X-Men Apocalypse Review

I know what your thinking Dr. Deklan the Almighty why are you doing a review on a non Avengers movie. Because I was going to write something about Quick Silver toady but then I though about the X-Men movie witch I suggest seeing and how awesome it was especially with Quick Silver. So now here is my review of X-Men Apocalypse.

Non-Spoiler Review
So this movie is about how Apocalypse rises and tries to take over the world and to take over the world Apocalypse must recruit his 4 horse men of the Apocalypse. But once Charles finds out that Apocalypse is coming. Mystique assembles the new X-Men including new students and old X-men. Now Go see the movie

Spoiler review 
I liked this movie and I thought Quick Silver and everyone else was awesome. I really liked the Horse Men of the Apocalypse besides Angel I think that is his name it doesn't say his name on the cast list or the actor of him on the cast list . I thought all these movies were confusing because of the order they are making them in. I really liked the backstory about cyclopes and I liked how we got to see the young X-men. Also I liked how Quick Silver found out magneto's his father. If I could be one of Apocalypse's horse men I would want to be three of the four of them besides angel be cause he grew wing out of his back and crap and there was metal and it look liked it hurt. But mainly Magneto or Psylocke but a green thing instead and imagine controlling metals that would be awesome

Civil War II Review Pt 0 (Comic)

I got Civil War II comic book and after I read this I wanted all of the comics but sadly they only up to part 2. I really loved this comic but it was short. 

Here is the quick summery to civil war II Pt 0. SPOILERS AHEAD. I got all of the comics at B.A.M . 

It all starts off in a court room with she-Hulk debating about whether some guy should go to jail. Then we see War Machine/ Rhode is in Latvia for some reason it didn't say but it said something about global terrorism. Then we see Rhode's is in the White House situation room talking with the president about becoming president possibly and offering him a job as secretary of defenses. Then we go to a collage one guy is trying to ask a girl out and then this terrigen mist it is basically a thing were it can give humans In Human. powers  comes and takes two people and it was the guy that wanted to ask out the girl and the girl the guy wanted to ask out. Then we go to the tri-skelion with captain marvel (Girl Version) then a bunch of talking between this one guy and her that isn't useful. Then we go to the helicarrier and she-hulk is there and Maria Hill is now the director and they talk about the one guy that went to jail and then she-hulk found of he died. Then we are back at the collage and one of the cocoons hatch and it is the one guy that wanted to ask out the girl. The other one hatches and it is a demon thing and then the the guy's eye's go red and then it the end.

I suggest getting this comic and the rest of them. The guy that wanted to ask out the girl his name is Ulysses and the terrigen mist gave him the power to see into the future. Also there can't be a civil war without teams. The team's are Team Iron man and Team Captain Marvel. Captain marvel thinks we should arrest people before they do anything. Iron man says you can't arrest someone for not doing anything wrong. I am personally with team Iron man again (Because I was with team iron man in civil war) because it true you can't arrest someone for not doing any thing. Write in the comments below who's team you are on.

Summer Stuff 'n' Things

This summer, One man, One computer, A bunch of comics and a lot of typing. This summer you can expect review's about comic books and superhero characters.

Avenger's Age Of Ultron Review

Forgot to post from 05.01.2016



When Tony Stark (Robert Downey Jr.) jump-starts a dormant peace-keeping program, things go terribly wrong, forcing the Avengers to reassemble. As the fate of Earth hangs in the balance, the team is put to the ultimate test as they battle Ultron (James Spader), a technological terror on a hunt for human extinction. Along the way, they encounter two mysterious and powerful newcomers, Pietro and Wanda Maximoff also know as Scarlet Witch and Quicksilver.


I would rate this a 5 D-Stars because all the Avengers movies deserve a 5 D-Star rating. They are awesome. One thing I think they should've done is make Ultron sound a little more robot like. What I liked about this is that we start to see a feud between Stark and Cap.That is how Civil War starts, with a little fight but then the fight gets bigger between them in Civil War I hope. Team Iron Man is the best. 



Mom's Thoughts: "I liked seeing the gang all together again, the chemistry between Black Widow and Hulk, and the twist with Hawkeye. I also liked seeing the return of an old friend. The rest of it was a lot of fighting and bleh. I hope Civil War lives up to all the hype."



Guardians Of The Galaxy Review


Forgot to post from 04.28.2016

Peter Quill (Chris Pratt) finds himself the quarry of relentless bounty hunters after he steals an orb coveted by Ronan, a powerful villain. To evade Ronan, Quill is forced into an uneasy truce with four disparate misfits: gun-toting Rocket Raccoon, treelike-humanoid Groot, the daughter of a mad titan Gamora, and vengeance-driven Drax the Destroyer. But when he discovers the orb's true power and the cosmic threat it poses, Quill must rally his ragtag group to save the universe.

I would rate this movie 4 D-Stars. I liked this movie because it is a different movie like for marvel there is only avenger and stand alone movies. I liked this one because it is from space and it doesn't tie into any of the other movies right now. Another thing I liked is that this movies will be a big tie in to the other movies. I can't wait to see Peter's dad. Another thing while I was getting a picture for the post I saw that Chris Pratt will be in Avenger's infinity war.


Mom's Thoughts: "I saw this movie once before but I didn't get it. Watching it in order and context, it made so much more sense. Even though I like Chris Pratt, I thought it was confusing and not as cool as the other movies."

AMS Spring Concert

When I was on my trip in Jamaica, the AMS had a concert and I am reviewing it. I am going to review each song and the overall concert.

Ode to Peace
This song was arranged by Jill Gillian. It was composed by Ludwig van Beethoven as part of his Ninth Symphony.

I thought this song was sang very well. They harmonized and the split worked very well, but from the camera perspective it looked like some kids weren't singing. But overall it was terrific.

Shule Aroon (Siuil A Ruin)
This song is believed to be from 17th century or early 18th century. It's about a women whose love has enlisted in the Irish army.

This is one of my favorite songs. I think the soloist did great. I did not like the lady that walked in front of the camera or that after Donovan finished his solo some kids were laughing at him. 

Cat Meow Song
This song is officially known as the "Duetto buffo di due gatti" ("Humorous duet for two cats"). This piece comes from the opera "Ottelo."This song was done very well. The two side worked together. I thought the cat fight part was good, but I am confused which side was the loud cats and which side was the quite cats.

Overall

I think my classmates did TERRIFIC. Some parts could've been better but we're still learning.

Jamaica Review (This isn't a movie)

Over the past few days we went on vacation for my mom's spring break. We stayed in Montego Bay, Jamaica. It was 2 plane trips; one was 2 hours and the other 3 hours, but on the secibd flight there were TV screens and we could watch TV shows of movies. On the way back it was 5 hours with no TV screens.

This looks a lot like our room
We stayed at Sunscape Splash Resort. Our room was on the 9th floor; we had a porch that overlooked the ocean. There were 4 pools. We spent the most time in the activities pool because it was Kyra's and mom's favorite pool.

We went on a few excursions. We went tubing, shopping, and to Rose Hall Great Place. The first one you get to hear about is tubing.

Tubing
We drove 45 mins to Falmouth to go tubing down the Rio Bueno. When we first got there we had a few pictures taken. The we climbed some mini waterfalls. After that experience we went river tubing. There were some mini rapids and once we finished we got to go rafting out in the ocean to a beach. What was really terrifying was that where we were rafting it was 400 ft deep, but it was fun.

Shopping
We went shopping in three places. In the first place they were selling Beats headphones for really cheap. Kyra almost got ran over by a reckless driver and somebody tried to sell a lady in our group drugs. The second place Kyra and I bought cool hats. I also got a pair of Beats headphones. Mom got some jewelry. The third place was a craft market. They had really small shops and and we got to bargain with them. We got some cool stuff in the end.

Rose Hall Great House

Rose Hall 
Rose Hall Great House is said to be a haunted plantation house that was built in the 1800s. We got tickets to see it at night. Our tour guide told us it wasn't going to be scary. LIES. Kyra got the crap scared out of her. Next time we go, we are going in the day to learn about Rose Hall and the crazy lady who lived there.

Captain America The Winter Soilder

In Captain America, Cap and Black Widow take out a team of pirates. Cap meets a new friend/ally, The Falcon. Together they team up to take out a new foe, The Winter Solider. They also have to take out three helicarriers. I really suggest seeing this movie, but you should also see the first movie or it won't make sense.

I would rate this 5 D-Stars. This movie was great and it setup a solid foundation for the next movie. Especially with the crushed dude (couldn't think of his name) becoming Crossbones in the next movie. And it really relates from the First Avenger Captain America. After we fished watching this movie I finally understood the orgin of Winter Soldier's name.



Mom's Takeaways: "This was an excellent movie. Falcon and Black Widow are tied for my two favorite superheros. What I like best about Marvel movies is the amazing cast of charters. I am always excited to see some of my favorite actors featured as villains and heroes. As you can guess, the fighting was too much for me, but the depth of the story line was impressive. I'm still very angry that the Iron Man movies have a different Mr. Stark. I like the one in the Captain America movies better."

Thor: The Dark World Review

In Thor, he has a new foe to face and a lot happens. Jane finds a hidden secret. Loki has to pay for his crimes from Avengers. And they take out another enemy of Asgard is defeated and the nine realms are safe.

I would rate this movie 4 D-Stars. Because when Jane gets the aether and one of the cops touches her he explodes, but when Thor touches her there is no explosion. And that's only one of the few of those that happen in the movie. Also, why was Eric talking to all the elder and then they got him out of jail that confused me.



Mom's Takeaways" I liked this story, but I get really frustrated with Loki. Sometimes I think deep down he's a good guy and then other times he just a butthole. Darcy makes me laugh. And, I like seeing Thor without a shirt. The fighting stressed me out as usual."

Iron Man 3 Review

In Iron Man 3, an enemy from the past comes back at Tony. But now Tony really depends on his suits. He has been making a lot more suits since Avengers. (Speaking of The Avengers, now Tony's got an unhelpful problem from the black hole.) Tony's gets a new ally in the from of a kid from Tennessee. An act of terrorism threatens the US and Iron Man is up

I would rate Iron Man 3 4.5 D-Stars mainly because of a few errors. The easiest error to spot was when the extremist soldiers melt something with their hands, their clothes don't melt. Also when they were in the plane and he melted the door knob but didn't heat up the hand part of the suit.  But what confused me even more is why Tony didn't call The Avengers or at least S.H.I.E.L.D. Like really, the president is involved in this.



Mom's Takeaways: "I saw this movie once before. It made so much more sense this time because I understood the background and references. Pepper Potts rocked. I think it's one of my favorites. I didn't like when they walked out of the fire and immediately had hair and clothes. I am sad about the gift he gave Pepper at the end. Liked the kid, but didn't like never seeing the mom or Tony abandoning him at the end."

The Avengers Review

In Avengers, Loki comes back and wants his revenge on the world. So then S.H.I.E.L.D assembles a team of heroes to defend the world from Loki and his army. In the team they have the oldest Solder's in the world. The man made of Iron with shrapnel  in his chest. The man who can turn green. An archer. And an assassin.

SPOILERS: I would rate this 5 D-Stars. It was really funny watching them learn to get along. Them fighting Loki's army. But there is nothing bad to say about this movie. But I am confused about how Maria Hill got out of the ruble of the explosion. I also suggest watching agents of S.H.I.E.L.D for other cool stuff that happens.




Moms Takeaways: "It was cool watching all the superheros get together. I like the bickering and different personalities. There was too much fighting at the end. Surprisingly though I loved it. I still want to be Black Widow and date Iron Man (Thor could be my boyfriend)."

Thor Review



In Thor (played by Chris Hemsworth), he will inherit the throne as King of Asgard from his father Odin. However, on the day that he is to be crowned. Thor reacts with brutality when the gods' enemies, the Frost Giants, enter the palace in violation of their treaty. As punishment, Odin banishes Thor to o Earth. He met new friends like Jane, Darcy, and Eric. Meanwhile, his brother Loki becomes ruler of Asgard because his father has gone into a deep sleep.

SPOILERS: I would rate this 4 D-Stars. Because of all the confusion like the camera looking at the top or bottom then going trough the water then we see Asgard. Is Asgard at the top or the bottom? Also how Thor is the god of thunder and he can make tornados? Also it confused me how he destroyed the destroyer with his own heat.



Mom's Takeaways: "I'm really enjoying watching these movies in order and seeing how they come together. Overall superhero's are HOT. Thor's story was good. I like the gate keeper Heimdal. I don't under stand how Thor changed so much during his day on Earth, but whatever. I couldn't keep up with what side Loki was on. I look forward to Jane and Thor seeing each other again."

Iron Man 2 Review


In Iron Man 2, the son (Ivan) of Howard Stark's enemy (Anton Vanko) came back to get revenge on Tony (played by Robert Downy Jr.). We meet Whiplash and Black Widow (mom's favorite Superhero). The army attempts to steal the suit design and it causes another epic battle.

I would rate this 5 D-Stars because I see nothing wrong with this movie. But, a BIG question is why does Whiplash like whips so much? And if you say it is because of his name, it's not. And, why couldn't any other country make these suits but Whiplash could in Russia? And, how did he get to his suit and whips over to america?



Mom's Takeaways: "My favorite movie yet! Tony is arrogant and funny, Mickey Rourke is a fantastic bad boy, and Black Widow is now my favorite superhero. She is awesome! I don't like that Howard Stark isn't the same as in Captain America, nor do I like that Rhode is a new charter from the first Iron Man. Great story line."

The Incredible Hulk Review

In The Incredible Hulk, Bruce Banner (played by Edward Norton), was working on a project involving gamma radiation. To test his project, he tested it on himself and it backfired, turning him into The Hulk. Now, every time he gets angry, he turns in to Hulk. In the end, there is an epic battle between him and The Abomination.

Immediately after you watch The Incredible Hulk, watch the Marvel One-Shot, The Consultant.

BTW: Spoilers are included. I warned you. 

I would rate this movie 4 D-Stars because I think there was too much fighting. I am not saying this because I think fighting is bad, but they could've had more back story. And, I want to know if Stan Lee died from drinking the soda. I liked that Thunder Bolt Ross was in the movie and in the Captain America 2 trailer and know they connect. Also, would like to know if Thunder Bolt Ross will ever turn into Red Hulk.

Mom's Takeaways: "Not bad. I liked Liv Tyler. Ed Norton did a good job. LOVED the original Bruce Banner cameo. I didn't like the speedy back story in the beginning and the excessive fighting at the end. It was too violent (mother instincts) and stressful."

Iron Man Review

In Iron Man, Tony Stark (played by Robert Downey Jr.) was captured in Afghanistan and held hostage in a cave with a man named Yinsen. He created the first Iron Man suit in a cave with his weapons and scrape metal.

BTW: Spoilers are included. I warned you. 

I rate Iron Man 4 D-Stars because at the final battle when Obadiah Stane was in his suit and got hit by the giant Arc Reactor electricity ray, he got electrocuted and passed out. Tony was missing his hand and helmet, but he didn't get electrocuted and that made me MAD. Also, when Tony and Obadiah were flying he said "How'd you solve the icing problem?" Then Obadiah froze up and fell, but Tony was still up flying and not freezing. How was he not freezing? How did he fix it? I NEED TO KNOW.

Mom's Takeaways: "I had high expectations because Robert Downey Jr. was in it. He is a member of the Brat Pack, so it should've been awesome. It wasn't. I was MAD from the beginning when the pictures of Howard Stark weren't the same guy in Captain America. I did like learning about S.H.I.E.L.D. The robots fighting STRESSED ME OUT."

Captain America The First Avenger Review


This is the first Marvel movie in the Marvel series and we learned about a lot of characters. This movie took place in 1940 during the war. Steve Rogers (played by Chris Evans) was chosen to be a new breed of super solider. He lead a team to take down Hydra, Nazis, and Schmitz. Lots of action and a great setup for the next movie

I would rate it 5 D-Stars. Because I saw nothing wrong with it accept the end credits but that's a hole new story. I thought Bucky death was tragic.



Mom's Takeaways: "It was WAY better than I expected Captain America is HOT and I would date him. I didn't know agent Carter was a girl. In the movie I wish she would've wore pants and sensible shoes because she was in the army. I loved how Iron Man's dad (Howard Stark) was in the movie and I got to know his charter that was really cool. I assumed Captain America was immortal because he was in his 20s in this movie and the commercial for other movies he was the same age. I am sad Bucky died."

Educating Mom On Marvel

It's 2016 and it's time for me to teach my mom about superheros. It has been annoying talking to her about superheros without her understanding. So, me and Mom are watching all the Marvel superhero movies in correct order. (See image below.) 



While we are watching all the superhero movies (I have already seen), I will be reviewing and rating each one in its own blog posting. I will rate them with D-STARS.

0 D-Stars = Let's be honest, all Marvel movies deserve 1 D-Star
1 D-Star = One Direction Worthy
2 D-Stars = Like Quick Silver's death, it's not necessary
3 D-Stars = Even match
4 D-Stars = This is Superhero quality
5 D-Stars = Better than any Superhero movie CREATED
