Marvel, Supernatural, Star Trek, and everything fandom-related in between. If it's worth reading, watching, or listening to — I'm on it, and telling you about it.
I've been at Startefacts since the actual beginning back in 2022.
One of my early assignments was covering CinemaCon in Las Vegas, where I sat in a dark hall geeking out over Doctor Strange footage and thought: God, this is a dream job for me.
Well, turns out — not THE dream job, per se. Entertainment journalism is hard, harder than ever in 2026, with AI threatening your integrity and your work ethic at every turn. But hey: I still try. I love what I do, and I love writing about the MCU, however shitty their movies have gotten over the last few years. I'm still in my chair in a movie theater when a new Nolan movie comes out, or a Guy Ritchie movie, or frankly any Statham movie.
What I cover: the MCU and superhero cinema, long-running genre TV (Supernatural, Star Trek, and their fandoms), fan culture and how it shapes what gets made, action filmmaking and the directors who take it seriously.
How I work: I watch the thing before I write about it — the whole thing, not the recap. I rewatch scenes when my memory isn't reliable, which is often. I check release dates, credits, production history, and source material against primary sources — press notes, the books, the people who made it — not the top-ranking aggregator. If I got something wrong, I fix it and say so in the piece.
Where else to find me:Twitter/X — tips, corrections, and complaints about my Statham opinions all welcome.
Kutner's death on House explained: why season 5 killed him with zero warning — the real reason wasn't in the script
April 6, 2009. A completely normal Monday episode of House called, with staggering nerve, "Simple Explanation." Thirteen and Foreman swing by Lawrence Kutner's apartment because he's late for work, and find him dead by suicide.
Supernatural filler episodes you can skip: trim these and save a full day of the 327-episode marathon
Let's do the math that Netflix autoplay doesn't want you to do. Supernatural ran 15 seasons and 327 episodes, at roughly 42 minutes apiece. That is about 229 hours, or nine and a half days of your one wild and precious life spent watching two beautiful men die and un-die in flannel.
The A24 SCP Foundation V/H/S movie backlash, explained: the studio bought "worldwide rights" to something no one can own
There is something deeply, cosmically funny about a studio announcing it has secured exclusive rights to a fictional universe whose entire premise is "some things cannot be contained." A24, the tastemaker factory that turned liminal hallways into a nearly $400 million hit with Backrooms, boarded V/H/S: SCP on Friday.
Emmy Awards 2026 predictions: Mariska Hargitay hosts as the first woman in 15 years — and she's already won twice this month
Tonight's the night, and for once I'm not dreading the monologue. The 78th Emmys go down at the Peacock Theater, and the person holding the microphone is not a stand-up doing contractually obligated jokes about streaming.

What happened to Nate on Ted Lasso? Even the actor answers season 4 questions with a smirk
Five episodes into Ted Lasso season 4, and there is a Nate Shelley–shaped hole in the middle of AFC Richmond. No appearance. No mention. Not even a name-drop over biscuits.
