Black Panther: Wakanda Forever Representing Communities of Color

This week, we got an early sneak peak of Black Panther: Wakanda forever. This all-new Marvel film will undoubtedly flood theaters today, because there is so much to look forward to.

After the tragic passing of Chadwick Boseman, there was much speculation as to how the saga continue. To my pleasant surprise, the film adapted a new storyline that is creating a huge buzz among Marvel enthusiasts, and people of color. The Latinx community is overjoyed with the implementation of Namor (Tenoch Huerta), and the Mayan culture.


Watch the trailer here.

There were many emotions surrounding the death of both T”Challah and Boseman, (he has two Screen Actors Guild Awards, a Golden Globe Award, a Critics’ Choice Movie Award, and a Primetime Emmy Award, among other accolades).

Synopsis:

Queen Ramonda, Shuri, M’Baku, Okoye and the Dora Milaje fight to protect their nation from intervening world powers in the wake of King T’Challa’s death. As the Wakandans strive to embrace their next chapter, the heroes must band together with Nakia and Everett Ross to forge a new path for their beloved kingdom.

Black Panther: Wakanda Forever takes viewers on an action packed adventure. It gives us a closer look at the Mayan indigenous culture in the Marvel World.

Are these two powerful forces friends or foe? There are so many unexpected twists and turns that you don’t want to miss!. Go see it in theaters today!

New Chilling Marvel Film: Doctor Strange In the Multiverse of Madness

New Chilling Marvel Film: Doctor Strange In the Multiverse of Madness

Earlier this week, we attended an early screening of Doctor Strange In the Multiverse of Madness. This new Marvel Studios film takes audience on a wild ride and adventure as it takes us into different worlds and realms.

Legendary horror film director, Sam Raimi (Evil Dead) brings this comic book blockbuster to the big screen. This sequel is not your typical MCU movie, as it is full of fright and definitely on the darker side. As a huge horror film enthusiast, I was ecstatic to see a little gore and creepiness in a Marvel film.

This new film also introduces Xochitl Gomez as America Chavez, a fan favorite from the Marvel comic universe. Drew and I love her!

Thank you Marvel Studios for inviting Queen Bee Latina to screen Doctor Strange In the Multiverse of Madness. All my opinions are my own.


Watch the official trailer here.

Synopsis:

Dr Stephen Strange casts a forbidden spell that opens a portal to the multiverse. However, a threat emerges that may be too big for his team to handle.

With not giving too much away, our beloved Wanda Maximoff, also known as the Scarlet Witch, is traumatized and faced with a decision that could destroy many. In the new film, Wanda no longer inhabits Westview, however, she continuously is visited by her sons nightly in her dreams. Every morning, she wakes up to her worst nightmare. The question is, what is this distraught mother willing to do for her family? (or not so real family)

Raimi’s signature style, kinetic camera work, and his dark and witty humor shines through in this unique MCU film. His work rarely disappoints, and this film is worth the spine chills.

Go see Doctor Strange In the Multiverse of Madness in theaters today!

This film is rate PG-13 As it maybe too scary for little ones.

Movie Review: AVENGERS ENDGAME

Written By: Vanessa Bañuelos-Dawson

Whatever it takes.

Walt Disney Studios and Marvel Studios do whatever it takes to give movie and comic book
fans the proper ending to an 11-year arc of its treasured universe with AVENGERS: ENDGAME.

Sure to be one of the biggest grossing films in both studios’ history, ENDGAME directly picks up after super-villain Thanos’ (Josh Brolin) iconic snap in Avengers: Infinity War (2018). Released
nearly a year after Infinity War, Endgame doesn’t waste time getting to the heart of the most monumental questions: Where do we go, and what do we do after Thanos’ snap?

Earth is a now a completely new place for the Avengers team. The survivors, lead by Iron Man
(Robert Downey Jr.) and Captain America (Chris Evans), are faced with challenging
tasks–grieving and moving forward. Forward is a different direction for each of the surviving
Marvel characters. Ultimately, a plan is devised that puts everything on the line in true
superhero fashion.


Director-brothers Anthony and Joe Russo’s Endgame is a true gem. It is a nod to the truest
Marvel fans, and a wink to the fans of the standalone Avengers movieverse. It’s not necessary
to cram all 21 Marvel films into your Blu-Ray player in preparation, but it certainly gives you the
chance to be nostalgic for all the moments that are timeless in the Marvel universe. Believe me,
there are too many to count, and Endgame is the senior-year yearbook everyone is waiting for.
Stan Lee would be proud.


Audiences have pondered all sorts of endings to this Avengers series, and in the end it is
straightforward and complete. The journey of your favorite character may not be what you
anticipate, but that is where Endgame’s humanity lies. Everyone lost someone after Thanos’
snap. Everyone will do whatever it takes.


Endgame will have its moments where you will laugh at a clever inside joke (the film is loaded
with them) and in the next minute cry every tear you thought you had (there will be many times for that too).

It’s incredible to know that the end is near, as this arc ends with Spider-Man: Far From Home,
releasing July 5, 2019. Disney and Marvel have a wealth of opportunity for the future. After all,
the end is a new beginning.


AVENGERS: ENDGAME releases in U.S. theatres on Friday, April 26.
