My Thoughts While Watching "Spider-Man: Homecoming"

Basically my inner ramblings while the movie played

My Thoughts While Watching "Spider-Man: Homecoming"
Spider-Man: Homecoming

When MARVEL first announced that they had recast the role of Spider-Man, I was apprehensive. They already had two different actors as Spider-Man, why would you do another?

Then they announced that he was going to make his debut in the new Captain America movie. That interested me. Actually, it more than interested me. I was ecstatic.

It would be the first time Spider-Man would appear alongside the Avengers on the big screen. It was something I never thought would ever happen because of rights issues between MARVEL and Sony. But we were finally going to get it and I could not be more excited.

Then I went and saw this new Captain America movie and I was sold. This Spider-Man would be a perfect combination of Peter Parker and Spider-Man. And he would be getting his own movie.

Which leads us to the present.

"Spider-Man Homecoming".

So without further ado, here are my thoughts while watching the newest installment of the newest web-slinging hero.

******************* SPOILER ALERT ****************************

-Him just being the Friendly Neighborhood Spider-Man

-"Do a flip!" *Peter does a flip* *cheers from the random guy*

-Peter constantly texting Happy updates only to never get a response

-Him only taking off half of his mask to eat and talk on the phone Which is much safer for someone who wants to keep his identity a secret

-Peter being awkward while stopping the robbers, because same

-The picture the news uses for Spider-Man is him coming out of a porta-potty with toilet paper on his foot

-Michelle doing "push ups" with her book I mean same

"What?! No! I don't want to kill anyone!"

Pause

-Peter asking Karen for dating advice even though she's a computer

"How long have we been here?"

"37 minutes"

"WHAT?!"

-Spider-Man climbing to the top of the Washington Monument

-“My friends call me MJ.” I. KNEW. IT.

-“What are you hiding, Peter?”

Pause

“I’m just kidding, bye.”

-Happy talking to Peter in the school’s bathroom and being really heartfelt and sincere

-Only to have a toilet flush and a kid walk out awkwardly Honestly that kid is me

The Great Christmas Movie Debate

"A Christmas Story" is the star on top of the tree.

The Great Christmas Movie Debate
Mental Floss

One staple of the Christmas season is sitting around the television watching a Christmas movie with family and friends. But of the seemingly hundreds of movies, which one is the star on the tree? Some share stories of Santa to children ("Santa Claus Is Coming to Town"), others want to spread the Christmas joy to adults ("It's a Wonderful Life"), and a select few are made to get laughs ("Elf"). All good movies, but merely ornaments on the Christmas tree of the best movies. What tops the tree is a movie that bridges the gap between these three movies, and makes it a great watch for anyone who chooses to watch it. Enter the timeless Christmas classic, "A Christmas Story." Created in 1983, this movie holds the tradition of capturing both young and old eyes for 24 straight hours on its Christmas Day marathon. It gets the most coverage out of all holiday movies, but the sheer amount of times it's on television does not make it the greatest. Why is it,
then? A Christmas Story does not try to tell the tale of a Christmas miracle or use Christmas magic to move the story. What it does do though is tell the real story of Christmas. It is relatable and brings out the unmatched excitement of children on Christmas in everyone who watches. Every one becomes a child again when they watch "A Christmas Story."

It's the most wonderful time of the year! Christmas is one of my personal favorite holidays because of the Christmas traditions my family upholds generation after generation. After talking to a few of my friends at college, I realized that a lot of them don't really have "Christmas traditions" in their family, and I want to help change that. Here's a list of Christmas traditions that my family does, and anyone can incorporate into their family as well!

It’s here; that time of year when college students turn into preschoolers again. We cry for our mothers, eat everything in sight, and whine when we don’t get our way. It’s finals, the dreaded time of the semester when we all realize we should have been paying attention in class instead of literally doing anything else but that. Everyone has to take them, and yes, unfortunately, they are inevitable. But just because they are here and inevitable does not mean they’re peaches and cream and full of rainbows. Surviving them is a must, and the following five phases are a reality for all majors from business to art, nursing to history.
