Special: Best of March 2017

Best Theatrical Film:

Logan

My fiance's choices largely dominated what I got to see in March, and sorry people going crazy over Beauty And The Beast... It just wasn't that great. The other choice for this spot was CHiPs which was better than expected but nowhere near as good as Logan was, which was the perfect swan song for Hugh Jackman's Wolverine.

Best Rental Film:

Moana

Fear not Disneyphiles, I won't shut out the company completely since Moana is by far the best film to hit movie rental shelves last month. Sing was another great Family option, if you're looking for something more adult I'd suggest the horror Incarnate or one of the many Oscar films to hit the shelves (Fences, Jackie, Passengers) along with a slew of big budget films that came out around Christmas that I mostly missed (Why Him?, Fantastic Beasts, Assasin's Creed).

Best album:

Raekwon - The Wild

Raekwon’s stamp on rap comes from his one-of-a-kind writing style, and his pen is still sharp on The Wild, more than 20 years into his career. His novelist-like attention to detail and his linguistic mastery are still one of a kind.

Best Graphic Novel:

Batgirl, Vol. 1: Beyond Burnside (Rebirth), by Hope Larson and Rafael Albuquerque

Batgirl’s reinvention as a younger, hipper hero began prior to DC’s latest reboot, and writer Hope Larson continues that here in a volume that’s simultaneously a good starting point for new readers and a continuation of the things that have been working so well for the character over the last few years. As the title implies, she’s stepping out of Gotham’s trendy Burnside neighborhood to train with some of the world’s greatest fighters in the far east. Of course, she finds enemies all along the way.

Best Video Game:

MLB: The Show 2017 (PS4)
