Many fans loved Letitia Wright’s wisecracking, genius princess since the first Black Panther film. But I didn’t expect Black Panther: Wakanda Forever to transform Shuri into one of the best characters in the entire Marvel Cinematic Universe, complete with a poignant arc that both mirrors and contrasts the development of Chadwick Boseman’s T’Challa. Shuri has endured an incredible amount of tragedy
Read MoreThere’s a lot that to be said about how the Andor series has been excellent in its writing, cinematography, production design, soundscape, and themes. Audiences have been drawn to the stakes, to the realism, to the fear and the hope. There’s action, there’s mystery, there’s betrayal, there’s humanity, and there are twists. It’s a complex, enjoyable series and assuredly well-crafted. Not
Read MoreNamor has finally made his MCU debut in Black Panther: Wakanda Forever. Seeing that the villain turned anti-hero of the sea is one of the oldest Marvel characters and technically the first mutant from their comic world, it seems only right to finally have him arrive in the MCU. So in honor of his arrival, I thought the King of Talokan

Following his untimely passing in August 2020, it became one of
Read MoreIt’s finally happening: Marvel Studios is taking a Disney+ original series and turning it into a movie! Armor Wars is doing a reverse Hawkeye, going from a six-episode “special event” series to a theatrical film. Given Marvel’s intricately planned phases and several upcoming films already fighting for release dates, this is a major switch-up no one saw coming. Remember when it
Read MorePhase 4 of the MCU has been criticized for its seeming lack of a clear plan and little crossover between individual projects. Yes, everything is building towards two massive Avengers movies, but what about the smaller crossovers in between? Phase 4 may be like Phase 1 in the sense that it’s laying the groundwork for The Multiverse Saga, but it still
Read MoreThese Black Panther claws pastries (our twist on a bear claw recipe) are the perfect way to celebrate the premiere of Black Panther: Wakanda Forever, in theaters on November 11th. The Black Panther may have claws of vibranium, but I guarantee the people of Wakanda would love to have some of these too. These sweet pastries are the perfect way to
Read MoreSpooky season is finally coming to an end with Halloween officially here, but the season of giving is just around the corner. November brings with it Thanksgiving for those in America, discounted Halloween chocolate in every store, and for fans of HBO Max’s Titans, part one of a brand new season.
