Apologies for the absence most of last week! It was busier than I thought it’d be. Okay, so my intention was to make Jessica Jones into another one of my Premiere Particulars, but then I started writing and I couldn’t NOT talk about the series as a whole. Because I may have polished off the whole season in a week. Continue reading

Duets: Fantastic Four and Ant-Man
Happy Friday, everybody! Remember earlier this week when I was all, “I have the best Duet pairing EVER comin’ atcha!” Well, here we are! Within just a few weeks of each other, two superhero films hit the big screen like a ton of bricks. Hmm. Maybe that’s not the best way to describe it. Continue reading
Cara’s Top 20 Superhero Movies, Pt. 2
Welcome back! Have you been on pins and needles waiting to read the rest of the Top 20 Superhero Movies List that I started yesterday (see here)? …Well, gees, even if you haven’t been you can at least nod and pretend you’ve been that eager to see it. Are you nodding now? Thank you. This is why I love you. Continue reading
Cara’s Top 20 Superhero Movies, Pt. 1
Hello, hello! Apologies for my absence on Friday, my friends. You see, I went to the first evening showing of Avengers: Age of Ultron on Thursday, and I didn’t have time to get something together for the next day. You’ll be hearing about AoU this week, but for now I wanted to do a little something else. Continue reading
Premiere Particulars: Daredevil
Marvel has broken into Netflix. So it’s official: they’re just another step closer to complete world domination. 😉 Seriously though, as soon as I heard that Marvel had made a deal with Netflix to develop four superhero shows, I was intrigued. Netflix has been on fire with their original series lately, and Marvel…well, clearly they’re not doing so bad themselves. Continue reading
Birdman: or the (expected) brilliance of magical realism and metacinema
Is using terms like “metacinema” and “magical realism” a little pretentious? If so, I apologize. I just get excited when I can use all those fancy lit terms I learned in school! Because Birdman is definitely a film worthy of fancy lit terms. This is one that I honestly didn’t expect to see for awhile. Continue reading
Premiere Particulars: Arrow
After just talking about The Flash the other day, it only seems fair to turn right around and discuss the season premiere of The CW’s Arrow. How was the season three start of the thus far awesome show based on DC Comics’ Green Arrow? Let’s talk about the particulars! Continue reading
Premiere Particulars: The Flash
Hi, friends! Had hoped to address this premiere yesterday, but, per usual, my weird schedule decided to kick me in the butt and take away all of my time and energy. However, this is one I’ve been eager to see and discuss. Though I haven’t done a series write-up for The CW’s Arrow yet (and I really should get around to that some time), I think I’ve made it pretty clear on here that I’m a fan. Continue reading
Cara’s Top 10 Stan Lee Cameos
Hey, guys! Y’know, I’ve done top 10 lists for a few blogs now, yet I’ve only done one for my own (see: this list of my TV crushes), and I find that to be kind of a bummer. So because I had nothing else planned for today and because I’m on a bit of a Marvel high after the awesomeness of Guardians of the Galaxy, I thought it would be fun to write up a list of my favorite Stan Lee cameos. Continue reading
