Though not as high as expected of the first MCU film, 2008’s Iron Man brought something new to the superhero genre. Instead of someone trying to hide their superhero identity, Tony Stark exudes with personality and flare in his armor. His bombastic way of doing things has a wide contrast to the dark and gritty realistic Batman Begins and The Dark Knight. Iron Man is … Continue reading 14. Iron Man
I don’t think anybody can argue that this isn’t a good film. Every scene or line has at the least one video game reference and it’s just fun watching and pointing those out. This film has more than just video game references though, it has a story that has a heart. Its obvious that this video game aspect of this movie has been a slight … Continue reading 15.

Scott Pilgrim Vs The World was my first taste of Edgar Wright‘s style and the moment I saw it I fell in love. I’ve seen this movie 86 times now and it never gets old. The music, the characters, the action set pieces, the jokes, the editing, all of this movie is amazing. Everytime I watch this movie I catch a new joke or a … Continue reading 16.

This film is the first of three films directed by Phil Lord and Chris Miller, and I love it. When the Lego Movie was announced, I had watched the trailer for it 78 times back to back. Every frame of the movie is gorgeous and its at times so well done that I was fooled into thinking is was stop-motion. The Lego Movie was a … Continue reading 17. The Lego Movie
This is the first of a few Marvel films on my list, and don’t let its position on this list fool you. Ant-Man and The Wasp are perhaps my personal favorite heros. Paul Rudd will always be Ant-Man and is quite literally the best choice to play the part. Don’t even get me started on Evangeline Lilly as The Wasp (She absolutely kills it!). Though … Continue reading 18. Ant-Man and The Wasp
Sword Art Online will always have a sweet spot in my heart, and when I heard a movie was announced I was more than excited to watch it in theaters. I was expecting a fun VR adventure when I sat down to watch the film but instead I was given two things, an amazing AR adventure with my two favorite characters and an existential crisis. … Continue reading 19.

Starting off the list for the #20MovieChallenge is the 2010 film Tron Legacy. Only watching the first film on a psp of all things, I never cared much for the world of Tron. It wasn’t until Tron Legacy that my interest peaked, giving me a new found love for the world. Everything from the action, the set design, the writing, and the music is just … Continue reading 20.

Future journalists of Lamar University were delighted by a visit of the C-SPAN bus giving students an opportunity to learn about what they do for a living and how the operation is carried out. The bus was the equivalent of a military recruiting table where they tell you highlights of the job, stories about people the work with, and give you a small pamphlet. To … Continue reading C-SPAN bus makes a stop for Lamar University

I’ve been working with audio/video production for four years and I make kinetic typography videos on my YouTube channel. I enjoy watching movies, playing games and writing columns for the University … Continue reading About Me
