Thanos' Plan Explained
Hopefully, by now, everyone has seen Avengers Infinity War and is ready for Avengers Endgame to be released in April of this year. This will contain spoilers so if you haven't seen Infinity War or are caught up on your Marvel Studios movies, now is the time to turn back. Ok you have been warned what happens after this sentence is your fault. Anyways, we were left with a lot of burning questions after Infinity War. How will our heroes bring everyone back? Why did Star Lord do that? Why did Doctor Strange do that? Why didn't Thor aim for the head? Well that one is easy, to taunt Thanos while he died. Besides these questions and many, many more there is one that I think a lot of people miss. Why did Thanos wait this long and how did he do this with such swiftness? As you should know Thanos was introduced in the first Avengers movie. Thanos also appeared in Guardians Of The Galaxy. So why did he wait? Especially since he took 5 stones in a mere day virtually unchallenged. To sell more movies? Probably. However it is much more complex than that and really concretes how brilliant Marvel Studios is. So I will explain

'Avengers Endgame' Theory: Overlooked Details
So we are, less than two months away from the biggest movie of 2019, Avengers Endgame. The second part to last year's Avengers Infinity War and the final dramatic conclusion to Phase Three of the Marvel Cinematic Universe. Hopefully, you are caught up in MCU movies up to this point, if not, this will have spoilers for multiple movies. I have seen Infinity War probably 20 times at this point because it really is one of the best movies out there and how many simultaneous stories that unravel it makes the 2 hour and 45 minutes thrill-ride feel like it is 2 minutes and 45 seconds. Also, I can attest to the fact that you never realize how important the older movies are until you watch Infinity War then watch the others. I will touch on that during this nerd out. Anyways, let's get into my theory and details that get missed easily if you aren't really paying attention. This is just what I think will be crucial, this is not anything confirmed I am just going over what I have noticed in all the MCU movies and how I believe our heroes will undo the snap. If you want to go into Avengers Endgame clean slated I don't want to ruin anyone's movie experience should my theory prove true. You have been warned and anything that happens from here is your fault.

'Kill Bill Vol. 1' (2003) Review
Before you write to me angrily saying I gave this film way too low of a score, just let me explain my reasoning for the score. Quentin Tarantino is considered a masterful director and one of the best of our time. When I sat down to watch this film I had already heard loads of people praise this movie for its action scenes and linear storytelling. When I finished this movie, if I'm being honest, I was genuinely disappointed in what I watched. Yes, it was well done, the filming was extremely well done with a great assortment of shots and transitions that as a film student who has studied shot composition and filming techniques, his filming seemed quite impressive. But my big problem with this film is not the filming, it's not the actors, it's everything he did in the post/editing phase of the film.

Why Critics Are Wrong About 'Venom'
Since its release last year in November, Venom has been a movie surrounded with debates on how good it really is. Even after the death by firing squad that the anti-heroes first solo outing underwent by critics; the movie still somehow managed to rake in hundreds of millions of dollars in the box office. Fans refused to make too much out of the mediocre reviews and decided to watch the movie and decide for themselves how good it really was. I myself took the same approach by giving it a chance before paying any mind to the unfair ratings that have been bestowed upon the public in the films name. Now, by no means is this title the best superhero film ever made. There are quite a few flaws that should most certainly be addressed when Sony begins production on the sequel, and thanks to the 800 plus million dollars that the film has gained (making it the most profitable superhero origins film of all time) a sequel title has already been confirmed. By now you have probably noticed the great divide in opinion between fans and critics regarding Venom's ratings. How exactly does a film that was given a meager 29 percent on rotten tomatoes, turn up to be one of the most profitable projects of 2018? That question is exactly what we will be investigating in this article. Something within this equation is doing very little to add up, in fact, the only thing that seems to be adding up is the frustration fans are having with these unreasonable, parasites we call critics. So hold on to your symbiotes because we'll be getting into the good, the bad, the beautiful, and the brutally ugly portions that factor into what was an over-all great flick. Although, I must warn you there will be massive spoilers awaiting ahead. So, if you have yet to see Venom than you may want to refrain from reading on (you have been warned).

'A Fish Story' Helps the Bereaved Heal the Pain in Pound Ridge
The death of Sam Roberts’ father in 1985 left the Pound Ridge resident an angry young man. On the other hand, it wasn’t long before he started to channel his grief, and a screenplay soon emerged. Reaching the tail end of the story meant a long journey against the current, though, and the film didn't make it into the can until 2013. Successes in a number of film festivals followed, and A Fish Story just secured a distributor. So it can now be found on Netflix and in 3,000 Walmart stores. Of course, having a Hollywood star attached to the credits would certainly make mass consumption much easier. But Roberts has come to realize that the healing nature of the film might not have come across as easily with that type of familiarity.
