Into the MCU: "Avengers: Endgame" (2019)

Here it is: the climax of our journey into the MCU.  The movie that 11 years of movies had been leading up to... " Avengers: Endgame "!

Well, Josh Brolin has a daughter, and she's one of the leads in Blood Bound, which is described as Rosemary's Baby meets Drag Me to Hell. That conjures up quite an image when you stop to think about it.

Micro Review: Avengers: Infinity War

I don't know what impressed me more about Avengers: Infinity War -- the fact I have to rethink my Top 10 Favourite Movies of All Time list, or Scarlet Witch's cleavage. A statement both bold and crass, but true.
