Posted on May 17, 2022 by Robert Lockard, the Deja Reviewer

I know I already talked about Flight of the Navigator last week, but there’s just so much more to say about it. After all, it has one of the best science fiction premises I’ve ever seen put to film. What … Continue reading →

Flight of the Navigator Predicted Modern Discourse in a Few Lines

Posted on May 10, 2022 by Robert Lockard, the Deja Reviewer

Flight of the Navigator is a good movie that inadvertently predicted the contradictory depths of the way some people speak these days. There seems to be a lot of confusion on topics that have never really been up for debate. … Continue reading →

A Significant Change in My Personal Life

Posted on May 3, 2022 by Robert Lockard, the Deja Reviewer

Normally I don’t talk about my day job. It’s ironic that the work I do publicly tends to be something I try to keep private. I’ve worked at the same company for a little more than 12 years. That stability … Continue reading →

Posted on April 26, 2022 by Robert Lockard, the Deja Reviewer

Uninvited has a hauntingly beautiful melody and terribly lame lyrics. So I rewrote them to make them mean much more than unrequited love. Continue reading →

Battle of the Message Movies: Turning Red vs. Teen Wolf

Posted on April 12, 2022 by Robert Lockard, the Deja Reviewer

It’s funny. When I first heard about Turning Red a few weeks ago, I thought it was going to be one of Pixar’s lesser films. Like Brave or Soul. Little did I know that it would turn out to be … Continue reading →

Let’s Explore the Symmetry of Escape from New York

Posted on April 5, 2022 by Robert Lockard, the Deja Reviewer

This is getting scary. In the Tron Cinematic Chiasmus, I noted that it wasn’t my idea to analyze that movie. But once I did, I couldn’t deny it worked perfectly as a chiasmus. I have to give all the credit … Continue reading →

Is My Good Opinion, Once Lost, Lost Forever?

Posted on March 29, 2022 by Robert Lockard, the Deja Reviewer

Get with the Program! Tron Is a Symmetrical Film

Posted on March 22, 2022 by Robert Lockard, the Deja Reviewer

Cinematic Chiasmus is no longer my sole domain. I’ve had help from my wonderful readers to complete my Spider-Man chiasmus and to see the chiasmus of Alien and Alien3. In those cases, I had abandoned my Spider-Man chiasmus, and I … Continue reading →

Do Rotten Sequels Spoil Great Previous Films?

Posted on March 15, 2022 by Robert Lockard, the Deja Reviewer

I recently rewatched 2006’s Casino Royale. I hadn’t seen it in many years, and I really liked returning to it. It feels so simple and quaint in some ways. And yet something was nagging at my mind the whole time … Continue reading →
