Thor: Love and Thunder are setting records and making MCU history in
Thor: Love and Thunder are setting records and making MCU history in front of its July release, which goes a long way past it being the first time an MCU solo legend has gotten the fourth film. Its presentation trailer dropped just 82 days before the film's release (a historically short advertising window), and it figured out how to acquire the fourth-most views ever for a trailer released on the web.
NEET RANGERSPublished 2 years ago in GeeksFinn & Poe - A Star Wars Tale
Beginning with the initial announcement of the Star Wars Sequel Trilogy, back in October 2012 by the Walt Disney Company, fans have had a series of conflicting opinions. After a progression of negotiations, George Lucas allowed Disney to acquire Lucasfilm, citing reasons for retirement. This deal would end up being one of the most controversial/splitting decisions in the eyes of the fans who would later view it as an absolute, definitively determining if the Sequels were good or bad. It’s especially dividing when one considers the fact that Disney disregarded George Lucas’s own plans/ideas for the sequels. But whichever way your opinion falls for the Sequel Trilogy, it’s likely that you Poe Dameron & Finn. Two characters from the core trio (Rey being the last member) whose relationship with each other boomed in popularity just from the initial trailers for ‘The Force Awakens’. A large portion of the audience instantly found this pair to be incredibly endearing and the idea of them possibly being romantic took off sensationally fast. This even extended past the general audience, thanks to the kind & open nature of ‘Star Wars’ actors Oscar Isaac & John Boyega, they were not afraid to share and encourage speculations of their characters' sexualities. StormPilot, as Finn/Poe is commonly referred to, has brought one of the most public/popularized discussions of LGBTQA+ representation and is wonderfully hard to ignore.

Trevor WellsPublished 2 years ago in GeeksDocumentary Review: 'Stu's Show' is a Documentary about Showbiz, Love and Healthcare
Stu’s Show begins as one kind of documentary and ends as something completely different, richer, and more thoughtful. What looks like the story of a Hollywood outsider who became an unlikely ally and friend to the stars of the Golden Age of Television, slowly morphs into a harrowing story about our modern Healthcare system and the people on the fringes of society who are forced to struggle and risk death to get the care they need from an often uncaring and indifferent healthcare system.
Sean PatrickPublished 2 years ago in GeeksMovie Review: 'The Unbearable Weight of Massive Talent' is the Funniest Movie of 2022 So Far
The Unbearable Weight of Massive Talent stars Nicolas Cage in arguably his greatest role, playing himself. Rather, I should say, Nicolas Cage is not playing himself but the pop cultural conception of who we think Nicolas Cage is. Nick Cage, if you will. This conception of Cage as a bizarre egomaniac obsessed with his own fame, struggling with money, and deeply weird is built on some foundations of truth, gossip, and the perceptions created by Cage’s many iconic film performances. It’s an utterly brilliant meta-creation that gives audiences the Nicolas Cage we want while distancing the actor from our perceptions with a layer of creative irony and detached humor.
Sean PatrickPublished 2 years ago in GeeksThe Northman and the Meteoric Rise of Nordic Fantasy
The fantasy genre has been on an interesting journey since the turn of the millennium. In the 2000s, it was all about traditional Tolkien-style fantasy, spearheaded by the Lord of The Rings trilogy from Peter Jackson. For years, it would set the blueprint for big-budget epics going forward. At the turn of the 2010s, a new sub-genre entered the scene, Nordic Fantasy, which hails from Scandinavian society. While it utilises similar elements, namely a mixture of swords and sorcery, this version is defined by its setting and elements of real history.

Jason Ray MortonPublished 2 years ago in GeeksTitanic, the Ship of Dreams: A Marxist Criticism Approach
The film begins with Brock Love, a treasure hunter, leading a search for a rare diamond necklace known as the Heart of the Ocean, but they are unable to locate the necklace. Instead, they discovered a drawing of a girl wearing the necklace they had been searching for. Rose Calvert was brought aboard Shekel, the research vessel, and began to talk about her experiences on the Titanic. The retro scene began with a crowded and ecstatic crowd waiting to board the magnificent Titanic, which included first-class passengers Rose Dewitt Butterfat, her mother Ruth, and his fiance, Caledonia Hockney. Rose contemplated suicide by jumping from the ship's rail, distressed by the engagement. She met Jack Dawson, an impoverished artist who demoralized her and kept her from going off the rails. As a reward, Cal Hockney invited Jack to supper with the first-class passengers. Rose and Jack formed a tenuous connection after the dinner, despite Ruth and Cal's reservations about him, and Rose secretly joined a third-class party with Jack. Rose initially denied Jack since she was aware of her fiance's and mother's displeasure, but she subsequently discovered that he preferred him to Cal. She took Jack into her state room and asked him to draw her wearing only the diamond necklace Cal had given her. Following their escape from Cal's bodyguard, they observed the ship collide with an iceberg. Rose, on the other hand, saw Rose's disrespectful note and decided to smuggle the jeweler into Jack's pocket with the help of his security, Mr. Love joy. With that, Jack was handcuffed and taken to the master-at-arms' office. Rose, on the other hand, declined to board the lifeboat with her mother and instead decided to save Jack. They rejoined with Cal after saving him, and together with Jack, they encouraged Rose to board the lifeboat. Rose jumped in the middle as she lowered her lifeboat to return to Jack. They returned to the boat deck after overcoming various hurdles, and the ship split in half. Jack assisted Rose in boarding a wooden panel that is only buoyant enough for one person in the water. Rose did not live long since he practically froze to death, but Jack did, thanks to his strong heart. After the Old Rose threw the Heart of the Ocean into the sea, Rose was reunited with Jack in the Titanic's Grand Staircase while being applauded by the people who died in the disaster.
