferocity to the role, but he also gave heart to a character with such a rough demeanor. And not once has Jackman ever let us down, even when the ship was collapsing all around him (X-Men: The Last Stand, X-Men Origins: Wolverine). If this last film truly is just that, then whoever they try to replace him with, has some mighty big claws to fill.
