The rest of Remembering James Earl Jones and my analysis of his great Career

James Earl Jones is amazing as he had to overcome so much. He had a stutter like President Joe Biden does. Both men had to overcome so much. Once James Earl Jones overcame that, he became one of the best actors ever. In my mind, his best role is Darth Vader. His voice is golden and if he could do the voice, he should do it. It is amazing, if you compare his voice to A New Hope and the Obi Wan Kenobi series, it sounds the same. I will want to go to my blog or my Patreon page to watch the 2 clips that I found on YouTube as I do not want to risk a backlash. Here is the Scene for Star Wars: A New Hope where, Darth Vader will encounter the Millenium Falcon. If you are reading this on my blog, it is

The other clip is from the Obi Kenobi series where Darth Vader is fighting 3rd sister. It is

One of the other roles I enjoy, James Earl Jones is the Lion King. When he plays the voice of Mufasa, it is brilliant. Mufasa was the benevolent king of the Pride Land, and his brother Scar is jealous of him. Scar kills Mufasa because he wanted power. In both the remake and the original, there is no difference in this voice. You want to go to my blog or my Patreon page to watch a couple of clips that I found on YouTube to prove my point. Here is the clip from the 1994 version, it is

Here is a clip from the 2019 version, please watch below

One of the other roles that deserves mentioning is James Earl Jones playing James Greer. He is great at this role. In both Patriot Games and Clear and Present Danger, he shows how strong he is in this role. Especially in Clear and Present Danger, he tells Jack Ryan to watch Ritter like a hawk. You need to watch the movie to see that as I do not have access to a video or a photo on that. The link to the movie is here to click. I read one of the Tom Clancy books back in 2021 and that is the same Ritter we see in this movie. You can go to this link and read or listen to Without Remorse. You want to go to my blog or my Patreon page to watch the clip of James Greer in the White House situation room with Jack Ryan; it is

. You want to go to my blog or my Patreon page to watch the clip of Jack Ryan taking the oath to the people of the United States, it is

This scene is important because this will show what is the most important oath. It is to the people of the United States. Everything that happens now makes sense. With Donald Trump out there, we need a President that will stand up for the people of this great county. Remember, the President works for the American people. Jack Ryan who works for the CIA remembers from what James Greer tells him, you work for the American people.

One of the other roles that deserves mentioning is James Earl Jones playing Terrence Man who is a writer in the Field of Dreams. The scene at the baseball game where he claims he did not see what the character Ray Kinsella saw at the Botson Red Sox game. When Ray Kinsella is fixing to leave Boston, Terrence Man tells him that he saw it. You want to go to my blog or my Patreon page to watch the clip for you to watch. It is

One of the other roles that deserves mentioning is James Earl Jones playing in Sneakers. He will play Crease, and he is great in this role. He told one of the people that we are the U.S. Government, world peace is not our goal. The character Robert Redford played before told him, “I want my life back.” You want to go to my blog or my Patreon page to watch the clip. It is

One of the other roles that deserves mentioning is James Earl Jones playing in Coming to America. He is great in the original Coming to America and the sequel. He is great in these two movies. You want to go to my blog or my Patreon page to watch the couple of clips from both films for you to watch. From the first Coming to America, it is

From the second Coming to America, it is

The actors that worked with him like Mark Hamill and Kevin Costner love working with James Earl Jones. James Earl Jones was born in Arkabutla, Mississippi and moved to Michigan later to grow up. Like I mentioned before, he had to overcome a stutter before landing on Broadway. He played roles in plays such as King Lear and Driving Miss Daisy. Jon Favreau who worked with James Earl Jones said that when James Earl Jones asked him a question about what to do in the remake of the Lion King, he told him, do what you do. This is something that I read when I looked at it in USA Today. If I worked with James Earl Jones, I would have loved to work with him. It sounds like who was a good guy to have a good relationship with. The link to the USA Today article is https://www.usatoday.com/story/entertainment/celebrities/2024/09/09/james-earl-jones-dead-star-wars-lion-king/75149628007/. I will read the article on the USA Today website.

If a person thought another person could do Darth Vader justice with the voice, I do not see anyone right now that could do the voice like James Earl James. I will give you an example of any actor who has been the voice of a popular character for a long time. My answer is Peter Cullen as Optimus Prime. I will play James Earl Jones voice playing Darth Vader and Peter Cullen as Optimus Prime to make my point. I will pull from a New Hope as Darth Vader and have you watch a clip James Earl Jones voice as Darth Vader from the Obi Wan Kenobi series. For Peter Cullen as Optimus Prime, you will want to go to my blog or my Patreon page to watch two clips, one from the original 1986 Transformers movie based on the 1984 Transformers series, and the other from the recent film that came out last year which is Transformers: Rise of the Beasts that came out in 2023. I hope you enjoy watching those clips. I know I covered and talked about these clips before, but here they are and will be on my blog and my Patreon Page. Here is the Scene for Star Wars: A New Hope where, Darth Vader will encounter the Millenium Falcon. If you are reading this on my blog, it is

The other clip is from the Obi Kenobi series where Darth Vader is fighting 3rd sister. It is

Here is the clip with Peter Cullen playing Optimus Prime in the 1986 Transformers film based on the 1984 Transformers Cartoon, it is

Here is the other clip with Peter Cullen playing Optimus Prime in Transformers: Rise of the Beasts, it is

Before I end this video and article, my recommendation for you to vote for Governor of NC is Josh Stein. Josh Stein is qualified to be Governor, and I am endorsing and voting for Josh Stein. Mark Robinson is not qualified as he wants to have a total abortion ban and slash public school funding. Anyone saying he or she wants to slash public school funding has no business to be Governor of NC as well as not having women have say about her own body and not having the Government telling her what to do. The current state of the Republican Party is about being big brother and interfering with our lives. I say no more to that. As I said before, vote for Democracy and decency. There is nothing decent about MAGA. Please vote blue up and down the ballot and make sure you vote early as well as you are registered. I will leave useful links in the description below to be sure you are registered and how you can help as well. Have the courage to stand up for this great county of the United States of America. Thank you.

This is very critical they are doing this movie. When you have a person running for President of the United States of America promising to be a dictator, this is dangerous and unqualifying. I will play the trailer for you to watch. I will give you my analysis of the trailer after we watch it together.

My Review and Reaction and Analysis of the Apprentice Trailer

What we see when watching this trailer of the Apprentice, Donald Trump is going to an apartment in New York City telling a person he is there on the behalf of Roy Cohn. This movie takes place in the 1970’s people are dressing in the movie and that is what the cars and buildings look like. The person says, “Donald Who?” That is good. Donald Trump is being played in the movie by Sebastin Stan. Why does Sebastin Stan sound familiar? He should because he played the Winter Solider in the Marvel Cinematic Universe. Here is a photo of Sebastin Stan playing the Winter Solider. If you are reading this on my blog, it is https://wegeekgirls.com/2014/03/13/16-minutes-of-behind-the-scenes-footage-from-captain-america-the-winter-soldier/

His real name is James Buchanan Barnes. The Winter Solider was manipulated by Hydra. Hydra means when you cut off one head two more heads grow back. Hydra had a manipulation of Hydra agents in the United States Government. Does that sound familiar? It should, the Russians infiltrated the United States Government by influencing elections and making sure Donald Trump got elected. The smart scientist was in a computer in Captain America: The Winter Solider influencing our society in that film. It is happening now, and it is sad.

Sebastin Stan looks like the younger version of Donald Trump. I will bring up an image of Donald Trump when he looks younger. This image is perfect as it compares Sebastin Stan playing Donald Trump, if you are reading this on my blog, it is https://images.app.goo.gl/ryjGbsKcJoB4X6Uv6. In the trailer, they make fun of Donald Trump’s ass. Roy Kohn says he has a big ass. If you see Donald Trump’s ass, he does have a big ass even today. His diet of fast food and he has done drugs is why this has happened to him.

In the trailer, Roy Cohn tells him there are rules. Before Roy Cohn tells him the rules, Donald Trump tells him, “You are ruthless”. The first rule is to attack, attack, attack. The second rule, admit nothing, deny everything. The third rule is to say; no matter what happens, you claim victory, and never admit defeat. Roy Cohn tells Donald Trump; you must do anything to anyone to win. His first wife Ivanna tells Donald Trump in the trailer, “Your face looks like an orange”.

At the end of the trailer, a reporter asks Donald Trump, what if you lost your fortune. I don’t know, maybe I will run for President. Earlier in the trailer, he saw the campaign slogan for Ronald Reagan where it said, Make America Great Again. He is a grifter. As it showed earlier in the trailer how he was inflating how big his buildings were. You see that now, how claims how big his crowds are and the day of 9/11/2001, he was bragging he has the biggest building after the Twin Towers of the World Trade Center were destroyed after terrorists crashed two Seven Forty-Seven in the two buildings of the World Trade Center. That was a lie as it suddenly was the Empire State Building at the time. This guy is a horrible person, and this trailer showed it very well.

I will do a live video of remembering James Earl Jones and doing an analysis of his great acting career. As you all heard, he died on Monday, September 9, 2024. It was a great loss and in my mind; he will go down as one of the great actors of our time. I hope to have it on Monday September 16, 2024. You want to be on the lookout. I will post the read of his great career on my Patreon Page. You will need to sign up for Patreon to read it if you do not want to wait for the video. Thank you.

Before I finish this video and blog post, I would normally not do this. I will tell you who I am endorsing for President of the United States, I will be endorsing and voting for Kamala Harris. If you are reading this on my blog, the image of Kamala Harris is https://images.app.goo.gl/BGGpgpqgqEhkcjon6

Donald Trump is a horrible person who deserves never to be in the Oval Office ever again. I will not bring up any more images of Donald Trump as you can find his images on Google. I feel that you do not want to get sick and do not want to feel like you are going to puke. This is not about liberal or conservative or right or left. This must deal with right and wrong. As Taylor Swift said the night on the debate on September 10, 2024. If you are reading this on my blog, the image of Taylor Swift is https://www.teenvogue.com/story/taylor-swift-melbourne-eras-show-folklore-lonely to look at this photo.

I looked at the data between the two and made my choice. I have done the same thing. Both Liz Cheney and Dick Cheney are voting for Kamala Harris. The image for Liz Cheney is https://images.app.goo.gl/wXrdB1bFQbHPtqtw8 and for Dick Cheney is https://images.app.goo.gl/sLNx1yn51fpXQemT6 if you are reading this on my blog.

When Taylor Swift, Liz Cheney, and Dick Cheney are voting for Kamala Harris. You know this is bigger than any party affiliation you may have. Vote for Democracy, decency, and just have a person who is a good person to be in the Oval Office. I will be making my recommendations and endorsements in other races of this election in the year of 2024. The next one will be in a video post for the Governor of NC. Thank you.

Hello everyone, welcome to the Mattacritic. This is Matthew Hemenway. Before I begin this episode, please subscribe to this channel and hit that notification bell to be notified of any episodes at the bottom of this video or blog post. In this episode of the Mattacritic, I will be reviewing the Disney Channel Original Movie Right on Track which came out in 2003 that is currently on Disney+. Why am I reviewing this movie? There are several reasons why to review this movie. This movie deals with the story of Erica and Courtney Enders that went into drag racing. Drag racing is where a car races down a track, and that individual must get his or her car across the finish line. It is not like NASCAR racing where they go in a circle. That individual goes down a straight line and must get his or her car across the finish line. The league that Drag racing goes into is called NHRA which stands for the National Hot Rod Association. When Erica Enders first races was when she was 8 years old, she races in the Junior division of the National Hot Rod Association. Her father was Greg Enders, and he was a great drag racer. There is a scene in the beginning of the movie where Erica Enders is 4 years old, and she was in her dad’s car, and he had to get her out of the car for him to get ready to race. She gets challenged by a couple of boys that tease her about being on the training wheels of her bicycle. She tells them that she can beat them. She races them and she does beat them. I will explain more as the episode continues. I will give you my rating at the end of this episode. I hope this episode will inspire you to read, watch, and learn.

Rest of Review and Rating of Right on Track

As was mentioned before, the movie Right on Track deals with the story of Erica and Courtney Enders. Erica Enders was born a racer. She has skills that cannot be taught. As her father Greg Enders tells Erica’s mother and his wife, only the best drivers have that. In her first race when she was 8 years old, she won that race and yes, she ended up beating the boys. She was the only girl at the time when she raced the boys in Houston, Texas. Houston, Texas is where this story takes place. The idea of a female drag racer was unheard of at the time when Erica Enders raced at the time. Courtney Enders will follow in her sister Erica Enders footsteps. Erica Enders inspired her sister Courtney Enders to get into drag racing.

The movie will jump 7 years later when Erica Enders is 15 years old and going to be 16 years old shortly. How I know this is that she will test for her license later in the movie and most states have people get their driver licenses when they are at least 16 years old. Her dad Greg Enders tells her and her sister Courtney Enders that you can race out of state if you have straight A on your report card. If you have Bs you are racing in Texas only. Any Cs, you can forget racing. They both agree to his terms and promise that they will get straight A in their classes.

Erica Enders will race against Jordy Knowlton and his father Rusty Knowlton will tease Erica Enders’ father Greg Enders; your little girl will not cry if she loses. Erica Enders races against Jordy Knowlton and loses to him. Erica Enders is frustrated by this as she hates to lose. Greg Enders tells Erica Enders that you need to go and shake his hand. Erica Enders tells her father that he is a jerk. Her father reminds her that it does not matter if he is a jerk or not; win or lose at the end of the day, you need to be the best person you can be. Erica Enders will end up shaking Jordy Knowlton’s hand. Rusty Knowlton tells her, this is not for little girls, why don’t you do us and the sport a favor and get out now. This attitude is still here as there are males still that think that females should not do things that they perceive are only done by males. That attitude is wrong, and it is unfortunate that it is still here today. Her father Greg Enders agrees with Erica that, you are right, they are jerks. There are those that think they ought to gloat if they win and have that arrogance that they should win all the time. It is happening now with how MAGA claims if they do not win all the time, it is rigged against them. They will gloat when they do win. They are sore losers and the good thing about sports is if you take about competition teaches and learn how to win and lose with grace; it will make you a better person. If you do not do that, you become a bad person.

Erica Enders will be in her room later and she is testing her mental speed with a device that does that. She is not pleased with it. Her mom Janet Lee Enders comes in and asks her, are you going to be this every time you lose. Erica Enders tells her mother that she hates to lose. Her mom tells her, you cannot win all the time. Her mother is pointing out a fact that is very true. Everyone loses now and then, no one wins all the time. Erica Enders tells her mother that when she first stepped into her father’s car, it just felt right when she raced. She felt at home when she was behind the wheel of a car. For example, if a person likes to write, that person will feel he or she at their best and feel like that who he or she is at that moment. It is who that person is and no one else should try to change that person. Courtney Enders comes in later tickling Erica Enders with a feather. Erica Enders gave her the device and Courtney Enders got a better score. Courtney Enders handed her the device and Erica Enders was frustrated that she did better with it than she did with it.

Erica Enders will come to the garage with Courtney Enders in Erica’s car. Courtney Enders tells her we should race each other. Erica Enders tells Courtney Enders, if I did that, it would not make sense. She tells her sister Courtney if I raced you and beat you, all I did was beat a little kid. If by some miracle, you beat me, all I did was get beat by a little kid. It would be a no-win situation. As Courtney Enders tells her, you crack me up, you take it so seriously. Erica Enders tells her, how am I supposed to take it? As Courtney Enders tells her, it is just a race. Courtney Enders may be the younger sister, but she is right. It is just a race. Erica Enders must allow herself to relax and not to take it so seriously. Erica Enders must allow herself to have fun.

Yes, life will have stakes, but the stakes cannot overwhelm you, so that you do not have fun. If you allow yourself to enjoy the process and do your best, you will be more successful than if you do not do that.

Erica Enders is played by Beverly Mitchell who played Lucy Camden in the TV series 7th Heaven. She played the third child of the Camden family. She was the 3rd oldest in the Camden family. Mat and Mary Camden were the older two. Erica Enders is the oldest one. There are only two of them in this family. How she plays Erica Enders is how she plays Lucy. She is fiery and will not tolerate people picking at her. Later in the movie, Erica Enders is getting picked on by a couple of popular girls saying that racing is not a real sport. She plays volleyball as well as does drag racing. She tells them, you do not think that it is a real sport. Have you ever been in a car that is going fast? It feels like you can hardly breathe. You can hardly hold the steering wheel. You had better develop your arm muscles, so I am sorry I must disagree with you. It takes quite a bit of athletic ability to do what I do. I will play the clip with the two girls picking on Erica Enders. You will watch the YouTube video included in this blog to watch that clip. Thank you.

Courtney Enders is played by Brie Larson in this movie. Yes, it is the same Brie Larson that will end up playing Captain Marvel in the Marvel Cinematic Universe. This is one of the first roles she had as an actress. This is a theme for Brie Larson, she plays females that are tough and do not fall into the traditional female role. Brie Larson was in Hoot where she plays a tough female character who is trying to save owls that lived under the ground. She gets a role to play Elizabeth Zott in Lessons in Chemistry and yes, Elizabeht Zott does not fall into traditional female roles. She defies this story at every turn. Courtney Enders is like this, and she likes to race like her big sister Erica Enders.

Erica Enders will later be in a time trial with Jordy Knowlton, and she beats his time. She will later make fun of Jordy Knowlton and throw him a pocket pack of tissues. Her father Greg Enders will not be happy with Erica Enders. He tells her, if you want to lower yourself to his level go ahead. You were taught better than that. You are not the Knowltons. I thought I had to teach you how to lose, I never thought I had to teach you how to win. Erica Enders will realize that her father Greg Enders is right and realizes, nothing is worth going to his level. I will play the clip of Erica Enders getting lectured by her father. You will want watch the YouTube video included in this blog to watch this clip. Thank you.

It is what was mentioned before, if a person cannot learn how to win or lose with grace, it will make that person become a bitter person. That person will be a sore loser and will gloat when he or she wins. A person must understand that you will not win all the time. That helps a person to have humility. When a person tries to do something, you should always do your best.

Erica Enders with her best friend Randy Jones who helps with being the crew chief of the car. She and he will have gone to ice skating rink. They both fall on the ice later as they have a hard time managing the balance of the ice skates. They must later help the two girls that picked on her by repairing their car. Because of her racing skills, she was able to know how to look at the car and repair it.

Erica and Courtney Enders will face challenges in the movie and will learn how to grow and become better and stronger people. One of the challenges is that Erica Enders will be needed to bump her French grade to an A and that she will be late to a volleyball match because of a vehicle breakdown. There will not be anything else revealed here. It does bring the viewer to the climax and help the viewer understand what happens in the film.

I will give you, my rating. I give the Disney Channel Original Movie, Right on Track, a 10 out of 10. This is a quality movie, and it is timeless. This story has something to say about how males are afraid of females going into a sport that is dominated by males. Erica Enders is having to go through several trials and must figure out she is going to get through them. She must learn how to win and lose with grace. She will learn from her sister Courtney Enders that she needs to take a deep breath and relax. That makes sense. As you know, I took Tae Kwon Do and got a 4th degree black belt. If you relax and take a deep breath, it will lower your heart rate and you will not be so tense. It is important to do this. Yoga will teach you this as well. What is happening with MAGA is that they believe they should not lose, and they must win all the time. MAGA does not know how to win and lose with grace. That is the problem and that needs to change. They do not want to play fair and that hurts everyone. It does compare to the film as was mentioned by winning and losing with grace. I will play the promotional piece from when Disney Channel released the movie. It is

I will play the other promotional clip from the movie as well. It is

Hello everyone, welcome to the Mattacritic. This is Matthew Hemenway. Before I start this episode, please subscribe to this channel, and hit that notification bell to be notified of any episodes in this video or blog post. Please consider signing up for my newsletter on my website of www.mattacritic9803.com on my website. Please follow me on my blog by clicking on my name so that you can stay updated when I post a new blog post on my website. That will be helpful. Thank you. In this episode of the Mattacritic, I will be reviewing and analyzing Star Wars: Episode I: The Phantom Menace that is currently on Disney+. The reason to do this review and analysis of this movie is that there is relative stuff that is said in this movie. It also makes sense as this movie is now 25 years old. This movie has weaknesses, and the idea of the story is good. The idea of going back to understand why Anakin Skywalker became Darth Vader is important. It helps the viewer understand why it happened. It also helps the viewer understand how Emperor Palpatine came to power. He started out as a Senator from Naboo, but he wanted power and he wanted to create a crisis. Palpatine decided to have the trade federation attack Naboo so that he can say to those in the Republic such as the Senate that Chancellor Valorum is not worthy to be Chancellor, so you need to elect a new leader to run the Republic. This is remarkably like how every other dictator rose to power. Rome was a republic before the people there elected Julius Caesar before he decided the people needed a dictator to run the government for them. This is what this review will set out to prove. I will give you my rating at the end of this episode. I hope this episode will inspire you to read, watch, and learn.

I never always agreed with any of the reviewers that I would have read or listened to. What I always admired is that they gave what they saw in the text he or she was reviewing, and that individual would have given his or her honest opinion. This is what I do. Whatever rating I give, you need to know it is my honest opinion. I will never lie to you. If you do not agree with me no matter what rating I give you, that is fine with me.

As was mentioned before, Star Wars: The Phantom Menace came out 25 years ago in May 1999. This movie came out 22 years after the first Star Wars film of A New Hope. This movie tells the viewer that the trade federation was acting aggressively towards Naboo. The two ambassadors that were going to force the settlement of the trade federation were jedi knights. As the viewer finds out the jedi knights are Qui Quon Jinn and Obi Wan Kenobi. Qui Quon Jinn was Obi Wan Kenobi’s master. Oui Quon Jinn tells Obi Wan Kenobi that this trade federation are cowards, the negotiation will be short. That is true. The trade federation is working for Darth Sidious who is known other becomes Emperor Palpatine. At this moment in the story, Emperor Palpatine is Senator Palpatine. He has not been elected the Supreme Chancellor yet. There is this belief that dictators rise to power through force. Most of the time it is more subtle than that. They are usually elected, and people will get duped by that individual thinking they have their best interests at heart when it is usually about them getting power no matter what. Julius Ceasar was elected in Rome. Adolf Hitler was elected by the people of Germany. Adolf Hitler promised the Germans, if you elect me, I will make your lives better. He told the Germans that your lives are bad because of the Jews. The Jews must be eliminated so that your lives can be better. These dictators promise that they will make their lives better, but it is a smokescreen at best. It is a bunch of hot air. Their egos are as big as a hot air balloon. Look at Donald Trump, his ego is as big as hot air balloon. Donald Trump like Senator Palpatine will promise a lot, but in the end, it is all lies. They are usually the agents of chaos and promise those, you must give them all the power to protect from the chaos. It is usually a vicious cycle. That is the irony at best.

Qui Quonn Jinn will have to rescue Jar Jar Binks from getting killed by the Droid army. What is wrong with you? Jar Jar Biniks tells Qui Quon Jinn that I can speak. As Qui Quon Jinn tells Jar Jar Binks, the ability to speak does not make you intelligent. That is true. Jar Jar Binks is a bad version of Steve Urkel. If a person grew up in the 1990’s, Steve Urkel was clumsy. His clumsiness was used intelligently. Steve Urkel was intelligent but had coordination problems. There may be those that like Jar Jar Binks and that is understandable. It is the assessment of this review that this could be better. For example, in Return of the Jedi, Wicket threw the slingshot into his eyes. This was an effective use of comedy there. Jar Jar Binks was stupid, and it was hard to understand what the appeal was. It is

The Jedi later gets help from the Gunkans to help with the problem of the droid army. The Gunkans needed to help them. It is important for that to happen. They must go up and help Queen Amidala escape from the trade federation. It is important for this to happen. The Jedi rescued her and her court.

The governor tells Qui Quon Jinn and Obi Wan Kenobi that they would not dare to kill the queen. The captain of her royal guard tells them they need her alive to sign the treaty. They cannot afford to kill her. The governor tells Queen Amidala that you need to go with the Jedi to Coruscant. Senator Palpatine will need your help. This is true, she must plead her case to the Senate. This is the only way they will get where they need to be.

They escape off the planet of Naboo and they are lucky to get through the blockade of the trade federation. The ship gets heavily damaged, and they are rescued by R2D2. This is where R2D2 came from. He was on Naboo. He was a droid that was always concerned about the mission. The captain tells Queen Amidala that R2D2 is the reason we survived. Queen Amidala tells Padme to clean this droid, it deserves our gratitude.

Padme will meet Jar Jar Binks while cleaning R2D2 and this is where Padme talks to him. It is an enjoyable conversation here. She has a friendly conversation with Jar Jar Binks.

The viceroy of the trade federation tells Darth Sidious that this ship is out of our range. Darth Sidious tells the viceroy; it is not out of the range for the Sith. Darth Sidious introduces the viceroy of the trade federation to Darth Maul. Darth Maul is cool as he is menacing, and he has a face that is menacing. Darth Maul is a great character. He wears a black hood. The good thing that this movie does is that it has Palpatine in the same hood that he was known to wear once he became the emperor. Return of the Jedi showed that as well. It is of a navy-blue color. It is a communication that the viceroy and his second in command have with Palpatine. The viceroy tells him after they are off with Darth Sidious, there are now two of them. The second in command agrees, this is getting out of hand.

As Oui Quon Jinn tells them, this is the best place to take her is Tatooine. It is the place where we must hide from the trade federation. Tatooine is controlled by the Hutts. As the captain tells the Jedi, you cannot take her there, the Hutts are gangsters. It would be, if the Hutts were looking for her, but that gives us the advantage. Qui Quon Jinn is right, they need to take her there as they are not looking for her.

They get on Tatooine, and this will lead Qui Quon Jinn to go with Padme, Jar Jar Binks, and R2D2 to meet up with Wala and they will eventually meet up with Anakin Skywalker. As Anakin Skywalker tells Padme, are you an angel? Padme tells Anakin, what? An angel, as Anakin says. As Anakin describes, they are the most beautiful creatures in the galaxy. As he tells Padme, all the space pilots talk about when they come through her. Anakin Skywalker is a slave. Padme leaves and lets him know, I was glad to meet you, Anakin. Anakin tells her the same thing.

Anakin Skywalker must help down the road. Anakin gets Padme, Qui Quon Jinn, and R2D2 to shelter. Anakin Skywalker shows Padme C3PO and tells Padme that he was built to help his mother around the house. Padme tells them that the republic outlawed slavery. As Anakin’s mother tells Padme, the republic does not exist out here. Anakin suggests to Qui Quon Jinn that I will help you. Anakin suggests to Qui Quon Jinn, you can have me race in the Pod Race and that I can help you get the money you need to buy the parts necessary to fix your ship. There is no choice but to let Anakin help them as his mother tells Padme and Qui Quon Jinn.

The movie will progress with Anakin Skywalker racing in the Pod Race against Sabula. Sabula is one of the best racers out there. There is one reason to why that is. He cheats. He will take pieces off the other racers’ pods so that will give him the advantage. Anakin Skywalker will get help from Qui Quon Jinn, and this will allow him to win the race. This will give the parts that Qui Quonn Jinn, Padme, R2D2, and Jar Jar Binks need to get off Tatooine. The farting of the animal before the race is not necessary. There is no need to have fart jokes in Star Wars. The original trilogy did it with clever jokes, not fart jokes.

The movie will progress with Anakin Skywalker, Padme, Qui Quon Jinn, Obi Wan Kenobi, Jar Jar Binks, along with Queen Amidala to Coruscant. As is shown in the movie, Coruscant is a city planet. There is no part of the planet that is not a city. You wonder how they get their food. They get it from the other planets in the galaxy. They will meet up with Chancellor Valorum. As Qui Quon Jinn tells Chancellor Valorum, he needs to speak with Jedi council at once.

Qui Quon Jinn tells the Jedi Council that the came into an encounter with Darth Maul. Darth Maul would have attacked Qui Quon Jinn on Tatooine when he was getting Anakin on the ship. This is where Anakin meets Obi Wan Kenobi. Qui Quon Jinn lets them know that Darth Maul is a Sith. As the Jedi council tells Qui Quon Jinn, the Sith had been extinct for a Millenia. Qui Quon Jinn lets the jedi council know that he discovered Anakin Skywalker, and you need to consider him to be trained as a jedi. The council is hesitant about this but agrees to have Anakin Skywalker come before them.

Senator Palpatine tells Queen Amidala that you must consider a no confidence vote for Chancellor Valorum. Queen Amidala tells Senator Palpatine, he has been our biggest supporter. Senator Palpatine convinces her that he is corrupt, and he is in the pocket of the trade federation. She gets easily deceived by Senator Palpatine and agrees to have him voted out of office by the senate. As Palpatine tells her, the senate will elect a new chancellor, a strong chancellor. This is how Palpatine gets to power. It is no different from Julius Caesar or Adolf Hitler. They got elected and once they got their power, they make sure no one else can get it.

The movie will progress as Qui Quon Jinn finds out that the Jedi council will not allow Anakin Skywalker not to be trained. As Yodi would have told Anakin Skywalker earlier, I sense great fear in you. As Anakin asks him, what does that have to do with it. Anakin Skywalker is worried about losing his mother. As Yodi tells him, it means everything. Fear leads to anger, anger leads to hate, hate leads to suffering. That is true. One of the four freedoms that Franklin Roosevelt talked about is freedom of speech, freedom of religion, freedom from want, and freedom from fear. If you give into fear, you will believe that you are free, but you are not. If you give into want, you are not free. To do what you want is not freedom, it is license. Palpatine wants power. If all do what they want, it can hurt other people and make them less free. You are not as free as you think you are.

The movie will progress as Queen Amidala will go back to Naboo with the two Jedi that have been protecting her. This will lead them to having to fight off the trade federation droid army. They will need help with the Genkans. The fight with ships is awesome along with the fight with droid army against the Genkans. The battle is a diversion to allow Padme Amidala with her captain to take back the throne room. Anakin Skywalker will be a cockpit with R2D2. It is a Naboo starfighter. That type of vehicle is later used by the Mandalorian in the Book of Boba Fett, and the third season of the Mandalorian. The fight with the Jedi against Darth Maul is awesome. Anakin Skywalker helps Padme with the droids. The ship is on autopilot. The problem is having Anakin Skywalker put on a helmet that is child size. This does not make sense. He should be putting on a helmet that is too big. Yes, it is obvious, but obvious in this case it would have been funny. This is using ordinary situations and making it funny. Anakin Skywalker would have been forced to take it off and must fly without the helmet. This is not using fart jokes. It is not necessary to go to the lowest common denominator.

As not to be revealed, nothing more will be revealed here.

I will give you, my rating. I give Star Wars: Episode I: The Phantom Menace, a 6 out of 10. This rating I gave is very comparable to other ratings given by other people. Most average ratings are around this. Most letter grades have it around a C. This movie is not the best of all, but it is not the worst either. The relationship between Anakin and Padme is good. Their connection feels real. Darth Maul is awesome and terrifying. Darth Maul using a double-bladed lightsaber is very cool. His lightsaber is based off a Bo staff. Bo Staffs are that length of his lightsaber. Instead of being made off wood, this lightsaber can cut you and can kill you. As was pointed out in this review, there is no need for fart jokes in Star Wars. Jar Jar Binks is a bad version of Steve Urkel. Steve Urkel is smart but clumsy. Jar Jar Binks is an uncoordinated buffoon. Steve Urkel is annoying, but you can get behind him. The movie showing how Palpatine got to power is good. Every dictator usually does it by more subtle means. It is usually not by force. Look at Donald Trump and tell me if he does possess those tendencies of wanting to be a dictator. The idea is good to go back to find out how Anakin Skywalker became Darth Vader. It helps to understand how the Jedi found him and trained him. The jedi council are hesitant to train him, but he does get trained by Obi Wan Kenobi. The idea is good, the execution needed work. I would have made Jar Jar Binks not to be so stupid. That would have been my improvement. Anakin Skywalker as mentioned before when he is in the Naboo starfighter, needs his helmet be too big for him. Yes, it is obvious, but it would have been funny. It would have been clever to use the ordinary and make it funny.

Hello everyone, welcome to the Mattacritic. This is Matthew Hemenway and Happy belated Mother’s Day. Before I start this review, please subscribe to this channel or blog by clicking on my name of Matthew Hemenway and become a follower of my blog or hit the notification bell at the bottom of this video. Please consider signing up for my newsletter so you can stay up to date of what is on my website, and you will be notified of any new posts that I put on my website of Mattacritic. In this episode of the Mattacritic, I will be reviewing Star Wars: The Bad Batch Season 3 that is currently on Disney+. I will also do live trailer reactions and take questions and ask you questions on air for you to respond in the chat. I will let you know when that happens. The series will start off with Omega being on the planet that Dr. Hemlock has her after he took her there to force Nala Se who was the one who created the clones, and the Empire wants to use her to make more of them. In the first episode, it will remind the viewer what happened to Tech. Tech told Wrecker, when have we ever followed orders. Tech knew the only way they all did not die is if he sacrificed himself to save the whole team. The emperor wants to find specific DNA in the clone. He is looking for M class blood. Dr. Hemlock is torturing the clones to condition to become obedient soldiers. Echo was hoping to help Captain Rex find where Dr. Hemlock took these clones so that he could rescue them. Omega hopes she can escape from her prison, but she does not want to leave Crosshairs behind. I will give you my rating at the end of this review. I hope this episode will inspire you to read, watch, and learn.

Before I continue this review, please remember that I will give you an analysis of the text and whatever rating I give you is my opinion. This does not mean that you must agree with me. I never always agreed with any of the reviewers that I would have read or listened to. What I always admired is that they gave what they saw in the text he or she was reviewing, and that individual would have given his or her honest opinion. This is what I do.

Thank you for being a follower of my channel or my newsletter.

As was mentioned before, Omega is looking for a way to escape from the prison that she has been put in. Emerie Karr is a clone like Omega. Emerie Karr told Omega in the final episode of Season 2 that she is Omega’s sister. Omega hopes to help Nala Se as well as Crosshairs. It is no doubt that Crosshairs served the Empire, but he believed that he was doing the right thing in serving them. As the viewer knew from Season 2, the empire betrayed Crosshairs and he thought that he was a good soldier. He realized he was wrong, and that the empire only wanted to use him as a tool. Mayday needed medical attention, but one of the officers of the empire refused to help him. He killed that officer because of what happened to Mayday. This is an example of how an authoritarian government does not care about what happens to its citizens or soldiers if they do not do what it wants. If anyone thinks their lives would be better under a king or emperor, that person is delusional at best. It is not. This Season will show that it is not the case.

Omega learns from Nala Se that you want to get out of. If Emerie Karr finds out that you have M class blood, then she will tell Dr. Hemlock. This will be bad news for Omega and Nala Se who had been destroying her blood samples to protect her from this happening. Nala Se knew that if this happened, it would be bad news for Omega. Omega must plan her escape to help Crosshairs get out of the prison they are in.

Omega and Crosshairs escaped with the help of Nala Se because she gave Omega a pad that allowed her to access codes to get through parts of the facility that is run by Dr. Hemlock. Omega finds Crosshairs, and she goes to the part of the facility where a pet is kept. It is where earlier she helped the animal that she cared for escape. She helps Crosshairs escape. Omega and Crosshairs escape. Omega feels discouraged when the ship they try to steal does not work. Crosshairs remind her that it is okay; we will figure it out. They do, and they both escape the planet.

Dr. Hemlock will find out from Emerie Karr that Omega has the M class blood they have been looking for. M class blood can only be one thing. It was mentioned in the Prequels. In the Phantom Menace, the first Star Wars movie of the prequels, was called midichlorians. It was an important factor if an individual possessed the force. This is why the empire wants her to. There will be another reason as well. No, Omega is not the only one they have and wanted.

Omega and Crosshairs get to a planet, and Omega is trying to convince a droid to help them get on a ship without chain codes. They must have chain codes to get on a ship. This is where it gets challenging. Omega tries to win money by gambling and playing games. It gets harder. Their pet gets captured, and they must rescue it. One of the Imperial officers knew they were from the planet that Dr. Hemlock was on. Omega and Crosshairs must figure out how to get off the planet. They steal a shuttle, and they escape. They got to the planet, and Hunter and Wrecker found her with Crosshairs. Omega told Hunter and Wrecker; her escape would not have been successful if she and Crosshairs did not work together. With them both working together is why their escape was successful.

The season will continue with them meeting up with the Echo on the planet that reminds a viewer of Hawaii. This is where they will go to a planet that is a snowy and ice planet. This planet is like the planet that Crosshairs was on when he lost Mayday. It reminds him of that. As he tells Hunter, the empire betrayed me first. He does not tell Hunter that it was because they would not help Mayday when he needed medical attention. As one of the imperial officers told him, it would be a waste of the empire’s resources if they helped Mayday. This just shows how cold and calculating they are. They feel like they are getting close to the base. They hope they can find it.

As Captain Rex told Hunter, Wrecker, and Crosshairs, you had better figure out why the empire wants Omega. Your lives will not be safe until you figure out why the empire does want her. Both Captain Rex and Echo found out from a clone that was looking for Omega. A bunch of clones come to take Omega from them. As Captain Rex told them, you cannot do this. You must consider if you are on the right side of history. They let them escape.

The season will progress and Phee Genoa is played by Wanda Sykes. Wanda Sykes has been in movies like Evan Almighty. She has a dry sense of humor about her. Her humor is not crude. If you watch her in the Atkins ads, her humor shows up there. It is

. Wanda Sykes made fun of Rob Lowe when he was eating a candy bar claiming to lose weight. That was funny. Even in the first episode of the second season of the Bad Batch, she showed that humor there. I will play the ad with Rob Lowe and Wanda Sykes that is an Atkins ad.

Phee Genoa said that she could not believe how funny the clones looked. Omega was a special one since she did not look like any of the other clones. Phee Genoa will meet Crosshairs and Crosshairs is under the impression that she does not like him. She does. As Omega told him, she is freeing treasures. In a sense, Phee Genoa is a treasure hunter or a pirate. Phee Genoa is like Han Solo or Lando Calrissian. They were scoundrels or card players or con artists, but they still had a code. They did not like dealing with the empire. Phee Genoa is like that as she does not like the Empire.

Phee Genoa tells them if you want to find a place or someone who can help you with knowing what Omega is, you need to find a bounty hunter. Phee Genoa told Hunter and Wrecker that you need to find Fennec Shand. Yes, Fennec Shand, who was in the first season of the Bad Batch, makes an appearance this season. Fennec Shand’s first appearance in Star Wars was in the first season of the Mandalorian, which is a good series. Fennec Shand will help Wrecker and Hunter find out who can help them if they help her. Fennec Shand was also in the Book of Boba Fett, which I reviewed for this channel. They agree to do that, and they help her by catching her bounty. Fennec Shand ends up helping them.

The person who finds them is named Asajj Ventress and she is a gray character. She worked for the Separatists, but she wanted to help Omega. Hunter, Wrecker, and Crosshairs do not trust her. Assajj Ventress tells them if I told Omega that she could wield the force then I would have to take Omega so she could be trained, and she would have to leave you. You must understand that the empire will not stop looking for her until they find her.

Cad Bane is back in this season of the Bad Batch. He made an appearance in the first season of the Bad Batch, and he was in the Book of Boba Fett. He captures a child that ends up later for the empire. He is a bounty hunter, and his only loyalty is money. The empire is paying bounty hunters to find children and take them to experiment with. This is where Emerie Kar finds out what is happening. She is feeling conviction and guilt about what is happening.

The season will later progress with Omega getting captured by the empire and taken back to the planet with Dr. Hemlock. She realizes that she must do this to help the people of the planet that reminds the viewer of Hawaii. She decides to go with the clone that was looking for her as well as the stormtroopers. This will cause the Bad Batch to rescue her later.

As not to be revealed, nothing more will be revealed here. It does bring the viewer to the climax and the conclusion of the series.

I will give you, my rating; I give the Bad Batch Season 3, a 10 out of 10. It was fun, but it tells an important story. This series does an excellent job of showing the empire’s oppression. The first season I reviewed had the appearance of Saw Guerra. As he told the Bad Batch, yes one war was fought over the separatists, but a new war started. He called it the civil war. It was not considered a rebellion yet. That will not show up later. It was mentioned in the last episode of the Bad Batch. What happens at the end of the series? What is the result of Bad Batch and Omega? What happened to Dr. Hemlock? Who survives? Who does the Bad Batch turn to for help to infiltrate where the planet that Omega was being kept on? Please leave your answers in the comment section below. The series deals well with the oppression of the empire and how the empire has no boundaries in what they can do. There are no checks and balances when you have one individual controlling all the power. Absolute power corrupts absolutely.

In this video, I will give you my thoughts on the Acolyte trailer that is part of the Star Wars universe. I will watch it with you and give you my thoughts after we watch it together. It is

This trailer is awesome. This trailer shows a person who is looking for retribution. This person was a jedi who gets deceived by the Dark side and is convinced that she is doing what is right. This person manipulates her into believing that she must do this. She starts murdering jedi. The one who trained her told the others he must be the one to stop her. She was his student and wanted to find a way to stop her. It reminds the viewer of elements from a thriller. It is like watching a Bosch episode or a Reacher episode. She is looking to check the jedi off like she is checking off a murder board. This has become a game for her, and this will be deadly. One of the things it shows is that it says no one is safe from the truth? What truth do they mean? It is a plot twist, but this is powerful storytelling.

Training swords is very similar to how a person learns to wield a sword. As I mentioned before, I did martial arts such as Tae Kwon Do. I took a sword class, and I will bring out the training sword which I have. It is made of wood and that is important for a person to have. You never train a person with a real sword that is made of metal until the master is ready to train them. It is no different with training Jedi to wield a lightsaber. You do not let them use that weapon until they have skills of using the training sword 1st.

The individual at the end is very similar to Kylo Ren and reminds him of the viewer. It is awesome. Kylo Ren was taken from Darth Revan. Is Darth Revan ever going to be in Star Wars? That is the question. Do you believe Darth Revan will be in Star Wars. Please leave your answer in the live chat or the comment section below if you are watching this video after the live stream.

The Acolyte has a clip where the one that gets deceived by this individual that the Jedi are evil is throwing knives at one of the female jedis. The knives are made from real metal and not from Kyber crystal. There is a book that talked about Jedi using swords made from metal before they were made from Kyber crystals. It is called the Dawn of Jedi which I have right here. I will play the clip to watch. It is

.

Another trailer that I saw recently is the Lego Star Wars: Rebuild the Galaxy trailer. I will watch the trailer with you, and I will give you my thoughts on the trailer. I will play it now. It is

The trailer is awesome. What I saw in this trailer is that the building blocks of the galaxy are literally falling apart. It is crazy as the Lego Sig says there are X-Wing Tie fighters. It is crazy to say the least. You see Ewok bounty hunters which is not a common theme in Star Wars. The Millenium Falcon looked sinister and not like the ship fans usually expect it to look. There was a fan theory that believed Jar Jar Binks was really a Sith. At the end of the trailer, you see Jar Jar Binks looks like a Sith lord, and he had a red lightsaber instead of the other common ones such as green and blue that are commonly used by the Jedi.

What do you think they are trying to do in this Star Wars special? Please leave your answers in live chat or in the comment section if you are not watching this video live. Thank you. It is not supposed to be released until fall. The last Lego Star Wars Special, which was called Summer Vacation, was awesome. We will see what happens in the fall after this special is released on Disney+.

Here is a picture of Disney+ and my thoughts of them doing live TV on there. I am not sure; I know other platforms have done it like Paramount+. It will be seen by May 14, 2024, if that works. They are going to play live WNBA games on May 14, 2024, on Disney+.

I will start to review all Star Wars movies. I know they have been talking about it. I will bring insight into why I believe they are relevant and give you thoughts on those movies.

Here is the written portion of the review, if you rather stay here and read it here:

Hello everyone, welcome to the Matacritic. This is Matthew Hemenway. Before I start this episode, please subscribe to this channel, and hit that notification bell to be notified of any episodes at the bottom of this video or blog post. In this episode of the Mattacritic, I will be reviewing and analyzing The Rules of Threes: A Novella by Jeffrey Deaver. This book is 260 pages long. This is not an exceptionally long read. The story will be about Constant Marlowe, who is a DCI investigator for the state of Illinois. The name of Illinois comes from a name of a Native American tribe. The book will explain this. Constant Marlow is working in Clark Valley to find the BRK killer who has been terrorizing the town of Clark Valley. She works with Frank Tremain and Zo Eventide who works for the Clark Valley Sheriff Department. Frank Tremain is the Sheriff and Zo Eventide is one of the deputies that works for the Sheriff. Zo Eventide is paired with Constant Marlow in finding the BRK killer before this individual strikes again. Zo Eventide and Constant Marlow work well together. Constant Marlow is a female police investigator who works for the state of Illinois. The BRK killer likes females that have dark hair, so the killer is raping and killing these females. This is a person who wants to live in his sexual fantasy and wants to impose his sexual fantasy on his victims. There will be several possibilities of who the killer is. I will give you my rating at the end of this episode. I hope this episode will inspire you to read, watch, and learn.

Before I continue this review, remember I will give you an analysis of the text and whatever rating I give you is my opinion. This does not mean that you must agree with me. I never agreed with any of the reviewers that I would have read or listened to. What I always admired is that they gave what they saw in the text he or she was reviewing, and that individual would have given his or her opinion. This is what I do. Whatever rating I give, you need to know it is my honest opinion. I will never lie to you. If you do not agree with me no matter what rating I give you, that is fine with me. This channel or blog is meant for reading, watching, and learning. I always hope that inspires you to think critically. You know that I go through texts carefully as you can tell that I have looked at them and give detailed analysis of what I see. I hope that helps you. Thank you for being a follower of my channel and my newsletter.

As was mentioned before the BRK killer is attacking females that have dark hair. This killer is targeting females that are in their 20’s. You would think this killer is an older man. The reason that is the case there is a man that goes by the name of Joseph Ray Whelan. Joseph Ray Whelan is stalking around looking to find someone. The reader will think he is after witnesses that may have seen him. It appears that he is a stalker. A stalker is someone who watches someone, and they are obsessed with that individual.

The book will throw twists and turns. What the reader thinks he or she knows, he or she does not know. It is great writing. It is great storytelling when the reader cannot figure out what is going on in the story. Jeffrey Deaver knows how to get the reader to guess what he is doing.

Frank Tremain is the Sheriff of Clark Valley, but he is also a forensic scientist. He knows how to break down the evidence at the crime scene. He is good at CSI. He tells Constant Marlow that he had to learn how to do it since there is not enough in the budget for the town for the Sheriff department to hire a forensic scientist or a CSI.

The people that saw the killer are the Hope family. The Hope families’ names are Glen Hope, Liz Hope, Tamara Hope, and Erik Hope. It is assumed that since they are witnesses, they must be innocent. That would make sense, but this book does well to make the reader think about that. What you know is what you think you know you do not.

Glen Hope is the father of the Hope family and is married to Liz Hope who is the mother of the Hope family. Tamara Hope is the only female child of the Hope Family and Erik Hope is the one of the male children of the Hope Family. There is another male child but is not in the picture. His name is Jason Hope. It is believed that he is dead, but is he? What is the status of Jason Hope. Is he dead or is he alive? Please leave your answer in the comment section below. Thank you.

There is a racist group that is called the Eagle Brotherhood, and it is believed they are killing these females. These are not good people, but it does not mean they are the killers. They are looking to scare people that are minorities, and they want to scare Native Americans off their land. This is where this is interesting. The Eagle Brotherhood are modern day Nazis. They do not have death camps, but they still have their philosophy that there is one master race. Their idea is to have the world be of the white race. They want to have people go to Canada. This is where they are not interested in death camps, but they would like their part of the world be of all white people. In their minds to make America great again is to make it white again.

There is a man named Bigot with another man who attacks Constant Marlow and Zo Eventide based off the group of Eagle Brotherhood who are a Nazi group in this story. They attack her because they hate the fact that she is with a person who is of a different race or ethnicity. Constant Marlow used to be a boxer before she became a police investigator. She uses those skills to help beat these two men up that are attacking her and Zo Eventide. They don’t want her to use any weapons. They believed they would have her at a disadvantage. What they do not know is that she is good at hand-to-hand combat. She does not have any weapons like a gun or a police baton. These skills will be important.

There are people who want to eliminate Constant Marlow and Zo Eventide. They want her to be eliminated because they feel they are getting too close. There is a scene in the book where their car gets pushed into the river by another car. This involves Constant Marlow breaking out of the car and having to rescue Zo Eventide before they both drown. They are lucky to survive based on this attack. The reader concludes that there must be a guardian angel watching over them.

Constant Marlow is more determined after this attack. The people who do this believe this will scare her off. All they do is make her more determined to find the truth. She is a bulldog and will do whatever it takes to find these people. There is more than one person in this criminal conspiracy. The BRK killer is not acting alone. The BRK killer has help. Constant Marlow concludes that is the case. This case has a lot of threads and a good detective, given the time he or she needs, can put those threads together. She must solve a puzzle, and each piece needs to fit, so this mystery makes sense.

Constant Marlow is in a relationship with Evan Quill, who is a prosecutor. She also trusts him and knows he is good at what he does. He is a straight shooter. He believes in the law and will apply it fairly. He comes to her and helps her with solving the case of the BRK killer. They are in a hotel room. This relationship is not serious. It is a relationship to have fun.

Joseph Ray Whelan is going around looking for victims, or that is what the reader thinks. It feels like he is the killer who is rapping his victims. He is not; he is a police detective. He is a bulldog. He is looking for the killer that killed and raped his wife. Joseph Ray Whelan believes he is talking to an innocent person, but that person ends up hitting him with a pipe and crushes his skull and kills him. Believing he is the killer is wrong.

As not to be revealed, nothing more will be revealed here. It does bring the reader to the climax and leave this book open to a new book to be written.

I will give you, my rating. I give the book Rule of Threes by Jeffrey Deaver, an Amazon Original Story, a 10 out of 10. This story is complex and what the reader believes he or she knows, they do not. The twists and turns are good in a mystery or thriller like this. As a reader, the reader wants to have it not predictable. The writer does a good job of having characters that are believable, and characters who appear to be good are not the case. The reader believes that he or she knows who the villain is but does not. Who is the actual killer? Is there one killer or more than one killer? Please leave your answer in the comment section below. Jeffrey Deaver has written other books on Constant Marlow. It is called the Broken Doll series. I have not read them, but if you have a Kindle Unlimited subscription, you can read and listen to them for free. That would be part of a Kindle Unlimited subscription. It is good that it comes with an audio version for a person to listen to. If a person travels, having access to an audio version is a plus.

Hello everyone, welcome to the Mattacritic. This is Matthew Hemenway. Before I start this review, please subscribe to this channel, and hit that notification bell to be notified of any reviews at the bottom of this review. In this episode of the Mattacritic, I will be reviewing and analyzing the book While Justice Sleeps by Stacey Abrams. Some background on Stacey Abrams, she was the one that ran for governor of Georgia twice and lost twice to Brian Kemp. She is a state legislator from Georgia. She is an advocate for fair elections and has a playbook on how to save our democracy and our country of the United States of America. It starts with getting people out to vote and understanding that elections have consequences if you do not vote. Please vote this November of 2024 and every election after this one. If you want your government to work for you, you must vote so that it can. I am cautiously optimistic if we do this, it will save our country from going into an authoritarian regime. This book will deal with a president that believes he is above the law and there is a plot to have this supreme court justice dealt with that has been a throne in the president’s side in terms of doing the president’s agenda. This sounds too much like what is happening now in real life. This is happening with the MAGA movement that has penetrated our local up to our federal governmental agencies. I know there will be those out there that will say that I am getting political about this. This is not political. When George W. Bush, who was the last republican president before Donald Trump was not a dictator because he left and did the peaceful transfer to Barack Obama and Barack Obama did that to Donald Trump, but Donald Trump did not do that to Joe Biden. Instead, he led an insurrection against the United States of America. Once their term was up or that candidate lost, they always left the office peacefully. Not until Donald Trump did this happen no matter the party of departing president. Brandon Stokes in this book will have Major Vance working for him to kill Justice Wynn and this is where the conspiracy lies in place. He wants to put another conservative justice so that he can claim to his base that he did this. I will give you my rating at the end of this review. I hope this episode will inspire you to read, watch, and learn.

Rest of Review and Rating of the Book While Justice Sleeps written by Stacey Abrams

Before I continue this review, remember I will give you an analysis of the text and whatever rating I give you is my opinion. This does not mean that you must agree with me. I never always agreed with any of the reviewers that I would have read or listened to. What I always admired is that they gave what they saw in the text he or she was reviewing, and that individual would have given his or her honest opinion. This is what I do. Whatever rating I give, you need to know it is my honest opinion. I will never lie to you. If you do not agree with me no matter what rating I give you, that is fine with me. This channel or blog is meant for reading, watching, and learning. I always hope that inspires you to think critically. You know that I go through texts carefully as you can tell that I have looked at them and give detailed analysis of what I see. I hope that helps you. Thank you for being followers of my channel or my blog.

As was mentioned before in this review, President Stokes is looking to use Major Vance to get rid of Justice Wynn to get his conservative justice on the bench. He wants to stack the court with his conservative justices. Justice Wynn will find out there is a conspiracy with an American biotech company and an Indian company. Justice Wynn will take a drug that will cause a coma and it will make it, so he does not wake up until someone helps him to do it. Justice Wynn has Boson’s disease which is uncurbable. The merger between these companies may not save him but can save the life of his son Jared Wynn.

Nurse Lewis will find him, and she will call 911 to get him to a hospital. This goes against the orders that were given to her by Major Vance who is working for Homeland Security. Nurse Lewis was supposed to let Justice Wynn die, not save his life. This will unfortunately lead to her getting killed by Major Vance.

Avery Keene, a brilliant law clerk, will later find out that she has been named Justice Wynne’s caretaker. She is shocked by his decision to do this, but it will become clear to her why Justice Wynn does this. This will cause her to meet Jared Wynn and Celeste Turner Wynne who is Justice Howard Wynn’s estranged second wife. His first wife died years ago. Justice Howard Wynn is from Georgia.

Avery Keen will have allies such as Jared Wynn, Noah Fox, and her best friend of Lin who is in the medical field. She is not alone, which is good. Each one of these characters will be beneficial to her. Jared Wynn served in the military and understood how to hack computers and track to see if there were any bugs around. This can mean anything to listening devices and hidden cameras. Noah Fox is an attorney and understands the law. Lin, as was mentioned before, has medical knowledge.

Avery Keene will face challenges from Celeste Turner Wynn in the right to have guardianship over Justice Howard Wynn. Celeste Turner Wynn is not worried about her estranged husband’s best wishes. She only cares about one thing, to get lots of money from his death. What she does not know is that Justice Howard Wynn did not leave her any money according to the will he had Noah Fox write for him. He allowed her to do it if Avery did not accept the responsibility but did not allow her to get any money. This will force Avery Keene to accept the role of being Justice Howard Wynn’s caregiver. The person he left his money was to his own son Jared Wynn.

The book will have Avery Keene and Jared Wynn going to Jared Wynn’s childhood home in Georgia that he felt when he was close to his father of Justice Howard Wynn. This will lead them to getting shot and they must figure out how they are going to survive this. They do, but it is not easy.

They will get back to Washington, DC and they must figure out what their next move is. Justice Howard Wynn has put clues to Avery Keene that are like figuring out a chess game. Avery Keene is a great chess player, and this is up her forte. She must figure out what he means and put together the clues that he left her to find. She is smart and she will figure out this game that he has put in front of her.

FBI agent Lee will find out that she is not a criminal. FBI agent Lee is a government servant, and he always wants to find the truth. He is not a sycophant; he always wants to seek justice. This is important. There are good cops and bad cops. He is considered a good cop.

The search for Ani will be important. It will help the reader to understand what happened years ago with certain experiments. The experiment that is discovered is that the Indian government was trying to cover up an experiment that was designed to kill Muslims. Anyone that would think that would not be possible. Hitler and the Nazis executed 6 million Jews, so yes this is possible. The Turks killed 75% of the Armenian population. Watch the Promise and rent it from Amazon and you see why I say why I am saying what we humans have done to each other is horrible. I would take my cat’s love of me. Their love is genuine, and I know how much they love me, and I love them. Believe me, we could learn something from our pets. My cats have all loved me, and in return I love them. To me, it has made me a better person. I know that loving my cats makes me love people better. It is hard to love some people, but it is necessary. If they hate me, that is their problem. If we all focused on love more than hate, this would be a better world to live in.

Jared Wynn will call Ani a murderer and this is understandable. Since this technology was used to kill Muslims. There are two people that want to make this technology work for the better. One is from North Carolina and his name is Nigel Cooper and the other is from India if I am not mistaken. I could be wrong about that one. If I am, please let me know in the comment section below. It could be cure for Borson’s disease which both Justice Howard Wynn and his son Jared Wynn have. This is where this technology can be used for good.

The story will deal with Avery Keene’s mother Rita Keene getting kidnapped by the people who are corrupt working in Homeland security trying to get rid of Justice Howard Wynn by any mean’s necessary. This is where the criminal conspiracy comes into play. This is dangerous and will make it so Avery Keene must decide between her mother Rita Keene or killing Justice Howard Wynn. Avery Keene produces the idea that she will resign Justice Howard Wynn’s position on the court to save her mother.

The story will have twists and turns. It will bring the reader to the climax of this story.

I will give you, my rating. I give While Justice Sleeps by Stacey Abrams, a 10 out of 10. It was fun but tells a complicated story. If you listen to the audio version of this book, she will be on the audio version telling the listener that she was rejected several times. She had friends that told her to keep plugging away. There were publishers at the time she submitted this book who said this would never happen. Ironically, it did. When Scalia died and Mitch McConnel held up his replacement because he did not want to hold hearings for Marland Garland. This to me showed me then back in 2016 what Republicans were then. When they decided to support Donald Trump, it told me they were more interested in power, and they were willing to do what is necessary to keep it. The reason the Founding Fathers produced 3 branches of government is they did not want a monarchy. You have right now, people in government that would like to tear down our democracy. If you do not believe me, you can search for the 2025 project. It will read like what Hitler did in Nazi Germany. Brandon Stokes is like Donald Trump who believes that the law does not apply to him. Major Vance also believes that he is a patriot and what he did was necessary to protect the country. This book proves that these people are criminals and are horrible people. They knew what happened in those experiments that killed those people in this book, but they did not care what happened to them. It is good that it comes with an audio version if a person travels. That is a plus. Please go to Amazon to read or listen to the book. Thank you. The paperback versions is cheaper and you get it out this link to check it out. Thank you.

Hello everyone, welcome to the Mattacritic. This is Matthew Hemenway. Before I start this episode, please subscribe to this channel and hit that notification bell to be notified of any videos or blog posts at the bottom of this video or blog post. In this episode of the Mattacritic, I will be reacting and breaking down the official Deadpool and Wolverine Trailer done by Marvel Studios. This movie is set to be released in theaters on July 26, 2024. This is one movie you want to watch in theaters. If you would rather wait for it to be released to Disney+, then do that. If not, watch it in movie theaters. I will be reacting to the trailer. I will have you watch the trailer and give you my thoughts after the trailer. I hope this episode will inspire you to read, watch, and learn. Here is the trailer now; I will see you after the trailer.

The trailer is awesome. I love how Wolverine looks like Wolverine in the comics. Here is an image to prove my point. In the comics, Wolverine was always wearing a yellow suit when he went to fight bad guys. Yes, Hugh Jackman is playing Wolverine again. This makes sense as Marvel paid him a lot of money. Ryan Reynolds is back as Deadpool. Deadpool needs Wolverine’s help to save his world. As said in the trailer, Wolverine’s world went to hell. The bartender was telling Wolverine earlier in the trailer to get out of the bar. It is very similar to the first X-MEN in that the bartender was telling to get out. Wolverine was known to drink beer. Here is a clip of Wolverine drinking beer and being told by the bartender to get out of his bar. This is after someone tried to kill him and he had to defend himself from that attack. The clip will be played right now to prove my point.

In the trailer, you can see portals that Doctor Strange has been known to use. This is cool to say the least. One of the characters reminds me of the Ancient One. Yes, the one who trained Doctor Strange before he became the Sorcerer Supreme. Wolverine is that character that says he is not a hero. It is mentioned in Logan, a movie that I reviewed for this channel in this link.

If you are wondering, yes blind Al is asking to do drugs. She likes her cocaine. Remember, Blind Al was known to do drugs. Remember in the first Deadpool, Weasel who is played by TJ Miller asks Blind Al if she would like to do some drugs in this link. She says yes to that. She is asking Wade Wilson if he wants do drugs. Wade Wilson tells her at the end of the trailer; it is off limits. One of the slang terms is Forest Bump which makes fun of Forest Gump. Forest Gump starred Tom Hanks and came out 30 years ago back in 1994. That was the year I would have started high school. I finished Eighth grade that year. Hard to believe it has been 30 years since I was 14. She asks him, do you want to build a snow man? You can think of Frosty the Snowman, but this is doing cocaine not building an actual snow man.

In the first trailer of this movie Deadpool and Wolverine, the TVA was in the first trailer. You want to watch the Loki series as they are mentioned in the first trailer. You do not see much of them in this trailer, but it is mentioned that Wolverine failed to save his world according to the TVA. Wolverine must help Deadpool stop what is happening. As Deadpool told him, you are the X-MAN. Any person who knows about the X-MEN, normally would think Wolverine. I hope this movie meets expectations.

Hello everyone, welcome to the Mattacritic. This is Matthew Hemenway. Before I start this episode, please subscribe to this channel and hit that notification bell to be notified of any episodes at the bottom of this video or blog post. In this episode of the Mattacritic, I will be reviewing the movie Morbius that is done by Columbia pictures in association with Marvel that is currently on Disney+. I will go over several topics in this episode. Michael Morbius is fighting a blood disease that will eventually kill him if he cannot find a treatment or a cure for it. He is not doing this for himself; he is also helping his friend Milo, whose real name is Lucian. Michael Morbius is encouraged by his doctor whose name is Dr. Emil Nicholas in Greece for him to go into medicine. This is important so that he can master his skills as a doctor. Michael Morbius is looking at vampire bats. This is true to his character as shown in the 1990’s Spider-Man cartoon show. The character of Michael Morbius is looking for a cure for blood disease. I will also make a comparison with this to leukemia as that is a cancer that attacks the blood. I hope this episode will inspire you to read, watch, and learn.

Rest of Review and Rating of Marvel’s Morbius

As was mentioned before, Michael Morbius is searching for a cure for his and his friend Milo’s blood disease. He hopes he can find a cure for it in vampire bats. This is very similar to Michael Morbius in the 1990’s Spider-Man cartoon show. Michael Morbius wants to help people with the plague. Michael Morbius hopes that the vampire bats will be the answer he is looking for. This will not be easy. In the beginning of the movie, Michael Morbius is down in Costa Rico, and he is hoping that the answer to his problem is there.

Michael Morbius will cut his hand in to attract the bats to him. He is looking to get them transported from Costa Rico to his lab in New York City. Michael Morbius wants to help himself and his friend Milo feel better. He and his friend suffer from this blood disease.

This is like Leukemia as well. What Leukemia does is do its worst damage to the blood marrow. This is where this cancer goes, and it makes it hard for the patient to produce the necessary red blood cells. As in the movie, that is what Michael Morbius needs to consume. He needs to consume human blood after he becomes a vampire. Michael will be encouraged to become a doctor thanks to his friend, Doctor Emil Nicholas. Michael fixed the machine that was meant to keep Milo alive. It had a problem and Michael fixed it. This shows how gifted and smart Michael Morbius is. Here is a screenshot of what Leukemia does. Leukemia is a broad term for cancers of blood cells. The type of leukemia depends on the type of blood cell that becomes cancer and whether it grows quickly or slowly. Leukemia occurs most often in adults older than 55, but it is also the most common cancer in children younger than 15.

Michael Morbius will be in the hospital helping Anna, who is a young girl that is dealing with a blood disease like his and Milo. Dr. Martine Bancroft will be talking to Michael Morbius about what he is doing with the bats. She tells Anna that Doctor Morbius is in trouble. She tells Michael Morbius that you could lose your license. He tells her that we must do something different. I should have been dead years ago. Why am I not if not to fix this? They find out that the bat DNA he gives to the rat is successful.

As stated earlier in the movie, Michael Morbius as a young boy, tells Milo there is something missing from our blood like a piece of a puzzle. That is why we must get an oil change as he calls it. It is like their bodies are not producing enough red blood cells. The machine that Michael Morbius fixes is meant to help them with that.

This will lead Michael Morbius talking to his friend Milo about what he discovered. He told him that there is a cure. Milo was teasing him about Dr. Martine Bancroft and told him that you know that you love her and that there is no cure for that. You can tell there is chemistry between Martine and Michael. Michael Morbius is telling his friend Milo that they need to go on a ship, and it must be in international water. This experiment will break rules, and they need to do it there.

Michael Morbius will be the test subject of this experiment, and he will use that to help himself and hopefully Milo to get cured of their blood disease. This is not going to be easy, but it is necessary for this to work. Michael Morbius gets the serum injected into his body by his friend Dr. Martine Bancroft. This is where he becomes a vampire.

The head of the crew goes down to check it out. This is where Michael Morbius will bust out and he has become a vampire. It worked that it cured him of his disease, but it makes it so that he ends up wanting to consume human blood. Michael Morbius ends up killing them all after one of the crew hit Dr. Martine Bancroft into an object. She is knocked out and is not dead fortunately.

Michael Morbius will change back once it is daylight. This is not uncommon to what Michael Morbius did in the 1990’s Spider-Man cartoon show. Michael Morbius ends up changing back once the sun comes up. He calls for help once he sees the footage from the video. He will wipe the footage clean.

FBI agent Simon Stroud along with agent Rodriguez are looking to figure out what happened to these men. These men were drained of their blood as they find out on the ship. This will cause them to go to New York City to investigate what is going on the boat. They will talk to Dr. Martine Bancroft and have her look at the photos of the men that had their blood drained. She does not know what had happened since she got knocked out by one of those men. Rodriguez asks her, “Do those look like fang marks to you”. As you know, all vampires have fangs according to the myth of vampires.

Michael Morbius realizes that he can do things that he could not do before. He realizes he must consume human blood. He drinks artificial blood in the refrigerator. He does not have a choice if he wants to be sure he does consume any more human blood. He also has bat radar which is a natural form of sonar. He can toss a ball and catch his eyes closed. This makes sense as bats are blind, but their other senses like their hearing are intensified.

Milo comes to see Michael Morbius while he is dealing with being a vampire. Michael Morbius tells him that you do not want to take the serum. The serum has done something terrible to me. It is a curse. Michael Morbius means that the serum is a curse. This serum has caused him to become something he was not intended to be. He does not want that fate for Milo. Convincing Milo, that is another story. The story will prove it not to be true.

The nurse that Michael Morbius works with ends up dead and he is the prime suspect. He is arrested by Agent Simon Stroud and Agent Rodriguez who both work for the FBI. They have a joint task force with the NYPD. It is not uncommon for that to happen. A book review that I did for this channel called the Killer’s Game talks about the FBI and the NYPD working together, and that is known as a joint terrorism task force. To watch the review of A Killers Game, click on this link at

. Both Agent Simon Stroud and Agent Rodriguez tell Michael Morbius that they are not upset with killing those mercenaries on the ship. We are happy to have them off the chart. They are upset with Michael Morbius killing the nurse. What they do not know is that Michael Morbius did not kill her. Michael Morbius needs the artificial blood so that he does not kill anyone else.

Michael Morbius is in detention lockup, and he meets his friend Milo claiming to be his attorney. As Milo tells him, this place is for drug lords and terrorists not for you. We need to get you out of here. As Michael Morbius finds out later that Milo took serum, and he knows this because Milo left his cane in Michael Morbius’ cell.

Michael Morbius will break out of the cell and go after Milo. He tells Milo, I told you not to take the serum. Milo tells him why he should not have taken the serum. I do not want to get hurt all the time. Milo, unlike Michael Morbius has taken the life of being a vampire and he tells Michael Morbius, why should they not feel the pain for a change. It is the idea of a person wanting to make others feel what they feel or feel.

Agent Simon Stroud and Agent Rodriguez of the FBI are searching for Michael Morbius. As Simon Stroud said, now he is laying down officers in my city. They are assuming it is Michael Morbius that is killing these people. They will later learn as they get a CCTV camera that Michael Morbius is not killing these people, it is a new guy.

Michael Morbius will later go to Dr. Martine Bancroft and ask her for help to help him find a way to stop Milo. He tells her on a bus that Milo took the serum. I must stop Milo and I need your help to do it. Dr. Martine Bancroft has a cat and personally the cat is a nice touch. I loved how the cat meowed at her, trying to get her attention. It was talking to her. I have been a sucker for cats since I have had a cat.

The movie will take the viewer through to the end of the story. It will get the viewer to the climax of the story that it is trying to tell.

As not to be revealed, nothing more will be revealed here.

I will give you, my rating. I give Morbius a 10 out of 10. I understand that it did not get rated well, but when I watch this movie, I cannot understand how people do not see how Michael Morbius is true to his character. Just like in the 1990’s Spider-Man cartoon show, Michael Morbius was trying to help those with a blood disease. I will leave a link to sites that I found for leukemia for you to read in the description below in the YouTube video or my blog if you are on my website looking for this information. Leukemia, as I mentioned, will attack the bone marrow and will make it hard for a person to fight an infection as the blood cells are off. There is that piece of the puzzle that is missing that Michael Morbius mentioned when he was a young boy. The piece is missing, and a person cannot put it back together. This inspires Michael Morbius to become a doctor so he can help save his life and his friend Milo. What happens instead is that it ends up turning him into a monster as well as his friend Milo. Michael needs to control this, and he is hoping that he can. There is a joke in the movie about Michael Morbius drinking the reds. This means that Michael Morbius needs that type of blood to stay alive as a vampire. If a person is a wine drinker, you get the joke of which I am. There is red and white wine. There are also red and white blood cells. The white blood cells in one’s body help to fight off infections.

Hello everyone, welcome to the Mattacritic. This is Matthew Hemenway. Before I start this episode, please subscribe to this channel and hit that notification bell to be notified of any episodes at the bottom of this video. In this episode of the Mattacritic, I will be telling you which female stories that I like for International Women’s month. The list will be of females that represent strong female characters and represent that feminine strength that I want to see in a character. A good female character shows grace but knows how to help those when people need that person. Some of the best female characters that I can name are Ashoka, Rey, Kate Bishop, Kamala Khan, and Carol Danvers. I also think of characters like Diana Prince who is Wonder Woman. I may be missing some characters, but I will talk about that more in this episode. There will not be a ton of pictures, the only pictures I will have will be of a story that I talk about. Thank you for understanding. I hope this episode will inspire you to read, watch, and learn.

Rest of my thoughts of Female stories that I like for International Women’s month

A movie that I like to watch is Noelle and I know Noelle is a Christmas movie, but this character of Noelle is doing her best to help her brother Nick become the next Santa. She is showing him the ropes, and he is not getting them. He is not qualified to be Santa as he does not feel that it is his calling. Noelle tells him to take the weekend off. He heard what he wanted to hear and decided to go to Phoenix, AZ to teach Yoga. Noelle will realize that she must make this right. She goes to find him like the parable of the Lost sheep. Noelle will realize that he is not cut out to be Santa. Nick tells her you need to be the new Santa. Noelle grew up in this movie, and she realizes that this is her calling.

A series that I like to watch is the Hawkeye series that has Kate Bishop in her debut series, and she is fun to watch. She comes from a well-to-do family. The Bishops are not just rich, they have a lot of money. Despite her wealthy background, she realizes that her family got involved with a man that is extremely dangerous. His name is Wilson Fisk, and he is Kingpin. Kate Bishop with the help Clint Barton will defeat Kingpin and his thugs of the Track Suit Mafia. Kate Bishop will get Clint Barton to trust her and realize that she is right for this life of a superhero. She is talented in fencing, martial arts, and archery. She has a lot of talent. With the help of Clint Barton, she can flip a coin to hit objects. That is very cool.

A movie that I enjoying watching is Wonder Woman that came out in 2017. The character of Diana Prince is gracious and strong. She and the character of Steve have a deep connection. She gets to know him and decides to help him. She realizes Ares is stirring the pot to say the least. He is causing humans to want to kill each other. He is the god of war, and this makes this necessary for her to stop him. She realizes that humans are not perfect, but love is the answer, not hate. This will defeat Ares because she chooses love over hate. Steve will die in this movie, but Diana Prince decides what she must do.

Share

The series that I like is Parallels. Yes, the three main characters are male, but there is a female character. Her name is Roman. Roman and Victor get transported to another universe while Bilol and Sam get transported to another universe. It is no different in the Multiverse in Marvel and DC where there are different parallel universes where characters have similar characteristics but different outcomes. This is what is happening here. Victor will believe that he is a monster, and this will cause him to self-destruct himself. He is about to go into complete despair, but Roman stops him, and she hugs him, and this causes him to realize he is not alone. This is why Roman is critical. Victor needs her and she makes sure he does not do anything that he regrets. This series only has one season but hopefully it will get a second season.

The series that I like is the first season of Ms. Marvel. She is a character that does not take herself too seriously. Kamala Khan will go to the Avengers convention, and she dresses like Captain Marvel. She will gain power. She saves Zoe who dresses like Ms. Marvel, which is what Carol Danvers dressed like in the earlier versions of the character. Ms. Marvel was her old name. This was not done in the MCU, but that is fine. Kamala Khan must go against Kamran’s mother and must stop her and the people who support her before they let something bad happen. Kamran’s mother believes that she and her family can go back home but find out she is wrong. She must stop Kamran’s mother. If they open the portal and release negative energy which can destroy our reality. Kamala Khan must close the portal. She must help Kamran and his powers need to be controlled. This series will have a clip at the end of Season 1 which will lead into the Marvels.

The series that I enjoyed watching was the Echo. Echo is a deaf character who is an amputee and of Native American heritage. She had her first appearance in the Hawkeye series. Echo’s real name is Maya Lopez. The actor that plays her is deaf, an amputee and of Native American heritage. Maya Lopez will learn that her pain is not what defines her; it is her heart. She was raised by Wilson Fisk, who is Kingpin. She will grow in this series and realize that defeating Wilson Fisk is not by anger and fear it is with love. She will force Kingpin to face his pain, but he runs from it.

A series that I like to watch is Ashoka where Ashoka Tano is looking for Grand Admiral Thrawn. She believes that there are remnants of the Empire looking for Grand Admiral Thrawn. The reason for the republic to be concerned is that Grand Admiral Thrawn is very smart and if he comes back, he can resurrect the Empire and bring those that are loyal to the Empire. She will go to Sabine Wren to help her find out what the device does. If the device needs to be destroyed to stop Grand Admiral Thrawn from returning, it must be destroyed. Ezra was on the Imperial star destroyer in Rebels and was sent with him to another galaxy. Sabine Wren will be concerned with finding Ezra, and this will cloud her judgement. It is understandable that she would want to find Ezra. Ezra helped save Ashoka, but Ashoka sees the bigger picture.

The series that I like watching is Secrets of Sulphur Springs. In that series, Griffin Campbell moves to Sulphur Springs, and he meets Harper. Harper is a strong female character. She kicks the locker, and it opens. They later will find a radio that can take people back in time. When they walk in the bunker, that reminds the viewer of a fallout shelter. Fallout shelter is where people go to protect themselves from nuclear fallout. This is important for people to do this. Griffin and Harper get transported to 1990 and when people thought Savannah to be dead, they find out what happened to her. Savannah ends up in 1960, and this is why people thought that she had just vanished. It will make sense. This series has 3 seasons, and it explains what happened to the Tremont property.

The movie that I like watching is Marvels. I know there are those that may like it or not. This movie shows how women can save the day but also be the main villain. The Marvels have Captain Marvel, Monica Rambeau, and Ms. Marvel goes up against Dar-Ben. Dar-Ben is looking to restore the Cree world of Hala. She wants to make Captain Marvel pay for destroying Supreme Intelligence. She is stealing resources, and it will take Carol Danvers, Monica Rambeau, and Kamala Khan to defeat her. There will be a short appearance of Kate Bishop in the movie. That was cool to see.

A series that I like watching is iCarly that came out in 2007. I have seen all the first season expect the last two episodes. I like the combination of Carly and Sam in this series. They are fun to watch and use comedy when doing their web series. Yes, this is a fictional series. Freddie is the camera man and the tech guy. He makes sure the feed goes through the computer, so they can broadcast online. Carly lives with her brother Spencer, and he is a struggling artist. Carly shows strength when Spencer doubts, he should be an artist, but she helps him to realize that he cannot give up on his dream.

The sequel trilogy in Star Wars starring Rey is a character I like. Rey has a complicated past, but she shows strength, and she knows what she must do. It is the character growth that you want to see in any character. She is one that I like cheering for as she shows the female strength that I like in females. She is gracious but knows the difference between right and wrong. She finds out she is part of a family that is not very well-liked. She ends up being the black sheep of that family.

A movie that I recently reviewed, Double Teamed, came out in 2002 on Disney channel which you can watch on Disney+. I enjoy this movie because it shows Heather and Heidi Burge. They must learn to realize that they are meant to be basketball players. They played at a time when women’s basketball was not a phenomenon. It is not until now that people are more likely to watch women’s basketball. They will later play in Virginia and go to play at WNBA. The movie does an excellent job showing that females can play basketball and that they struggle like any person can.

Hello everyone, welcome to the Mattacritic. This is Matthew Hemenway. Before I start this episode, please subscribe to this channel, and hit that notification bell to be notified of any videos at the bottom of this video. In this episode of the Mattacritic, I will be reviewing and analyzing the Disney Channel Original Movie Double Teamed that is currently on Disney+. To answer the question, why am I reviewing a Disney Channel original movie is that these are quality movies, and they have a lot to say. They usually tell a delightful story, and they are made for kids in mind. It does not mean if an adult watches these movies, they cannot follow them and enjoy them. They can do an excellent job with having a plot but having a message in the story they are telling. The key to any delightful story is having characters that viewers, readers, or listeners can enjoy cheering for. This movie does an excellent job of telling the story of Heidi and Heather Burge. These are two twin sisters who grew up in Redondo Beach, California. This is a city that is outside the Los Angeles area. It is where people who are used to being on the beach, and they enjoy that time. This movie will deal with Heidi and Heather Burge becoming basketball players. They are volleyball players to start off with. I will go over several topics in this episode. I will explain how each of these players grow and become who they are. I will explain how the relationship with Nicky Williams changes and how they will get to know Galen Alderman. I will give you my rating at the end of this episode. I hope this episode will inspire you to read, watch, and learn. To view the clips, please watch the YouTube video above to watch the clips. Thank you.

Rest of the Review of Double Teamed

The movie will start off with Heather Burge working out in her room. Her mother Mary Burge says, “I see that the cattle are back.” She wants to drink her coffee in peace, but no such luck. Larry Burge, who is the father of Heather and Heidi Burge gets the girls ready to go to volleyball practice. The girls come down in the same outfit and Heidi is upset that Heather Burge wears the same outfit. Heather Burge is just upset at it as Hedi Burge is. Their mother tells the two girls to pick a number. They do and end up being seven. They end up picking straws and the shortest straw gets to change outfits. Heidi Burge ends up changing her sweatshirt. This movie takes place in Redondo Beach, CA in 1985. This will look different to those that are used to seeing smartphones. Heck back in 1985, you would be lucky if there were cellphones. Most people did not have cellphones at all. You would have to use a pay phone if you wanted to make a call back then.

They get to school and end up at Volleyball practice. The viewer can see how Heather Dominates against her sister Heidi Burge. Heather Burge is more into it than Heidi Burge, but it does not mean that Heidi Burge is not talented in sports. Their dad, Larry Burge wants Heidi Burge to be more like his other daughter Heather Burge. How can volleyball translate to basketball? I reviewed Big Shot season 2, which you can watch on Disney+, and that season showed how a volleyball player can play basketball. When a player makes a block, it is remarkably like how a volleyball player can score a point. Ava Navarro in the first episode of that season, blocked Louise Gruzinsky shot and that will be shown later in this movie of Double Teamed.

Larry and Mary Burge, the parents of Heidi and Heather Burge, are talking about transferring the twins to a new high school. It is called Palos Verdes High School. It makes sense as earlier before this conversation, Larry Burge was talking to a man that told him that the scouts were looking at his daughter when she was the twins’ age. He was told by that man to get your girls in larger high school where they are more likely to get more exposure. This makes sense. As Larry Burge tells his wife Mary Burge, he gave up making more money at a law firm so that he could be here for the girls. He told her we need help unless you have a rich uncle that I do not know about. The girls will need scholarships. College can be expensive, and most people need help if they want to go to a good school.

The girls will get home, and their father Larry Burge tells both Heather and Heidi Burge, they will be going to a new high school called Palos Verdes. He told them that they were tall and athletic and that they had a gift. He explains to them you got your mother’s genes in how she was a great swimmer, and you have that ability in how you can play volleyball. This is understandable as he tells them that they need to get noticed by the college scouts and land a scholarship at a good college. Heidi Burge gets mad and tells them you will not make go to this Palos Verdes High School. Heather Burge is upset but understands.

The twins of Heidi and Heather Burge got to this new high school of Palos Verdes. They find out that they love this school. Heidi Burge sees the options this school offers, and she enjoys every minute of it. She finds out that this is good. She decides to want to take Italian for her foreign language. Heather and Heidi Burge are getting starred at because they are so tall for their age. Heidi Burge will meet Zoey, and she helps Zoey with the sign. Heidi tells her that she would like to sign up for Drama camp. She and Zoey hit it off.

Heather Burge gets to the gym and takes the stack of volleyballs in the place that allows a person to move several balls. She gets to the gym, and she runs into the coach of the Palos Verdes high school girls’ basketball team. She is unsure about this. He tells her, give it a chance. The coach of the Palos Verdes high school basketball team needs her help as the only talented player he has is Nicky Williams. Heather Burge tells him that she needs to ask her father if he will let her play basketball.

Heather Burge with Heidi Burge is talking to their parents at dinner about what happened in school. As Larry Burge, their father tells them, who knew that the adjustment would be this easy. Heather Burge tells her father Larry Burge that she plans to try out for the basketball team. Her father tells her that is a great idea. You will stay in shape and be ready when you get to volleyball season. Larry Burge asks his other daughter Heidi Burge if she did that. Heidi Burge says no she did not. She told him that she was too busy having a life. Heidi Burge tells both her parents of Larry and Mary Burge that she is going to join the drama club and that she got the part of the tin man in the Wizard of Oz. Her mother Mary Burge tells Heidi Burge that is great. Larry Burge wants Heidi to be more like her twin sister Heather Burge and go out for the basketball team.

The movie will progress with Heather Burge trying out for the team. Nicky Williams is upset that she is not the star anymore. She lets Heather Burge that this is her team, and she wants to be the only player on the team that is the star. Heather Burge will later block Nicky Williams’ shoot and if you look at it, you can make a comparison in how Ava Navarro blocks Louise Gruzinsky shot in Big Shoot Season 2 episode 1. That ability to block is no different than a volleyball player scoring a point. It is the same motion.

The movie will progress, and it will have the viewer find out later that Heidi Burge’s father Larry Burge wants her to go out for the team. After they play basketball, Larry Burge tells her that your future is in sports, not a school play. Heidi Burge blames her sister Heather Burge at first. Heidi Burge tells her twin sister, congratulations I am back in your shadow. I hope you are happy about this. Heather tries to tell her sister that she has nothing to do about this. This was all their dad Larry Burge’s idea for Heidi Burge to play on the basketball team.

Heidi and Heather Burge will be at each other’s throats after this happens. They are fighting like sisters are known to do. They need to get over what happened and deal with what it is. That is easier said than done. Heather and Heidi Burge need to put in the socket.

They eventually must move thanks to Nicky Williams who was jealous of the two twin sisters of Heidi and Heather Burge coming to play for Palos Verdes High school girls basketball team. This will cause the girls to realize eventually what happened and they will have some growing pains with the team. The team will learn that this is all stupid. The Burge sisters and Nicky Williams will be playing with the rest of the team in New York City, and they learn that they have a lot of work left to do. As Galen Alderman tells the three girls of Heidi Burge, Heather Burge, and Nicky Williams they need to learn to work as a team. Yes, Heidi and Heather Burge learn to have a good relationship with Nicky Williams. As Nicky Williams tells them, you least have parents that are there for you and care enough about you to be there for you. She wishes she had what they had. This is why she was acting out in the movie because her dad is not there. The viewer does not know what happened to Nicky’s mother.

The movie will progress with team and the two twin sisters facing challenges. Heather Burge will get her ankle twisted as she was practicing wanting to be the best she can be. She is mad at her sister Heidi Burge having a better game than her that night. Her mother later tells her, there was a swimmer that was always better than me. You must do your best. Do not worry about if there is someone else better than you. Yes, that will happen. When I swam myself, I was not the best swimmer, not by a long shot, but I loved it, and I did my best. When I learned martial arts such as Taekwondo l learned that there was someone better than me, but I always did my best.

As not to be revealed, nothing more will be revealed here. The movie will help the viewer understand what happened to the two twin sisters.

I will give you, my rating. I give the Disney Channel Original Movie, Double Teamed on Disney+, a 10 out of 10. It was fun and does an excellent job of telling the story of what happened to the two twin sisters of Heidi and Heather Burge. They do go to play college ball and later professional ball. This happened thanks to the twin sisters of Heidi and Heather Burge because they went to play basketball for Palos Verdes high school. This movie and the women that played basketball helps in showing girls that they can play sports, and they do not have to do just have to go in fields that is expected of them. They can play college ball and professional basketball. If players like Caitlin Clark, who recently broke Pistol Pete Maravich’s scoring record did not have influences such as players that came before her, who knows if the world would have gotten to see her play. She is an awesome player. These girls of Heidi and Heather Burge were awesome talents, and this does not hurt that they existed.

Hello everyone, welcome to the Mattacritic. This is Matthew Hemenway. Before I start this review, please subscribe to this channel, and hit that notification bell to be notified of any reviews at the bottom of this video. In this episode of the Mattacritic, I will be reviewing and analyzing Deadpool 2 that is currently on Disney+. I will go over several topics in this episode. Deadpool 2 will take place after the first Deadpool. The question is why I am reviewing Deadpool 2, that is simple as Deadpool and Wolverine will come out this year of 2024, and it makes sense to review this movie of Deadpool 2 to help give a refresher. Deadpool will be hired as a contract killer, and he will be after particularly bad people. He will be in China and in other places around the world taking out prominent bad people. In one scene, he was dressed as a stripper, and he killed a person. He had the Whig and everything he needed to have a disguise. This movie will deal with him training as an X-Man and he must learn from Colossus that he needs family and that he must do what he must. He will meet Russell and at first, he does not want to protect the kid, but later, he decides to protect him as this will help in redeeming what happens to Vanessa. He wants to do a slow death from cancer. He will grow in this movie. Yes, he is still the merch with the mouth, and he breaks the fourth wall that he still talks to the audience in this movie. I will make a comparison to the Lizard and explain that later in this episode. I will give you my rating at the end of this review. I hope this episode will inspire you to read, watch, and learn.

Rest of review and rating of Deadpool 2

As was mentioned before, Deadpool feels bad about what happened to Vanessa in this movie. He is smoking a cigarette in this movie, and he shows Logan being impaled by the tree and he is upset at Wolverine. He says, Wolverine rode my coattails with the R rating, and he ups the Anty by dying in that movie. He says, ‘ guess what, I am dying in this movie as well. He tells the audience; “I want to see what I can do to die.” He throws the cigarette in the gas, and it blows up with Deadpool and his body apart. Because of his mutation, he can grow limbs. If you think about it, this is like the Lizard in Spider-Man. Why the Lizard? That is simple as Lizards can grow limbs back. If it loses its tail, it can grow it back and that is why the Lizard did in Spider-Man. Doctor Curt Connors lost his arm in combat, but he uses Lizard DNA to help grow his arm back. It backfires as it turned him into the Lizard and made him into a monster. This would be considered a Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde situation. The Deadpool will feel bad about what happened to Vanessa.

Deadpool was with Vanessa after he had his adventure with killing. This is after he talked to Dopinder about Dopinder becoming a contract killer. Dopinder tells Deadpool that he would like to become a contract killer like him. He tells him that you have a purpose. I want to be your Kirsten Dunst to Tom Cruise like in Interview with the Vampire. Deadpool told Dopinder, “Let’s never speak of this.” Dopinder told Deadpool, you are my Tom Cruise. Deadpool tells Dopinder that you are my Kirsten Dunst. He goes into the apartment and sees Vanessa.

Vanessa tells Wade Wilson that the baby factory is open for business. This is after Wade Wilson gave her the Skee ball token. That is the reference to the first movie when Wade Wilson and Vanessa played Skee ball. Vanessa gave him the IUD, which is a device that keeps her from getting pregnant until she is ready to do so. This is when she tells him that the baby factory is open for business. This means that Vanessa can get pregnant. Wade Wilson tells her, “I want a little boy or a little girl.” To him, it does not matter. He is afraid of being a father because of his father, but Vanessa tells him that kids help us to be better than we used to be. Kids give us that chance. She is right that it is a choice in who we decide we want to be in this world.

Vanessa is right, that it is a choice. I do not have my own kids, but if I did, I would do my best to be a good father to them. It is that I just have not been lucky in finding the right woman. Wade Wilson and Vanessa were lucky to find each other. It is hard to find love, and you must be willing to stay with it. The viewer can tell they are right for each other and that is hard to find.

All this gets ruined when someone breaks into Wade Wilson and Vanessa’s apartment. Wade Wilson tells Vanessa to get down. She does, and he kills all of them expect one of the assailants. He misses it and hits the person with the cheese spreader. That person ends up killing Vanessa and Wade Wilson will jump out of the window and chases that person. That person gets away, but he later ends up being hit by a car. Wade Wilson pulls him out of the car, and he pulls him against him, and they get in front of a truck, and it kills him, but Wade Wilson survives.

The credits will start off with the feeling of a James Bond movie. It was the feeling that a viewer would see Deadpool 2 and the music of how a James Bond movie would start. Just like in the first movie, it has credits written by real villains. Choreography by Blind Al. It is the movie’s way of making fun of itself. It is good that it does this. It will get the viewer back to the story.

Wade Wilson will be at Blind Al, and he is looking for a reason to die. As Blind Al tells Wade Wilson that you will probably do something stupid, knowing you. Wade Wilson tells her, yes Al, you are right, I am going to do something stupid. He puts on his mask after saying that. He is in his Deadpool suit, and this is where it will take the viewer to the beginning of the movie, and he throws the cigarette in the gas barrel.

Wade Wison will be at X-MEN mansion, and he will be dressed in clothes thanks to Colossus. As Colossus tells him, you need family; you cannot afford to be alone. He has survivor’s guilt about what happened to Vanessa. As Colossus told him, you need to get over what you are feeling. Wade Wilson says, you think the studio would have thrown us a bone and given us another X-Man. The viewer will see Beast, and Beast will close the door to the room. Colossus puts Wade Wilson against the wall to knock some sense into him. He needed to be reminded that he is not alone, and he needs to get over his guilt. Colossus tells him that his heart is in the right place. You have a good heart. Wade Wilson hugs Colossus after he tells him that.

Wade Wilson will be sitting with Cerebro on his head, and he tells Colossus that it smells like Patrick Stewart. This is where the movie makes fun of the other X-MEN movies and itself. Wade Wilson tells Colossus; you have a mission. Wade Wilson later learns that Colossus wants them to go with them. It is hard, but Wade Wilson will get in his Deadpool suit. He later meets Russell at a facility that was torturing these kids that are mutants. This so-called Doctor tortures these kids that are mutants. The X-Men are going to help deescalate the situation. Deadpool realizes what this kid tells him after he stops him from hurting people. He realizes he cannot let this kid go back to these people. He shoots the people after calling one of them Jared Kushner. Colossus will later jump on and tells Wade Wilson, you are not judge, jury, or executioner. Wade Wilson tells Colossus that this kid is abused; you can always tell. I fight for what is right, and sometimes that means you must fight dirty. He is right, sometimes there is no choice but to do what you need to do. Colossus is disappointed.

Wade Wilson and Russell later get transported to the Ice Box. This is a better scenario than Russell going back to that man that is hateful individual. This so-called doctor would remind me of those white supremacists. There were these schools that were supposed to take the Indian out of the Indian. I mean Native Americans. A good example would be in 1923, which I reviewed for this channel. I mentioned in that series, white people who used religion tried to take the Indian out of them. They considered them evil. This person in this movie is doing it with these kids who are Mutants and telling them there is something wrong with them.

Wade Wilson will later meet Cable at the Ice Box. He told the kid earlier, without my powers, I am Hawkeye with a bow and arrow. His only superpower is cancer. Wade Wilson will wonder why Cable with the winter solider arm is after him. This makes fun of a lot of the different Marvel content. Cable and Wade Wilson will have a fight. Cable will tell Wade Wilson; he is from the future. He asks Cable, is a dupe step still a thing. Cable tells him dupe step is for pussies. Wade Wilson, you are so dark, are you sure you are not from the DC universe. This will cause Wade Wilson to be thrown out of the prison, and he will have the collar off. He is in the water, and he will try to get to Vanessa in the spiritual realm, but she tells him that his heart is not in the right place. She tells him that kids give us a chance to be better than we are. He realizes that he needs to rescue the kid.

Wade Wilson will be in his Deadpool suit and with Weasel his friend that works at the bar. He and Weasel will be working toward getting the X-Force together. This team will have characters such as Vanisher, Domino, and other people that are on his team. They will have Peter that has no power on the team. They will go after the convoy that is transporting the prisoners from the Ice Box to another prison. This will end in a disaster as most of the team ends up dead expect Deadpool and Domino. Deadpool will run into Juggernaut. Juggernaut will break his legs after Deadpool mentions each issue that Juggernaut has been in such as in a Thor comic. He will later grow his legs back like the Lizard does in Spider-Man in how he grows his limbs back.

As not to be revealed, nothing more will be revealed here; it does bring the viewer to the climax of this story.

I will give you my rating, I give Deadpool 2, a 10 out 10. I know there are people that like it and those that hate it. I personally believed that this movie was done well, and it was a fun movie to watch. It does well in Deadpool breaking the fourth wall. He had a scene with Cable when Cable told Deadpool that he had one charge to get here and one to get back home. Deadpool will tell him that he says that it is lazy writing. The movie does well in making fun of itself and stays true to Deadpool’s character.

Hello everyone, welcome to the Mattacritic. This is Matthew Hemenway, Before I start this episode, please subscribe to this channel, and hit that notification bell to be notified of any videos at the bottom of this video. Thank you. In this episode of the Mattacritic, I will be reviewing and analyzing Marvel’s Deadpool that was done by 20th Century Fox and is currently on Disney+. When Disney bought Fox, it gained the rights to the X-MEN and Fantastic Four characters. They also got access to the unedited versions of the Star Wars movies. It is a question of whether people will get to see that, but that can be explained in another episode. Deadpool is known as the merch with the mouth. Why am I reviewing Deadpool? Because the movie Deadpool and Wolverine will come out in theaters in July of this year of 2024. I already reviewed Logan on this channel. Deadpool is also a character that breaks the fourth wall. He talks to the audience and likes She-Hulk which I reviewed for this channel; he knows that he is a character in someone else’s story. The reason he is called the merch with the mouth, is like Spock would have said in Star Trek IV: The Voyage Home is that he uses colorful metaphors. This means Deadpool uses foul language. He is known for cursing. He will say words like motherfucker, fuck, and shit. This is his character. When he was done in X-MEN Origins: Wolverine, his mouth was sewn up and people got mad at Fox for doing that. It looks like Marvel Studios in the trailer of Deadpool and Wolverine are going to keep Deadpool as he was in the first two Deadpool films. He knows he is talking to the audience. In the first Deadpool film, Deadpool will talk to the audience, and he is after Francis for ruining his good-looking face. Remember Wade Wilson got cancer, and he must get treatment to help with that. Mutation is the only thing that saves his life. It made him ugly, but he is alive. He escapes from Francis as Francis planned to sell him as a super slave to be used by other countries. I will give you my rating at the end of this episode. I hope this episode will inspire you to read, watch, and learn.

Rest of Review and Rating of Deadpool

Wade Wilson is fighting with the people on the interstate. This movie makes fun of itself, as produced by Asshats. Directed by overpaid Toole. This movie is not meant to be serious, and this is good. He will be with the cab driver and is looking to find Francis. As he shows the cab driver, Francis made him look ugly, and he wants to make Francis pay for that. He tells the cab driver to let him off here. He told him he would give him a high five as he does not have his wallet while he is working. It will leave a bulge in his pants when he has a wallet in it. Deadpool gets out and he will jump off the bridge once he sees the car that he is looking for. It will cause it to go into another car, and it will have a lot of other cars to get damaged on the interstate. Wade Wilson is after Francis. He kills the other man. He shoots 12 bullets. He makes a joke in the air while in the SUV. Did I forget to turn the stove off? How many of us have done that? I will have that feeling that I left the cooktop on and realize later that I did not do more times than not. He will throw one of the men on top of the highway sign and that will kill person on the impact of that hit. There is a scene where Deadpool will put the 2 swords in one of the men. He will say to the audience; my boyfriend told me that this was a superhero movie. He is acting like one of the girls. He says, “I am not a superhero. He has always operated on the gray. In the ultimate Spider-Man, which you can watch on Disney+, Spider-Man tells Deadpool, you are a mercenary. He is. It is simple.

He will later flashback the viewer to before he becomes Deadpool. Wade Wilson was in the military, and he served in the Special Forces. If the viewer thinks about this, Wade Wilson is a play on Slade Wilson who is Deathstroke, and he served in the military as well. He is a mercenary like Wade Wilson. Both are good with guns, and both are good with swords. That is ironic when you think about these two characters. Wade Wilson is Marvel’s version of Slade Wilson. They both deal with death. They are both known to be killers. Wade Wilson is not going to be like Spider-Man or Bat Man who will not kill his or her enemies. Both Deadpool and Deathstroke tend to kill their enemies. Yes, Deathstroke tends to be a villain, but he is a gray character himself. He is not always a villain. Both Deadpool and Deathstroke can be antiheroes.

Wade Wilson will be with his friend Weasel, played by TJ Miller. Why does TJ Miller sound familiar? He is familiar as he was in Big Hero 6 and played Fred who ends up being the son of a superhero. His dad will talk to Fred and tell him at the end of the movie that we have a lot to talk about. TJ Miller was in Transformers: Age of Extinction, and he played well in that movie. Weasel will help his friend Wade Wilson. He is a bartender in this movie. Wade earlier helped a girl with a stalker, and he threatened to kill this guy, if he did not leave her alone. While in the bar, he meets Vanessa and his relationship with her will start from there.

Wade Wilson will be with Vanessa for quite some time. He and Vanessa have great chemistry. The viewer can see that. Wade Wilson will ask Vanessa to marry her when it is Christmas. He will look at her and pass out. He later is at the doctors, and the doctor tells him that you need to get treatment. Vanessa tells Wade Wilson; we can fight this. Wade Wilson tells her that he has cancer in the brain, lungs, liver, and prostate, all things I can live without. No, he needs to have those to live with. I can relate to this as my mother had breast cancer in 2001 and is a cancer survivor.

The one that looks like Agent Smith comes to the bar and asks Wade Wilson if he wants to get help and become a superhero. Wade Wilson rejected him at first. He realizes he needs to get treatment for his cancer. He decides to do this for Vanessa, so she does not have him as a corpse. He will go there and meet Ajax as he likes to call himself. Ajax is funny as he got that from dish soap. Wade Wilson will find out his real name is Francis. As he told one of the other patients named Cunningham at the hospital, there is no way his real name is Ajax, he got that from dish soap. Ajax can also be used as a powder as well as dish liquid. Wade Wilson made a joke about not making the suit green or animated. As viewers know, he was making fun of a movie that Ryan Reynolds starred in called the Green Lantern. Green Lantern was slammed by critics. It was a bad movie.

Wade Wilson will later get turned into the uglier version of himself. The stress that he was put through caused him to mutate. As Ajax tells him, he must put Wade through this stress for you to mutate, or if that does not work, you will die. He injected him with a serum that was going to cause his mutant gene to become active. He will later escape from there. Wade Wilson will call him Francis. Francis wanted to sell them as slaves to be used by their buyers.

Wade escapes from there and he encounters Vanessa. He sees her but does not encounter her. He hears people talking about him while he keeps the hood up to be sure no one sees him. He is afraid that Vanessa will not accept him. This is like when Ben Grimm in the 2005 version of Fantastic Four wanted to see his wife and when she does; she runs away from him as she cannot accept how Ben Grimm looks. This is different as Wade Wison avoids Vanessa and does not approach her.

Wade Wilson will encounter his friend Weasel, and this will be where he will show him what he looks like. Weasel will tell Wade Wilson; it cannot be that bad. Wade Wilson shows him, and Weasel says you look like an avocado. Weasel also tells Wade Wilson; you also look like Freddy Krueger. You can star in your own horror movies. Weasel also tells Wade Wilson that you should wear a mask. Weasel tells Wade Wilson you need to produce your own code name. One name came up such as scare devil which makes fun of daredevil. Captain Deadpool. No, just Deadpool.

Wade Wilson makes his costume. The suit will be white to start with, but later it will be the red suit that fans know it to be. It is remarkably like how the 2002 version of Spider-Man had Tobey Maguire in a different Spider-Man costume, but it will be the ones that fans expected that costume to be. In the white suite, Deadpool gets blood on it, and he is told by the blind woman named Al at the laundromat to use lemon with Selzer water to get blood out or wear red and she calls him a dumbass.

Wade Wilson later creates the red suit, and he will be looking for his enemies. He will later catch us up until he gets in the cab with Dopinder. He will later get us to Al and tells her that you are blind after she tells him that love is blind. Wade Wilson does not have any faith that he will get Vanessa back since it looks like he does. He makes the joke; did Ryan Reynolds get where he was without his good looks? He says no to that.

The movie will progress, and Stan Lee will have a cameo in the movie as he is playing a DJ in a strip club that Vanessa is working at. Angel Dust, who is played by Gina Carano, will be with Francis and they will take Vanessa prisoner.

Deadpool will get help, and he will pack up all the guns. He puts them in his backpack. He later will get help from Colossus and Negasonic Teenage Warhead. It is a play on words like Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles. It will lead to a battle that will be epic.

As not to be revealed, nothing more will be revealed here. It does bring the viewer to the climax of this movie.

I will give you, my rating. I give Deadpool 10 out of 10. It was fun and this movie honors the character of Deadpool. He is the merc with the mouth. He breaks the fourth wall as he talks to the audience. He knows that he is a character in a story. It is remarkably like Ferris Bueller’s Day Off when he talks to the audience. He is like Deathstroke that they both can kill with a sword and a gun. Wade Wilson is forgetful, and he needs to figure out his path. It is a typical struggle for a character. He will figure out that love is blind and if a person genuinely loves you, they will love you no matter what.

Hello everyone, welcome to the Mattacritic. This is Matthew Hemenway and as you noticed I am wearing headphones like this microphone I have requires me to wear them. Before I start this episode, please subscribe to this channel, and hit that notification bell to be notified of any episodes at the bottom of this video or blog post. Thank you. In this episode of the Mattacritic, I will be reviewing the audio version of Star Wars: Stories of Jedi and the Sith by Disney Lucasfilm Press. Copyrighted in 2022 that you can get to amazon or get to your local library. This story came out at the time when the Obi-Wan Kenobi series was released on Disney+. I reviewed this series on my channel. These are collections of stories of Jedi and the Sith that go from the Prequels to the Sequel trilogy. Each chapter in this book is short stories, and they tell a story from the perspective of time and space that it takes place in that story. I will explain each story in various parts of this episode. These will have stories from Obi-Wan Kenobi, Darth Maul, Darth Vader, Luke Skywalker, and it will have one going to Rey as well. This is an excellent listener, and it does have a book to read, if you want to read that as well. I will leave a link to that in the description below. Thank you. I will give you my rating of these short stories at the end of this episode. I hope this episode will inspire you to read, watch, and learn.

Rest of Review and Rating of Stories of Jedi and Sith

The first story starts with a young boy wanting to be a Jedi, but he lived below the ground. He was considered vermin and not worthy of any status. This is something he wants to change and hopes to become a Jedi. He was considered a thief and a girl who was the same age as him. The girl and the boy are both 14 years old. She tells him that you must do more to prove that you are a jedi. The boy feels he must prove something and hopes he can prove it to Master Yodi. He sees Master Yodi, but the Jedi Temple guards are after criminals that came from underground. He runs as he is afraid; they will arrest him if he stays. He runs and gets clothes from a shop that makes him look like a Jedi. He confronts the criminals trying to take the same 14-year-old girl and rescues her. She thanks him and later she stands up for him when the temple guard wants to arrest him. Master Yodi tells the boy when he thinks that it is not a rubric that makes a Jedi; it is the desire to learn. Master Yodi tells the girl that he will be your student. The girl and the boy ironically both come from the underground. They have a lot in common, and this will be an interesting relationship.

The second story will consist of Qui-Gon Jinn, and he was sent by the Jedi Council to help with the recovery of a young Jedi that has lost her way. He must go to this planet and rescue her. Ironically, Qui-Gon Jinn is lost as he is upset with his old master, Count Doku, who strayed from the path. He must figure out how to not let this cloud his judgment. This will not be easy for Qui-Gon Jinn, but he must do this. This girl depends on him to rescue her. He must deal with a queen that is difficult to deal with. He gets help, but he is betrayed by one of the queen’s soldiers. He must figure out how to get her out. He does, and the story will end the way the reader thinks it will.

I may not remember all the stories in order as this had 12 chapters. This book contains 11 different short stories in this book. This is understandable as I may not remember the exact order of this book. This may be the third or fourth story in this book. One of the stories consists of an adventure that Anakin Skywalker and Obi-Wan Kenobi take. They are on this planet, and they stumble upon a girl and a boy who are stranded and are about to be killed by the droid army. They rescue this girl and her younger brother who is 6 years old and is telling his older sister that he can sense his family. He tells her he can sense where his parents are. She tells him that Mom and Dad are dead. There is no hope in finding them. She believes that her brother cannot possess the force since he is not a Jedi. Anakin Skywalker believes the 6-year-old boy and encourages Obi-Wan Kenobi; we must look for their parents. Obi-Wan Kenobi tells the girl that the force resides in all living things. It is possible to think this boy may be right about this. Both Obi-Wan Kenobi and Anakin Skywalker agree; this is worth the risk, and they must find the parents of these 2 children. They find the children’s parents and rescue them. This story proves that no one is too young to make a difference. It is good that Anakin Skywalker and Obi-Wan Kenobi encourage the 6-year-old boy that he is not too young to do so. This is a lesson for the older sister as one is never too young to make a difference. This is the lesson that this young girl learns. If I had to guess her age, I would say she is at least 14 years old. The girl reading this story sounds old.

This may be the fourth or fifth story in this book. This is where one of the jedi is doubting why the Jedi are fighting in the clone war. This story is about the battle of Genesys. This Jedi has nightmares about this battle. It is understandable that she has a PTSD. She wonders if it makes sense for the Jedi to be fighting in the clone of war. As one of the other Jedi tells her, if we do not stop the separatists here, it will only create more problems for the galaxy. She must trust that Jedi is on the right side of history here. It is not easy, but one must do what is necessary. She may understand what she must do, but she still has doubts about the Jedi fighting in the clone war.

This may be the fifth or sixth story in this book. Darth Maul is searching for the Sith Temple. The Sith Temple has powers and artifacts that he could use to destroy his enemies. He is having visions of others that are dead. He did not die against Obi-Wan Kenobi in that battle on Naboo. He is alive. This is also explained in Rebels why he is looking for the Sith Temple. He believes if he can destroy his enemies, this will vindicate what happened to him. He wants to destroy Obi-Wan Kenobi and his old master, who is now called Emperor Palpatine. He sees Qui-Gon Jinn, and Qui-Gon Jinn tells him what will happen when you get your revenge. Will this be it, or will there be a new enemy? Revenge is an addiction, and it is a poison as it will poison your heart, and you will always want another enemy to destroy. This is the lesson this story teaches.

This may be the sixth or seventh story in this book. Darth Vader searches for a rebel amongst the Empire on a planet that the Empire needs to funnel their military operations. Darth Vader is upset amongst the imperial officer who oversees this operation. He tells her, “You have an insurgent amongst you.” She tells him that it is impossible. She tells him she would know if any insurgent existed amongst them. Darth Vader tells her, you lack imagination. Darth Vader looks for the rebel insurgent, and he encounters a creature that is half a cat and half a dragon. Darth Vader kills that creature before that creature can kill Darth Vader. Darth Vader encounters the insurgent, and it is a teenage Wookie. Wookies can live to be 200 years old. She could be 50 years old and considered a teenager. She works to destroy the dam to disable the Empire. She has a fight with Darth Vader. It will be a challenge, but it is possible. She, with the help of the Rebels, will do just that in terms of destroying the dam and hurting the Empire in the process. Darth Vader will be mad to say the least.

This may be the seventh or eighth story in this book. Luke Skywalker will be on the planet called Hoth, and he is with a guy that is hard to deal with. This story takes place between New Hope and The Empire Strikes Back. He thinks that all Jedi causes more problems than they solve. They get trapped when ice falls and in a cave in, although Luke does not have his light saber as it was being treated for pathogens. That is understandable. The Rebel Alliance does not want any pathogens that can harm life on the planet. Luke Skywalker feels that might have helped him if he had access to his weapons. He must use the force to get them out of the cave in. Luke jokes that this guy never smiled in his life. He was one of those that is serious and could never make a joke or even laugh. This is a fun and funny story. The reader will enjoy this story.

This may bey eighth or ninth story in this book. Emperor Palpatine sits in his throne room on the Death Star as this will take place at the time of Return of Jedi. He can remember the scene back in Revenge of the Sith when he fought Master Yodi. Master Yodi thought he could take him on, but this is a mistake as Master Yodi learns that he is stronger than he thought. Master Yodi later flees to his home in Dagaba. It will return to the scene in Return of Jedi, and he tells Luke that it is his time to die as he will be going into forever sleep. Luke tells Master Yodi, you cannot die. Master Yodi tells Luke, “Strong am I with the force, but not that strong. That is the way of things, the way of the force.” Yodi warns Luke not to underestimate the powers of the emperor. He lets Luke know that there is another Skywalker. The emperor is in the throne room will sense that Master Yodi died and Yodi will appear in front of the emperor. This is right before Luke and Darth Vader come into the throne room. The story will end here.

This is the eleventh story of this book. Poe and Rey are on supply run for the Resistance. They are getting supplies such as clothes and food to help the resistance be able to eat. Poe and Rey are arguing about a fruit that Rey had on Jocko. During the argument, BB-8 gets taken by insurgents that live on the planet. They must rescue BB-8, and this will force them to work together if they want to save BB-8. This is where Rey and Poe must learn to trust each other. It will not be easy but a valuable lesson to learn.

I will give you, my rating. I give Star Wars: Stories of Jedi and the Sith by Disney Lucasfilm Press copyrighted in 2022, a 10 out of 10. It was fun, and it does an excellent job of connecting the Star Wars Universe and helping to fill out plot points that needed to be answered. The Prequels needed this help, and the stories helped to do this. It also does not hurt the original trilogy and the sequel trilogy that these stories do this. You understand these characters better than the reader did before they read this book. It does help this comes with an audio version if a person travels or prefers to do it that way. This book is a fun collection of stories that tell remarkable stories and the person who reads or listens to them will not be disappointed.
