#TheLoveHypothesis was one of the few instances where I wasn't excited to see Filipino representation. I'm far from the first person to have criticized it, but I still felt it was worth writing about—enough for 2000-plus words. More in my latest for @fangirlish.bsky.social:

Anh's friendship with Olive is one of the best parts of The Love Hypothesis movie. But that'll never be enough to overlook how the film disrespected Anh's ethnicity and Asian representation. More thoughts HERE: https://fangirlish.me/4rMm56x

I'm still thinking about the animation in Forgotten Island and how much of a visual feast it is. I haven't been this impressed by animation work since Across the Spider-Verse!

If you asked me six years ago, when #AgentsofSHIELD had just ended, if Marvel should bring them back, my answer was an easy yes. If you ask me that same question now? Well, that answer is a lot more complicated. More in my latest for @bamsmackpow.bsky.social: bamsmackpow.com/should-marve...

Should Marvel bring back the Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D.?

Thirteen years ago, Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D. premiered on ABC, marking the start of a landmark Marvel television show that would run for 136 episodes over the cou

One of my favorite things about #SpiderManBrandNewDay was seeing how the movie handled Peter and Ned's friendship and made sure it got the care and attention it deserved, so I wrote about it in my latest for @fangirlish.bsky.social:

fangirlish@fangirlish.bsky.social · 2mo ago

In a movie where romance is one of the biggest topics to address, Spider-Man: Brand New Day makes sure to show the value of friendship. We explore more below: https://fangirlish.me/4wgLbeD

When I left my screening of Spider-Man: Brand New Day, I overheard some guy say he doesn't like Sam Wilson as Captain America. 😡😡😡

Ever since the Ryan Gosling Ghost Rider news dropped, I've noticed an influx of love for Gabriel Luna's Robbie Reyes, which is awesome! 💀🔥 That inspired me to write about why Robbie is the #AgentsofSHIELD return that should happen. More for @bamsmackpow.bsky.social: bamsmackpow.com/robbie-reyes...

Believe it or not, despite writing 1000-plus words already, I had more I could've said regarding #WonderMan 's cancellation! But I had to stop at some point and couldn't ramble forever. More on the upsetting Marvel news in my latest:

Marvel may have hoped that Wonder Man's cancellation would get buried amidst the Spider-Man excitement, but that's not the case. Our thoughts on the disappointing news HERE: https://fangirlish.me/4wC07VN

Six years ago, Daisy and Sousa went from crack ship to canon when they kissed during the time loop episode of #AgentsofSHIELD, and my life hasn't been the same since! 🥰 Last year, for @fangirlish.bsky.social, I gushed about Dousy and what makes their story so rewarding: fangirlish.me/46c3w35

Daisy & Sousa Remain One of the Most Rewarding Parts of 'Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D.'

From crack ship to endgame, Daisy Johnson and Daniel Sousa's love story was a wonderful narrative for the final season of "Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D."

Today marks the anniversary of Fantastic Four (2005). That movie is where my love for Marvel really began, and, in honor of its 20th anniversary last year, I wrote an article for @fangirlish.bsky.social about what makes the film still a worthwhile watch. 🔗: fangirlish.me/3GALz3X

‘Fantastic Four’ (2005) is Still a Worthwhile Watch 20 Years Later

"Fantastic Four" (2005) may not be perfect, nor is it part of the MCU. But it's still a solid origin story with fun moments and noteworthy elements.
