DVD Review – ‘Thor: Ragnarok’

Hello everyone! 🙂

Welcome to ‘Bradley’s Basement’ blog and I’m Tim Bradley!

And welcome everyone to the final week of this year’s ‘Marvel Cinematic Universe Film Review Season’!

And here we are on what is arguably considered to be the unusual ending for ‘Phase Three: Part One’ in the ‘Marvel Cinematic Universe’ movie series. This is ‘Thor: Ragnarok’, the third film in the ‘Thor’ trilogy so far as well as the last ‘MCU’ film that was shown in 2017. Yeah ‘Phase Three: Part One’ covered two years of ‘MCU’ movies at the cinema whilst the second half covered the next two. Continue reading

Day Trip Report – ‘Marvel Avengers S.T.A.T.I.O.N.’ (August 2019)

Hello everyone! 🙂

Welcome to ‘Bradley’s Basement’ blog and I’m Tim Bradley!

I miss the ‘Doctor Who Experience’ in Cardiff Bay. I enjoyed going to the gift shop and seeing what was inside the exhibition full of adventure and displays of costumes and monsters. Thus, I suppose it gets all made up for when I attended the latest interactive exhibit in Cardiff – the ‘Marvel Avengers S.T.A.T.I.O.N.’. Continue reading

DVD Review – ‘Spider-Man: Homecoming’

Hello everyone! 🙂

Welcome to ‘Bradley’s Basement’ blog and I’m Tim Bradley!

And here is the penultimate week of this year’s ‘Marvel Cinematic Universe Film Review Season’!

And here we come to the primary reason for why I’ve been reviewing these ‘Marvel Cinematic Universe’ movies in the first place! Today, it’s time to take a look at the Tom Holland era of ‘Spider-Man’ with a review on the first movie called ‘Spider-Man: Homecoming’. And what good timing this is as I’m reviewing this movie with ‘Spider-Man: Far From Home’ still being shown at the cinemas. 😀 Continue reading

DVD Review – ‘Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 2’

Hello everyone! 🙂

Welcome to ‘Bradley’s Basement’ blog and I’m Tim Bradley!

And welcome back to this year’s ‘Marvel Cinematic Universe Film Review Season’!

Today, we take a look at the second movie of a group of superheroes that I barely know about from the comics. It’s time for ‘Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 2’. I saw this movie at the cinema back in May 2017. Will this movie be better second time watching it on DVD compared to first time at the cinema? Continue reading

DVD Review – ‘Doctor Strange’

Hello everyone! 🙂

Welcome to ‘Bradley’s Basement’ blog and I’m Tim Bradley!

Today we continue the ‘Marvel Cinematic Universe Film Review Season’ for this year and… Continue reading

DVD Review – ‘Captain America: Civil War’

The office is empty at first. Tim then enters with the ‘Marvel Studios Cinematic Universe – Phase Three: Part One’ DVD box set in his hand. He puts it on a nearby desk table and sighs happily before he sits down at the computer. He’s ready to type away.

Right! (clears throat; to audience) Are we ready? Then let’s begin!

DVD Review – ‘Ant-Man’

Hello everyone! 🙂

Welcome to ‘Bradley’s Basement’ blog and I’m Tim Bradley!

And welcome to the final instalment of the ‘Marvel Cinematic Universe Film Review Season 2’!

Today we take a look at the final film of Phase Two of the ‘Marvel Cinematic Universe’ film series. It’s a bit of a peculiar film to end Phase Two as it’s an origins story for a new superhero character. One wonders why ‘Avengers: Age of Ultron’ was not made as the finale film for Phase Two of the ‘MCU’. Continue reading

DVD Review – ‘Avengers: Age of Ultron’

Hello everyone! 🙂

Welcome to ‘Bradley’s Basement’ blog and I’m Tim Bradley!

And welcome back everyone to the ‘Marvel Cinematic Universe Film Review Season 2’!

Today we’re looking at the penultimate film in Phase Two of the ‘Marvel Cinematic Universe’ film series. And it’s ‘Avengers: Age of Ultron’, sequel to ‘Avengers Assemble’ (or ‘The Avengers’ as the USA calls it). Which makes wonder why ‘Avengers: Age of Ultron’ isn’t the final movie for Phase Two. Continue reading

DVD Review – ‘Guardians of the Galaxy’

Hello everyone! 🙂

Welcome to ‘Bradley’s Basement’ blog and I’m Tim Bradley!

And welcome back everyone to the ‘Marvel Cinematic Universe Film Review Season 2’!

Today we’re looking at a group of Marvel comic book superheroes brought to life in the movies that I had no knowledge of beforehand when watching them at the cinema. In fact, I never read any of their comics since they made the first appearance in 2008 and I had grown out of reading comics by then. Continue reading

DVD Review – ‘Captain America: The Winter Soldier’

Hello everyone! 🙂

Welcome to ‘Bradley’s Basement’ blog and I’m Tim Bradley!

And welcome once again everyone to the ‘Marvel Cinematic Universe Film Review Season 2’!

After the disappointment I had with ‘Thor: The Dark World’ last week, I hoped that the next film in Phase Two of the ‘Marvel Cinematic Universe’, ‘Captain America: The Winter Soldier’ will be an improvement and a much better film. Thankfully it was! It was highly rated as a film back in 2014! Continue reading
