Werewolf By Night (2022)

 



This will be another quickie. I missed this because I have been on hiatus from any marvel content in the last year. I have been making a comeback only because of Ms. Marvel. I should write a review on that, but it would be highly biased because I have a major crush on Iman Vellani and it wouldn't be a fair review.

Regardless, Werewolf by night is a pleasant short film. It comes at a runtime of about an hour long, and is perfectly edited to introduce all the monsters it feels are relevant. There is a good 'twist' that I think most people saw coming, but one I did not so I thought that was great. The 'monster' is a welcome addition to the MCU as well and I love seeing his portrayal here. He is scary and has a great presence. Elsa Bloodstone is fun too. She is badass and mysterious, awesome in all the right ways.

I find the fact that it's mostly black and white pretty interesting. There is a 'bloody' action scene that is very reminiscent of Kill Bill. The intent behind this film is awesome, and I really wish it wasn't so crowded with the MCU downfall lately. It is a worthy entry no doubt, and you should see it if you have an hour to spare.

The comedy is dark in a silly way, the characters are vibrant, though not a lot of them survive, and it is a memorable entry into the MCU. One of the better ones atleast.

HuMan's thoughts on Marvel Comics: Ultimatum

If you ever asked a comic enthusiast what he/she thought of the Ultimatum comics, chances are they will probably have hated it, and for good reason. If you haven’t read the comic I strongly recommend for you to read it, obviously not because of how good it is but only to get a taste of what bad writing and terrible art looks like. And if you can’t seem to spare enough time for that, lucky you, I’ve got you covered, just beware mild spoilers ahead (Not that it matters though). Written by Jeph Loeb and art by David Finch, this series of events takes place in the ‘Ultimate Universe’ or Earth-1610. Ever wanted your favorite heroes to have minimal involvement in the plot and experience unnecessarily gruesome deaths? If you said yes, then you are probably an emo and are extremely edgy. Just kidding, if you are reading my blog then you are awesome! Regardless, let’s get down to reviewing. Can’t seem to think of anything but if you are interested in looking at your favorite female cha...

HuMan's Book Review: Go Suck a Lemon by Michael Cornwall

  Going through life's ups and downs one eventually in today's times resorts to self help books. Prior to this one I read The Secret. The main point of The Secret over its entire run was to think positive and to think of only good outcomes and to manifest it to yourself. Letting the power of the universe serve you. Go Suck a Lemon isn't much different. Repeating one ideal over and over again till it embeds itself into your natural thinking and instincts seems to be a pattern that works pretty effectively. However while The Secret comprehensively bombards you with examples from all walks of life and all accounts of individuals from various backgrounds who are all in their own right successful, Go Suck a Lemon is a much more personal account of Dr. Micharl Cornwall. So much so it also includes a whole chapter deticated to his down syndrome sister who taught him a good few lessons on emotional intelligence. The mantra repeated in this book is of taking ownership of our emotion...

An Ode to Video games

 Boredom can give rise to a lot of things, for me lately, an addiction to writing has really gotten to my head. So here, just a little something I ended up typing to my friend Shruti in a matter of 30 mins when I thought she was offline (But somehow wasn't): Yknow, I want something, that which i cannot say, I want something, that which i cannot describe, I want something, that which i cannot ask for, I want something, something prehistoric, something atavistic, something uncultured, Remnants of a past hobby, Withered, but present, With influence so grand, so emminent, so irresistible One that engenders shivers, goosebumps, and naive exploitable excitement A grating decay of a plane, damp sounds of battering bones and swift stabs that atrophy Explosions that stupor, stories that inspire, and zombies that devour Not trite, not grindy, but one with an end Not limited, not unfathomable, but lovable Addicting, but not degrading Reviving not enervating One that tests skills, not temper a...
