When you see the words Holiday Special it’s hard not to be instantly reminded of another of Disney’s acquired products. Star Wars’ baffling, bizarre and very off topic Holiday Special is one that many people wish to forget. Released in ’78 and before Disney bought the rights to its properties but seemingly still want no […]

Black Panther: Wakanda Forever – Review
Phase 4 of the MCU has felt like somewhat of an experimental period for the company, but it’s a phase that seems to lack purpose and any sense of direction going forward. Sadly, the death of Chadwick Boseman – who was to continue playing the role of King T’Challa AKA Black Panther – was something […]
Werewolf by Night – Review
For years I’ve been saying that Marvel is getting too comfortable and have become stagnant and stubborn in their ways. Once they found monumental success with The Avengers in 2012 it felt like they finally had a formula that worked and took the superhero sub-genre to new heights. But since the turn of its 4th […]
Doctor Strange in the Multiverse of Madness – Review
The surgeon superhero Steven Strange is back for his long anticipated direct sequel. A sequel that truly sticks to its namesake. A multiverse hopping trip that feels mad, mysterious and creates a map for the future of Marvel. Helmed by a director that is no novice to the comic book world having directed the original […]
Spider-Man: No Way Home – Review

Constantly finding new ways of upping the stakes, creating fresh stories and introducing new […]
Shang-Chi and the Legend of the Ten Rings – Review
We’re entering a phase of Marvel’s infinite storytelling where I fear those who aren’t regular comic book readers, will start to become disillusioned by their upcoming projects. And by ‘those’ I of course mean me. With the quick back to back releases of Shang-Chi and The Eternals, I feel storytelling and strong character writing will […]
Black Widow – Review
It feels like rubbing salt in the wound by bringing Scarlett Johansson back into the MCU after her dramatic and devastating departure in Avengers: Endgame (2019). But seeing her return as Natasha Romanoff AKA Black Widow, the role an entire generation will pin her to, in her own solo outing seems long overdue. Director Cate […]
WandaVision – First Impressions (Spoiler Free)
It’s been teased for a long time and ever since we first heard about it we’ve be dying to know… “what the hell is it all about?!”. Well, with its release finally hitting Disney+, it looks like we’re about to get our answers. We’re going back in time to the 1950’s. Wanda and Vision appear […]
