Damian's Empire

    1917    I don’t watch much war films yet I do watch time period films and films based on true stories, 1917 Was an honest and truly fantastic story on world war 1.   I’m in love with the camera work as it’s a one shot film, A technique used to film one take making a full length film also called a “oney”, this was used to take a continuous action shot to show what goes on in the front lines and the challenges for our protagonist to take on his adventure.   Yes this movie is taken place during World War One, yet it it’s particularly about a story told to Sam Mendes/director by his grandfather   Alfred H. Mendes as a child who served with the British army in World War One and is dedicated to his grandfather.   The story tells of two messengers of the British army that must reach across enemy territory in hopes to at saving his fellow soldiers in combat. As this plot comes as a part true and accurate part of the war as messengers were called “runners” who has to send letters to their c

     The Invisible Man (2020)   Reboots either there failure's to the original or maybe better. Though I can say this was one heck of a great version to the classic novel well I guess I'd have to give my honest thoughts to this success.    Let me tell you one thing about me, Growing up I was a huge fan of 2004's The Phantom Of the Opera. When I got older I got into the more classic versions of the film while upon discovering that it was based on the book "that thing's got to be covered in dust in my shelf", Anyway after a long while I lost interest in it and got deeper into classic films ranging from 20's to 90's not saying I watched every classic films just well known ones. And I watched those classic Universal Classic monster films which included The Invisible Man (1933).   (1933) Version really stuck to the novel as the story tells of a mad scientist named Jack Griffin who finds a potion giving him the ability of invisibility, When he shows his abil

  Justice League: The Snyder Cut    Zack finally redeemed himself and brought justice to Justice League. This film was beautiful as it gave the appropriate depiction and image to a live action Justice League we all were waiting for.   New scenes are added to the film with new dialogue and music. Scenes are added explaining more to the story and with a new darker tone to scenes, New dialogue is added giving bigger and longer lines to characters giving better reasons to be in the movie some dialogue is removed giving a better understanding and maturity, Music hit me hard not emotionally but gave an excellent thrill and match to scenes.   Speaking of maturity rumors spoke true to adult language added by our heroes. Violence is topped off with bloody gore which was like watching Snyder's The Watchmen except less blood.   Design in characters is way better, Really made me feel like I was watching JL from a comic book as costumes to characters were very accurate and better versions Batma

  Justice League: The Snyder Cut is just 1 day away   With just 1 day left Justice League: The Snyder Cut will be streaming on HBO Max. On March     18,2021 Zack Snyder will bring his Directors cut of Justice League.    The original released back in 2017 and given poor reviews and utter disappointment, With DC comic fans finding it as a really inaccurate imagining of DC "mythology" and a 40% rotten tomatoes. The film was given this treatment as Zack Snyder had a family emergency and left from shooting the film leaving the job to director Joss Whedon. I believe if Zack Snyder stuck around we would be seeing what where gonna get in this directors cut.   If the trailers didn't have your jaws dropped and screaming your vocal chords out "Darkseid" then it seems you have to get mine and every other fan of DC comics experience watching the new trailers. as fans have been seeing our big baddy Darkseid "lord of Apokolips", Now were seeing other villains of DC U

  Superman and Lois (2021)   Superman and Lois has officially released with its pilot episode. After it's trailer gave us a "Man of Steel" feeling with music that sounds awfully similar with Hans Zimmer's work, yet this music is done by Dan Romer, the artist behind the video game score of "Far Cry 5".  The trailer gives this Superman tv show a dark & dramatic tone to it like "Man of Steel".   Superman and Lois doesn't connect to Supergirl and has it's own universe. And as far as I know it seems to ignore the events of Crisis on Infinite Earths,  which ends with the heroes  creating a new earth after all earths in the multiverse are destroyed, this special crossover ends with Clark getting a call from Lois saying "Clark... I need you to get to metropolis now. its the boys" which told fans that clark has two boys and seemed to have fans speculate that a new superman show could happen.   To my knowledge the Kent farm from the TV

  The Call of The Wild  Cast: Harrison Ford, Omar Sy, Dan Stevens, Bradley Whitford. Director: Chris Sanders. The call of the Wild is based on Jack London’s 1903 novel. The Call of The Wild tells a story of Buck a Dog who’s taken from his home and learns what’s it’s like living outside civilization and learns to be a Sled dog with an adventure that would help him eventually find out where he really belongs. Now I never read The Call of The Wild yet I have to say this movie was the absolute best and cutest movie I’ve seen. I love that it’s about finding destiny and where you belong to me at least, Harrison Fords casting was a brilliant choice to this movie as he is the narrator and character who helps Buck and builds a relationship with Buck I think he was good with telling the story in narration. Now though this movie was a good movie thing that should’ve been done better since new technology is out there I thought our protagonist showed way too much CGI,  One thing I found funny in th

  JOKER(2019)   Joker is not a movie with the same origin story fans of the Batman comics know and love as the director (Todd Phillips) made as a Heath Ledger type origin and story. as Ledgers joker gave "wanna know how I got these scars". This story tells of the poor and sad life of Arthur Fleck/Joker who suffers depression and PBA a laughing condition which he can't help. Joker is not just a movie based on a famous and iconic comic supervillain but for me I was shown how hard it is living with a mental illness. The movie is a confusing film as some events by Arthurs storytelling you cant tell what's reality and what's not.    As for Joaquin playing Joker. I was surprised to his take on Joker his laugh was pin point accurate his costume was well done though I was not a fan of make-up I think they put a creative way in Jokers look, when I saw the teaser I thought this was gonna be disappointing as Joaquin was a bit old to play Joker and that would mean there is pr
