6 Thoughts on Thunderbolts* (Review)
The second of three Marvel movies hit the big screen this past weekend and I was right there opening night, like the good old days! I was very excited for Thunderbolts* and I’m very happy to say that it mostly lived up to my expectations. Part of me wanted more from the movie, but only in the sense that it was already good and I just wanted more of it to enjoy.
Movie Rating: 8/10 – Very Good
I will admit that Thunderbolts* was not the rip-roaring good time I was hoping for, and that’s OK. This was a darker, more somber movie, while still having bits of fun and great action. It’s not the second coming of the Avengers — despite the title/marketing change. I still had fun with this one, and I bet it’s going to grow on me over time. I really want to go back and see it in the theaters for a second time.

6 Thoughts on the First Season of Daredevil: Born Again (Review)
It’s a shame that Andor has already started because I’ve already stopped thinking about Daredevil: Born Again. Heh. But still, I’m here to talk about my thoughts on the first season of the new Daredevil show. And like the Marvel Zombie I am, I enjoyed the season, though I don’t think it lived up to the hype.
TV Show Rating: 7/10 – Good
I watched and enjoyed the original three seasons of Daredevil when they came out on Netflix. I binged them just like everybody else, and I enjoyed all three seasons. I’m not the biggest Daredevil fan, but I’ve read a lot of his comics and I’m always in favor of more Marvel entertainment. I’ve definitely been fully on board with bringing back the original actors to revive the Netflix show. I just wish it had been a little stronger.

Our year of new Marvel content has begun, with Captain America: Brave New World kicking off an entire 2025 of new movies and shows. I’m super excited! I remain a diehard Marvel fan, and there’s very little that’s going to knock me from my perch. Judge me if you will, but I really enjoyed this fourth Captain America film.
Movie Rating: 6/10 – Pretty Good
Falcon and the Winter Soldier is probably my second favorite of the Marvel Studios TV shows. I thought it was an awesome show, with great themes, characters and more. Exploring African American history through the lens of Captain America was a great idea, and I think that show pulled it off nicely. So I was very much looking forward to Sam Wilson getting his own Cap movie. And while I know a lot of people are sour on this movie for some reason, I had a blast.

More than a week has passed since the final episode of Skeleton Crew, and it’s sad how little of an impact this show has had on pop culture. I guess not a lot of people were watching? Which is a damn shame, because Skeleton Crew is a great show that had a lot of fun in the Star Wars universe! I had a blast!
TV Show Rating: 9/10 – Great
Like everyone else, I find Star Wars TV to be hit and miss. I haven’t outright hated any show, but wasn’t too impressed with Ahsoka or Obi-Wan Kenobi. I had no idea what to expect with Skeleton Crew when it was announced and teased for years; I barely paid any attention. But that first trailer piqued my interest and I’m happy to have watched every episode week-by-week. This is one of the good ones!
