Howard Reviews

SOUL December 27, 2020
I loved Soul. LOVED. IT. The mythos was fun, the music was amazing, and the story had more heart in it—more truth in it—than anything in recent memory. As an added bonus, if you like jazz, this movie has some amazing things to offer. It’s easily worth a Disney+ subscription. Easily. Yes, it has death, […]
Wonder Woman 1984 December 26, 2020
The up-front summary: I enjoyed Wonder Woman 1984 but I was disappointed. I don’t regret signing up for HBOMax¹, because #WW84 was worth the $15 (cheaper and safer than going to the theater) but I really do wish the film had been… y’know… better. The good: there were lots of fun moments in the film, […]
TENET December 19, 2020
TENET is one of those films like THE SIXTH SENSE in which any review of the film must dance around the fact that it’s very, very difficult to say much about it—especially in any sort of critical examination—without spoiling something. So let me just say this before saying anything else: I enjoyed it. I really […]
Let’s review some movies December 19, 2020
It’s been a while, I know. I haven’t been to the theater since February, and I suppose I could describe my spring, summer, and fall to you, but all three of them were mightily 2020’d, so let’s just give that a miss. Will I make it back to a movie theater anytime soon? I doubt […]
Frozen II December 27, 2019
I don’t think Frozen II is going to get sing-along screenings, but I’m okay with that. To my mind, if there’s a weakness¹ with Frozen, it’s that one of the songs was so iconic, so memorable, and so infectious it unfairly raised the bar on the rest of the franchise. Reset that bar, and Frozen […]

Where To Find Me December 18, 2022
The late 2022 Twitter fiascochuro¹ necessitated the creation of a socials post detailing where you might find me on the various social media platforms. Here we go! howardtayler.comschlockmercenary.comtwitch.tv/howardtayler post.news/howardtaylertumblr.com/howardtaylertwitter.com/howardtaylerdice.camp/@howardtayleryoutube.com/howardtaylerinstagram.com/howardvtayler patreon.com/schlockmercenary kickstarter.com/profile/howardtayler These were sorted in order of URL length, rather than in order of preference, or priority, or anything like that. ——¹ I totally made […]
A Little Immortality: The Kickstarter! October 19, 2022
We’ve launched the Kickstarter for A Little Immortality: Schlock Mercenary Book 17, and it has already funded. Also, it has already blown past all but one of our original stretch goals, including one that gives everybody (not just backers—everybody) a free desktop wallpaper. Our plan was to launch it *quietly* on Tuesday, and then announce […]
