'Captain Marvel': What to Look For
This last weekend Marvel Studios released their highly anticipated release Captain Marvel. Hype for this movie has been building since the post credit scene in Avengers Infinity War. This is where we see Nick Fury dropped a pager as he is dusted and reveals Captain Marvel's symbol. So obviously, this is not a review as I have yet to see this movie. If you are like me and jam packed elbow to elbow theater going isn't your thing, then hopefully this will help guide you on what to look for when you do go see this movie. I am merely talking about the burning questions I have and assist in what you should watch for. So lets go!

Movie Review: 'Jezebel' Is a Slice of Unique Life
The audiences at SXSW are going to be very busy, but I do hope that many find the time for Jezebel, the feature length writing and directorial debut of actress and filmmaker Numa Perrier. This thoughtful examination of a very unique life near the bottom of the economic ladder is relentlessly sexy even as it plays fair with the otherwise sad lives of its characters.

Hilary Swank Discusses 'P.S. I Love You'
A few years ago, Hilary Swank appeared at Jacob Burn Film Center with PS I Love You. Here's a look back at the evening. On Monday, December 17, at Jacob Burns Film Center in Pleasantville, Hilary Swank appeared as part of the center's annual Silverstar fundraiser. Showcasing her most recent film, P.S. I Love You, Swank rolled in a little late to the nervousness of the audience and the program's organizers. Nonetheless, she played off the delay and let everyone easily settle into the shoes of a busy actress playing double time as promoter. "There was a lot of traffic on that little Saw Mill highway," Swank deflected and brought the audience back to a festive mood.

Thanos' Plan Explained
Hopefully, by now, everyone has seen Avengers Infinity War and is ready for Avengers Endgame to be released in April of this year. This will contain spoilers so if you haven't seen Infinity War or are caught up on your Marvel Studios movies, now is the time to turn back. Ok you have been warned what happens after this sentence is your fault. Anyways, we were left with a lot of burning questions after Infinity War. How will our heroes bring everyone back? Why did Star Lord do that? Why did Doctor Strange do that? Why didn't Thor aim for the head? Well that one is easy, to taunt Thanos while he died. Besides these questions and many, many more there is one that I think a lot of people miss. Why did Thanos wait this long and how did he do this with such swiftness? As you should know Thanos was introduced in the first Avengers movie. Thanos also appeared in Guardians Of The Galaxy. So why did he wait? Especially since he took 5 stones in a mere day virtually unchallenged. To sell more movies? Probably. However it is much more complex than that and really concretes how brilliant Marvel Studios is. So I will explain

'Avengers Endgame' Theory: Overlooked Details
So we are, less than two months away from the biggest movie of 2019, Avengers Endgame. The second part to last year's Avengers Infinity War and the final dramatic conclusion to Phase Three of the Marvel Cinematic Universe. Hopefully, you are caught up in MCU movies up to this point, if not, this will have spoilers for multiple movies. I have seen Infinity War probably 20 times at this point because it really is one of the best movies out there and how many simultaneous stories that unravel it makes the 2 hour and 45 minutes thrill-ride feel like it is 2 minutes and 45 seconds. Also, I can attest to the fact that you never realize how important the older movies are until you watch Infinity War then watch the others. I will touch on that during this nerd out. Anyways, let's get into my theory and details that get missed easily if you aren't really paying attention. This is just what I think will be crucial, this is not anything confirmed I am just going over what I have noticed in all the MCU movies and how I believe our heroes will undo the snap. If you want to go into Avengers Endgame clean slated I don't want to ruin anyone's movie experience should my theory prove true. You have been warned and anything that happens from here is your fault.

'Kill Bill Vol. 1' (2003) Review
Before you write to me angrily saying I gave this film way too low of a score, just let me explain my reasoning for the score. Quentin Tarantino is considered a masterful director and one of the best of our time. When I sat down to watch this film I had already heard loads of people praise this movie for its action scenes and linear storytelling. When I finished this movie, if I'm being honest, I was genuinely disappointed in what I watched. Yes, it was well done, the filming was extremely well done with a great assortment of shots and transitions that as a film student who has studied shot composition and filming techniques, his filming seemed quite impressive. But my big problem with this film is not the filming, it's not the actors, it's everything he did in the post/editing phase of the film.
