Talkie Tuesday: Black Widow

 

"Your pain only makes you stronger.


Hello everyone!

Week two of our Marvel catch-up is here and we're back on the grind, but this time it's at least with a character that I've known and loved since pretty much the beginning of MCU.

Listen, I love me Peter Parker, too, but ... maybe not this particular one.

Black Widow, however, was one of those I always wanted more information about.

She was our window into SHIELD besides Coulson, and she was a total badass who managed to keep up with gods and super-soldiers just by being spectacularly trained, skilled and disciplined.

And yes, it helps that Scarlett Johansson pretty much NAILED the role once she was cast.

But having said all that - I'll say this movie suffers. A lot. And it suffers mainly from the incredibly ridiculous decision from the higher-ups, who didn't include this one in the chronological lineup of the Infinity Saga.

Before I get too far into that, though, let's just figure out what's what, shall we? Black Widow, enter, stage right!

Talkie Tuesday: Avengers Endgame

"Avengers ... assemble."


Hello everyone!

Well, against all odds, I finally made it.

Not that it didn't take me freaking FOREVER.

The thing that happened this time was that I watched three or so Marvel movies in a row and then decided I needed to take a break - then the break turned out to be longer than expected because I just couldn't seem to find the time.

Three hours is a bit much and you need to actually plan to ensure you can get that in one go!

But I did it, and it's all under the belt now. FINALLY.

Of course it's late in comparison to when most people've seen this movie, but at this point it's not something I even worry about anymore.

I'm always late to something or other haha.

Avengers: Endgame was just the current in a long list of my lateness!

Talkie Tuesda: Avengers Infinity War

"We're in the endgame now ..."


Hello everyone!

Back with a movie blog and believe it or not I'm typing this one up at 6 am.

Why?

Because summer, that's why.

Summer has FINALLY hit the country but that means that temperatures are all over the place, aka super high and then some, which also means I either have to turn the AC on if I don't want to melt, or I simply don't go on the computer except early in the morning and then after the sun dips again late afternoon.

Unless something happens that ABSOLUTELY needs my presence online, I think I'll stick with not going online at all.

That being said, it IS time for a movie review, and why not continue along in the Marvel vein?

Heard about a Gauntlet running around? Let's look at Infinity War and see how the Avengers do.

Talkie Tuesday: Avengers - Age of Ultron

"Sokovia is going for a ride ..."

Hello everyone!

So, first off, let me just say that I had originally planned on writing about a different movie in this week's movie blog post, because I'm sort of sticking to a schedule, or list shall we say, which I made while I was watching them and such, but my plans went completely out of the window this weekend as I sat down to watch one of the most anticipated movies of 2015, I believe. 

 Well, at least where Marvel is concerned.

I am absolutely talking about the new Avengers movie which brings us to the (almost) conclusion of Phase Two in the Marvel Cinematic Universe (actually, Ant-Man does that, but I'm still waiting to watch it, so).

I will also admit to being a bit of a dork when it comes to these things, seeing as I've been a Marvel fan for a while now, and can we just say YAY on the fact that Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D. is coming back next week?!
