Ruby Gillman Teenage Kraken
The minute I saw the trailer for this movie I knew that I wanted to see it. It seemed cute and I firmly believe that coming of age stories for young women are few and far between and I was eager to see another one. I know that this film didn’t get much attention at the box office but I don’t think that had anything to do with actual film quality at all.

From Hero To Villain: Loki's Redemption In The MCU
Loki in the Marvel Cinematic Universe Fans of the MCU for the past 14 years have been treated to the delightful depiction of the Norse God Of Mischief, Loki of Asgard. To say that Tom Hiddleston did a phenomenal job bringing Loki to life is an understatement. Not only has Loki been an intriguing character and entertaining to watch, but Hiddleston took ownership of the role in a way that makes him as irreplaceable as other MCU talents such as RDJ, Chris Evans, and the late Chadwick Boseman.

Last time, I wrote about how Tim Robinson’s sketch comedy series, I Think You Should Leave is deeper than you think because of its unique brand of absurdist humor and cringe metacommentary. There is no denying that the show excels in illustrating the awkwardness and intricacies of social situations. However, it unexpectedly resonates strongly with many people on the autism spectrum.
