Review: SPIDER-MAN: HOMECOMING
Spider-Man: Homecoming is a big film for the character. Spider-Man was not in a good place after The Amazing Spider-Man 2, with many (including myself) wondering how would they recover. People weren’t taking to the reboot and for good reason. On February 9th, 2015, the unthinkable happened. Marvel Studios and Sony Pictures managed to come to an agreement where both studios co-produce a Spider-Man film set in the MCU. The internet freaked out. Finally, Spider-Man can fight alongside other heroes like Iron Man and Captain America. Here we are two years later and that moment is finally here; Spider-Man in the Marvel Cinematic Universe. Does Spider-Man: Homecoming live up to…

Stephen Amell Hopes to Explore Green Arrow’s Liberal Roots in ARROW Season 6
While Green Arrow was written as little more than a Batman knock-off when he was first created, the character was later developed into his own unique persona by other writers. Oliver Queen went on to adopt a goatee and strong liberal beliefs. (Essentially, he’s a social justice warrior.) Those classic elements mostly went away in the New 52, before returning in Rebirth. On television, Arrow hasn’t exactly embraced those aspects of the characters fully. The show has spent most of its time exploring a darker take on the Emerald Archer, who spends more time brooding than cracking jokes. (There’s those pesky Batman knock-off complaints again…) We’ve seen some of his…

Following his debut in Captain America: Civil War, Tom Holland’s Web-Slinger makes his solo debut in this summer’s Spider-Man: Homecoming.
