Can you spot the influences while I'm previewing? @starwars @StarTrek @NetflixGeeked @StarTrekOnPPlus+

Currently pre-screening #YoungSherlock from #AmazonPrimeVideo ... if you've ever considered yourself an aficionado of geek-culture, then Sherlock Holmes should have been your first superhero! Watch for the upcoming review when I can say more!

Mucking around with Fallout 4. finished the story multiple times. Now I'm just going back to find hidden quests and trying to find as many Power Armour suits as I can! Behold the fruits of my labour. The green suit is an X-02 suit, painted fully green which pumps up my Luck stat. (Such a nerd.)

After multiple interviews, visits, discussions about having awesome mothers, and even a mutual appreciation of some James T. Kirk Kentucky Bourbon, it behooves me to wish Eugene Roddenberry a happy birthday from all corners of the Federation!

The final episode of @Fallout S2 was definitely worth it! Fantastic fight sequence and stay tuned to the credit scenes - it was EXACTLY what I was hoping would happen! A show for the true and new fans! @PrimeVideoCA

I'd see this show. Looks like they've got people who know what they're talking about!

I love this new rendition of Dracula from Luc Besson! Tragic and poignant, Dracula is the character in dire need of salvation! Read my review today! www.original-cin.ca/posts/2026/2...

Tonight's viewing: A Mighty Wind. We'll miss you, Catherine O'Hara.

Thanks Amazon Prime Video and The TARO Group for a fun evening! Consider us PRIMED for more entertainment! Original-Cin.ca

Yeah ... my kid bullies me into smoking cheese for her so that she can have a smoked grilled cheese sandwich. When you look up "indulgent parent" you'll see my picture.

My take on @MarvelStudios #WonderMan ... #BenKingsley is definitely the unsung hero but more of a well-needed sidekick. Read more here: www.original-cin.ca/posts/2026/1...

Anyone else feeling a bit tense, dreading what type of dementia-riddled calamity is going to come out of Davos, now that the Great Pumpkin has landed?

Well, it's finally here! johnkirkwriter.com

My interviews at the Toronto Premiere of Star Trek: Starfleet Academy. #RobertPicardo #TeamKarim #SandroRosta #StarTrek www.original-cin.ca/posts/2026/1...

Apparently I'm charming enough to attend a Star Trek premiere post-screening reception. Who knew? Thanks for the invitation, Paramount+ CA. I suppose you can't have a Star Trek event without Captain Kirk! Watch for the forthcoming interviews. Original-CIN.ca

I have Dracula, Wonder Man, Fallout and Star Trek all on the go tonight. (Wait for the interviews!) It's the second week of January. Not a bad start for geek journalism. #Disney+ CA #Paramount+ #GameTheoryFilms

Here's my problem: On Wednesday night, I've been invited to attend the Toronto red carpet premiere of Star Trek: Starfleet Academy. When there's a strong fan element to the event, I NEVER know how much nerd flair is enough.

So a descriptor I used in my review of Starfleet Academy was "Beverly Hills, 90210 in space" got picked up by another outlet! Their take was "haters are describing this show as Beverly Hills, 90210". I've become a hater? When did I become a hater? My God, Bones ... what have I done?

My review of @startrek.bsky.social Starfleet Academy. Beautiful sets. www.original-cin.ca/posts/2026/1...

Hey Kids! Movies! Films the Original-CIN staff are looking forward fo in the new year! Enjoy! www.original-cin.ca/posts/2025/1...

This is the way I like to imagine myself, heading into the new year: in the command chair, course charted, objectives to reach. Not a Five-Year mission though. It's another 50. Wouldn't have it any other way. #LLAP to all my friends. #HappyNewYear @StarTrek (Thx @WilliamShatner)

The Riders of Rohan (plus one) ride again at #StormcrowManor!

The last interview before the close of the year, I chat with Daisy Ridley about her role as Ava in We Bury The Dead. Enjoy! www.original-cin.ca/posts/2025/1...

Jack Black is never a miss, and he's even a better ensemble member than a giant anaconda. Read my review of #Anaconda! www.original-cin.ca/posts/2025/1...

A Christmas Tradition that was in dire danger of not being fulfilled this year! The Trekmas Tree is up again! @startrek.bsky.social

I get that you might not know the game, but if you like sci-fi/fantasy and aren't watching #Fallout then you have to change your priorities. Hey ... read my review! It might help. www.original-cin.ca/posts/2025/1...

Just sharing a fond signed memory of an interview from a ways back. Thanks, #KateeSackhoff.

A powerfully poignant film that needs to be appreciated more than paramedics are. Code 3 streams tomorrow - make sure you see it. Read my review. www.original-cin.ca/posts/2025/1...

The remnants of 20th century popculture icons are slowly but surely disappearing. Farewell, B-b-b-b-uck.

Fallout Season Two. The only thing more fun than playing the game is watching the game stories come to life! #Fallout Read my review! www.original-cin.ca/posts/2025/1...

Some summer delight for your frosty December! My article on Lockheed and Kitty Pryde (every 1980s teen comic crush) featured on the cover of #BackIssue 168, shipping in July. Put your pre-orders in! TwoMorrows Publishing Seriously - what a great cover.

God, I miss the rampant availability of the mind-numbing optimism of late 1980's pop music. I swear this was a cultural feature of the decade that allowed Gen-X to simply press on.

Having a chat with #DaisyRidley about her latest film, #WeBurytheDead is definitely a great way to spend a wintery afternoon! Watch for the interview and review coming soon!

Had to be done.

Remembering roots. That's a value. I respect this American politician more than any other in America's history.

A quirky little comedy, One More Shot was an entertaining laugh that you might enjoy! I especially loved seeing #EmilyBrowning in a funny role! Read my review! www.original-cin.ca/posts/2025/1...

#WeBurytheDead ... watch for my upcoming review AND interview with #DaisyRidley!

Hot off the press! My chat with the cast AND author of the series Percy Jackson & the Olympians S2! #Disney+ www.original-cin.ca/posts/2025/1...

Well, look what the preview fairy sent me.

Percy Jackson & the Olympians Season 2 - just a rinse and repeat of the excellent first season! Hey, if it ain't broken, don't fix it! @disneyplusuk.bsky.social #DisneyCA My review: www.original-cin.ca/posts/2025/1...

Comic covers from the 70s that rate 9.6 or higher (per BI fans) Day 2: another two wraparound covers... All-New Collectors Edition #C-55 illustrated by Mike Grell (released 12/13/1977) All-New Collectors Edition #C-56 illustrated by Neal Adams (layout/design by Joe Kubert) (released 1/31/1978)

Well ... This was a different distraction during lunchtime today! Got the author Rick Riordan as well! #percyjacksonandtheolympians Disney+ CA Watch for the upcoming interview piece!

Role-Playing ... the solution to overcoming life's challenges in the 1980s. I cover #StrangerThings Season Five, streaming on #Netflix now. Read below. www.original-cin.ca/posts/2025/1...

"Cry havoc, and let slip the dogs of war!" As General Chang said, Shakespeare is best enjoyed in the original Klingon. Christopher Plummer has found his way into the GeekDen! #EXO-6 #StarTrek

Here's the thing about #strangerthings ... you knowthat if they include #JamieCampbell in the preview/promo stuff, he's important in this season, right? Vecna rules, right?

It's the references back to Hopper's daughter, Sara, who fought cancer and lost that really endear him to me. Out of all the great characters in this story, it's Jim Hopper who makes this show for me. #strangerthings #DavidHarbour

Looks like I get to interview the leading cast of #percyjacksonandtheolympians next week.

This guy has been my favourite comic superhero since I was five. He gets his own spot in the geekden! #judgedredd
