Why Wonder Woman was the Film that I needed.

SPOILERS AHEAD... I've spent a long time away from writing, occasionally popping on to write or I'll write about something and end up not posting it because I have been very depressed recently. My mother got very sick right around the same time that I had a miscarriage, I also suffered trauma from the miscarriage itself, which I had no idea could actually happen but it does around 25% of the time. My head has not been in a very good place recently, with the tests and the panic attacks. I had lost my voice and forgotten how to write, but then I went to see Wonder Woman. For two hours that film made me laugh, it made me cry, and it made me feel strong. I felt as though I had to power to do anything, be anything, I went through something terrible and I would make it to the other side stronger. For two hours I forgot about everything I'd been through and just focused on this fun action flick, at no point was I worried or anxious, I just got to see one of my childhood h...

Rogue One, Doctor Strange and more in This Weeks Movie News

We have had a lot of news this week when it comes to the wonderful world of movies, but instead of writing a piece which is so long and detailed that the average film fan might skip half of, I decided to give my highlights or possible lowlights of the week depending how enraged I am feeling at that particular moment. Doctor Strange Rumors are swirling that the Doctor Strange trailer will be released this Tuesday on Jimmy Kimmel Live but this week we've also had some pictures and videos taken from the set which have peaked my interest ever so slightly. In the video we see Doctor Strange (Benedict Cumberbatch) and Baron Mordo (Chiwetel Ejiofor) lying behind a black car, they then stand up, turn, run and jump. Photo's were also released of Mads Mikkelsen's villain, I have no idea who this character is but the eye make up looks amazing.  Moviepilot  can tell you much more than I can about this character's possible origins, and if you click that link you can a...

Batman V Superman Review

I have sat and thought about this movie since seeing it on Saturday, I've slept it on, I've tried researching more into it, but nothing I do seems to make me feel better about this movie. I went into this movie a DC fan, frustrated that the only good movies to come out of this studio in the past ten years are movies about Batman. Before the hate descends upon me, I'd like to make it clear that I love Batman, everything from his great gadgets to his awesome detective skills, my frustration has been from the lack of other great DC heroes on the big screen. I'm sure some of you out there think Man of Steel is a great movie, but I can't bring myself to love a darker Superman, maybe it's because I think Superman should represent the best of us all, but that's another argument for another day.  Before going into see the movie I accepted that Superman was going to be dark, Batman was going to be killing a bunch of people, and Wonder Woman was going to j...

Not really excited for Batman v Superman!

Sorry I'm just not excited for this movie. The trailer is meh, sorry guys but it is. Compare any Batman V Superman trailers to the first Civil war trailer and it just blows it out of the park. Many of you will disagree with me but I just can't get excited for this movie and I'm usually the one that sticks up for DC. So we see some banter between Bruce Wayne (Ben Affleck) and Clark Kent (Henry Cavill) as they exchange pleasantries. Why would Bruce Wayne be talking to a reporter, especially about matters regarding Batman and Superman. Unless he knows that Clark Kent is Superman. Yes the banter is interesting but it doesn't make sense, and then in comes Lex Luthor Jr (Jesse Eisenberg) who I'm just not 100% convinced by at this very moment. I'm not saying he is going to be bad, he's quippy which I usually like and most of the world thinks this Lex Luthor is great, but I just can't put my finger on what I don't like about this character.        ...
