WandaVision Episode 4 (Spoiler-Free Review)

-

Here's to another Friday with more content to the MCU. WandaVision returns with an all-new episode for us, Marvel fans. This week's episode answers a bunch of questions while also adding new ones (like honestly, are we supposed to be surprised by this). You may get disappointed this week, the star will not be Lizzie Olsen herself, but instead Teyonah Parris, who is possibly Marvel's new darling.

The tonal shift that we have all been waiting for is finally here by putting the spotlight this time entirely on Monica Rambeau and how she ended up in Westview. With the help of a few familiar faces, we get a behind the scenes look of the show within the show that has been freaking us out since the first episode. This episode is crawling with spoilers and Easter eggs that we have all been guessing since the beginning, which is scary considering the possibility that Marvel is getting a little stalker-y with their fans or... we are just getting to smart to fall for plot twists. 

The issue for us fans eventually guessing everything is either a good thing or bad thing is unknown but for now, it's good since there are fans out there watching WandaVision that are loving it. I do know reception is better for this episode since it does acknowledge the MCU, finally pleasing the people who were not loving the previous episodes (which is sad since they're not seeing, let alone, enjoying the bigger picture in play here). 

Which each episode, the show gets better. I am still on the edge of my seat and nowhere near bored. Hopefully so, and without a doubt, the show might continue this pace for the next five weeks before heading us into another Marvel show.

An Overlooked, Fun Marvel Adventure (The Marvels spoiler-free review)

-

  This is probably the closest thing to a Marvel team-up we will get for a while, and it is unfortunate that the drama within the media surrounding this film is based on reasons that are not progressive. However, that is not what we are here to talk about. The Marvels is the latest entry into the Marvel Cinematic Universe, bringing back Carol Danvers in her latest adventure with Nick Fury and some newfound partnerships with Monica Rambeau and Kamala Khan.  The Marvels is set 33 years after the first Captain Marvel movie, where Carol is still trying to save the universe and she thinks she's the only one who can. After the events of WandaVision, Monica is now working with Fury with her new set of powers in his new project called S.A.B.E.R. while Kamala Khan continues to be the giddy, new superhero that protects the residents of New Jersey but an unworldly event connects her mysterious bangle to both Monica and Carol. Due to this cosmic event involving the Kree supremacist, Dar Benn,

Loki season 2 (Full season review)

With Marvel in a sort of whirlpool of viewers not having consistent reception towards the content, they seem to be missing a very important and well-done part of the Marvel Cinematic Universe. Loki lives up to that statement with its second season. Despite its new writers and directors at the helm, the show still showcases the best parts of Marvel's storytelling.  Taking place immediately after the end of season 1, Loki is dealing with the shenanigans of the TVA and the involvement of Kang variants with the release of the multiverse. It is up to Loki and co. (consisting of Mobius, Hunter B-5, and Casey) to deal with the consequences caused by Sylvie. The show still continues to be a trippy, timey-wimey time travel adventure but adds the Marvel-ous flair that made the franchise so memorable. With new rules and problems being thrown in the mix to deal with, the sci-fi logic continues to be expanded upon, solidifying the greatness of the show.  Unlike most of the Marvel shows that dea

Percy Jackson and The Olympians (Full Season Review)

  With the acquisition of the FOX properties, Disney had the chance to adapt to the world of Percy Jackson once again. However, unlike the last time, Disney makes an adaptation that lives up to the source material as well as embraces author Rick Riordan with production, casting, and various other factors that went into this show.  With this first season following suit of the first novel, The Lightning Thief, Percy Jackson and The Olympians of course, follows the titular character learning of his mythological parentage and what that means when he is thrust into this world as he grows older and more powerful as a demigod. When he is chosen to go on quest based on a prophecy, he enlists help from Annabeth Chase and his best friend/satyr, Grover to find Zeus's missing lightning bolt.  Anyone who has seen the film that was released 12 years ago would have a good idea as to what this first season will cover but people who haven't read the original book will know the many changes that
