'Spider-Man: Far From Home' Review
While everyone was enjoying their Fourth of July with their friends and loved ones, I went to see Spider-Man: Far From Home. Usually, I would spend this day watching fireworks, but I decided that I wanted to go see a movie instead. This is the first movie review I'll be writing about, and I hope by the time you finish reading it, you would enjoy it. While Tobey Maguire will always be my favorite Spider-Man, I have to tip my hat to Tom Holland. I didn't get a chance to give him props before, but I really enjoy him a lot more. He played the web-slinging hero well, and I'm looking forward to seeing more of him. Just a heads up on a few things before I proceed any further. I love Marvel movies and the MCU, but I don't follow it as much. I'm Team DC all the way, but starting to keep up with as much Marvel-related content as I can. In this review, I'll just go thorough some parts from Far From Home that stood out to me. Please bear with me, because I haven't done a review for a movie before. Now that I've gotten that out of the way, let's proceed to my review.

'The Last Black Man in San Francisco'
I heard about this film from Jimmie Fails himself. I mistook it for another film that I went and auditioned for but turns out, it was for another title. I had no clue at first that this was something Jimmie was working on. Slowly it sparked my interest. As time went by, I started seeing Google posts online about the movie, having had won the Sundance Film Festival 2019 for the best film.

Bethany Hamilton: Unstoppable is moving and entertaining. The young lady, known once as the ‘Soul Surfer’ is all grown up, married, and a mom today. And, Bethany Hamilton is damn sure still a surfer and despite everything, she remains one of the great surfers in the world. It’s a remarkable story and one exceptionally well captured by Director Aaron Lieber. With gorgeous underwater photography and Bethany telling her own story, we get the best glimpse yet of her exceptional life in Bethany Hamilton: Unstoppable.

'What's Your Number?'
What’s Your Number is a new short film written, directed, and produced by Sigal Erez. The film is currently in consideration at many more festivals. The story is about an unlikely friendship between a Holocaust survivor and an African-American boy. Sigal wishes to turn this into a feature (the title may be called “The Pointer”) and it will touch upon the black angels during the end of World War II. African American soldiers were told to enter the gas chambers and remove bodies wearing white hazardous suits. While most people were already dead, some survived and later described that they were saved by the black angels.

'Toy Story': Old Methods and New Beginnings
In 1995, Pixar would make their feature length debut with Toy Story. A film led by the talents of Tom Hanks and Tim Allen as sentient toys that come alive when humans aren’t looking. It would be the first ever fully rendered 3-D animated film, a soon-to-be classic, a staple for the medium of animation, and a cultural touchstone of film-making.

Spider-Man's Webs Wrap Up Well
The world of 2023 is still in some chaos after the so-called “blip” happened via Thanos’ snappy fingers, leaving everyone reeling from the loss of their greatest heroes. Many believe anything they hear, and most are looking for the next “Iron Man.” For Queens locals, some feel like they might have found their own replacement. The problem is that he doesn't seem to think so, even after getting called up (and ghosting) super-spy Nick Fury.
