Hawkeye Review

  Hawkeye Review WARNING: SPOILERS  by Akshat Agarwal When Die Hard came out, it sparked a debate whether the Bruce Willis action movie could be counted as a Christmas movie.  It obviously is (you can see gift exchanges, snow, a redemption arc, an office holiday party), but every year there will be those losers who think it isn’t.  I predict that this kind of debate will begin to pop up over Hawkeye. Is it a Christmas series? Absolutely it is. Besides being about family and doing what is right, there are appearances by the Rockefeller tree and an office holiday party. If I am being very honest, I didn’t really have high expectations for Hawkeye, but then again I don’t think anyone really did. Interestingly, Marvel made efforts to address this in the show. The show was very good, but not Spider-Man good. I’d say it was a solid 7/10. Let’s get into what was great and what wasn’t. 1)   KATE BISHOP- GREAT To the joy of many fans, particularly fanboys, Hailee Steinfe...

No Way Home Review WARNING: SPOILERS  by Akshat Agarwal I don’t think I hate a movie quite as much as I hate NWH, just because I can only watch it for the first time once.  I’m not exaggerating when I say that it is literally the best Marvel movie ever and honestly one of the best movies of all time.  Before I get into the nitty-gritty, let’s check which predictions were right and which one’s weren’t. Also, I will be distinguishing the multiple Spider-Men (yes, there were multiple) by using their actors’ names. 1)   ANDREW AND TOBEY   Right off the bat, I was very wrong about these two. They are very much in the movie and it is way more than 20 minutes of screen time.  I honestly cannot think of another time when I was this happy to be wrong. From the minute these guys enter, the movie excellently blends these characters’ stories together. Tobey and Andrew both portray the best parts of their Spider-Men and their interactions with each other and T...

Spider-Man: No Way Home Predictions by Akshat Agarwal Pre-Viewing Thoughts:  I am writing before I watch Spider-Man: No Way Home to share my predictions.    SPOILER ALERT: My guesses are so good, it might as well be the actual movie. Check out my predictions below 1) ANDREW AND TOBEY Andrew and Tobey are NOT in the movie. As cool and exciting as it would be to have them in the movie, I just don’t see it happening. We’ve been seeing all the hype around this, but the actors themselves have repeatedly asserted that they have not been contacted about the movie. Honestly they attested to this so much that you start to feel bad for Andrew. He’s out trying to promote Tick, Tick, BOOM! and everyone’s harassing him about this movie. I know a lot about NWH has been hush hush but they’re not in it *In the case that I am very wrong and they are in it, I think it will be a short cameo in a post-credits scene or something along those lines.  No more than 20 minutes of screen tim...
