Falcon and The Winter Solider Episode 4 The World is Watching (Spoiler Free Review)

-


Two reviews in a day. Why the hell not, right? Usually don't have the energy to type this fast but I am on a roll. This week finally proves that Kevin Feige and the Marvel company really gave alot of leeway towards the writers of this show to be as dark it needs to be. With the title this week called  'The World is Watching', it  immediately clicks in your head that something big is about to go down. 

With half of the season gone, The Falcon and The Winter Solider is now heading to the more dramatic parts of the show that delivers so hard, I am pretty sure fans are raving now as to what happened in this episode. With my reaction itself on this review kind of spoils you guys as to how shocking this episode will be from beginning to end. (On a plus note: To all the fans who have been death-threatening Wyatt Russell for his portrayal as John Walker, you need to stop now and start thinking about how this can affect a regular person let alone an actor. Please respect him and separate the role from the actor). 


The star of this particular episode was surprisingly Wyatt Russell, giving it his all to play this easy-to-hate yet relatable character who is only being underestimated and belittled - offscreen and onscreen. His storyline arc in this episode not only gears us up for future events that feature him but also really gets us wondering what is really going to play out in the finale of this internet breaking show. Erin Kellyman is also another wildcard waiting for right moments to be mellow and then a scary fighter the next moment which makes her oh so talented and leaving me hoping that she leaves this show in a open ended sense so, that we can see more of her much like how Zemo and possibly John Walker will be handled - being optimistic to how faithful the writers are being towards the comic books, of course. 

All in all, another great episode that left us wanting more. The set up is a killer for Marvel fans who are right now just craving for answers and more mayhem to occur in this already mayhem-filled 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
