I’ve seen a few posts here and there that were interested in the significance of Obi-Wan giving Tala’s holster to Leia in the final chapter of OBI-WAN KENOBI. They mostly talk about Kenobi creating a path for Leia to follow which would eventually result in her taking up a blaster in RETURN OF THE JEDI, … Continue reading Padme’s Legacy as a badass – and the importance of Leia’s Holster in KENOBI
So today Disney Plus released an updated version of the MCU timeline that showed just where DOCTOR STRANGE IN THE MULTIVERSE OF MADNESS fits in. And it surprised some people. Let’s take a look: They placed MULTIVERSE OF MADNESS before HAWKEYE. And people had an issue with this. And that's upsetting. Because I totally got … Continue reading How MULTIVERSE OF MADNESS takes place after NO WAY HOME but before HAWKEYE
There's much speculation floating around about the remaining three episodes of OBI-WAN KENOBI: will Darth Vader and Obi-Wan meet again, will Reva find out who Leia actually is, will the Grand Inquisitor return? But one possible confrontation sent me into speculation mode after Episode 3, and I haven't heard many people discuss the possibility. I … Continue reading JUST A THEORY | Will Leia meet Darth Vader in OBI-WAN KENOBI… and could she be on a “mercy mission”??
Last week I ranked Kylo Ren/ Ben Solo’s top 10 outfits of the sequel trilogy and while that might have been completed mildly tongue in cheek, I also have genuine affection for the character. And truth is I am an even bigger fan of Rey Skywalker (which has meant a lot of internet arguments). So … Continue reading Top 10 Outfits of Rey Skywalker Ranked
In honor of MAY THE 4TH BE WITH YOU 2022, I’m ranking Kylo Ren’s outfits in the sequel trilogy. This may sound like a weird idea for a post. But frankly I've done weirder and I'm a big Star Wars fan and miss writing about it. I also think Kylo's wardrobe is worth discussing because … Continue reading The Top 10 Outfits of Kylo Ren aka Ben Solo Ranked
As THE BATMAN drops on HBO MAX tomorrow, I decided to reflect on my experience with the film so far. Yeah I am a lunatic who has watched in 13 times. Maybe that's not that crazy but it feels like it. But for me, this is a film that goes far beyond genre-defining and became … Continue reading 13 Weird Things I Learned From Watching THE BATMAN 13 Times IN THEATERS
I did not hate MORBIUS. And as such, I was prepared to write a blog that defended the MORBIUS post-credit scenes. I was prepared to do an entry of my ongoing series "HEAR ME OUT" series after listening to all the online negativity surrounding BOTH MORBIUS AND its post-credit scenes. But that was before I … Continue reading Are the MORBIUS Post-Credit Scenes Really That Bad? YES – But in the Sony-verse maybe it does not matter | JUST STATING FACTS
Is the age of princesses over? More than any other Disney live-action adaptation, the currently in production live-action version of Walt Disney’s 1938 masterpiece SNOW WHITE AND THE SEVEN DWARFS has been filled with people asking the question, “why?” And for reasons ranging ANYWHERE from "why remake a masterpiece?" to "why remake a film that … Continue reading The Importance of the Aesthetics of Disney’s SNOW WHITE (and why Rachel Anne Zegler is a great fit)
Let's baselessly, but intelligently, speculate about MADAME WEB. The MADAME WEB character is the definition of a comic book deep cut. Hers is a great story that connects to so many different characters in Spider-Man lore - but it does so precariously and tangentially. So I was a bit confused when Sony announced that they … Continue reading What might Sony’s MADAME WEB film be about – and who might Dakota Johnson and Sydney Sweeney be playing? | JUST A THEORY
I’ve watched and read a lot of critics praise THE BATMAN, but criticize its third act as both underdeveloped and incongruous with the preceding story. With criticisms ranging from “how would this be part of the Riddler’s plan” to “feels like its out of another movie” to “doesn’t Riddler's final attack actually hurt the poorest … Continue reading The Third Act of THE BATMAN is Actually Great and Essential to Riddler’s Story
