Despite only four years passing since her first big-screen adventure and her presence in the behemoths that were Avengers: Infinity War and Avengers: Endgame, it somehow feels like an eternity since we last saw Carol Danvers aka Captain Marvel. Perhaps that's a testament to just how much Marvel Studios content we've consumed in that time. After battling against online trolls and "review bombing," 2019's Captain Marvel stormed to $1.1 billion at the worldwide box office and it seemed a new leader of the MCU had emerged. Rather than immediately throwing...

Almost ten years ago, Marvel Studios' biggest gamble delivered one of its finest achievements. When Guardians of the Galaxy was initially announced, no one really expected all that much from an anti-hero movie starring that chubby guy from Parks & Recreation, a WWE wrestler-turned-actor, an anthropomorphic raccoon, and a walking, talking tree. Against the odds and with its expert mix of heart, humour, and action, James Gunn's masterpiece was a total breath of fresh air. After a successful but slightly disappointing 2017 sequel, Gunn's hopes to wrap up the trilogy were dashed...

Kudos to Marvel Studios for sticking by its heroes. When the MCU began over a decade ago, no one ever really expected the tiny titular hero Ant-Man would be given his own stand-alone film, let alone two of them. With Captain America and Iron Man now fading further in the distance and the first two Ant-Man movies earning a combined total of $1 billion at the worldwide box office, we've arrived at the third outing of nobody's favourite Avenger. While there's a kooky, psychedelic feel to Ant-Man and the Wasp:...

The tragic death of Chadwick Boseman in 2020 left Marvel Studios in an unenviable position without an easy answer. Boseman was the very heart and soul of their gargantuan 2018 critical (seven Oscar noms, three wins) and commercial (over a billion dollars worldwide) hit, Black Panther. Given a sequel was already greenlit, how could they possibly continue this franchise without the man who was now synonymous with the titular role? Recasting T'Challa felt like an affront to Boseman's memory. Nor would you be likely to find many actors willing...

After 28 films over the last 14 years, it's highly likely you've made up your mind on the Marvel Cinematic Universe by now. For those still completely on board with the most successful film franchise in cinema history (and, judging by the staggering box office returns of Doctor Strange in the Multiverse of Madness, that's a lot of you), it's time for film #29 and the second of three MCU titles in 2022. For better or worse, Thor: Love and Thunder follows a very similar formula to that of...

After more than a decade of films that mostly followed the same tried and true formula, Phase Four of the Marvel Cinematic Universe seems determined to offer something different, particularly its commitment to completely shattering the notion of reality by virtue of its newfound obsession with the "multiverse" concept. Disney+ shows like WandaVision, Loki, and What If...

It's not every day a press screening includes surrendering one's phone before entering a cinema featuring security guards in night vision goggles and a title card and preshow video from the cast begging viewers to avoid revealing spoilers to the general public. Then again, it's not every day a film like Spider-Man: No Way Home comes along where revealing the colour of a character's socks could be seen as a spoiler in some circles. With a level of hype unrivalled in 2021 and a hefty bag of secrets no...

One of the biggest criticisms lobbed at the Marvel Cinematic Universe is its persistence with sticking to the tried and true "Marvel formula." In most Marvel Studios films (particularly first outings of new superheroes), we meet our down on their luck protagonist who soon discovers their hidden superpower which attracts the attention of some ungodly antagonist who forces our new hero to overcome insurmountable odds and ultimately save the day. Now that you've read it, you can see how many Marvel films it applies to, right? To be fair,...

A new film from the Marvel Cinematic Universe opening in theatres around the globe is surely a sign the world of cinema is beginning to return to some sense of normalcy. After three release date delays and a change in strategy that sees the film debut simultaneously on Disney+ with Premier Access, Marvel Studios' long-awaited prequel Black Widow has finally arrived to give a fallen hero her deserving swan song. Part James Bond spy thriller, part Mission: Impossible action epic with a good dose of tense familial drama, Black...
