Spider-Man: Far From Home (2019) – Peter Parker / Spider-Man (Tom Holland) Spider-Man: Far From Home is coming to theaters and with it the very first interracial relationship in the MCU. This is a problem. For all the studio’s promises of diversity, they’ve fallen way short in this area. First, they took forever to bring one in. Then they dropped it. Finally, they’ve shoe-horned one into the movies without explanation. Mixed couples were literally illegal at one time. Now the numbers have expanded to about 15% in the US. As recently as the 1960s, movies with interracial love stories faced…

Black Leather Jackets sent us a shirt for review. While the styling is nice, the fabric is not what I expected. Black Leather Jacket sent us a shirt styled after the “Quantum Realm” suits seen in Avengers: Endgame. It was used to allow the team to go back in time.

And we early on decided [revealing them] was a big differentiating factor between [Endgame] and the other films,” Marvel Studio head Kevin Feige told io9. “The Avengers have never had matching outfits…

Dark Phoenix (2019) is a bad movie, but not in the way you’d expect. In some ways, it’s better than X-Men: The Last Stand which came out 13 years ago. In some ways (most ways) it’s worse.

If you haven’t seen X-Men: The Last Stand (2006) it was an attempt to adapt the beloved comic book storyline known as the “Dark Phoenix Saga”. It started in Uncanny X-Men #101-108 (1976–1977) and written by Chris Claremont, Dave Cockrum, and John Byrne. That’s the story where Jean Grey aka Marvel…

 Late last year, it was revealed that Marvel Studios is “fast-tracking” a movie about Shang-Chi and making the first Marvel movie with a lead Asian character. This is pretty awesome and could change the face of Asian representation in American films.The only problem is that Shang-Chi is racist. Very racist.

I’m a huge fan of the character, but some improvements would make him even better.First, I’ll talk about the history of Shang-Chi. Then, I’ll talk about how Shang-Chi was born during the “Yellow Peril” era. Finally,…
