'Homecoming' Contains The Greatest Heroic Moment In Spider-Man's Movie History
Isn’t 2017 turning out to be a stellar year for comic book movies? Both Wonder Woman and Logan have already provided powerful scenes, such as Diana’s empowering, storming of No Man's Land or Logan's overwhelmingly sad death, which are so momentous that they will surely be revered for years to come. And although Spider-Man: Homecoming can’t quite match those two films in terms of raw power, Jon Watts' superheroic debut still manages to feature a standout scene in its final act that fans will surely be talking about for years to come.

Reed Alexander's Review of "Popcorn (1991)."
Yeah, this was a fun movie. It was DUMB. I mean D. U. M. B. It was hammy as all hell and just plain silly as fuck. But I was just recently talking about the movie "Leprechaun" with some friends, and as I explained... that's kinda the fucking point! This is good-bad done right. You got the sense that the people making this movie had a lot of fun. It shown through with each scene and a lot of their dialogue. The plot itself was even kinda meta and also a lot of fun. I mean, a slasher at a horror grind house triple feature? C'mon, they knew this was going to be fun.

Why Steve & Diana's Chat About Sex Is A Crucial Scene In 'Wonder Woman'
Raking in the cash and inspiring kids and women alike, Wonder Woman is a smash hit. This success is due not only to its well-structured story and the perfect cast but also because of its fresh perspective. In particular, fans have found the optimism that’s borne through her fight with Ares to be a welcome light in the pervading grimness of the #DCEU. Yet moviegoers have also responded to how empowering the film is; the No Man’s Land assault is already becoming a pivotal moment in superhero movie history, but the film also contains another, less-discussed scene that’s just as key to understanding the ethos of Wonder Woman.

Why Ares Is The Perfect Villain For 'Wonder Woman'
Say what you will about the burgeoning DCEU, but each installment has attempted to tackle mature and meaty themes through their respective villains. For instance, Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice examined xenophobia through Lex Luthor’s (Jesse Eisenberg) hatred of Superman. Man of Steel's General Zod (Michael Shannon) investigated the nature of power and extremism, and Wonder Woman does something similar with its own antagonist. Even though the film's depiction of Ares, the God of War, has divided fans somewhat, the choice to pit #GalGadot’s Diana against him was a brilliant one. In my opinion, the way this villain is handled is one of Wonder Woman's main strengths.

'Spider-Man: Homecoming' - Tom Holland Reveals That He Modeled His Peter Parker On Another Teen Movie Icon
Like a streak of light, Spider-Man: Homecoming’s release date is fast approaching, and anticipation is running at fever pitch. Moviegoers can’t wait to see more of Tom Holland’s Spider-Man in action, even though he’s the third incarnation of the wall-crawler in the last 15 years. Indeed, ever since his acclaimed debut in Captain America: Civil War, Holland and the minds at Marvel have paid tribute to — and borrowed from — the outings of previous Spider-Men. However in a recent interview, Holland also revealed that he was inspired by an unlikely character from a very famous movie series from the 1980s.

'Pirates of the Caribbean 5' Has A Saucy Little Easter Egg...About Mayonnaise?!
From under the cloud of Johnny Depp’s many controversies, Pirates of the Caribbean: Dead Men Tell No Tales has arrived to buckle swashes afresh and bring home the booty for Disney. In the new film we find Capn’ Jack Sparrow embarking on fresh misadventures as he attempts to outwit the cursed privateer, Armando Salazar (Javier Bardem) alongside several new characters. But while Dead Men Tell No Tales harbors some major plot developments, and also goes out of its way to set up some potential sequels it also contains several pretty left field — and clever — winks to the series' past as well.
