Joker
First time Oscar winner Joaquin Phoenix for Joker with the most real powerful Oscars speech for the ages. Addressing a massive amount of white people to their faces about systemic racism, white privilege, oppression, and him being apart of it. I see someone who’s striving for change and beginning to make change. Also addressing animal cruelty and lastly a few words for his late brother a legendary actor River Phoenix God bless the dead may he Rest in peace. A two time Oscar winner for best actor and best score. Difficult topics are going to be difficult to watch. If you need a check and balance system for your life, for your current statement of mind and position in life than this movie is needed.

What There Is To Gain From The Birds of Prey!
We finally have our first all-female team-up comic book film with the Birds of Prey. Honestly, I do not think people know how big of a deal this is. A film based on this premise, along with its vast array of characters has quite a future to offer. Sadly, many are already claiming it a flop, even before its release. In addition, many non-viewers want it to flop to essentially keep their fragile egos in flux. Here’s a list of what a successful Birds of Prey box-office run could give us!

Anatomy of a Scene - 'The Training' from 'Batman Begins'
‘Batman Begins’ is an excellent film for many different reasons. It has a great cast, excellent cinematography, a realistic story even if based on a famous comic book character, and also a great origin theme to it that is compelling and relatable. While we know that the idea of an ordinary man becoming a ‘superhero’ is farcical at best, the way that process is shown in ‘Batman Begins’ and the way Bruce Wayne (Christian Bale) is able to transform himself both mentally and physically into that role is really awe-inspiring when you think about it.

1917 Review
Hollywood has always popped out numerous war films throughout the years. Even as wars were still happening in the front, war films about that particular war were being produced (WWII films in particular). Audiences seem to have a fascination with these films. Whether it be for being petrified by the horrors, graphic violence, and ethical questions behind the war, audiences have flocked to these films time and time again. Whatever the case may be, 1917 certainly fits these premises. It also manages to go beyond the typical mold and create the film that we need at this time.

Parasite vs Joker: A comparison of two films that wage war on wealth inequality. Top Story - February 2020.
There is no doubt that both Joker and Parasite have created a stir in the world of cinema and very much both deserve to take home Best Picture - in my opinion they are both jarring works of art that directly point a bold finger at how people suffer as as a result of wealth inequality, but they accomplish this in different ways. In this article, I will compare Joker and Parasite and demonstrate the similarities and differences between the narrative structures and representations within these two Best Picture nominees.

Cassandra Cain Talks & It's For The Best
Birds of Prey is out in theaters now. Maybe now people can drop their nitpicky details and first-world complaints. Unfortunately, a sizeable chunk of comic book fandom does not behave that way. Going back to the trailer fan criticism has risen from the portrayal of Cassandra Cain’s character. Fans may know her best as Batgirl or Orphan. Even general audiences know this particular character never appeared in the film. However, one key aspect of character going decades back is her muteness. I dare say, it is for the best they left this out.

A Filmmaker's Review: "Who Killed Malcolm X" (Netflix, 2020)
Malcolm X is one of my favourite people in all of human history, I absolutely love the guy to bits. He is an intelligent and amazing figurehead of a movement I wholeheartedly support. He is a man who began a movement that has rippled on straight into our own time and this documentary represents why, on the whole being that he was so powerful and good at what he did, he was ultimately assassinated.

The Best Wedding Related Movies & TV Shows
Weddings. They’re seen as one of the high points of someone’s life, and why shouldn’t they be? Getting married can be the biggest signal of your love for the one other person who means the most to you in this life. So naturally, they’ve featured heavily in the media, especially in films and TV shows. Sometimes they come with humour, sometimes they come with horror, and other times (looking at you, Eastenders and all other soaps) they can come with a lot of drama. Using a wedding as a plot point can result in some fairly bad movies (looking at you, the Hangover Part II and the Hangover Part III), but there are plenty of good ones out there that can show you that maybe just having a relatively quiet wedding with little drama might be the way to go. So what are some of the best wedding representations out there?
