Thoughts I Had During 'Age of Ultron'
This movie is not good. It’s one of the weakest ones in the Marvel Cinematic Universe. It’s been some time since I’ve watched it, so I had to carefully document my thoughts while re-watching it after a few years. It’s just as bad as I remember, but don’t worry, there’s some good in it. Hopefully you can find some nuggets of wisdom in here. These are the thoughts that went through my head during this movie.

5 Marvel Women Who NEED Their Own Movie or Netflix Series
I am straight, white, cis dude and even I am getting fatigued by the seemingly endless procession of super hero movies led by straight, white, cis dudes (no matter how good some may be). The women of Marvel are overflowing with potential yet are endlessly stuck in the role of male-hero-supporter. This dynamic stifles the potential of these awesome characters. Marvel must free them from the shackles that bind them to the exploits of the men and let them lead their own stories.

Why Captain America Is in the Wrong
As an avid Marvel fan I have my favorite characters, just as anyone does, and as a woman, I can admit that Captain America is very dreamy (Thank you, Chris Evans). But after seeing Civil War, I can honestly say that the Captain is, well I don't want to get called out for my language, so I will say that he is not a swell guy.

The Acoustics in My Head Are Really Lovely
This delightful and deftly-written new digital series offers a comedic glimpse into the occult in which the talents of Janet Varney, the show's creator, co-writer (with freelance writer and editor Brandon R. Reynolds), and producer, are on full display. In Fortune Rookie, Varney portrays an alternate-universe version of herself: a somewhat self-obsessed and insensitive but ultimately well-meaning actress who abandons her career to become a fortune teller.

Villains I’d Still Like to See in Marvel’s Netflix Shows
With rumours that Disney is set to establish their own streaming service that will avoid mature content, it is uncertain how long Marvel’s Netflix shows will continue for. Nonetheless, if this corner of superhero television is heading to its end there are still a number of villains I’d like to see show up before these series are finished.

'Halloween' (2018)
The wait is over Halloween fans. From talks of a new movie back in 2015 to Dimension Films losing production rights, Blumhouse, the studio that brought you the critically acclaimed films Insidious, GetOut, and the successful Conjuring films, has obtained the rights to the franchise. Even better, the new film will simply be titled Halloween. No more cliche titles. Goodbye Rob Zombie films that tried too hard to do the franchise justice and failed horribly with a bad sequel.

'Clueless' - Review
Here is a situation where I can almost guarantee you've been in before. Imagine this, you are hanging out with one of your friends and they bring up one of their favorite movies which you have never seen before. The classic, "What?! You've never seen that!" response comes next and sometimes it's followed up by the "Okay, we're watching this right now!" phrase. A couple of years ago, this situation happened to me. A friend and I were having a Disney movie night full of classics like The Lion King, A Goofy Movie and...Clueless?

10 of the 21st Century’s Biggest Box-Office Bombs
Amid reports in August, The Oscars announced a new category of ‘Best Popular Film’ to its line-up of honors for the 91st Academy Awards. The response to the announcement was a loud uproar of negativity suggesting that the new category is pandering to mainstream demands and tarnishing the purpose of the ‘Best Picture’ Category itself. Earlier this month the Academy postponed the initiation of the ‘Popular Film’ category into the Oscar ceremony, and the future of this award remains indefinite.
