Major Marvel crossovers continue to be set up as we get deeper into Phase 5 of the Marvel Cinematic Universe. The Woman Who Would Be PhotonThe Marvels is pretty much its own contained adventure with Ms. Marvel (Iman Vellani) and Monica Rambeau (Teyonah Parris) teaming up with Captain Marvel (Brie Larson) to save the galaxy, but that all changes right at the end of the film. In two post-credits scenes, we get a pair of game-changing revelations that answer the fandom’s questions about when we might be seeing two highly…

It’s often impossible to watch something completely divorced from the context surrounding it. Despite what some may have you believe, once you know about the controversy attached to a film or show, you can’t un-know it, and that’s going to affect how you view the finished product in question.Doctor Strange 2's Sam Raimi on America ChavezRight now, Warner Bros. is learning this the hard way with The Flash. After about two months of pre-release positive buzz, the film ultimately crashed and burned at the box office and is…

Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 3 is something of a rarity in the Marvel Cinematic Universe. While several heroes have gotten film trilogies in the saga, with the exception of Spider-Man, none of those trilogies have felt like one complete story. Stories with endings. Stories where, if the filmmaker wanted, they could—let’s say—kill a character or two. In most cases, like with Iron Man, Captain America, Thor, and Ant-Man, we expected those characters to return after their respective part threes.We Rode the New Disney Coaster…

There’s something under the bed... and in the dark, it comes out to play.
