6 Things I Want to See in Avengers: Doomsday

We’ve got two new Avengers movies coming up starting late next year, so we’re a ways off. But I was giving Doomsday some thought the other day and realized I’d never done a List of Six on what I hope to see in the movie. I used to do these a lot for Marvel films. So here we are for my own personal hopes and dreams for Avengers: Doomsday in late 2026.

I’m still a major Marvel fan. Say what you will about me, but I’m still loving pretty much everything Marvel is putting out. I cannot fathom how anyone can say the Marvel products are “garbage”. They’re maybe not all amazing and phenomenal, but the films and TV shows are still well-made and very entertaining. I can’t wait to rewatch Thunderbolts* when it comes to Disney+, and Fantastic Four: First Steps is expected to be a highlight of the rest of my year.

So can Marvel make themselves a billion dollar movie-maker again with Doomsday and then Secret Wars? I’m more than willing to find out!

Ironheart is Only Two Weeks Away!

Ironheart is the next Marvel TV show on Disney+ and it comes out on June 24 — which is only two weeks away! I’m relatively excited. Nobody in the greater internet seems to have any faith in this show, but such was also the case with Agatha All Along and that was great! So I’m definitely keeping my expectations level for Ironheart.

Looks fine to me. I liked Wakanda Forever because I like pretty much all these Marvel Studios projects. I’m no hater. So I’m looking forward to Ironheart. With Andor, Doctor Who and The Last of Us over, I don’t have any current TV shows that I’m watching live each week. So bring on Ironheart!

I hope they establish some connection between Riri Williams and Tony Stark, even if she’s just inspired by him. Or are they just going to ignore that she’s building her own Iron Man armor and naming herself Ironheart?

Ironheart is Coming Soon!

The Ironheart TV show will arrive on Disney+ next month, and Marvel has finally put out a full trailer for the show! I think it looks good and I’m definitely going to watch.

I thought Ironheart was fine in Wakanda Forever, and I’ll watch anything Marvel puts out, with an open mind. I didn’t have much faith in an Agatha Harkness TV show, but Agatha All Along was really fun! Even Echo was entertaining. So you best believe I’ll watch and hopefully enjoy Ironheart.

The first half of the show will come out on June 24, and then the second batch of three episodes will come out in July.

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.
