Marvel Monday: Spider Man Homecoming Review

Okay so I've been trying to watch this movie for several weeks... and it isn't that I haven't been loving it... it's mostly that I start watching it at 1am or something and then I get too sleepy to finish it.

I feel like there are sooooo many Spider Man movies and I feel like my biggest problem with the first Amazing Spider Man movie was that it was similar to the first of the Toby Maguire's Spider Man movies. This one is good because they don't really go into anything that they do in any of the other spider man movies... You know that he was bit by a spider- you get the feeling that something maybe happened to his uncle... you get pretty much the full story without having to sit through the same thing for a third time... which is good. It gets right into the story and the action.

I feel like the action is pretty well paced alongside setting up the actual story of who Peter Parker is outside of Spider Man and what makes him who he really is. It sets up the high school really well- there are good callbacks to Captain America: Civil War... some references to the fact that he hasn't met Thor or The Hulk yet- which I think is kind of setting up Thor: Ragnarock a little. I just thought that that was cool.

I also like how the Marvel movies can change genres... and I think this movie is a good example of that. It's like a regular high school movie... but with a super hero and crazy weapons. And it's kind of cool that it shows us this is what High School is like in a world where there are Avengers. It's actually pretty cool.

I think my favorite part of the whole movie is when the lady buys him the churro and he tells Happy and then he says "I shouldn't have told him about the lady with the churro... and then Iron man brings it up... it's just super funny and it shows how young he is and how much he kind of values his city and all of the people in it. And I love when he's stuck in that one building and he talks to "Karen" the computer in his suit. It's just really funny and it just makes it so fun.

So is Tom Holland the best Spider Man... I'm not sure. I think Toby Maguire and Andrew Garfield are really good too... but I'm kind of happy Tom Holland is our current Spider Man. I think he's really energetic and fun and I just think he's done a great job with it. Everyone involved in this Spider Man Movie definitely made it feel like its own thing and it definitely stands out with all the spider man movies and is a good way to introduce Spider Man to the MCU!

So that is my review of Spider Man Homecoming... This might be one of my actual favorites! I thought this was super fun!

Bye!

Scribbles about TV: Jane The Virgin Review!

This I think is a surprise hit, so of corse I needed to watch it for myself to see! It's been getting a lot of critical buzz because it has been reviewed as "one of the best pilots of the season" and I also have been hearing a few critics saying that they don't think it will last because the word "virgin" is in the title... which is stupid. There is nothing wrong with being a virgin and if a show is good, its good and people should watch it... plus this did bring pretty high ratings for The CW so the critics that said that can suck it! Lol. Overall I really liked this show. One thing thats been bothering me a lot about the new Fall shows is that the characters aren't interesting enough. Especially the female characters. I thought that this showed a lot of really strong female characters that were interesting. This had a pretty big cast with A LOT of stuff going on for a pilot and most of the characters were female. That is a powerful thing to see on TV...

Weekly Wrap Up 7.30.17

Sunday 7.23.17  Sunday was a really good day… it was kind of a lazy day for me… but my dad pretty much finished most of the painting in my room… he ran out of paint before he could totally finish it up… so he’ll finish that up soon… my mom is going to the paint store tomorrow… so hopefully he can finish it up then.  He also made some really fantastic barbecue pork… it was going to be pulled pork… but the pulling process didn’t really work… I kind of prefer the texture of it sliced instead of pulled…. idk. I like pulled pork… but this sliced pork was really delicious and flavorful and good.  We went for Starbucks and Ice Cream too… which was fun. Starbucks sends a lot of bonus stars offers after 2… so even though we go in the morning- we have to go after 2 because then we’ll get bonus stars, which my dad uses in New York because it’s a little more expensive there.  And then the ice cream… nutella ice cream with crushed oreos and marshmallow…it was del...

Man Crush Monday: Jimmy Fallon

Jimmy Fallon is one of my favorite talk show hosts... and I pretty much like all the late night talk show hosts... so that is saying a lot. (I haven't actually watched James Cordin yet, but I have a huge crush on him from Into The Woods, so yeah. I also have a crush on Seth Meyer though... And all the comedy central guys... ugh. Lol. and obviously Jimmy Fallon. Lol.) So yeah... this is saying a lot that he is one of my favorites. 1) He genuinely acts like he has the most fun job in the world-  Jimmy Fallon is always really excited about the show. He pretty much does have the most fun job ever, and he actually appreciates it. He was on SNL, and when he left SNL for late night he was excited and proud of his job, and now on The Tonight Show he's very happy. 2) His Ice Cream Flavors are good- This one is completely random... but I feel like having Ben and Jerry's make an ice cream flavor after you is a really big honor and a great responsibility. You can tell a lot about a...
