Review: Captain Marvel (2019)

Review in Brief: Teen Titans Go! To the Movies (2018)
Sometimes there is a place to laugh at really loud and long farts and murdering Bruce Wayne’s parents by time travel. TEEN TITANS GO! TO THE MOVIES is that place. I’m a bit old for the show the film spins … Continue reading
