Film Review: Thor: Love and Thunder

Everyone’s favourite Norse superhero is back after a few years since he went off with the Guardians of the Galaxy at the end of “Avengers: Endgame”. This time Thor teams up with different heroes to defeat another new threat, one that specifically wants him killed. “Thor: Love and Thunder” is a very funny, slightly over-the-top and action-packed but emotionally charged adventure, which is a new direction for the MCU but continues to expand on the God of Thunder’s journey. Read my full review of it here.

These “Ten Rings” of representation talk through the different ways in which it helps to combat the under-representation and negative light in which many Chinese and East Asian characters are portrayed on screen.

Film Review: Black Widow

After more than a decade in talks and production and a year later than its original release, “Black Widow” has finally been released. A much overdue origin story focusing on Natasha Romanoff, played by the ever-popular Scarlett Johansson, will this be a fitting end for her character’s era in the MCU as she comes face-to-fist with her troubled past?

TV Review: Loki

“Loki” is the next long-awaited Disney+ TV series to be released this year after “WandaVision” and “The Falcon and the Winter Soldier”. A fan favourite character despite his tendency to be a both a supervillain and an antihero but always cocky and nearly always self-serving, what will the narcissistic but lovable “God of Mischief” get up to in this TV show centred on himself?
