I love the first season of the Loki series. That’s why I’m hyped for season two. The first episode only increased my excitement. The second episode however, somewhat disappointed me. I do love however, media that shows potential and doesn’t quite deliver on it. It makes me think about what I would change. And that’s …
A desert. The most intelligent minds of the country assembled in rustical housing. The place locked down by the military. Finally, an event that profoundly changes the world and all those who live in it. This description fits the setting of two movies.

As I walked out of the theatre of Avengers: Endgame for the fourth time, when I had finally processed what had happened in the last 10 years of storytelling within Marvel, I was left wondering: What’s next? The so-called phase 4 of The Marvel Cinematic Universe started slow due to a pandemic meddling with filming …
Spoiler Warning The following opinion is my first impression, after watching Dr. Strange in the Multiverse of Madness only once.

Whenever I think about efficiency in story telling one scene from Pirates of the Caribbean comes to mind. It happens relatively early in the movie. Jack Sparrow – I’m sorry – Captain Jack Sparrow has fled from his shenanigans at the Porte Royal harbour into Will’s forge. Will on the other hand just arrived back …
