People keep saying that Marvel fell off, but we personally don’t agree. There are plenty of great things to find in The Marvels, the latest addition to the MCU. We would love to be invited to the Carol/Monica/Kamala sleepover! Check out our review to hear our thoughts on The Marvels as well as the current state of the MCU and its fandom.

Mini-review:

I'm honestly surprised this movie received so much hate, cause it's fun in a way MCU films haven't been in years. Like, it's genuinely laugh-out-loud funny. The three leads have fantastic chemistry, and the story packs some of the most original and riotous things I've seen in a Marvel movie (like the Aladna scenes or the cats). On top of that, the film is only 100-minute long, so it gets straight to the point, and it never feels the need to include filler content. My biggest complaint is that the CGI is pretty mediocre, and even downright ugly at times (although I know the VFX team did their best to comply with the studio's crazy demands). But yeah, I enjoyed The Marvels way more than I expected. While it's flawed for sure, it also brought me back to when Marvel movies were just pure fun.

The Marvels (12): A Marvel that cat-lovers in particular will enjoy.

#onemannsmovies #filmreview of "The Marvels". #TheMarvels. Frenetic, funny Marvel film that sometimes loses the plot. 3.5/5.

A One Mann’s Movies review of “The Marvels” (2023). “The Marvels” seems to have crept into cinemas with relatively little fanfare for a $250 million film. As if Marvel seem a bit embarrassed about it and have already filed it in the “failure” bucket. But this feels more than premature, since the characters here have a lot of appeal, particularly with the proportion of the audience that can…

Review: The Snail House, Hampstead Theatre

After an illustrious career directing and adapting, Richard Eyre turns his hand to original writing with mixed results in The Snail House at Hampstead Theatre “I’m not saying I was wise or heroic…” Richard Eyre’s CV comprises much directing (including Artistic Director of the National Theatre from 1988-1997) and adapting of other people’s work but The Snail House actually registers as his first…

[freetheshit-outofyou]

Stephen, a movie made for women, with a mostly female cast, with a very female slant, you know like musical interludes and space kittens fails its because of adolescent fanboy hate. You know, 'Yuck! GIRLS!'" It is because, the movies target demographic is in the Taylor Swift Eras Tour Experience. It's about your target demographic not wanting to see it because they are not sold on the fantasy. Not boys and men fanboy hating. If the story is compelling, the acting great, and the action off the charts boys and men will watch paint dry. This movie makes re-runs of paint drying better viewing. Let's not forget that Marvel/Disney is more concerned with slinging out movies and shows one after another OVER compelling stories. This is movie two and we still know shit about Captain Marvel. Most people who have seen the movies don't even know that Carol Danvers is the 7th Captain Marvel, the Kree Captain Mar-Vel being the first. There has never been any character development, no real back story, she just is and the audience is expected to buy into that blunt character arc. That horrendous Ghost Busters movie did much the same thing, the exception there is they hoped on fans extrapolating the back story from the previous male portrayals and applying that to the female cast, that failed also. Movies like Hanna (2011), Daughter of the Wolf 2019), The Quick and The Dead (1995), and most of the Alien franchise comes to mind when I think of good female movies. I know there are many more that I love but just can't think of. Ultraviolet (2006) The point is, blaming men for the failure of Nia DaCosta, Megan McDonnell and Elissa Karasik writing, Nin DaCosta's directing and honestly the flat acting of Brie Larson just isn't good enough to drive anyone to the theaters. And yes I have seen it, No I did not pay for it, thank you 123mivies for saving me from paying for it. You know, my fanboy hating and all.

Juntas tendrán que unir fuerzas y aprender a trabajar en equipo para salvar el universo.

Crimes That Shook Britain (South East England)

Murder of Lin and Megan Russell On 9 July 1996, Lin Russell, 45, was walking home from school in Chillenden, Kent, with her two young daughters, Josie, 9, and Megan, 6. 

On a country lane, drug addict Michael Stone suddenly attacked, demanding money. The three victims were tied up, blindfolded, then savagely beaten with a hammer.  Josie was the sole survivor, despite suffering catastrophic head injuries. And, as she recovered, the brave little girl helped officers create an e-fit of the attacker. 

A year later, psychopath Stone, 37, was charged. A cellmate testified Stone confessed while on remand in Canterbury Prison.  Michael Stone was convicted and jailed for life for the murders of Lin and Megan. 

Josie and her father Shaun moved to Wales to rebuild their lives. Stone continues to protest his innocence from prison and has pointed blame at killer Levi Bellfield, who he says resembles the e-fit picture. 

Daniel Gonzalez Daniel Gonzalez, from Woking, had fantasies of being horror-film slasher Freddy Krueger and wanted to be a ‘famous serial killer’.  On 15 September 2004, wearing a hockey mask, Gonzalez stabbed Marie Harding, 73, to death on a Worthing footpath. Two days later, he killed Kevin Molloy, 46, in north London, then Derek and Jean Robinson, 75, and 68, in their home.  Two other men, aged 61 and 59, survived attacks. 

Gonzalez was arrested at a tube station on 17 September after buying a ticket with a bloodstained £20 note.  Daniel Gonzalez, 26, was jailed for life and took his own life in Broadmoor psychiatric hospital in August 2007. 

Killing of Billie-Jo Jenkins  Billie-Jo Jenkins, 13, was killed by a blow to her head at her home in Hastings, on 15 February 1997.  Billie-Jo had been placed in foster care with Sion and Lois Jenkins when she was 9, and foster father Sion said he’d got home that day to find Billie-Jo in a pool of blood. 

Sion soon became prime suspect - forensics found microscopic spots of blood on his clothes and, in July 1998, he was convicted of murder.  But experts said blood on his clothing could’ve come from Billie-Jo’s airway as she lay dying.  After two appeals, Sion’s conviction was quashed. After two re-trials failed to reach a verdict, he was acquitted in 2006. The case is still unsolved. 

Levi Bellfield  Levi Bellfield hated all women. The 6ft 1in, 20st wheel clamper stalked and attacked them after they got off night buses.  In February 2003, Bellfield bludgeoned student Marsha McDonnell, 19, with a hammer in Hampton, southwest London. 

In May 2004, he drove into Kate Sheedy, 18, before reversing over her. Amazingly, she survived.  Bellfield beat French student Amelie Delagrange, 22, to death in August 2004 on Twickenham Green. He was arrested when his van was caught on CCTV near the scene. 

Bellfield was sentenced to a whole-life term for killing Marsha and Amelie. Afterwards, police linked Bellfield to the unsolved murder of schoolgirl Milly Dowler, 13, who’d vanished while walking home in Walton-on-Thames in March 2002.  Her remains were found six months later.

Despite being convicted of Milly’s murder in 2011 and handed another whole-life term, Bellfield refused to admit his guilt.  But, 14 years on, he admitted abducting, raping and strangling the schoolgirl. 

Hungerford Massacre A sunny August afternoon in 1987 in Hungerford, Berkshire - and loner Michael Ryan, 27, armed with two semi-automatic rifles and a pistol, went on a rampage.  Ryan shot dead a mother picnicking with her kids in Savernake Forest and, by 1pm, he was shooting people at random in the town center. 

By the day’s end, 16 people were dead, including Ryan’s mother and a police officer.  A further 15 were injured.

Armed police swarmed the area, and, after evading capture all afternoon, Ryan shot and killed himself. 

Murder of Sarah Payne Sarah Payne, 8, vanished while playing with her siblings near her grandparents’ home in Kingston Gorse, West Sussex on 1 July 2000. 

A huge police hunt was launched and, on 17 July, Sarah’s body was found beside a field, 15 miles from where she’d disappeared. Roy Whiting, a local paedophile and convicted sex offender, was the prime suspect.  A strand of hair matching Sarah’s DNA was found on a T-shirt in Whiting’s white van and fibers  from the van were also on Sarah’s shoe. 

Whiting was jailed for life. Sarah’s mother Sara successfully campaigned for Sarah’s Law - which allows anyone to formally ask the police if someone with access to a child has a record for child sexual offenses.

‘The Marvels’ First Trailer Brie Larson Leads an All Female Superhero Trio in ‘Captain Marvel’ Sequel

‘The Marvels’ First Trailer Brie Larson Leads an All Female Superhero Trio in ‘Captain Marvel’ Sequel Brie Larson is back in the Marvel Cinematic Universe for “The Marvels,” the sequel to 2019’s “Captain Marvel.” This time, Larson shares the spotlight with fellow female MCU stars Teyonah Parris from “WandaVision” and Iman Vellani from “Ms. Marvel.” The anticipated follow-up to Carol Danvers’ origin story takes place after the Disney+ series “Ms. Marvel,” which introduced Vellani as Kamala Khan, a.k.a. the young, New Jersey superhero Ms. Marvel. Prior to the first “The Marvels'” trailer release, the first look at the film was shown exclusively to panel attendees at the 2022 D23 Expo. The initial footage offers insight into the aftermath of the “Ms. Marvel” post-credits scene, where Kamala seemingly swapped places with Carol. “The Marvels” teaser picked up shortly thereafter, with Captain Monica Rambeau (Parris) working as an astronaut for Saber Space Station alongside Nick Fury (Samuel L. Jackson). When Monica hits a jump point in the space continuum, she morphs into Ms. Marvel, confirming she, Carol and Kamala share a unique set of transformative powers. The official “The Marvels” synopsis from Marvel Studios reads: “Carol Danvers aka Captain Marvel has reclaimed her identity from the tyrannical Kree and taken revenge on the Supreme Intelligence. But unintended consequences see Carol shouldering the burden of a destabilized universe. When her duties send her to an anomalous wormhole linked to a Kree revolutionary, her powers become entangled with that of Jersey City super-fan Kamala Khan, aka Ms. Marvel, and Carol’s estranged niece, now S.A.B.E.R. astronaut Captain Monica Rambeau. Together, this unlikely trio must team up and learn to work in concert to save the universe.” After helming 2021’s “Candyman” reboot, director Nia DaCosta will make her Marvel Cinematic Universe debut with “The Marvels” — a feat that makes her the first Black woman, and fourth woman, to direct a film in the MCU. DaCosta co-wrote the screenplay with Megan McDonnell, Elissa Karasik and Zeb Wells. South Korean actor Park Seo-joon, best known for his roles in “Parasite” and the TV series “Itaewon Class,” also stars in the film. Other confirmed cast members include Saagar Shaikh, Zenoiba Shroff and Mohan Kapur as Kamala’s older brother, mother and father, respectively, along with Zawe Ashton in an undisclosed villain role. Goose, the fan-favorite Flerken, will also make a return to the screen. After a delay from this summer, “The Marvels” hits theaters on Nov. 10, 2023. Watch the official trailer below.
