Infinite Ammo Looks Back: Part Two: Movies, Television, Music, and Around the Net
Never has there been a more exciting time for geek culture in the media than 2011: this year we were given a ton of comic book movies, fun sci-fi and fantasy movies, big ideas in TV, good music, and insanity on the internet. MOVIES We started our year with a lot of questions: we were … Read more
Bad Movie Night: Surviving Asylum Picture’s Mockbusters: “Almighty Thor”, “Transmorphers”, and “200 mph”
After taking forever to see Almighty Thor (which I only heard about because of the movie’s release around the time of Marvel’s Thor) I researched the details to find that Asylum, the studio behind the movie, is famous for making these really shitty “mockbusters” that are released at the same time as the real blockbuster … Read more
Is Batman: Year One Worth Your Time? Infinite Ammo’s Review
I don’t really know how to feel about Batman: Year One. Of the DC animated features, this one has stayed closest to its source material, and is almost a panel by panel reconstruction of Frank Miller and David Mazzucchelli’s seminal Batman tale, and yet something is still off. Certain factors—the animation and the voice acting … Read more
New York Comic Con 2011 Wrap-Up – Awesome Booths, Epic Costumes, and a Serious Petition!
Now that this year’s New York Comic Con is over, I thought I’d do a summary of the floor itself (the parts of it I got to inbetween panels and snapping stock pics for IA). Why? It was incredibly different from previous NY Comic Cons and (to be honest) I took way more pictures than … Read more

NYCC Pregame – Queens Comic Con
There’s a good chance this one slipped right past you. Another Con? A week before NY Comic Con? In one of the boroughs that actually exists (i.e. not Staten Island)? Well, don’t let it get to you; this year’s Queens Comic Con was the very first one. It’s that new (and I’m talking it-took-place-in-one-room new). … Read more
Infinite Ammo Presents “Conventional Wisdom”
With New York Comic Con happening this month, we thought it would be a great idea to present Kenney Broadway’s Conventional Wisdom, a documentary that takes very personal look at Dragon Con and the folks who attend it. Never heard of Dragon Con? Need inspiration for a costume or maybe the bravery to wear one … Read more
SMH – Infinite Ammo Meta-Reviews “Real Steel” Before We’ve Actually Seen It
Real Steel is a science fiction movie starring Hugh Jackman. As an admirer of both Hugh Jackman and anything robot, I couldn’t wait to see it. More to the point, I couldn’t wait to write about it. Although this critique is lacking a bit in that I haven’t actually seen the movie, I have seen a … Read more
SMH – Fighting Games and Hollywood: It Sucks So ‘ard!
(Note: There are *Spoiler Alerts* in this article: to view them, highlight the blank area following the Spoiler Alert.) As a gamer, the idea of a live action movie based on a fighting game you like or even know of seems like a sweet idea. Then, somehow, it gets made and you are left scratching your head … Read more
Fu-Dunnit: A Review of Detective Dee and the Mystery of the Phantom Flame
You’ve probably seen the trailer or the commercial. An airborne deer gets a flying kick in the face that sends it spinning out of control. This promises the type of left field, over the top action that was so entertaining in the Evil Dead movies and Kung Fu Hustle. The image belongs to the film … Read more
