Marvel Movie Reviews w/ Rambo - Avengers: Infinity War (2018)

  

I don't have a very solid explanation for you on why I feel like this is one of the best Marvel films in a little while, but I do. There were definitely some awkward moments as the rest of the worlds collided together (some of their meetings felt like they could've been planned better), but it also had a number of funny moments in those same instances. There were also many a number of good, meme-worthy quotes. There were plenty of fight scenes to keep us entertained. A number of sad twists making us yell at the screen to do different actions. And just as many scenes that we yelled because the choices weren't sad, they were just plain stupid! I still don't understand how it was determined who got cut though.

!!! SPOILERS BELOW !!!

• What is this intro? Is this picking up from the big ship in Ragnarok?
• There is definitely a crash scene missing in between.
• What was it exactly that he just crushed to get to the blue infinity stone? Also, I no longer remember what he did to get the purple stone.
• What does he mean he only needs 2 more stones from Earth? I thought there were 7 stones he had to collect...
• Welp, I guess no more Thor or Hulk, their ship got blown up... So much for saving Asghard too.
• How the heck did Hulk get back to Earth??
• Why does Stark have that glowing thing on his chest? I thought he didn't need it anymore?
• Oh, they discuss it... it's for protection.
• Oh, it was six stones... why do they only picture 5 though? Oh, because Strange has one...
• What in the world is going?? Did Thanos get there that quickly?
• You're really going to tell me that nobody on that bridge noticed Peter climbing out the window and putting a mask on before flying off with his backpack?
• Is Banner losing this power?
• His suit does melty nano bot things now?
• Shouldn't somebody call the other Avengers?
• How are you going to give him the new suit and then immediately send him home??
• Just Space? Really?
• THOR LIVES!
• I think Quill is jealous lol.
• And imasculated lol xD He is making his voice deeper, and they are all making fun of him.
• She seems like she knows where the Sol stone is...
• He looks human now!!
• His human form looks very much like the Resident Alien but a more sickly version of him.
• Welp, that didn't last long at all.
• What happened to Capt's hair?
• Is miss silver hair our Black Widow?? Why did they change it?
• BABY GAMORA!
• Poor, sweet, innocent, naive Gamora.
• Why is it spelled like that??
• Why does Gamora look like she is smiling when she looks at her father?
• Ooo, she got a good jab at his neck!
• It was all fake??
• Why does she want Peter to KO her?
• Warhammer looks even worse then he did the last time we saw him...
• Are those acupuncture needles?
• What did he just spew out of his hands to seal that hole up??
• Tony Knighting Spidey into an Avenger is funny/
• He can tell she is lying?
• ...Rocket shoved a prosthetic eyeball up his butt and gave it to Thor who just put it in his face... Wonderful.
• That is one giant dwarf...
• Spidey looked like Doc Oct with those extra robot legs.
• Are his eyes two different colors because of the prosthetic??
• I mean... atleast you win one? Better than losing every single time... plus now you have seen how to do it!
• Is it Sol like sun or Soul like your soul?
• So the stone isn't inside Gamora like I was thinking it would be, he kills her as a sacrifice.
• Bruh didn't even hesitate with throwing her over the edge. Can it really be called love then?
• So how exactly can Thanos hold the stones without getting hurt anyway? He isn't part God like Quill was.
• Really? You wanted a starbucks?
• Maybe they can do something to replace the stone for him.
• What the heck are these giant skewers falling from the sky? I'm sure the rest of the world had to see those fall.
• How is he not breaking something doing that?
• xD Iron Hulk just fell on his face xD
• What's up with Capt's all black outfit?
• If the shield was slowly taking them out, why are we opening the shield to fight them ourselves?
• Can't you tell him to close it before you start pouring??
• GROOT. IS. WORTHY.
• Why are we versing Demon dogs from the upside down???
• Hulk's head looks tiny in that suit.
• "Magic. More magic. Magic with a kick." Lol
• Why not just cut his hand off?
• Good job Quill. Couldn't wait like 10 more seconds.
• Now would be a great time to reverse time!
• Why in the world did he just introduce himself as Steve Rogers instead of Capt?
• "Why was she up there this whole time?" *with sass*
• Girl Power!
• Why is Hulk refusing to come out this entire movie?
• Woah, how did he make so many duplicates?
• Tony? Cursed with knowledge? How so??
• How will he get home without his suit?
• I blame Starlord.
• SHE COULD PREVENT ALL OF THIS AND JUST DESTROY THE STONE?!? ARE YOU SERIOUS?!?
• So did he or did he not snap his fingers and KO everyone?
• Oh, it's a delayed reaction. That's stupid.
• Why is it only certain people?
• I would miss Groot the most but Peter is the real tear jerker here.
• Okay, but also, what is the point of getting ride of half of all the people in the universe?
• Why is he smiling??
• So Fury isn't dead! ... Well wasn't until a second ago.
• Captain Marvel?

The WORST Experience of My Life

Hello and welcome to another post where I just put my thoughts and feelings down here so I can process what just happened. I will have to give you a bit of back story, and not many people will probably want to read this, so if you don't want to read about periods, then this is not the post for you, and that's completely fine. I have other movie reviews and gaming reviews that are some recent posts or you could scroll further back to when I was taking care of my nan.

A few weeks back, I had tried to get more of the pill I used to not have periods. I first got them prescribed at the age of 14. I think I started getting my period when I was 12, and that happened at possibly the worst place it could have more on that in a bit, because that was not the main story I wanted to talk about today.

I got these pills from a young age, and I would only really have a period when I took one late, and it was okay to have a week on and then take the pills, but the older I got, the worse they were. So if I missed a pill, I would take it when I realised and just continue taking them the next day. This was okay for a few years. I would have a day or two of bleeding, and then it would stop, but the more this happened, the worse it got. If I missed one a couple of years down the line, I would have a period for about two weeks.

That brings us up to a few weeks ago, I made an appointment because they wouldn't give me a repeat prescription, this was a phone call appointment and It rang while I was in the bathroom and it only rang twice so I couldn't even run to pick up the phone, they did not try to call back and I understand they are busy but you have to wait more often than not longer for them to call because they are running behind, I know I have waited an extra half an hour because they were running so behind and they ask the same questions every time. Once I had to take one of those phone calls while in the middle of a shop; it was kind of embarrassing, but hey, I survived that.

Anyway, because I missed this phone call, they did not get back in contact with me, and they sent an email to my GP. That's fine, I thought, except it wasn't, it was not accepted until a month later, to that point, I had already run out. The pain didn't hit me all at once until it was a Thursday, and that's when I could not get out of bed. We were in a heat wave in the UK at the time, so a hot water bottle was out of the question since my room was already so stuffy. I was using ice poles (or icey pops for my American friends) on my back and on my stomach. I was melting these ice poles, so much so that I almost debated getting a freezer in my room to make it so much easier. The pain was like lightning shooting up my back, so I spent about 48 hours in the fetal position, not wanting to be alive because I had never experienced anything like this before. I do not wish to experience anything like this again. The pain was a 12/10, and I really wish I was exaggerating, but I could not stand up for more than a minuet I tried to make some toast and ended up with warm bread because I could not wait for it to toast because standing was just awful.

I would not wish this on my worst enemy.

I said I would tell you about the time I got my first period because I probably will never do another post about this topic lets just get it over and done with all in this one.

I was 12 I think and I was staying with my nan and dad for the weekend, my dad had gone out to an emergency call so it was just me and my nan, I went to the bathroom and there it was a big red stain in white underwear (cause it always has to be the white undies) I didn't know what to do, I called my mum and just sat on the toilet. I was so scared to tell my nan what I had just experienced. Eventually, my mum convinced me to talk to my nan, and I don't really remember the conversation, so it must have been very awkward. She ended up taking me into her room and she had a really old box of whats known as pantie liners (I think they should be called something else I hate the word pantie) they are a smaller version of a pad (maybe they should be called mini pads) it did the job okay until I came home where my mum gave me a leaflet about periods and that was that. 

Thank you so much for giving me the time to read about something I never thought I would put on the internet, but here we are. If you are a young girl around the age when you may get your period soon, my advice is, get some pads now, put a few in each bag you use regularly, and you shouldn't have to have any weird, awkward conversations with your grandparents or friends' parents because it can happen at any moment, really. I don't want you to be scared of it happening, as it is a part of life, and we have to deal with it, so it is far better to be overprepared than unprepared. I have a little section in each bag with tissues, a small packet of wet wipes, and ibuprofen or some sort of painkiller. You got this! Have a great rest of your day, and I will see you next Friday with another review of some sort. Take care. :)

Marvel Movie Reviews w/ Rambo - Black Panther (2018)

  

This is the start of another set of movies I have been putting off because I did not like the things I was hearing about it. For the most part, I am happy to say the things I was hearing about it were wrong, but I am saddened to say I still did not fully enjoy the movie. For as long as it was there was not much actual story to it, I feel like it was a lot of filler details about the people and their journey and we were not seeing much of how that fits into the MCU in this moment because it is an introductory character film. The other big thing I did not enjoy was this outsider from the states that comes and attempts to take over the kingdom. I have no words for his demeanor other than he is everything that is wrong with this movie. I hate him.

!!! SPOILERS BELOW !!!

• I'm confused, what is vibranium?
• This actor looks familiar for some reason...
• What is that blue on his lip?
• Two questions, how long after the previous king dying is this movie? And why does younger brother look older than the Panther brother?
• So the answer to how long is a week.
• We meditate to fly the plane?
• How did their technology get so advanced? Why doesn't the rest of the world have flying trains?
• Why does he care about the history?
• Why does he want the Wakanda tool?
• What did he put in her drink?
• Why would she take somebody else's drink anyway?
• Did they steal the ambulance and uniforms too?
• Why are all the warrior women bald?
• Do black panthers have spots?
• That looks painful.
• Why do none of them want to challenge? I would think they would all want a chance at the throne.
• He does not look fit enough to fight him.
• So if he has a black panther mask and they harness the black panther power, does this other tribe harness whatever animal their mask represents?
• Why do the guards keep getting closer?
• "Don't make me kill you" is a bold statement, as you are hanging further over the edge than he is.
• Why are we burying him?
• It's giving Simba and Mufasa talk vibes.
• Was his eye always lazy?
• I know it has something to do with their culture but I will never understand why you would want that big round disk in your lip like that. It looks like it could be very painful and problematic.
• That's kind of cool that they can merge their calls together instead of having duplicate visuals.
• Did Wakanda care about the item being in the museum? They definitely care about it being stolen from the museum, that is for usre.
• It seems weird to me how advanced they are technologically and yet they still choose to honor their tribal traditions both in attire but also the dueling ceremonies and such.
• Was that meant to be a play on the what are those vine with shoes?
• How hard were you expecting him to hit it?
• That is a lot of vehicles pulling up at once, not very conspicuous.
• He was keeping it in his trousers?
• So much for not wanting a shootout...
• I thought she wasn't allowed to go? Also, why does the inside of the car look like it isn't actually there?
• Her sliding up in the seat like its a go kart was funny.
• OH! She wasn't actually there! The car was virtual! How was he riding on top of it then though?
• Pause, what is Capt's shield and the iron man suit made of again? Is it vibranium?
• Why does he assume he is an outsider? How else would he have known that it was a real Wakanda item in the museum?
• Do you think he is going to take this information back to the CIA and tell them about all of it?
• Does she know he doesn't know how much vibranium they have?
• If he is one of the CIA's then how does he have the Wakanda markings?
• So they are cousins?
• Is there a difference between the small raised areas and the long raised areas?
• Wait, so is it the bumpy skin guy who got cancer and died? I thought it was the guy he just threw over the cliff...
• So if the original bumpy skin leader did not care to fight the black panther king, why was he so proud of this guy for doing so?
• They were so worried about the sister not honoring tradition and yet here we are with this a hole who is burning everything.
• This guy is part of the problem, not the solution and that is sad.
• Has mom's hair always been white like that?
• So much for offering that plant to the ape king for assistance.
• Oh, so NOW you want to support the original king because you can see he is still alive... wow.
• Where's the blood spatter?
• OH! The sister is the Build-A-Bear we had in store!
• Why is the suit not pushing the force back out again like it did when he hit it?
• Wow, he almost gave his life for Wakanda, taking out that ship with the weapons.
• She is very fierce running in front of the rhino like that.
• Aww, he let him experience the sunrise.
• That is nice of him to try and make right by their wrongs, help the next generation.
• Why is their first thought to rip it apart and sell it?
• I mean, wasn't Wakanda already working on coming out of the shadows with his father going to discuss the Avengers initiative?
• How did the sister go from spearheading the tech initiative in California to being wherever she is now?
• IS THAT BUCKY?? How did he get there?? I thought he was frozen??
