I didn't get to see Captain America: Brave New World when it was released last week, so I'm going to see it today. From the comic books to the movies and the show, I've been a big Sam Wilson fan which is why I'm so happy that he got be Captain America on screen. I can't wait to see this movie, it has Captain America trying to save the day to stop a huge global problem. So far, I have managed to avoid spoilers. Another movie I'm going to watch later today is the Hallmark movie Sisterhood, Inc.. It follows as a big sister who is trying to makeover her younger sister's life. And while doing that, she unexpectedly finds love.
I can't wait to watch both movies, they just seem so fun and interesting.

What movies are you watching this weekend? There are two I want to see: It's a Wonderful Knife and The Marvels.
I'm not usually someone who is remotely interested in Christmas this early but I do want to see It's a Wonderful Knife. It's a horror comedy that's a take on the classic holiday film, It's a Wonderful Life. As for the second movie, I have been waiting to see The Marvel ever since it was announced. It has Captain Marvel, Nick Fury, Spectrum and Ms. Marvel all in one movie, how can I not want to see this?
It's a Wonderful Knife
Starring: Jane Widdop, Jess McLeod, Joel McHale, Katharine Isabelle, William B. Davis, Justin Long, Aiden Howard, Erin Boyes, Sean Depner, Zenia Marshall, Jason Fernandes, Hana Huggins and more
Director: Tyler MacIntyre
Writer: Michael Kennedy
Description:
After saving her town from a psychotic killer, Winnie Carruthers' life is less than wonderful. When she wishes she'd never been born, she finds herself in a nightmare parallel universe where without her, things could be much, much worse.
I had been meaning to post the teaser trailer for The Marvels movie which is why I'm doing it now. This trailer looks amazing. Four of my favorite characters in one movie, how could I not want to see this? It looks like a fun sci-fi comedy action adventure. I wish it was released this summer instead of on Friday, November 10th but I can patiently wait.
Everything about this trailer is so cool and amazing. You have Captain Marvel, Spectrum and Ms. Marvel stuck in some sort of power activated teleportation thing going on. And not to mention Nick Fury is in this plus Goose, again how could I not want to see this? Okay, who else is excited to see The Marvels?
The Marvels
Description:
Carol Danvers gets her powers entangled with those of Kamala Khan and Monica Rambeau, forcing them to work together to save the universe.
Happy Saturday! What are your weekend movie plans? There are two new movies I want to see: Ant-Man and the Wasp: Quantumania and Welcome to Valentine. Although the trailer for the Ant-Man movie still feels like a Star Wars movie, I really am interested in seeing it. As for the second movie Welcome to Valentine, it's a romantic comedy set around a road trip.
It's so cold today, I'll have to make sure I bundle up before I go out to the movies but I'm seeing Ant-Man and the Wasp: Quantumania today I already have my ticket. And this evening I'll be warm and cozy wrapped up in a blanket watching Welcome to Valentine. So, what movies are you watching today?
Ant-Man and the Wasp: Quantumania
Starring: Paul Rudd, Evangeline Lilly, Michael Douglas, Michelle Pfeiffer, Jonathan Majors, Kathryn Newton, Bill Murray, Katy M. O'Brian, William Jackson Harper, James Cutler, David Dastmalchian, Randall Park and more
Director: Peyton Reed
Writer: Jeff Loveness
Based On: characters created by Jack Kirby for Marvel Comics
Description:
Scott Lang and Hope Van Dyne, along with Hank Pym and Janet Van Dyne, explore the Quantum Realm, where they interact with strange creatures and embark on an adventure that goes beyond the limits of what they thought was possible.
Apparently, today is the day for trailers to be released, first is Transformers: Rise of the Beast and now Guardians of the Galaxy vol. 3. After all the fun and happiness in the holiday special, this upcoming third movie looks like it's going to have an emotional impact with the story.
I do wonder if any of the other Sovereign (from GotG vol 2) will appear or is it only just Adam Warlock? Either way, this looks really good. As with Transformers, I can't wait to see this, Guardians of the Galaxy vol. 3 is scheduled to be in theatres May 5, 2023.
I totally have mixed feelings about this trailer for Ant-Man and The Wasp: Quantumania which the movie will be in theatres on February 17, 2023. First impression, it feels like I'm looking at a Star Wars movie with Marvel characters. Second, I love the film score or orchestral music that's playing throughout the trailer (I don't how I completely disregarded the song that was playing).
Second, I love that Michelle Pfeiffer continues to be in the Ant-Man and MCU movies as Janet Van Dyne. And third, it doesn't look that interesting. Maybe it's better than what's shown in the trailer. I know they're trying to get more into the sci-fi world of the Ant-Man stories but I think what really worked for the MCU Ant-Man was him dealing with more grounded or small adventures. I'm usually one for sticking with more comic book elements but this just feels like a scrapped Star Wars screenplay that was reworked for Ant-Man.
Ant-Man and The Wasp: Quantumania
Description:
Scott Lang, Hope Van Dyne, Hank Pym and Janet Van Dyne explore the Quantum Realm and embark on an adventure that goes beyond the limits of what they thought was possible.
Black Panther: Wakanda Forever is an absolutely stunning teaser trailer. I love that it also feels like a tribute to Chadwick Boseman because the late actor really did an amazing job of portraying King T'Challa/Black Panther. And I hope this movie will both honor him and showcase all the other equally amazing characters. I can't wait to see Wakanda Forever (and not to mention Namor and Ironheart are in this), it's scheduled to be released Friday, November 11th.
Happy Weekend! Do you have any plans for the weekend? Do any of them include watching new movies? Well, I have two for you: My Grown-Up Christmas List and Thor: Love and Thunder.
Although, I'm not even remotely in the Christmas spirit but I know a lot of you who are, there's a new Hallmark Christmas movie premiering tonight. My Grown Up Christmas List is a romantic dramedy that centers on the relationship between Taylor and Luke that grows over time. Since, I'm not a Christmas in July sort of person, I'm going to tape this and watch it later.
As for the second movie, Thor: Love and Thunder, I really want to see this movie. I know I was being a little negative about it when the teaser trailer was first released but I've since changed my mind about it. And I really do want to see it, however, I won't be able to see it today since I didn't buy a ticket in advance and the theatre is sold out for today and tomorrow. I'm going to try and see if I can go sometime during the week or next weekend. So until then, I'm going to have a mini MCU marathon throughout the week where I'll watch all three Thor movies and the two Guardians of the Galaxy movies.
So, what movies are you watching this weekend?
My Grown-Up Christmas List 8:00 PM EST Hallmark Channel
Starring: Kayla Wallace, Kevin McGarry, Cory Lee, Colton Royce, Susan Hamann, Lindsay Merrithew, James M Jenkinson, Dave Rose and more
Director: Andrew Cymek
Writers: Bryar Freed and Shawn Riopelle
Based On: the song My Grown-Up Christmas List by Amy Grant and David Foster
Description:
Taylor Nichols, a journalist, and Luke Luke Malone, in the military, share a special bond that grows between them over the course of several Christmases that they spend together and apart.
The more I see of Thor: Love and Thunder the less excited I am about seeing it. I don't know, it just doesn't seem that interesting to me. I know I'll never get Shakespearean, intellectual Thor again but I was hoping that the MCU wouldn't keep dumbing down Thor.
I don't know, maybe Thor: Love and Thunder will surprise me and it'll be a good movie but so far the trailers (teaser and official) have done nothing to pique my interest. The movie will be in theatres Friday, July 8th.
I have mixed feelings about Thor: Love and Thunder. The trailer looks good but I feel like with each movie Thor has appeared in, he has lost an aspect that once made him who he was. And now it really seems like the once Mighty Thor is nothing more than a galactic buffoon. I also have mixed feelings about Jane becoming Thor, I've had the same feelings every since it happened in the comics. And that's because it seems like that's only way writers can think of to make characters who don't have powers seem "interesting" when they already are is by giving them powers.
I'm a Thor fan, so I'll probably go see this movie which is released in theatres July 8th. But I guess I miss Thor how he used to be instead of mainly being comedic relief.
I'll be honest, I kinda forgot Morbius was coming out. But I'm glad I found this trailer which surprisingly looks good. I have to admit it's totally piqued my interest in wanting to see it. Anyone else planning to see this movie?
Morbius
Release Date: April 1, 2022
Description:
Biochemist Michael Morbius tries to cure himself of a rare blood disease, but when his experiment goes wrong, he inadvertently infects himself with a form of vampirism instead.
Although, the MCU Spider-Man is not my favorite version of the character, I am actually excited to see Spider-Man: No Way Home. And that's mainly because the story seems more interesting than first two movies. I also like that this movie will feature so many of the other characters from the other Spider-Man movies. I can't wait to see this movie, it'll be in theatres on Friday, December 17th.
Description:
With Spider-Man's identity now revealed, our friendly neighborhood web-slinger is unmasked and no longer able to separate his normal life as Peter Parker from the high stakes of being a superhero. When Peter asks for help from Doctor Strange, the stakes become even more dangerous, forcing him to discover what it truly means to be Spider-Man.
Somewhat recently, I wrote that I thought the Eternals trailer looked boring and that I'll wait until the movie is released on DVD to see it. I've since been thinking that maybe the movie is better than what's shown in the trailer and I'm interested in seeing it. However, I'm still not going to the theatre to see it only this time the reason is I have a slight cold and I don't want to sit in the theatre (of course wearing my mask) not feeling my best. So, I'll wait until it out on DVD/Blu ray to see it.
Anyway, who's going to see the Eternals? To anyone who is going, I hope the movie is really good and you have a good time as well.
Eternals
Starring: Gemma Chan, Richard Madden, Angelina Jolie, Salma Hayek, Kit Harington, Kumail Nanjiani, Lia McHugh, Brian Tyree Henry, Lauren Ridloff, Barry Keoghan, Ma Dong-seok and more
The Eternals, a race of immortal beings with superhuman powers who have secretly lived on Earth for thousands of years, reunite to battle the evil Deviants.
As good as Spider-Man: No Way Home trailer looks, I'm starting to wish Disney/Marvel/Sony would start making non-canon or non-connecting movies and TV series so they can move on from this timeline. Then the timeline won't continue to get jumbled up or have to include an explanation as to why certain characters didn't help or why certain events happened or didn't happen. I think it would be interesting if they started doing more standalone movies.
However, I am interested to see how Peter and Doctor Strange will fix this mess they've gotten the world into. Spider-Man: No Way Home will be in theatre Friday, December 17th (as of now). How excited are you to see this movie?
The trailer for Shang-Chi and the Legend of the Ten Rings looks amazing. I wish I still wasn't nervous about going to the theatre. Although, I will be fully vaccinated before then I'm still leery about going but I really want to see this movie which will be release in theatres on September 3rd.
When I look at this trailer and think of this movie, it feels just as groundbreaking as Black Panther was. It's still so bittersweet that the TV series Kim's Convenience had abruptly ended with the fifth season but I'm so happy that Simu Liu is starring in this movie that I can't wait to see.
It may have taken forever for a Black Widow movie but this teaser trailer looks awesome. I can't wait to see the movie, it's scheduled to be released May 1, 2020. I'm not sure of the timeline but I believe this movie takes place between Captain America: Civil War and Avengers: Infinity Wars.
Anyone else loving all the different uniforms/suits that Natasha is wearing throughout the trailer? With each movie she got a new suit and it looks they made sure to give her a bunch of cool new suits to kick butt in. Even though it's still disappointing that Natasha was killed off in Avengers: Endgame at least we have this movie to look forward to. And it looks like it's going to be good.
Okay, who doesn't have tickets to see Avengers: Endgame?
Well, I don't. My local theatre is completely sold out for this weekend and since I didn't pre-order my tickets, there's no point in even trying to go this weekend to see it. Maybe I'll go during the week but until then I will do my best to avoid spoilers.
Avengers: Endgame
Starring: Robert Downey Jr., Chris Evans, Mark Ruffalo, Chris Hemsworth, Scarlett Johansson, Don Cheadle, Paul Rudd, Brie Larson, Karen Gillan and more
Directors: Anthony Russo and Joe Russo
Description:
After the devastating events of Avengers: Infinity War, the universe is in ruins. With the help of remaining allies, the Avengers assemble once more in order to undo Thanos' actions and restore order to the universe.
Wow, I didn't realize Spider-Man: Into The Spider-Verse had won so many awards including an Oscar. I think that's fantastic! It's so cool to see an animated movie being appreciated like this. If you're a Spider-Man fan and haven't seen this movie, please see it. Even if you're not a Spider-Man fan, you should see this movie because it's has a good story and it's fun and colorful.
So, see this movie, if you haven't.
Spider-Man: Into The Spider-Verse
Description:
Teen Miles Morales becomes Spider-Man of his reality and crosses path with five counterparts from other dimensions in order to stop a threat for all realities.
The anticipation is killing me, I can't wait to see this move. But I might have to wait little longer because I checked my local theatre it looks like this weekends' shows are sold out. That's good news but I won't be able to see it unless I go to another theatre or wait until I go during the the week to see it.
Captain Marvel
