Itsy Bitsy Spider

I know its just the second weekend for new movies in 2018, but my guess is that we may be hard pressed to find a film more charming and endearing this year than Paddington 2. Days after seeing the film, I am still smiling, chuckling a bit even, and hoping the movie makes all the money it can. The original Paddington grossed nearly $270 million worldwide and earned two BAFTA nominations for Best British Film and Adapted Screenplay and a mutual consensus formed between critic, audience, and…

As my generation has grown up, it has been a trend for movie makers to make the old superhero comics and films into new and improved superhero films. In all the films that I have seen advertised, on DVD, or in theaters, a man has been portrayed as the big and strong main character/superhero and the woman has been portrayed as the “damsel in distress.” Even on the posters for the movies the guy is made to look larger than the woman even if she has the privilege to be on the poster.

directed by Sam Raimi follows the monomyth by having the departure, the initiation, the return and their respective stages within. To start with, the movie Spiderman has a clear “Departure”. In the beginning, Peter Parker gets bitten by a radioactive spider that gives him his spidey powers(Spiderman). This matches up to the call to adventure interstage as these powers give him the ability to do anything he wants. Later on, Spiderman catches a robber that killed his uncle, and it turned out…

When asked to name a favorite superhero, countless people of all ages will quickly respond with Spider-Man. Peter Parker first appeared in Amazing Fantasy #15, written by Marvel legend Stan Lee and illustrated by Steve Ditko in 1962, in an issue that explained the origin of his spider-based powers and his status as a misfit high school student fascinated by science. The art is made up of bright primary colors and thick, classic line work that makes the comic accessible and inviting to readers of…

In his defense, he lasted a grand total of fourteen hours, which, in Nino's oh-so-humble opinion, is way more than any sane person had a right to last after discovering what he discovered. Fourteen hours ago, he was perfectly okay to shrug off what he just saw. He told himself he'd be chill. Totally, one-hundred-percent chill. So what if one of his closest friends transforms into an ass-kicking, red-spandexed superheroine on a near-daily basis to defeat magical-butterfly-infected…
