Second Spider-Man: Homecoming trailer

And so, it's finally arrived. The second trailer for Spider-Man: Homecoming. My quick thoughts on this is the same as the last. It looks fantastic and cool and I still can't wait to see more. I was looking forward to this all day and it didn't disappoint. Like I just said, I'm excited for more and I can't wait to see the movie when it comes out. Here it is and I hope you all enjoy.

New Spider-Man: Homecoming teaser trailer

Well, we've finally got confirmation of another Spider-Man: Homecoming trailer. It's going to be released tomorrow. And Today, Marvel released a teaser for it. It's only 7 seconds long. But still cool. It shows that the spider symbol on Spidey's chest can actually move and fly. It's so cool and I cannot wait for the real trailer tomorrow. Spider-Man: Homecoming is still my most anticipated movie of the whole year so of course I'm dying to see more. And so, here it is and I hope you all enjoy this.

New Justice League trailer

Well, it's finally arrived. The new trailer for Justice League. This has made me so happy and excited. I showed all of you the different teaser trailers for this yesterday and it's here. This trailer looks so cool and even funny. It's gotten me a lot more excited and, unlike the second trailer for Batman v Superman, it doesn't give anything away. We get to see some cool action and visuals. And so, here it is and I hope you all enjoy.

New Spider-Man: Homecoming teaser posters

With the release day of Spider-Man: Homecoming getting closer everyday, I still can't wait to see it. And yesterday, Marvel released two new posters for the film and they've made me even more excited to see it. I mean, it's Spider-Man. So of course I'm beyond hyped and these look really cool. Here they are and I hope all of you are excited to see it too.

My top 5 comic book superhero origins

Many superheroes are so cool, but, sometimes what even cooler is their origins. Some of them have some of the best ever and here I'm counting down my top 5 favourites. And these are going to be comic book hero origins and you might be surprised with who my number 1 favourite is. And so, let's begin and I hope you all enjoy.
5. Superman:

Starting us off is the origin of the most famous superhero of all time, Superman. After being born onto the doomed planet Krypton and given the name Kal-El, he was sent here to earth and uses his incredible powers. When he got to Earth, a kind old couple named the Kents, took him in and realized that he had superpowers and gave him the named Clark Kent. Years later, after the death of Jonathan Kent, Clark moved to Metropolis and to this day is always fighting crime from the evils of such villains like Lex Luthor.
4. Iron Man:

Being what you are when your Tony Stark is incredible. Money, fame and genius. But also a massive ego and being a bit of a jerk. That all changed the day he was kidnapped by terrorists and had shrapnel in his body close to his heart. The terrorists told him to assemble a missile for them or die. But being the genius he is, Tony made himself an ark reactor and a suit of armour with power. When he returned home, he had a change of heart and now fights as one of the Earth's mightiest heroes.
3. Batman:

Probably the most famous superhero origin ever, Batman's is one of great sadness. When at the age of 10, Bruce Wayne stands in horror and helplessness as both of his parents are gunned down by the criminal, Joe Chill. After they died, he spent the rest of his life and money to train to become the caped crusader and fight the same kind of criminals. When a bat flew through his window, he got an idea to use that as a symbol to strike fear into the hearts of his enemies.
2. Spider-Man:

My favourite superhero of all time is at number 2. One of the few superheroes that actually a teenager, Peter Parker's backstory is a huge drama. Being an orphaned nerd living with old aunt and uncle, Peter is bitten by a radioactive spider and it gives him spider like powers. While he may have originally used these powers to get money, after the death of his uncle and feeling responsible, he remembered the words that his uncle told him and decided to protect New York as the amazing Spider-Man.
And my number 1 favourite comic book superhero origin is... Wolverine:

And at number 1 is what I consider the great superhero origin of all time, Wolverine. When young James Howlett was born in the late 1880's, his birth father killed his adopted father, the anger inside him awakened his mutant power, retractable bone claws and the power to heal from anything. After running away and taking the name Logan, he spent many decades being young because of his mutation. Some time later, he joined a group that bonded a special metal called Adamantium to his entire skeleton and gave him new Adamantium claws. After escaping and killing everyone at Weapon X, he soon joined the X-Men and became one of it most key members. One of the most brilliant and most well told origins ever to be given to a superhero, Wolverine's is one of great pain, anger and betrayal. And this origin is also one of Stan Lee's favourite too and is my personal favourite ever. Thank you all for reading and please comment down below to tell me what you think or tell me what your favourite is.

Justice League trailer teasers

With the new Justice League trailer coming out tomorrow and a lot of people getting really excited for it like me, I thought it would be a good idea to show all of you the new small teasers for each character that was released yesterday and today. These are just small clips from the movie for each of the characters and they all look cool. Especially Batman's one. And I still can't wait for the trailer tomorrow or the movie this November. (Though, I'm still praying that it'll be good.) All right, here they are and I hope you all enjoy.

My top 5 Disney composers

So in this entry, I'm going to be counting down my top 5 favourite Disney composers and songwriters. And these will be going across all of Disney and so expect to see mostly the animated movie composers on this. Also, this is Disney only. So, even though I love Yoko Shimomura from Kingdom Hearts, she won't be on this. And yeah, without any delay, let's begin and I hope you like this.
5. Kristen Anderson-Lopez & Robert Lopez: First off at number 5 is the two people who did the songs from the 2011 Winnie the Pooh movie (which isn't a Classic, but whatever,) and Frozen. And from me mentioning Frozen, you can guess very well why I put them here. These are the songwriters who did the songs from the movie and for even over a year after the movie came out, people were still practically singing them nonstop and it's easy to see why. The songs in Frozen are so amazing and you really want to sing them over and over and over after hearing them. And a lot of that has to do with the great imagination of these two writing them.
4. Randy Newman: Next up Randy Newman. I've mentioned Randy before on a few other entries I've done and I'm doing it again here. He did the songs and music for a few Pixar movies including the Toy Story movies, some others and the Princess and the Frog, which I already said before, has some other amazing Disney music that I love. And, and I can't believe I'm about to say this, but while I don't entirely like it as much as I did back then, I still love it. I mean I've always loved them, but I liked them more back them but now I think it's just that I like others more. That being said, I still love them and I hope Randy does more Disney movies in the future.
3. Beau Black: At number 3 is the composer and song writer for the Lion Guard. I was kinda tossing around the possibility of either putting Beau Black at number 3 or Elton John who did the songs for the original Lion King or Nick Glennie-Smith who did the ones for the Lion King 2. But I decided to go with Beau Black because I think his songs for the show are really the ones I like the most and find myself singing more. And really, I think it's more because I've listened to a lot of them a lot and, while I don't love all of them, I do the majority and I think he's fantastic at these and I can't wait to see what he does next.
2. Lin-Manuel Miranda: Now at number 2 is the most recent Disney Classics composer, Lin-Manuel Miranda. As in the composer for Moana. As you all know, Moana was my third favourite movie of last year and a lot of that has to do with the amazing songs and music. I think last year's Moana is the best Disney musical in a long time. Better than Frozen, the Princess and the Frog and a lot more. As I said before, I have all the songs on my iPod and I listen to them a lot. And while I do think that the music here is fantastic, the reason he's at number 2 is because my number 1 is more well-known and famous. But still, he's fantastic and I hope he does more.
And my number 1 favourite Disney composer is... Alan Menken: And at number 1 is maybe the most famous and well known Disney Classics composer ever, Alan Menken. Anyone who's a fan of Disney Classics like me of course know who this guy is. I mean, Alan Menken did the songs and music for so many of them like the Little Mermaid, Beauty and the Beast, Aladdin, Pocahontas, the Hunchback of Notre Dame and Hercules. So basically most of the movies from the original Disney Renaissance. And he is amazing. The fact that he's been able to do so many of these in a row is really incredible. Pretty much every YouTuber who I've seen review those movies all say that he's great too. And, if you're a big Disney fan, especially those movies in particular, then you should know what I'm talking about. And everyone, those are my top 5 Disney composers. Thanks you all for reading and please comment down below to tell me your favourite. (Also, kinda unrelated thing, but the next Justice League movie trailer will be released this Saturday.)

My paintings of the Marvel Defenders

With Iron Fist out now on Netflix and I'm watching it, I thought it would be a good idea to do a paintings entry for all the heroes who are going to be in the Defenders later this year. I already showed all of you my Daredevil one and I'm showing it again. As I just said, I'm currently watching Iron Fist and as of this moment I'm on episode 8 and so expect my review for this to be coming up sometime later this week or next week. And so, without further ado, let's begin and I hope you all like these and please comment down below to tell me what you think of these. (Also I'm doing these paintings from the way the characters look in the comics. Keep that in mind.)

The Lion Guard: Beshte and the Hippo Lanes

And now we've come to the newest Lion Guard episode released a couple of days ago, Beshte and the Hippo Lanes. I don't think I was as excited for this as much as other episodes because I wasn't hearing much about it before I saw it and when I did see it last night, I enjoyed it yet again. It also focuses on something that was never that important before in the show so far, the relationship between Beshte and his father, Basi. And the connection between the two of them is really nice. And yes, I will be talking about the full story so if you don't want it spoiled and you want to see it with no knowledge of what's going to happen, go watch it and then read this. So, let's begin. What's the story? It opens up with Beshte and his father making Hippo Lanes which is going through long grass and trampling on them to make a path for the other animals. But as they're helping one animal, Basi gets his legs hurt and now Beshte has to do the Hippo Lanes himself. But now that that's happened, Makuu takes advantage of this and gets an idea to attack some zebras as they're coming. So then we get a cool song when Beshte is helping animals get through them.

After that, Kion, Fuli, Bunga and Ono help a bunch of zebras get to the other side of a cliff because a storm's coming. But as they get around the cliff, they find a bunch of rocks in their way.

But it turns out Beshte did the Lanes wrong so now the animals are confused and Makuu and the other crocodiles take advantage of this. As the zebras are going through it, they attack but then Beshte and his dad stop them.

And the ending is them all admiring the new Lanes. And that's it. Firstly, I would say the song in this is kinda the same as the past few. It's good, but just not that spectacular. It's still good though. And as I said, another good thing here is seeing more of Basi and him and Beshte together too. They're really good together. And seeing them all interacting is great. Kevin Michael Richardson is also really good as the voice of Basi and the whole thing with the zebras is, kinda annoying, but also pretty funny. It was also cool to see Makuu back as the villain after a while. I mean, I think the last time we saw him was in the Never Roar Again episode. He's back and pretty cool again. The animation in this is still incredible and the whole effects they use here are really cool like water, rain and other things like that like always. And I would say the best part of it for me is the whole scene with the end climax. That's almost always the best part of all the Lion Guard episodes in my opinion. And this is no exception. The whole ending of this is a lot of fun and the way Beshte and Basi manage to outsmart Makuu and the other crocs is brilliant. As far as what I didn't entirely like here, there isn't much, but a few things that I didn't like were, for one, as I said, I didn't entirely like the whole zebra thing with them being kinda lazy and stupid which was kinda annoying. While still pretty funny at times, it was a little annoying at times. And I would say the other last thing I didn't like as much as the rest was a bit of the middle bit of the episode. It kinda slows down a little and not a whole lot happens, which is a little strange because the middle is usually some of the best in these episodes, but here, it was a little slow and not a lot happened. But aside from that, there isn't anything else I didn't like. This is another really good Lion Guard episode and it was great to see these characters be the great characters they are like Kion and the rest again and I can't wait to see it again and I especially can't wait for the next episode, Scar's Ghost Of The Night, next month. I know that that will be a really, really great episode and I can't wait until it airs. Thank you all for reading and please comment down below to tell me what you think of this.

My top 10 Kingdom Hearts characters

As I've said before, the Kingdom Hearts franchise is full of some of the best characters I've ever seen in my life and I've talked about them so many times. And so here I'm going to be counting down my top 10 favourites. You all already know my number 1 favourite, but I thought I could also talk about my other 9 favourites in order. And I will be including all including Disney and Final Fantasy characters as well. And so, without further delay, let's begin.
10. Aqua:

Starting us off is the Keyblade Master, Aqua. Being granted the rank of Master as well as being separated from her friends, Aqua is a tortured character. While being a Master was great for her, it happened around the time everything bad that was going for them. And at the end she got trapped in the Realm of Darkness. She's been stuck there ever since waiting for someone to help her which will most likely be Riku and King Mickey as seen from the end of 0.2.
9. Leon:

The only Final Fantasy character on this list is the awesome Leon. And if you're wonder why Cloud isn't on this, it's because in the Kingdom Hearts series, I like Leon more. While as actual characters as they are, I like Cloud more, but in this series, I like Leon more. And I like how he's really cool but he also has a tiny bit of a soft spot for the others, especially in Kingdom Hearts 2. And I love his involvement in  the Battle for Hollow Bastian.
8. Master Xehanort:

At number 8 is the main villain of the entire series and one of the best villains I've ever seen in my whole life, Master Xehanort. This wise and old Keyblade wielder is what caused so many events in the series to occur. Being as skilled as he is as well as being able to set so many events in motion and had so many things in this to happen. And the final fight with him and Sora in Kingdom Hearts 3 will be amazing. I know it.
7. Yen Sid:

At number 7 is the teacher of King Mickey and a former Keyblade Master. While he didn't make much of an appearance in Kingdom Hearts 2, he was great there and he was even better in Kingdom Hearts: Dream Drop Distance. I love his kind personality and his wisdom. I remember thinking that he was a little wasted in Kingdom Hearts 2 because he was only in it for a few minutes at the start and that was it but then he was in Dream Drop Distance a lot and that was satisfying to see and then in 0.2 and I can't wait to see his involvement in Kingdom Hearts 3.
6. Ven:

While Aqua is a great character and I like her a lot, I personally prefer Ven out of the main three in Birth By Sleep. The most friendly of the three in my opinion and maybe the most sympathetic because of everything that's happened to him. He was used by Xehanort and got his darkness taken out of him, he was separated from his friends and he sacrificed himself to save them. And after all this time, it'll finally be time for him to come back in Kingdom Hearts 3 and I can't wait for that.
5. Axel/Lea:

Best friend of our hero's Nobody, Axel is full clever humour. One of the funniest characters in the whole series with his nonstop one-liners and even sorta cocky attitude, Axel has done so much to help people on both sides. And now that he's on the good guy's side and has a Keyblade and is now Lea, I know he will be one of the best parts of Kingdom Hearts 3 and I can't wait to see more of him and seeing him interact with the other good guys too.
4. Riku:

Next is Sora's best friend and the ultimate symbol of redemption, Riku. While he originally gave into the darkness and tried to fight Sora multiple times, he changed back with a change of heart again and now he's one of the most likeable characters in the series if not ever. And he's been getting better over the course of the games. He was great in Chain of Memories and was even better in Kingdom Hearts 2 and Dream Drop Distance has my favourite version of him so far and I'm willing to bet that he'll be at his absolute best in Kingdom Hearts 3.
3. King Mickey:

One of the most awesome characters in the whole series, King Mickey. While originally a character made by Walt Disney to be loved and everyone and still is, they managed to make him so cool and give him an awesome golden Keyblade. We didn't see him at all in the first game until the very end for a few minutes. And in the second game he's even cooler with having his intro being saving Sora, Donald and Goofy from Nobodies. And I especially love him during the battle for Hollow Bastian and he just throws off the black cloak and gets out his Keyblade when he thinks Goofy is dead. It's so cool and seeing him even more through the whole series has been even cooler.
2. Kairi:

Next up is Sora and Riku's childhood friend and maybe even Sora's possible love interest, Kairi. A very sweet and kind person who is the most important to Sora and it's definitely easy to see why. She's very caring, likeable and even kinda funny at times. And now that she has a Keyblade and is trying to train how to do it, it'll finally be time that we see her be really cool too and not just a clichéd likeable damsel in distress. It will finally be time to see her fight along side the others and join in the fight in Kingdom Hearts 3 and maybe you'll be able to play as her too. That would be really cool. But even besides all that, she is also just a really likeable and great character.
And my number 1 favourite Kingdom Hearts character is... Sora:

And finally at number 1 is the main character of the whole series and my personal favourite character of all time, Sora. One of the many reasons why I love him so much is because despite losing so much like his friends, family, home and more, despite losing all that, Sora can still put a big smile on his face. The same can't be said for anyone else I know. He absolutely is the light in the darkness. He always finds the good and positive in anything and is willing to even forgive and befriend almost anyone. It really does explain why his heart is connected to so many people and why so many people want to be around him and smile around him too. Everyone should look to Sora as a role model and I always will. And with Kingdom Hearts 3 coming out soon, I hope, I can't wait to see how he evolve even more. And I also can't wait to see more comedy from him too. He's also really cool in a lot of the action, specifically when he's in Drive form and he tears through the bad guys like they're nothing. But the main thing from him is his personality and care for friendship. And everyone, those are my top 10 Kingdom Hearts characters. Thank you all for reading and please comment to tell me what you think of this and if you like Kingdom Hearts too, please tell me your favourite or 10 favourites.

My paintings of Kingdom Hearts characters

So I've been thinking about doing a paintings entry of Kingdom Hearts for a while, but every time I thought of it, I was sorta worried that I wouldn't be able to like maybe it would be too hard to do a lot of these. But recently I did more thinking about it and I decided to do it. And I'm really happy with the way a lot of these turned out. Also, before we start, I need to say that these paintings will be of Kingdom Hearts characters so no Disney or Final Fantasy characters will be here. And also, these will be of characters from their first games. When you get to them, you'll know what I mean. Anyway, let's get started and I hope you all like these and please comment down below to tell me what you think.

Logan

Well, here we are. The newest X-Men movie and the final Wolverine movie by Hugh Jackman. This movie is also directed by James Mangold who last directed The Wolverine which I liked, even though it's not perfect. But I still liked it and it was awesome a lot with the action. And so having all that come back for the final portrayal of one of the most famous and iconic superheroes of all time. And, if you remember, I said at the end of last year that my movie reviews were going to be different this year. So what I'm going to do is do a spoiler free review for the first part and then I'll do all the spoilers on another paragraph. So don't worry, I'm not going to spoil anything for you in the first part. So, what the story? It opens with Logan/Wolverine as an old man in a car and he starts fighting a bunch of people trying to mess with him and he then attends a funeral. He's also driving a lot of people around all the time to get money to get pills for Charles/Professor X who he has hanging out at an old factory where he and a guy named Caliban are living nowadays. Logan is also trying to get money to buy a ship so they can leave where they are. But one day, a man goes into his car and gives him. And he also meets a woman who has a girl and she's asking him to bring them somewhere but he doesn't want to do it. The world is also much different. All the mutants are gone because of an incident that happened a year ago and this movie takes place in 2029 and now Logan and Charles have to protect this girl who may not need much help, if you know what I mean. And, I'm going to stop there. This is also the first real X-Men movie featuring Wolverine to be rated R. This movie is brutal. Oh my god. This is so much blood, limbs, decapitation, bad words and everything. I mean, they didn't hold back is the slightest. Wolverine goes absolutely berserk in this movie. All the things you seen in the trailers is just a small handful of what's really in the movie. This might be the most violent comic book movie I've ever seen as well as the most depressing. No, really, I almost cried when I watched this. It is so heart wrenching. The tone in this is very dark. The characters in this are very broken down here. Especially Wolverine. He's old, tired, broken down and beaten physically and emotionally. And it's brought to us amazingly through the performances. The performances in this are incredible. Hugh Jackman is of course fantastic as Wolverine. As I've said before, while I don't entirely see that it's Wolverine he's playing, he's always fantastic. Even in the horrible Origins movie, he's still amazing as the character and this might be his best performance as the character. He's amazing. It's even said in the title of the movie. He's not really Wolverine, he's just Logan. He's just an old man who used to have a lot of friends and adventures but now all that is gone and he's just an old man now who's trying to live the rest of his life and get through the obstacles that are in it. Patrick Stewart was also fantastic and seeing him the way he is here is heart breaking. He's a completely broken guy and seeing him the way he is here is so sad and depressing. It really is. You just want to see these two climb out of the hole they're in. Amazing performances from the two of them. Now the rest. First, Dafne Keen as X-23. She was also great. Seeing  a young girl in a serious hard R rated comic book movie like this could have been hard to do. But she really pulled it off. I really liked her as this character and she was awesome in the action. Steven Merchant was also really great as Caliban. I thought he was really likeable. Boyd Holbrook was cool as the villain, Pierce. And there's one other guy I'm not going to talk about yet until the spoilers. The film is also really well directed and edited. James Mangold absolutely knew what he was doing here. He did a fantastic job directing this. And, like I said, even if this movie is really dark, there's still some fun moments. Not a lot, but still, there is some fun to be found here. Even if it is kept at a minimum. There isn't much I didn't like here. One of the small problems I had was some of the talking. I think there might have been one too many scenes of that. And the other problem I have is something that happens at the beginning where they explain something that happened before. I'll say that in the spoilers. But, besides that, I really liked this movie. I don't know if I loved it. But still, this was a really great time at the cinema. Of course I'm recommending that you check this out.  Especially if you like the other X-Men movies. And this was a fantastic send-off to Hugh Jackman from this franchise. In fact, watch this. It's him saying goodbye from it on his last day.

So yeah, this movie is fantastic and I would easily tell you to go watch it. Okay, now, we're going to the spoilers. If you haven't seen this movie yet, go see it, then come back and read the rest. Here we go.
Spoilers:
Okay, firstly, I want to talk about the deaths. Charles dies, which I was really surprised by, but I did kinda see it coming. Still sad though. Caliban also dies which was pretty sad too because, as I said, I really liked him. And, of course, Wolverine dies. That was the part of the movie that really made me sad the most. That was the scene that almost made me cry. Especially X-23's reaction and when she said "daddy." And especially at the end with Wolverine's grave and she makes and X out of the cross. The whole comic book thing where they look through them was pretty cool. And I liked the way they got away from the Reevers the first time. I also really liked the Munson family I thought they were really likeable and it was so sad when X-24 killed them. Speaking of which X-24 was so cool as just this crazy and killing monster clone of Wolverine. The final fight with him and Wolverine was great too with them just going at each other and blood going all over the place. Now, that other character I was saying a second ago hat I didn't want to spoil was Dr. Rice. I thought he was pretty cool. Especially when he's trying to keep X-24 under control. I also really liked X-23's kid friends. I thought they were really likeable and enjoyable. There also wasn't any Stan Lee cameo. And there wasn't any end credit scene in case you were wondering. And that's my Logan review. Thank you all for reading and please comment to tell me what you think and tell me what you thought of the movie if you've seen it already.

New Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 2 TV spot

Along with the Wonder Woman trailer yesterday, Marvel released a new TV spot for Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 2. And I absolutely love this thing. It is so hilarious. I laughed out loud so much when I saw this. And so, here it is and I hope you all enjoy.

Final Wonder Woman trailer

So early last night, DC released the final trailer for the Wonder Woman movie coming out in June. And it looks pretty good. I'm still not entirely blown away, but, for what it is, I think it looks pretty good. So, here it is and I hope you all enjoy

New Thor: Ragnarok set photos

So, in the past week, a ton of new set photos for Thor: Ragnarok have been released and these pictures have me incredibly interested. They look cool and fascinating to me. And I absolutely can't wait for this. Ragnarok is one of my most anticipated movies of this year and these have gotten me more excited. And hopefully this will be a Thor movie that everyone will love. Or at least like. And so, here they are and I hope you all enjoy these. (Also, expect my Logan review tomorrow.)
