The way I see it, superhero movies (DC or Marvel) chose their own tone. They can be either funny, serious, or a bit of both. And if you know how to do […]
Justice League
Thor: Ragnarok
There’s a jolly tone in “Thor: Ragnarok” that reminds you of how entertaining and very funny “Guardians of the Galaxy” was. It’s nice to have a Sci-Fi franchise get a sense of […]
