Marvelous Monday in 2016 posts once a month, on the second Monday of the month.
It’s been a long year with Marvelous Monday releasing almost every Monday in 2015. Today I look back at the most popular Marvelous Monday, and assess the superhero movie year for Fox and Disney. Continue reading “Marvelous Monday #47 – Looking Back On 2015”
The following is a season one review of Marvel’s Jessica Jones, a Netflix Original show.
Marvel’s Jessica Jones is a Netflix Original show created by Melissa Rosenberg, of Twilight and Dexter-fame, which continues the Netflix adventure for the Disney owned Marvel Universe. Set in the same world as Marvel’s Daredevil and the Marvel Cinematic Universe, Jessica Jones continues our journey to The Defenders mini-series. And while Jones’ villain, Kilgrave, wasn’t as complex as Wilson Fisk was in Marvel’s Daredevil, Kilgrave was much scarier. Jessica Jones‘ debut season is just as great as Daredevil‘s first season was. Continue reading “REVIEW: Jessica Jones – Season One (2015)”
On Friday the 20th of November 2015 (more than seven months after Marvel’s Daredevil was released on Netflix) Netflix releases its second of four superhero shows preceding a The Defenders mini-series. Marvel Studios’ first female-led superhero property will be Marvel’s Jessica Jones, and I’m really excited about it. Continue reading “Marvelous Monday #43 – You Should Be Excited For Jessica Jones”
Last Thursday Marvel announced some updates for its Phase 3 line-up. We are getting an Ant-Man sequel, but at the cost of having to move Black Panther and Captain Marvel around. Meanwhile, Marvel also announced that they are doing three untitled films in 2020. What might they be, and how should we feel about the Ant-Man sequel?

Beware of spoilers from Ant-Man
A lot of things happened at Marvel Studios this last week. The Creative Committee was, according to some reports, disbanded, and Disney changed who Kevin Feige reports to. Ike Perlmutter no longer makes the decisions. Perlmutter has supposedly treated people poorly as a representative of Marvel, but we don’t know what this will mean in the long run. Therefore I chose to write about something else instead – are we getting an Ant-Man sequel?

The following is a spoiler-free review of Marvel’s Ant-Man (2015).
We’ve reached the final film of Marvel Studios‘ Phase Two – Ant-Man is here. If this sounds like Marvel has gone for one of the most obscure comic books they’ve ever done, then you’re not entirely wrong. The general public wouldn’t be that familiar with the character, but he is not unimportant – his film is much more than a stopgap between Avengers: Age Of Ultron and Captain America 3 – in fact, this origin story is a breath of fresh air for the Marvel Cinematic Universe.
