Movie Review – Trolls Band Together
—
For such tiny Trolls, these little cuties have a huge hit on their hands. I was not really looking forward to doing the Peetimes on Trolls Band Together. Dreading it is a little closer to how I felt honestly. I’m happy to report that I was wrong. From the very beginning to the end of…

TL;DR The overall direction of the MCU is a mess. It appears that events in this movie were force-fed to the writers, leaving them…

Movie Review – The Marvels
And so we come to the 33rd film in the Marvel Cinematic Universe. The Marvels is a bit like a mini-Avengers in that it isn’t single character lead.
