Superheroes: Female Representation and Masculinity

Hi! It’s Annie! The topic of female characters in superhero films has always been a rough one; but one of the most difficult topics to cover is the expected masculinity in women in major action roles.

Theatre: Why ‘Hadestown’ Is So Good

Hey! Hallie here! Up until now I haven’t talked about Theatre at all. Which is actually weird for me because I have a college degree in Theatre.

Disney: ‘The Emperor’s New Groove’ is Underrated

Hi! It’s Annie! “You threw off my groove!” ‘The Emperor’s New Groove’ has been around for a while now and is definitely one of my favorite Disney films. It’s not every day that you see Disney dip it’s toes into a buddy film style comedy, which is exactly what happened with this brilliant movie. It’sContinue reading “Disney: ‘The Emperor’s New Groove’ is Underrated”

Marvel: ‘WandaVision’ Episode 5 Review

Hey! Hallie here! Episode 5 of ‘WandaVision’ is out and there’s so much to talk about. This was probably the best episode so far. As I haven’t found any major problems with the last few episodes, I’m going to change the categories from ‘Good’ and ‘Bad’ to ‘What I Like’ and ‘What I Have QuestionsContinue reading “Marvel: ‘WandaVision’ Episode 5 Review”
