Spider-Man: Far From Home - Movie Review

End of Phase 3

Spider-Man: Far From Home is the end of the MCU phase 3 movies. With the last few movies from Marvel being almost as dark as the DC movies (to steal a quote from Deadpool), this was the perfect movie to end phase 3 and start phase 4 based on the final end credit scene. I was surprised by the movie coming out on a Tuesday. I was even more surprised that AMC kept their $5 ticket price for stubs members making this the perfect night to see the movie where I live.

Review

Since the last few MCU movies were full of tragedies, I thoroughly enjoyed this much needed light hearted movie where we can enjoy the character developments and much needed humor. I say humor with confidence as the entire theater were laughing through most of the movie. The scene with Hulk throwing Loki around Stark Tower in Avengers was the last time I had heard this much laughter from a theater crowd.

I loved story as well. I was impressed how they tied the story into several other movies in the MCU. There were a few surprises that I was not expecting especially at the end of the movie. If you look on IMDB, you may find one of the surprises in the casting list. I definitely recommend seeing this movie in the theater and I am truly looking forward to adding this one to my digital movie collection.

Rating

I would rate this as a least a HD movie. It will be worth picking up under $20 in UHD or $15 in HD. I was able to get the UHD for $20 from Microsoft using my rewards.

Protecting Your Online Collection

 Protecting Your Collection In this time of cyber crime, you want to protect your investment of digital movies. I will be focusing this page on the primary retailers that connect with Movies Anywhere. At the time of this post, I am only aware of Google and iTunes are the only two retailers that offer secondary authentication. Technically, Amazon offers a secondary authentication with the use of a pin for digital purchases. I highly recommend you use these security feature provided by Amazon, Google, and iTunes. This provides great protection for your collection and any saved credit card information that you have with the retailer. I would not advise keeping your credit card information with a online retailer but I understand it's convenience. With that said, I will point out that users have the ability to removed their credit card information from Amazon, FandangoNow, Google, iTunes (provided you are not using Family Sharing), and Microsoft. This is convenient when one of the retai...

Avengers: Endgame - Review

Movie Review - Spoiler Free I will try to keep this a spoiler free review. First, I would like to applaud Disney/Marvel for making a movie over the 2 hour limit that most movies have kept themselves to lately. The movie would have felt rushed if it was only 2 hours. The movie starts out appropriately timed to the events of Avengers: Infinity War. The movie kept you emotional invested throughout the entire movie. There was some predictability with the story but for the most part, I was able to enjoy the ride without knowing what would happen next. This to me made the movie extremely enjoyable. We get see how the characters deal with the aftermath of the Infinity War and what their options are moving forward. Each character was given their opportunity on screen during the movie. This is obviously easier to do since there are fewer characters after the events of Infinity War. I felt that many characters had an appropriate conclusion to their stories. The movie did leave me with a couple ...

Digital Ownership

 What Is? With the digital revolution, digital media has been sweeping the world. My memory of digital media was back with iTunes in 2001. There you could download music with a touch of a button from an actual retailer vs illegally with the bonus of malware to your computer. I actually had digital music from iTunes before I had a iPod or iPhone to play it on. In 2005, Apple released their video iPod and started to "sell" digital TV and movies. I am not saying Apple was the foundation for the digital revolution but it was my first positive experience with digital media. My first digital video purchase was the unaired Aquaman TV pilot as it was the only place to get it. What does purchasing something digitally really mean though? Apple and Amazon are coming under class-action lawsuits for their digital ownership definition of "buy" an item. The lawsuit stems from the fine print where retailers cannot guarantee you own the product but merely have unlimited streaming. T...
