Justice League Movie Review

"Fueled by his restored faith in humanity and inspired by Superman's selfless act, Bruce Wayne enlists the help of his newfound ally, Diana Prince, to face an even greater enemy. Together, Batman and Wonder Woman work quickly to find and recruit a team of metahumans to stand against this newly awakened threat. But despite the formation of this unprecedented league of heroes-Batman, Wonder Woman, Aquaman, Cyborg and The Flash-it may already be too late to save the planet from an assault of catastrophic proportions."~IMDb

I was so hyped for the movie after seeing the first trailer, and all the content released after only helped to keep that hype going. I was a little concerned that the negative reviews would turn out to be true. Walking out of the movie theater afterwards, I was not disappointed, thinking it one of the best movies.

The story line was well-written, focused, and strong. There was not a bunch of plots going on, making the story easy to follow. Not only that, the movie sucked me right in and I wanted to keep watching, to see what would happen to some of my favorite heroes. The writing was excellent, all the well-placed phrases and speeches. The ending was so beautiful; it made me so happy and wrapped up the movie perfectly.

All the characters were portrayed and characterized very well. Barry was as funny as ever, Diana ready to defend humanity, and Batman as brooding and determined as always. For Cyborg and Aquaman's first time being in a movie, I felt like they got both the characters just right. I can already tell that I like Mera from what they showed of her.

While I can't say it was better than Wonder Woman, Justice League was an excellent movie and I hope DC continues down this path. I think I may just have to get it when it comes out on DVD.

The Sword of Summer  is the first book in the Magnus Chase and the Gods of Asgard series, written by Rick Riordan. The genre is mythology. "Magnus Chase has always been a troubled kid. Since his mother’s mysterious death, he’s lived alone on the streets of Boston, surviving by his wits, keeping one step ahead of the police and the truant officers. One day, he’s tracked down by a man he’s never met—a man his mother claimed was dangerous. The man tells him an impossible secret: Magnus is the son of a Norse god. The Viking myths are true. The gods of Asgard are preparing for war. Trolls, giants and worse monsters are stirring for doomsday. To prevent Ragnarok, Magnus must search the Nine Worlds for a weapon that has been lost for thousands of years.

Sometimes, the only way to start a new life is to die . . ."~ Goodreads As...

Wordy Wednesday is a meme that focuses on expanding vocabulary for aspiring writers or even finding out new words. All that is required is coming up with a word and its definition! My word for this week is opprobrium. Opprobrium - something that brings disgrace                        contempt or reproach (Merriam-Webster) Let's take the quote I used from Mulan in one of my previous memes and replace the word dishonor. Opprobrium on you! Opprobrium on your cow! This will forever be one of the best quotes. If you participate make sure to leave a link down below so I can check your post out.

Cheap Books? Yes Please!

You walk into the local bookstore and admire all the beautiful books that you so desperately want to buy. There's only one problem. You don't have enough money. Well my fellow book lovers, I've discovered ways to get books for cheaper. Not all of them may be for you -if you like to physically display them or like brand new copies- but other than that they are pretty great. Giveaways Yep, this one is pretty obvious, but giveaways provide free books. Free. Ooh,  no money I have to spend. Of course you may not win, but keep entering different ones for books that are appealing. It wouldn't be fair to others if you entered random giveaways. May the odds be ever in your favor. Amazon Sometimes a good deal can be found on Amazon. What I mean is that the book is cheaper than the one at the bookstore. True, there's shipping, but overall it probably is a better buy. There's also the used section where you can find pre-loved books, sometimes  for only several d...
