Jessica Jones


So I have been excited for Jessica Jones since I looked her up when Netflix announced this TV series. So for those of you who don't know who this character is, Jessica Campbell is her birth name, she went to school and had a bit of a crush on Peter Parker. While with her family on there way back from Disneyland their car collided with a military convoy carrying, you guessed it, radioactive materials.

Her family died, she woke from a coma several months later with super strength, a limited invulnerability and the ability to fly. She was then placed in an orphanage and later adopted by the Jones family.

Witnessing Spiderman take on Sandman made her want to use her powers for good and Jewel was born. Although her superhero career was pretty uneventful ending in her being mind controlled by The Purple Man. The show picks up with her opening her detective agency where due to her background most of her clients are superheroes.

I'm looking forward to this hero for hire situation and her abilities are really powerful so it would be nice to see her take on an avenger or popping up in Daredevil and vice versa. The trailer looks like opening credits and is pretty psychedelic as well as being pretty purple which would tie in with the abuse she suffered from the Purple Man. Check it out below and Jessica Jones will be available on Netflix from the 20th of November. BINGE WATCH!

Daredevil Season 2 Trailer

SPOILERS, as always for those who haven't watched season one.  So everyone's favorite Blind(ish) Superhero is back in a new trailer. Matt Murdock (Charlie Cox) is feeling guilty, maybe for the death of Ben Urich (Vondie Curtis-Hall) last season, maybe for something completely different. Father Lantom (Peter McRobbie) tells Matt that guilt can be a good, although Karen (Deborah Ann Woll) and Foggy (Elden Henson) also look plenty guilty in this teaser trailer. We then see a bunch of clips including Claire Temple (Rosario Dawson) in her nurse scrubs, and Elektra (Elodie Yung) getting her mask on, all while hearing a voice over from Father Lantom who indicates that it may be because Matt's work as Daredevil is not yet finished. We then see Karen Page holding a Punisher skull on a x-ray and looking pretty freaked out by it. Then comes what I am most looking forward to, Frank Castle (Jon Bernthal) is here, in a hospital (watch out Claire) and looking pretty bad ass if I do...

Mental Illness in TV and Film - Frozen

I did say last week that I was taken time off to grieve but after watching Frozen at the weekend I couldn't help but look at it from a Mental Illness perspective. I took this as a sign that I was ready to continue writing this series. Is Elsa a metaphor for Anxiety? The disorder that keeps me up at night seems to be prevalent in this film, even Grand Pabbie says it to a young Elsa at the start of the film, "Fear will be your enemy," and we see Elsa lash out at her coronation celebration. The fear she has inside her makes Elsa's powers go haywire, she fears her secret will be revealed to others around her, just as I feel people will find out I have anxiety just by being around me. But fear is not the solution, it ends up hurting the people Elsa loves the most, as she lashes out and pushes them away. She becomes so scared of hurting others that she ends up hurting them. Then when her powers get out of control she runs away and hides inside her own Ice Palac...
