How my fanboy self is feeling about Avengers: Infinity War

Just a few weeks ago, Marvel released their biggest production yet. Avengers: Infinity War, as they say, "is the most ambitious crossover ever assembled". And true enough, that ambitious crossover is now a huge success.

I'm not really a huge comic book fan and I'm not really familiar with most Marvel characters. However, since the Marvel Cinematic Universe started to take shape, I became really hooked. I have watched almost all the movies and even the TV shows just so I can get even the smallest details that have meaning to the MCU. From Iron man, to Captain America, to Thor, up to the latest episodes Marvel's Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D., I watched them all. Now, this movie puts together these puzzle pieces to form one huge blockbuster hit.

As fans, we get to see who would get the honour of playing our favourite superheroes. We get to see how it would look like when they're not just drawn in comic books or animated cartoons. We get to see these heroes as humans just like us. We all know it's not real but this time, it's the closest to real life as it can get. Much like how science advances human knowledge by experimentation, These kinds of movies advances the human creativity and fantasy. Before, we can only imagine how these characters would look like in real life. Now, we get to see them portrayed by real people.

Avengers: Infinity War is also a proof of hard work and a great deal of planning. This did not just happen overnight. It took years to create this movie and someone to see the big picture before it even came to be. For me, this is what made this so great. We became used to successful movie franchises that had so many sequels where the next one just added up to the other. But this new Avengers movie was more than that. It is not a linear augmentation of a story where we find everything out on the next sequel. It is the interconnection of different stories and attention to detail where we find out that mystery behind one superhero's story is actually connected to another hero's.

Even if you are not really a MCU fan, I still advise you to watch the movie. If you read between the lines, you will realize that story in the movie is not far from what is happening in the world today. And along the way, you will realize that ideologies and the emotional connections in this "ambitious crossover" are undeniably truly human.

For a special someone

 Hi,     I know I have been the worst this past year. I know you haven't felt the same way since the pandemic hit and so did I. I thought that giving you space and waiting for you to come around was the right thing for us. I thought that you would become more independent and that you would learn that you are very strong and you can do anything. I thought that giving you the space will help you go back to being with your friends and enjoying your life without me. Most especially, I thought that when you had time to let yourself free a little, I would just be here waiting for you with all the things that you've learned by yourself and having to experience a new you.     I, too, had plans to change over that time. I wanted to enjoy being with my family and experience how it's like to live with them for a longer period of time. We were never in the same house for so long and I wanted to savor that time before I lived away from them. I wanted to make sure they were l...

"Sana all" may not be good at all

       I woke up this morning asking myself, "why are people not contented with what they have?" Why do we always find something we don't have and try to force ourselves that we should have that? In an era full content, why is there so much discontent?      I realized that the phrase "sana all" is a big part of this. We often see this phrase in comments on social media where everyone shares "the good stuff". We see a couple's nice photo and the first comment is "sana all". We see a woman in a bikini on the beach with the caption, "sunkissed", "beach please", or "vitamin sea", and the first comment is "sana all". We see a person's photo in a foreign country with a historical land mark and the first comment is "sana all".       I get it. It's supposed to make the person in the photo feel good about themselves. However, does the person saying it feel any better? "Sana all" i...
