9 Ultimate Moments in Justice League that were a Joy to watch

Image
"Oh, how the mighty have fallen" Well, who would have thought that Justice League, DC comic's answer to the Avengers will make less money than the universally beloved Wonder Woman standalone movie. To my infinite disappointment it is the ugly truth. Now that even the most loyal DC fans are turning on the studio, directors, writers, and each other, what is being lost is an ultimately flawed but enjoyable movie that is Justice League. Between being directed by Zack Snyder & Joss Whedon, and made by a studio devoid of confidence in the product, Justice League finds itself in shambles, after two weekends it is about to make 500 million dollars worldwide, but that number is nowhere near what everyone would have expected and ultimately Justice League will be the highest grossing box office disaster till date.  Leaving the bad box office, messy story, & messier mustaches aside, ever so hopeful that WB & DC will rise above this I have made this list to re...

Justice League Movie Review: Joy Ride (Spolier free)

Image
Now for a spoiler free review: Justice League is a fun movie that does all of it's members Justice. While the Superman's mustache CGI looks ugly, you can get over it. Movie doesn't have any mind blowing plot twist or heavy character moments in general but it is a fast paced ride filled with joy and hope unlike BvS. There are quite a few funny moments and action is on point. Whenever I get out of a movie without ever being bothered to look at my phone once, it generally counts as a win for me. Here Batman is the badass we know and love, Wonder Woman is as graceful and charming as she has been in her previous two appearances in the DCEU, out of the new entrants I expected Jason Mamoa's Aquaman to shine the brightest but Erza Miller's Flash is the breakout star for me. He was super funny but due to the ever so present slo-mo action that has been a staple in DCEU, Superman is the one that gets the best slow motion moment rather than the Scarlet Speedster.

Does it have to be Marvel vs DC? YES!

If you take a look at the little 'about me' widget located on the sidebar of this blog, you will read me announcing that I am a DC fan, so does it automatically mean I absolutely hate Marvel and anything Marvel related, HELL NO! I absolutely love Spiderman, X-Men, Captain America, Fantastic Four, Deadpool to name a few Marvel characters. I use to watch almost all of their movies till about the Avengers came out, then I started skipping almost all of the MCU movies until Homecoming came out, cuz gots to watch Spidey! In between I also saw all  the X-Men movies including Deadpool. I am talking about going to the Movie theater at this point as I have seen almost all of the MCU movies at some point or the other with the exception of Thor 2 and Dr. Strange. So what gives why can't we all just take the high road and love all the great characters, stop being fanboys, stop trolling or debating on the Internet and just enjoying the great age of comic book movies in peace.

5 Things Present in Blade Runner's 2019 that we are still waiting for.

Image
Blade Runner is an awesome movie that presented us with it's classic neo-noir vision of the future, while it was then set up 37 years in future at the time of its release in 1982, that future 2019 (I know its still 2017)  it presented has not quite become a reality, & things are more or less a lot better(normal?) than what is shown in the movie, even though the movie shows a future that seems a bit dum and glum now but still the movie's vision of the future is pretty awesome, and here are 5 things from the movie's 2019 that we are still waiting for today: 1.   Hair Dryer :  I personally have only used a hair dryer to dry my phone to try & fix it after it fell in water (No, it didnt work) but people make it look like a chore to dry their hair & for them the hair dryer in Blade Runner could be a life saver, one of the replicants just puts her head in it for 10 seconds & BAM! she is ready. Magic! 2. Pokemon Style Video-Phones! : Yeah yeah w...
