WARNING: This Article May Contain Spoilers For me, Brie Larsson – much like her character of Captain Marv-El – was an unknown quantity. This isn’t a negative though, as I think sometimes if I know the actor before they take on a specific hero role I can be quick to judge how good or bad …

Singer to Actor: Ice Cube
WARNING: This Article May Contain Spoilers I’ve never truly been the kind of person that’s into rap music. Yeah, I listen to a bit of Eminem every now and then but honestly, Ice Cube has never made it on to one of my playlists. If it wasn’t for the film Straight Outta Compton, where a …
Death of the Token Minority
WARNING: This Article May Contain Spoilers I’ve used the term ‘lost trope’ because, for all intents and purposes, it is rare to find a film nowadays where the non-white character is killed off first. Obviously you have the outliers like Scream 2 (and a couple of recent films mentioned below) but I think in a …
Rear Window vs Disturbia
WARNING: This Review May Contain Spoilers I’m going to start this by being completely open with you all. I know I usually keep the personally opinion until the end but I went in to this already believing that Disturbia was never going to be as good as Rear Window and I wasn’t disappointed. No, this …
Captain America AKA Chris Evans
WARNING: This Article May Contain Spoilers Now, I know what you’re all going to say and that’s that Captain America isn’t the first Marvel hero that Chris Evans has played because he was the original Flame Boy (of my generation anyway). However, Captain America is the more significant role of the two and he made …
Singer to Actor: Queen Latifah
WARNING: This Article May Contain Spoilers Like a few of the singers that will appear in these style of articles, I was never a fan of Queen Latifah’s music growing up. I don’t know if this is a hint towards only certain types of singers decide to go into acting or just because I was …
Versus Films
WARNING: This Article May Contain Spoilers I wanted to take the opportunity to get a little bit silly, and go through some of the films where it has been decided to pit two villains from separate film franchises (or characters made up just the sake of it). It’s almost like they have decided to create …
Kiwi Horror
WARNING: This Article May Contain Spoilers I’ll be honest, there isn’t much more I can say in regards to Kiwi horror than I did for Aussie horror a few months back. Maybe being from the same part of the world has caused this side-effect but as we all you know – you should never compare …
Wolfsbane AKA Maisie Williams
WARNING: This Article May Contain Spoilers I think I better get this out of the way here and now as I can’t write an article about Maisie Williams without mentioning Game of Thrones. Like another actress included in the ‘Before They Were Marvel-ous Heroes’ section of this blog, this is where Maisie’s career began – …
Singer to Actor: Donnie Wahlberg
WARNING: This Article May Contain Spoilers We’ve discussed one brother already and now it’s time to talk about the other. If it isn’t obvious, Donnie is the older brother Mark ‘Marky Mark’ Wahlberg. He is also one of the founding members of still-going boy band (I guess they’re now a man band) New Kids on …
