@HiTopFilms @AhoyBricks So in other words: Born Again S2 initially feels lacking in soul but evolves into a love letter to the original series and a new beast entirely, setting the course for a fresh era.





Born Again S2 starts off feeling very much like the "solid" episodes of Born Again. Which, to me, lacked all the soul that made the Netflix show so special. It's doing so much leg work to de-sterilize the world, add back authentic grit and texture to the supporting characters that were purely exposition machines in S1, so certain moments and beats feel "off". The first few episodes had me scared that this series would continue to feel like damage control for bad boardroom choices. But... Once you hit the mid point, it completely evolves and morphs into, not just a love letter (blatant apology) to the original series (you guys won't believe me until you see it), but a new beast entirely. Setting the course for a completely new era that takes the best of old, while establishing a fresh path. Allowing the world and the characters to not just be stale imitations with too many limitations, but to be, truly, "Born Again". The back half had me smiling ear to ear. Expect a vague mostly non-spoiler video sometime in April.








New look at ‘SPIDER-MAN: BRAND NEW DAY’ In theaters July 31.



It's so nice to see Spider-Man swinging around NYC skyscrapers for the first time since 2014, but some tweets would have you believe this is the first time they've ever seen a Spidey flick. This was the visual standard for 14 years.
