REVIEW: She-Hulk: Attorney At Law

This review contains spoilers. Read at your own risk.

Fleabag who? (I’m just kidding, I love Phoebe Waller-Bridge.)


She-Hulk: Attorney at Law is one of Marvel Studios greatest projects yet. Mainly because it targets thirty year-old incel Marvel fans for being incels, but also because it represents strong women who fight against wrongdoing in many forms.

She-Hulk starts off as a courtroom comedy-drama and ends as a fourth wall-breaking superhero epic. It was the perfect blend of comedy, drama, real-life issues and fantasy. Jen goes from being a strong lawyer to a strong lawyer AND superhero, which was absolutely perfect character development. The final episode- tied with episode 8- was definitely the best, and it genuinely had me thinking Disney+ crashed for a second- a super creative take on breaking the fourth wall. I hope that Marvel makes more shows like this in the future.

Tatiana Maslany’s performance was amazing. I had previously known her from Orphan Black in which she plays multiple characters, so I knew she was going to do well the moment her casting was announced. I also loved the side characters, Nikki and Pug. They are definitely friendship goals. Jameela Jamil is always acting perfection, and I'd really love to see a Titania spin-off.

All of the cameos (yes, I know this is Jen’s show but I have to talk about them) were awesome. Bruce Banner, Emil Blonsky, Wong, and the one I was most excited to see, Matt Murdock! It was nice seeing Charlie Cox reprise his role as Daredevil after so long of #SaveDaredevil.

So now as I bask in the glory of watching incels spontaneously combust over this series, I give She-Hulk: Attorney At Law 4 out of 5 stars.

2024 Reading Wrap-Up

Image
Happy end of year everyone! This one has been absolutely crazy for me, dealing with some of the uppiest ups and the downiest downs. I would summarize this year in one word: a rollercoaster. But throughout this year, one thing has been pretty consistent for me, and that would be reading. Through all of the crazy events of my life this year, it was rare when I was without a book (or e-reader) in hand. I actually read so much, that... I read 110 books this year! Go me! I'm very proud of myself for achieving this goal, as I've never read 100 books before, much less 110. My previous record was 79 books in 2021, and my original goal for this year was 80. I credit my ability to read so much more due to two things: one, the Kindle Fire HD 8 I received for Christmas in 2023, and two, my job allowing me ample reading time (while the kiddos sleep, of course). And with so many books comes many feelings, particularly of like and dislike, some of which I felt stronger for than others. Listed...

The Disappearance of Mekayla Bali

Image
Every person interested in true crime has that one case that sticks with them. The one case that keeps them awake at three in the morning, the one case that boggles the mind. For me, that case is the disappearance of Canadian teen Mekayla Bali. Why? Well, there’s so much coverage of her last movements before her disappearance, and yet no one knows where she is- or if she’s still alive. So, who is Mekayla Bali? Mekayla Margaret Kim Bali (formerly Niebergall) is a Canadian teenager from Yorkton, Saskatchewan. She lived with her mother, Paula, her two siblings, Joshua and Eliyora, and aunt, Rhonda. She had interests such as The Hunger Games and video games like League of Legends. She enjoyed playing the violin and accordion, and nature photography. She wanted to go into a career working with children or animals. She was just a normal teenage girl… However, there may have been something darker going on behind the scenes. Bali had multiple Facebook and Instagram accounts, including an Inst...

From The Vault: Speculation On the Upcoming Vault Tracks from Reputation (Taylor's Version) and Taylor Swift (Taylor's Version)

Image
With the Tortured Poets Department era seemingly coming to a close soon, considering the speculated upcoming announcement for Reputation (Taylor's Version) , my mind has been on the vault tracks lately. In particular, the countless possibilities for the Taylor Swift (Taylor's Version ) vault tracks. Don't get me wrong, I have plenty of interest in the Reputation vault tracks, but we don't have much knowledge on what those might be. Beyond possible re-recorded versions of "I Don't Wanna Live Forever" with ZAYN, Taylor-penned Rihanna hit "This Is What You Came For," as well as scrapped Lover track "Need," we only have one other known song from this time: "Family," a song registered by Taylor in May of 2018 on GEMA and mentioned in an interview with Scott Swift, is the only unreleased song from the Reputation era that the public is aware of. Other than that, we're in the dark as to what Taylor may release from her sixth album...
