Nighthawk
First off, you have to call me Nighthawk. Hopefully you know the reference but definitely respect the moniker. (Its from Step Brothers, btw) I am your host to the North of the Cinemasters. Forged deep within the belly of a drunken volcano struck by lightning from a passing comet during the autumnal equinox, the Cinemasters were cast into existence to bring awesomeness to the realm of movie discussion to all who would gather to listen. I am the knowing things half of our namesake and I do my best to guard the sacred truths and trivia of all the movies I have watched through the years. I am a father to two righteous dudes, ages 5 and 7. When not siring them in the ways of Cinema I am absorbing as much film exposure and knowledge as I can so to bring you fine people my offerings of the written word. Ryan Reynolds is my North Star in all things filmtastic and I pledge to give you the finest commentary written and spoken I can Cine-muster.

The Accountant: A semi-comprehensive audit

Hey there Cinemaster fans, it’s your old pal Nighthawk aka Adam Peterson. It’s been a little while since I’ve labored over the written word when it comes to movies and I’d kind of like to get back into the habit of it all. I’d like to promise up front that I’ll do my best to be consistent in returning to this venue to reprise my thoughts regularly on the films …

3: Tangents Vol 3: A Tangent About Reboots and Remakes

“Exploring Farts, Movies, and More: Box Office Tangent with Ron Amos and Adam Peterson” Ron and Adam are the two hosts of the podcast Box Office Tangent. They started this podcast as a way to record their conversations about movies. In this episode, they welcome the audience back and exchange some humorous banter, comparing themselves to public radio hosts and Homer Simpson. They then explain that this is a podcast …

2: Tangents Vol 2: Guardians of the Galaxy 3 Chat

Hey there friends of the Cinemasters and welcome back to another intimate gathering of the Rental King and that man from the North. In this sophomore entry in the new spinoff of the Cinemasters podcast, Ron and Adam are going to do a little Guardians 3 chatting. Warning: there are some spoilers if you haven’t seen the flick yet. But these two will bounce around the Marvel universe while summing …

1: Box Office Tangents Vol 1 – 90’s Filmography Showdown: Hanks v. Sandler

It’s official! We’ve got a spinoff. Or maybe it’s a sequel. Couldn’t be a prequel, right? Whatever it is, the Cinemasters are here in a second format. No worries, we’re still all in on Cinemastering the Universe. This is just something a little extra we’re trying out. We’re keeping it tight on time and we’re having a good time. It’s one part old school bits we’ve strayed from and one …

In Your Eyes

For every time that I hear “WHAT? You haven’t seen _______??” with something that is well known in the main stream world of movies, there’s all kinds of flicks that come my way through one means or another that aren’t on anyone’s radar. This is one of those movies that came my way via a very special friend of mine. I picked it up a while ago on that recommendation …

Infinite

I suppose re-introductions might be in order. I’m not particularly sure how the rules of etiquette dictate this situation, per se. It’s been a good while since I’ve done this but I’m pretty sure it’s like riding a bike in the fact that one of us might need a helmet. Around these parts they call me “Nighthawk”. Sure, it’s a badass name that makes it sound like maybe I fight …

The King of Staten Island

It’s been right at about 3 months since I’ve actually been to the theater. It was sometime in mid March when I saw “The Invisible Man”. If I was a more tedious person I might go look up the actual date but I’m comfortable estimating. I’m pretty sure in recent years that its the longest I’ve gone without a trip to the multiplex for something. Being in the theater feels …

The Streaming Boonies

So maybe I’m a glutton for my own punishment tonight but this is a topic I’ve been meaning to write about for a little while now. I’ve actually started this topic once or twice but hadn’t seen it through to the end. Right now we are overwhelmed with streaming services and it seems like a new one pops up every other day. Sure, there’s the main stage performers like Netflix …

Staff Picks 6/1

Well this is a little overdue but as many have said, better late than never. So we’re back again with another dose of movies you might be interested in checking out since now I’m pretty sure people don’t want to leave their homes because everything everywhere is just on fire and upside down. And in times like that its always a great idea to stay in, stay safe and watch …

Staff Picks 5/16

Hopefully this week’s picks finds you doing well given the relatively insane nature of the world we still find ourselves in at this time. This week we did have a brief glimmer of cinematic hope in the form of a sleuthy great dane with a penchant for devouring wildly disproportionate sandwiches while unmasking would be criminals. That’s right, I’m talking about “Scoob!” I’m not going to touch that one here …
