Villainess Review: Lily Mahoney and Susan Loures (A Baby at Any Cost)
I was looking forward to this film for quite a while, and I finally got to see this on Lifetime Movie Network while also enjoying some playoff action in the NHL. The film centered on Monica Hunt, who (along with husband Brad Hunt) welcomed a baby daughter, Olivia, via a surrogate, Lily Mahoney. Enter Monica's sister, Jen Perry, who joins in the celebration, but she voices her bitterness over not being chosen as the surrogate. As we quickly learn, Jen has her own set of problems; she is in the midst of a bitter divorce from her ex-husband, Sam (who is an absolute piece of work), who is not allowing Jen to see their daughter, Ruby.

The Good: Tony Stark (Iron Man): While most (all) leaders would flounder to attain Tony Stark’s dynamic blend of charismatic confidence, intellect and cyberespionage, he does impart a notable template of how to function as a professional, while remaining exceedingly personable and also outrageously riveting. One of the fundamental lessons from Tony Stark, is how to adapt, learn and then overcome. This is demonstrated in Iron Man 2 and then in The Avengers. We see Tony’s suit get ravaged when entangled in Whiplash’s electricity, yet when zapped by Thor’s thunder, the suit absorbs, converting it into devastating weaponized energy. He’s not encountering identical troubles twice! Additionally, Stark is a source of inspiration for his invaluable propensity for transforming every minute into a productive and triumphant one, and whilst sleep deprivation is not recommended, it sure did help Tony to construct multiple contemporary suits of armour, all with different capabilities to handle anything from bomb disposal to assistance in natural catastrophes, whilst he wrestled with the emotional trauma of almost perishing on a distant planet. Repeatedly our own leaders are criticised for not having a plan B or C, and in some unfortunate circumstances of haplessness, a plan A! Well, Iron Man always comes with a contingency programme. Whether that is summoning a fleet of iron suits to assist in a skirmish, manufacturing a nimble way to get in and out of his armour or developing profoundly durable Hulk resistant armaments should the notoriously unstable green machine rage violently out of control (which inevitably happened in Avengers: Age of Ultron). There are more than a few ways in which Tony Stark exhibits desirable leadership skills, and it cannot be argued that having him in power would lead to a technologically advanced, perpetually prepared and ultimately, more entertaining society!

Marielle SabbagPublished 4 days ago in GeeksDisney Theories: Snow White
1937. The year that ultimately started the long time running franchise called Disney. While the original story of Snow White was far more gruesome, Disney did keep a lot of originality in said story. The Brothers Grimm surely knew how to write a chilling story. In Walt's take, Snow White is seen as a young teen whereas the original she was only 7 years old! To start, I suggest looking into the differences of the tales, because using them can help change theories into canon.
