Spider-Man: No Way Home

  View this post on Instagram   A post shared by Lara (@knobbygirl) It. Was. Perfect. Okay, maybe not perfect…but perfect for me and what I wanted to see. No Way Home on Xmas Day was my first time back in the theater since the pandemic began. Literally, the last film we went and saw […]

Shang-Chi and the Legend of the Ten Rings

  View this post on Instagram   A post shared by Lara (@knobbygirl) We are most definitely those chumps that waited for Shang-Chi to hit Disney+ instead of going to the theater…Disney+ has made 2021 so much more bearable… It was a fun film! The action was non-stop and it was really fun to watch […]

Black Widow

  View this post on Instagram   A post shared by Lara (@knobbygirl) Black Widow achieved an almost impossible task – this movie made me actually care what happened to a character I didn’t give a shit about before. I didn’t hate Black Widow (or ScarJo) in previous MCU entries, I didn’t feel anything at […]

Guardians of the Galaxy, Vol. 2

  View this post on Instagram   A post shared by Lara (@knobbygirl) on Jul 8, 2019 at 6:33pm PDT I’ve done it! I’ve watched all of the Infinity Saga films…Well, technically, Far from Home was the last one that I watched, but whatever… My husband took the kids to go see it in the […]

Spider-Man: Far from Home

  View this post on Instagram   A post shared by Lara (@knobbygirl) on Jul 30, 2019 at 1:04pm PDT Just a few weeks after opening, we lucked into a private showing one morning last week…matinee prices, too. Going to the Movie Theater is GREAT without all the people! I wasn’t feeling patient, so I […]

Ant-Man and the Wasp

  View this post on Instagram   A post shared by Lara (@knobbygirl) on Jun 28, 2019 at 1:08pm PDT Thanks to my kids’ Netflix account, we all finally got to watch Ant-Man and the Wasp. You heard me right – my kids mutinied and set up their own Netflix account for the summer. (I […]

Avengers: Endgame

  View this post on Instagram   A post shared by Lara (@knobbygirl) on May 14, 2019 at 7:45am PDT I don’t even know how to write a review about Endgame that doesn’t contain at least 50 spoilers, so instead…you’ll get feelings and emotions. I know, I know – not like me at all. We […]

Captain Marvel

  View this post on Instagram   A post shared by Lara (@knobbygirl) on Apr 13, 2019 at 6:57pm PDT Captain Marvel is cool and all, but Samuel L. Jackson carried the film for me. Young Nick Fury was the glue that held the film together, no offense to Captain Marvel intended. I was not […]

Iron Man 3

A post shared by Lara (@knobbygirl) on Jul 5, 2018 at 8:21pm PDT I’ve somehow managed to avoid seeing Iron Man 3 in the five years or so since it was released. No particular reason, except maybe the fear of too much GOOP. Even so, I’m hearing rumblings that there are some plot threads from […]

Avengers: Infinity War

Ten years and eighteen movies. The success of the Marvel Cinematic Universe was a long shot, but they did it, somehow those magnificent bastards did it. They created a film universe filled with amazing characters in amazing films. Sure, there were missteps like Incredible Hulk and The Dark World – but there were far more […]
