Ant-man and The Wasp(2018)


  For me,one of the MCU films that stands out and is genuinely funny is the first Ant-man. So when I heard about the sequel I was happy,Ant-man didn't try to be a masterpiece or anything it was just a relatable superhero movie that had very cool characters and a wannabe Obadiah Stane villain.

  I like checking out reviews of movies before I see them and also like getting in depth analysis from my favorite youtubers like Jeremy Jahns just so I can have an idea of what am going into. And so from what reviewers were saying it seemed like this was a bad movie and that it was pointless one YouTube reviewer who I love even went on to sat Michelle Pfeiffer was confused and didn't know what she was doing in the damn film.

Fast forward to me seeing the film,I finally got to make an opinion of my own and kind of see where some reasonable people were coming from. I mean there's a lot of confusing stuff here that doesn't hold up with the continuity such as Ghost's back story but it's actually not that big of deal.....it would have been better if they tried to fit her in the narrative a little more better but they didn't so what?.

 Everybody acted like this was such a terrible outing when in reality one of the worst marvel movies ever made known as Ragnarok(yes I said it) was praised and made a ton of movie so what exactly was/is the problem with Ant-man and the Wasp?.

  For one,it confirms that Marvel are trying their best to make very relatable villains that you can sympathise with. I mean Ghost isn't even really a villain,she's just a young girl trying to save her self from dying due to an accident she got with the Quantum realm. It's not really executed the best way but it definitely gets you wondering if you'd do the same thing in her shoes because the actress is so good and she convinces you that this is her only shot at life.

  The main story is as simple as any thing. Hank believes his wife is  still alive and with his daughter's help,re-enlists a house arrest induced Scott to help them while escaping his parole officers and black market tech sellers. Okay now so if there's anything I agree on,it was definitely dumbing down Scott's intelligence to make Hope seem more efficient as the wasp.

Scott's daughter is more adorable in this one,I loved her even much and they kind of set up a superhero future with her and from recent casting news it seems as though that will be what happens next.
I have no idea why this was done because it honestly sucked and made no sense because they basically made Scott a big dummy. I really hated all the scenes where they made Scott super stupid... Every one of them sucked and it wasn't cool to see at all.

 I liked Alot of the characters but most of the time I felt like they gave Luis too much screentime because he was a fan favorite from the first one which wasn't all that good to me you know?. The comedy also is really great when they're not focusing on selling a joke...all the scenes where they're going back and forth on a specific joke just sucks except the truth serum joke,that one was really funny.

   But honestly,I don't see why anybody would say this film was bad,the story line is really simple and ran away from the whole saving the world scenario and I think maybe that's why "MCU Geeks" didn't like it I mean releasing that post infinity war would definitely leave a lot of people scratching their heads. But,it makes up for it with the post credit scene that will definitely make you feel sad and start to truly see the gravity of Thanos's finger snap.

 Interlude: if it matters here are my favorite characters from the film;
-Scott
-Ghost
-Cassie
-Goliath
-Hope
-Luis
-Hank

 If you saw the leaked avengers 4 images and watch this film(especially the first credit scene) you'll start to have an idea of what Marvel's future plan is and I think it just might be....TIME TRAVEL.

IT(2017):Lazy Review

Written By
  I've been stuck thinking about what to post and I got nothing. But I remembered that I watched "IT" late December and I wasn't scared surprisingly. I mean,they were a couple of jump scares but overall nothing really scared me. It was a fun movie though and I see why it got a sequel announced and universal praise. It's based of the first chapter of the Stephen King novel of the same name and I have read a couple of pages from  the book but I haven't finished it because I'm lazy and I procrastinate a lot(I haven't still finished reading a song of ice and fire).   Set in the '90-somethings(I'm lazy don't eat me) in a town of something,something(I know,you're disappointed) a series of kids get missing and the adults of the town act like nothing's happening. Bill Denbrough(that's right,I remembered his name) looses his brother as well. Billy and other kids in the town(including his friends) start to see th...

STRANGER THINGS 2

Written By
   A lot of movies and shows are set in the past these days but in my own opinion, none of them really do it like STRANGER THINGS. If you remove the acting,the amazing plot,and chemistry, what you're left with is these show that has a very '80s feel because of the overall sound from the show and visuals.      Season 2 is a blast and it simply perfected the formula season 1 set which is, simple plot,great characters,good chemistry and amazing(classic)music. My face everytime Dustin jokes       The Season starts a year after and all our characters are basically trying to settle on after the ending of the first season. Mike's still trying to communicate with Eleven, Will is bullied in school, he's called "zombie boy", Lucas is well still Lucas and Dustin has teeth now,"Prrrr"(you'll get the joke soon enough)       I'll try not to be very spoiler-y so let's start up!!!. •MAX AND BILLY     The dick The new...

Who Would Win? Batman Vs Spiderman

Written By
Okay before I start I'd like you all to know I am not being partial in any way at all. I had this argument with my friend Andrea a couple of days back and now I feel like sharing on who I think would win,but I realised they are two perspective 1-choosing a winner based on accomplishment 2-choosing a winner based on powers or strengths 1- this perspective is basically saying "oh look at this let's check out both characters accomplishments",they both have taken down a large amount of enemies ranging from smart villains to dumb ones,they've both faced foes that are big and strong. So it's only reasonable to think Batman would win here,not by a long shot though because Spiderman is a force to be reckoned with. Batman has basically done more important things,he has defeated Superman severally,dodged darkseid's omega beams,outsmarted braniac,I mean the man is a bit fluent in kryptonian and he knows several martial art skills and he's just a human......

Enjoying music (on your own)

Written By
Music is not for the English or French,  or Italian, or anyone at all.  Music is the simple or complex cluster of sounds that sound pleasing, acceptable to the ear. Needless say, almost every person appreciates good music and some have mistaken this appreciation as an avenue to create something. Some succeed at it, and others - a whole bunch - don't. Music isn't just something you create on a whim, unless you're Labrinth 🐐 Seriously, creating music is difficult, complex and very stressful. But there's an easier part and it's called LISTENING - not like Wizkid FC and Tiwa Savage's gladiators sha.  People oft imagine music to be "better" when the speakers are going like the drums of judgement day and uhh... no. Don't do that. Music inflated by volume is noise. [Unless it's metal, then KPK👍] There are 5 simple ways to enjoy music when step 0 - good speakers/headphones - is achieved. - First, music is best enjoyed in a peaceful environment, not a...
