Captain America Civil War

Tom Holland steals the show
One of the best cameos in years
I am surprised they cast as a white actor for spider-man, but Tom despite being English.( In fact I may have known his father) nails the role. Just nails it. Is much better writing. The boy steals the scene from Downey Jr.

Apart from the false premise, the bad guy holding people hostage in a mall, is responsible for the damage and death caused, as the Police, or Swat, or Superman try to save them. Why are the Avengers doing special forces work. Black Widow, is as good as a Delta Force operative, so send the Deltas. In fact the series acknowledges this. It keeps the big guns, Thor and Hulk are not in the film. The second most powerful characters, Vision and scarlet witch, are kept out of the action

In some ways this is a direct sequel to Avengers 2. Or its Avengers 2.5

Its a big cast
Hawkeye
Antman
Vision
Scarlet Witch
Black Widow
Iron man
Iron patriot
Falcon
Bucky
Black Panther
Thunderbolt Ross
Again its more of an ensemble. Downey Jr gets a lot of work,

Agent Carter passes away off screen. Alas my favorite. Is it not weird, to have Captain American with his life's love grandniece as the romantic lead. Oh Black Widow has stopped trying to set up Rodgers with everyone

Hey Tom Slattery! returns as Stark Snr.

Song for today ``There’s gotta be more…’’

I am borrowing this content for a moment. Yes I am aware I have a child’s musical taste http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wUOcQnWbk_U&feature=related I used to catch this song,on one of the music channels, a few years ago.  I liked it. Its a nice enough song.  Stacey O, is a sweet young lady. Who tired of the music business and became a volunteer in Africa. I have been listening to it all day today. I downloaded if from Amazon. It catches a moment in adolescence when, you start working, and its mopping floors, or loading books onto barrows. You go to college and its waiting around all day for three hours of lectures, eating instant noodles, and maybe watching Star trek, or the Simpsons  and going to bed. So you go to the club on the weekend. You go to the underwear party. You get drunk, but that’s it isn’t it

Malchera in High school

Will from the in-betweeners, with bad skin, look at the area arround my left eye. I have just had a bout of conjuctiveitis. That and my half smile, to conceal my cracked incisor and dirty teeth... I don't know why I actually possess this picture. School Photographs, now there is racket. They take you out of class, and take your picture, and charge you for the picture. Anyway, my mother never paid for the school photographer. She had 4 children in the same school,  and paying for 4 photographs, would not have been cheap. I do remember the day though. Before me, the busty Kelly Panei, had gone first. The photographer had made a crack about beauty and the beast, so I knocked over his stand on the way out... But for years after, this was my mental image of myself...
