MCU Vs Comics: The True Origins Of The MCU Infinity Stones
There are few objects in Marvel comics more powerful than the infinity stones. These six gems are each imbued with the energies of separate fundamental forces of the universe: space, time, mind, soul, reality, and power. On their own they are extremely dangerous, but when assembled they effectively grant the wielder unlimited power. Many would-be despots have sought this lofty goal, the most famous among them being the mad titan; Thanos, who sought to use these stones to wipe out half of all life in the universe.

Alright so as soon as this movie was over I decided that it needed to be two separate reviews because although it is a Marvel movie it had too many independent film qualities to ignore. So this is the review of Black Widow as if it were simply a stand alone film.
Alexandrea CallaghanPublished 2 years ago in GeeksShang-Chi Review
The release of Shang-Chi brings many milestones for Marvel, the first Asian superhero movie of course, but what Shang-Chi opened the door for was so much more than a statistic. Shang-Chi had one of the biggest box office openings of any Superhero origin story as well as setting up even more opportunities for phase 4.

Привет Камрад! Let’s talk about Черная вдова, Black Widow (I hope I did that correctly, if not then please correct me I have been studying Russian in the recent months and am giving it shot, but I digress).
The Complicated History of Captain Marvel
Captain Marvel has not always been a woman, or even a Marvel character or a DC character. Captain Marvel has been around for more than 70 years, and the story behind the name and the characters is as interesting as some of the stories they're in.
My Review of "What If: Season One"
What If: Season One has just finished up in 2021. It started airing right after the Loki: Season One. This wasn't done by accident. Everything all somehow eventually makes sense in the Marvel Cinematic Universe (MCU) at the end. What If is no exception. It's very different but that's what's great about it.

After the success of Christopher Nolan’s The Dark Knight, both audiences and filmmakers were suddenly aware of how popular a serious superhero movie could be. The main takeaway seemed to be muted colours, angst, and gritty storylines would equal more serious, and thus more money. However, that same year, the MCU began with the widely popular Iron Man, which was bright, colourful, and funny, but still dealt with some harsh ideas, such as PTSD, survivor’s guilt, and corporate corruption. Though this would be the main way in which the DCEU and the MCU would differentiate from each other, The Dark Knight did open the door for darker and more adult comic-book movies such as Kick-Ass and Super. So, when Sony was looking to reboot the Spider-man franchise after the dismal reviews for Spider-man 3, they decided to try something a little grittier and more realistic, resulting in The Amazing Spider-man.

Hawkeye appears to be the next show on the MCU Disney+ roadmap, and fans have been skeptical, to say the least. While Hawkeye has never had a particularly huge following from MCU fans, that may change soon, because Marvel and Disney just released the trailer for the series on Monday, and it looks good. If anyone was on the fence about the show, the trailer just might tip the scale. Not only does it show off what is in store for Hawkeye in the show, but it is also chock-full of Easter eggs, references, possible villains, and Christmas cheer.

With its Chinese-born star, exploration of Asian culture, and box office success in the United States, it looked like Shang-Chi and the Legend of the Ten Rings would be a hit in China. Due to its large population, U.S. films that are released there often make large amounts of box office receipts. However, China heavily regulates which U.S. films get released in the country. And prior negative comments by a person associated with a U.S. film looking to be released in China will often stop the film from being released in China.
