‘LOKI’ Trailer is Here and We Have A Million Questions

news, tv

Yesterday Marvel dropped the new Black Widow trailer and today, we’ve got the Loki trailer, which is still two months too far away and we’re impatient. The best part of all this? We have no idea what is happening and judging by how well WandaVision handled our confusion with an incredible series, this oddly fills us with a strange sense of hope. Loki stealing the tesseract, his one true love, has naturally screwed with time and they now need his help to restore everything. No, he does not get a weapon. No, he is not fully trusted. Yes, he is

This Week’s Most Noteworthy Performance: Elizabeth Olsen

this week's most noteworthy performance, tv

February 20-27“Previously On” | WandaVisionElizabeth Olsen PSA: This article will be full of spoilers—if you have yet to see the new episode of Disney’s WandaVision, stop reading right away and return once you’ve done so. I kept putting off a performance review for Elizabeth Olsen because we all knew something large and explosive was coming. (But really, she has been the most noteworthy performer since episode one.) We knew that every look, every move was leading to culminating moments where she’d have to bare it all, stripping herself bit by bit. As Agatha tried to figure out how Wanda did

This Week’s Most Noteworthy Performance: Kathryn Hahn

this week's most noteworthy performance, tv

February 14-20“Breaking the Fourth Wall” | WandaVisionKathryn Hahn Before we dive into this performance review, make sure you’ve seen the latest episode of WandaVision because this will be spoiler heavy. We knew. We all knew, but a teeny tiny part of us hoped, perhaps even thought, no we’re wrong, it’s too obvious. Agnes can’t be Agatha Harkness, it’s just … too obvious. And yet sometimes, the obvious answer is the answer. It’s the one that makes the most sense and there could not have been a more perfect actress to play her than Kathryn Hahn. While most of the women

This Week’s Most Noteworthy Performance: Teyonah Parris

this week's most noteworthy performance, tv

January 24-30“We Interrupt This Program” | WandaVisionTeyonah Parris Teyonah Parris was an effortless scene stealer as the mysterious Geraldine the last two weeks, but stepping up as herself, Monica Rambeau brought forth some excellent performances on screen. WandaVision continues to be the gift that keeps on giving with surprising twists and turns that leave us astonished–the little show that could and the incredible cast who could. Parris was enamoring this week as the audience lived through a whirlwind of emotions right alongside her. From the moment she returned after the blip to learning her mother has passed, all the way

In Memoriam of Anthony Edward “Tony” Stark and the Legacy of Iron Man, the World’s Best Defender

features, movies

“The earth lost its best defender.” To requote Captain America — the world lost its best defender. And while death is difficult to discuss, it’s cathartic when mourning a tremendous loss. Tony Stark’s sacrificial death was one felt everywhere — a fictional loss that’ll be with us for years to come because so few before him have had such a poignant, profoundly colossal impact. He was the one in 14,000,605. It had to be him and his death served a purpose. And where great storytelling is concerned, being able to put the greater good of the world before his own

Black Panther and the Relationships That Shape Us

features, movies

Spoilers Ahead Believe the hype — it’s real, it’s wonderful, and it’s the best cinematic experience in recent years with some of the most captivating performances that have ever graced our screens. Black Panther is a masterpiece; it’s an undeniable brilliance, but I’m not here to write a film review, there’s plenty of those already. I’m here to talk about the relationships that I can’t stop thinking about, and how the film emphasized the importance of unity and communication. And the story of the Black Panther, the emphasis on T’Challa as a man, a King — an Avenger is only beginning. A beginning that’s brought

10 Reasons Why You Should Be Watching Marvel’s ‘Agent Carter’

features, lists, tv

I was certain I’d enjoy Agent Carter because of how much I loved Captain America: The First Avenger and Marvel as a whole, but I never expected it to become a series that’d mean a great deal to me as a woman. When I often recommend a series to someone, I make sure it’s something they’re bound to like; therefore, not every series I watch, no matter how wonderful I believe it to be is something I’d recommend to everyone — except for Agent Carter. Marvel’s Agent Carter is doubtlessly the only series I would encourage everyone to watch, especially women because of the gorgeously evocative way it can resonate with
