"Men in Black: International"


Not sure if you call it a long awaited return, but I was genuinely happy to see another installment. However, I believe it failed to recapture the magic it once held twenty years ago.
Tessa Thompson's character has been searching for the MIB headquarters for the said twenty years. Someone did not do a good job hiding the very existence of MIB. No one has willingly joined the MIB. They were recruited. No one is concerned by this? Will Smith chased a cephlapod on door.
Then Agent M (not Mike Myers) gets transferred to MIB International in London, ran by Brian Mills, and gets assigned with Chris Hemsworth, the blondest agent ever. Compared to him, Tessa seemed to have studied the MIB Wikipedia page because she was more in tune than Chris, and it's infuriating. She whips the neuralizer like it's nothing and expected similar results, which, to her luck, she does. When Chris couldn't find the little red button, she presses it and it has a delay before the car room off into the sky. That should've been funny, but I say F you to that.
Calling your business international with only two branches is like saying you're a nationwide superstore with only 300 stores across five states. You know who you are. And why international at all? Shouldn't you have a base on the moon or something, call it interstellar?
Why isn't there an alien agent yet protecting the earth? Those worm things don't count; they had their chance.
I probably won't go see it in theaters. Maybe when I find it in Netflix or my local library. It doesn't seem worth spending the money.

    I will totally go see it if sexy Mister Hemsworth is in it. Plus it looks like there's a lot of chick power so yeaaah. I will totally spend my $9 to go see this on the big screen when it comes to my tiny little town and it's been on DVD for 3 months

"Alita: Battle Angel"

I can't tell if this is live action or if this a video game. It looks fake as sh*t. Is this why Avatar 2  is being pushed back now TEN YEARS? I'm starting to wonder if I'm feeling the same anticipation as Terminator fans between the first and second movie. I'm getting bored of that franchise. I'm getting off track. I know James Cameron isn't the director. I didn't grow up with manga and anime, so I'm not as excited as I should. But it looks like it's going to be another Americanized flop.

"What Men Want"

I'm all for equality for everyone. But do we have to gender swap movies, that probably weren't funny to begin with, to give them that equality? Taraji P. Henson is struggling to move up in the sports world, but everyone, who hasn't been Me Too'd yet, stars in this movie as misogynistic assholes to her. That is until she goes to a tea room on a stormy night that results in her ability to hear men's thoughts. Then she uses it to control her destiny. You don't have to give Cookie powers to hear men's thoughts. She already controls men! *Drops mic* In theaters: February 8, 2019 Click image to view URL.

"Black Widow"

Think Avengers: Endgame is the current pinnacle of this franchise? Think again. With the demise of Black Widow, I have questions about how they're going to make a Black Widow movie if she's dead. I did read that this takes place between Captain America: Civil War and Avengers: Infinity War . So there's that, I guess. Also, I'm feeling Umbrella Academy vibes here as we will likely be diving more into the Black Widow training that made Natasha who she is today. We find out where Chief Hopper went though. He escaped through the Upside Down and is now leading a life as a superhero of some sort. Or villain. Who knows at this point? In theaters: May 1, 2020 Click image to view URL.
