Fans are beyond excited to see the epilogue of the Marvel Cinematic Universe’s Phase 3 and the prologue for Phase 4. People are also curious to see what is to come in Peter’s life, between his friends, relationships, and new partnerships. The dynamic of Mysterio is truly fascinating, but raises even more questions.

Ever since the release of Iron Man in 2008, Marvel Studios has been steadily building how many films they release in a year. Throughout Phase 1 and most of Phase 2, they only released one movie a year. With the last two films of Phase 2 and the first half of Phase 3, the moved it up to two a year.

You know, you would think that, in 2019, people would be far more progressive than they were from, say, the early 1800’s. But, while most of the world is open to all races, genders, creeds, and orientations, there are still some low brow cave trolls out there who actually champion racist, sexist, and homophobic tendencies. Case in point; some ‘fan’ has reedited Avengers: Endgame to exclude all females, homosexuals, and even black heroes. Circulating the Dark Web, this ‘cut’ but some amateur editor has taken out all the parts with women in powerful roles, even going so far as as…

It has been a bit of a renaissance lately for our friendly, neighborhood Spider-Man. The Marvel Cinematic Universe’s version of Spidey has been a breath of fresh air, giving us arguably the best, and certainly most comic accurate, version of Peter Parker with Tom Holland.

Now, as we approach the release of Spider-Man: Far From Home, Holland has a suggestion for a future installment that would probably cause fans’ head to collectively explode.…

Iron Man was an unexpected choice by Marvel Studios to be the flagship of their budding Marvel Cinematic Universe when the first film debuted in 2008. But, their gamble paid off and Robert Downey Jr.’s interpretation of the playboy, philanthropist, billionaire with an amazing suit of armor won the hearts of fans all over the world. Throughout the course the MCU, we watched the character grow into a true hero, and his story arc came to an end in Avengers: Endgame, as he sacrificed his life to save the entire universe. We watched him fall in love, create a new…

Spider-Man: Far From Home is about to hit theaters and fans are super excited to see the epilogue to Phase 3 of the Marvel Cinematic Universe, as well as what the future holds in Phase 4. The main point of contention amongst fans, however, has been the deal between Marvel and Sony. Sony still owns the rights to Spider-Man and his supporting characters, but Marvel is able to use Spidey in the MCU. Does that mean that the Wall Crawler will never get to interact with the Sony Spider-Verse that they have recently established with Venom? Kevin Feige has weighed…

Keanu Reeves is a global treasure and quite possibly an immortal who has been roaming the Earth for centuries. Arguably the nicest person in Hollywood, Reeves has had a stellar career over the last 30 plus years. He has had defining action movies in each of the last three decades, and has been some of the most iconic characters in recent cinema history. And, while he has dipped his toes in the superhero world with his take on DC’s Constantine, the Marvel Cinematic Universe has yet to be graced with his presence. That’s not to say they haven’t tried, though.…
