Late post... but some of the movies we watched over Christmas Eve and Christmas Day...
And one of our new favorite movies:
And one of our new favorite movies:
Captain America- The First Avenger (2011)- When I first heard about this movie, I was not impressed with the idea. I thought it was an overly patriotic theme, and that the world had no interest in being entertained by such a super hero. Well, it turned out that I was wrong, Marvel pulled this off in 2011. Captain America is a favorite character. And on a side note although I remember a Captain America in my youth, I was ignorant of the publishing history of Captain America which started in 1940 during WWII.
Captain Marvel (2019)- Top 10 Marvel Story.
Carol Danvers memory is jogged to remember her past as a USAF pilot. The story does a good job of misdirection, even though most Marvel watchers should generally recognize the Kree as not the good guys.
Iron Man (2008)- The first major marvel movie that put Marvel and Robert Downey Jr on their incredible trajectory. I was sad that this was the only appearance of Terrance Howard as Rhodey.
Great movie, for me this one and Captain America were the best of all of them
aaaw - you only like it 'cos Brie Larson is in it 🤓
Iron Man fights the forces of evil.
Aluminium Man foils their plans …
Honestly, I've never heard anyone say that about this film.

Not a movie to which I can easily return (like F.Gump), but an enjoyable 1st-time rental; to be sure.
Brie (when she wasn't talking) certainly helped with my review
Watched this a second time.
Double Feature night, Alligator (1980) and Alligator 2, The Mutation (1991). Just as bad as you could imagine but quite enjoyable with the appropriate level of inebriation and friends.
Besides the obvious “hot” element, I love her portrayal as arguably someone who rivals Thanos in physical power. In fact, the first time I saw this, I claimed she was overpowered. Anyone who can fly though a Kree warship (Dark Astor Class) like it’s butter might be unstoppable. 🤔

Thor (2011)- Great performances, the first and most serious, grounded Thor, establishes Loki as an authentically conflicted evil villain, even if it’s not entirely his fault. Natalie Portman’s on screen presence, her character’s romantic fascination with Thor is palpable. Idris Elba as Heimdal is amazing. The entire town where Thor confronts The Destroyer is a damned good set, wonderfullness all around.
