Captain America; Winter Soldier and Marvel Cinematic Universe Timeline

Here’s another movie post!

Last, last Saturday, we were to watch Barney’s Birthday Bash in MOA. The younger set will watch me while the older set will watch Captain America with Daddy. The most dreadful thing (for a commuter) happened… EDSA’s traffic was a snail!!! On a hot Saturday afternoon! Yikes! So, Daddy decided to go back and watch a movie at SM Megamall. We ended up watching Captain America: Winter Soldier at Robinson’s Galleria

Captain America: The Winter Soldier, takes place 2 years after the Battle of New York (aka The Avengers). Steve Rogers still work for S.H.I.E.L.D. while struggling to adopt to his new modern life. The agency was compromised and Nick Fury dies in surgery after he was attacked by the Winter Soldier. Before he dies, Nick gave Rogers a USB flash drive. Rogers had a hard time knowing who to trust but eventually he worked with Black Widow to solve the Winter Soldier Mystery and why, how S.H.I.E.L.D. was compromised

The story becomes more interesting when the Winter Soldier was unmasked.. and how he was related to Steve Rogers. Two post credit scenes (so don’t forget to stay in the cinema until the last one was shown)!

The movie… oh wow! Can I just say that I love it to bits.. obviously, because here I am blogging about it.It also leaves me questioning the timeline of each Avengers Movie. A few readings (yes I love doing that.. I actually spend 2 days reading about The Avengers and anything related to it haha) and here’s my conclusion:

Captain America: The First Avengers happened first (that’s too obvious, right?). This was followed by Marvel One Shot: Agent Carter, shows how Agent Carter was appointed (by Howard Stark nonetheless) to handle S.H.I.E.L.D.

Many many years after comes Iron Man 1 and then Iron Man 2 and then Incredible Hulk. This was followed by another one shot, The Consultant (super funny) and another one: A Funny Thing Happened on the Way to Thor’s Hammer. Then Thor happens, followed by The Avengers. Seven days after Battle of New York, Item 47 is on (another one shot) and then 6 months after, we see Tony Starks again. A year or less after The Avengers, Thor: The Dark World (this happened 2 years after Thor) and another one shot: All Hail The King. And if Ia m right that Thor: The Dark World happened a year after The Avengers, then Captain America: The Winter Soldier happened 1 year after The Dark World.

So what’s next with the Marvel Cinematic Universe? Avengers: Age of Ultron! (one year from now!! waah) but before that, there’s Guardians of the Galaxy coming this August.

Hey, are you a fan of Marvel? What’s your favorite Marvel Cinematic Universe movie? Don’t you wish Wolverine will be included on the one of them? I DO!!!

Rio 2 and Jollibee Kids Meal Rio 2 Adventure Collections

So I have seen a few blog posts about RIO 2.. and I don’t even know what that is! Waaah so a few readings here and there and I learned (which is very obvious) that, this movie is a sequel to the 2011 RIO movie. The movie is all about birds.. hmmm so that is why I haven’t heard it before.. not much a fan of birds wahaha

Anyways, I watched the Rio 2 trailer and find it interesting. I am a sucker for reunions!

And OMG I can so relate to Blu’s character (OCD alert haha) The animation is superb! I want to watch Rio 2 and I am sure the kids will love this movie too. WAIT! I need to watch Rio before that. I still have time! haha Rio 2 will open here in the Philippines on April 9! Yay!

3 Rio 2 characters to collect from Jollibee Kids Meal:

Blu, the Spix’s Macaw and obviously the main protagonist of the story
Rafael, the bird (voice by Bruno Mars) Jewel’s childhood friend
Gabi the Frog, Nigel’s sidekick

Aww just that? I wish they also include Jewel, Nigel and the other characters.

After watching the movie, let’s see if the kids will love to have these collectibles.. (we just finished collecting Super Mario toys from Mcdo, watch if it will be a Jollibee diet on our house soon haha)

Have you seen RIO 1? Are you excited for RIO 2?

Finding The Right Wedding Photographer

How to Find Right Wedding Photographer

Finding the right wedding photographer is something that every couple must do to make sure that their big day lasts for many years to come. The wedding pictures are something that will look great today, but they will be treasured memories for the grandchildren and the rest of the family many decades from now. This means that someone searching along the coast for a great Wilmington NC photographer must be ready to choose the photographer who offers the best options for the ceremony. The couple needs to make sure that their wedding is photographed perfectly, but they also want to work with a photographer that works deep in digital technology so that the couple has easy access to the photos that were taken.

When choosing the right wedding photographer, the couple is going to want to work with someone who handles their pictures online just as well as they do in the dark room. The digital photographer that works in digital pictures can send the pictures over email to their clients, can post them on Facebook and will even give the couple a chance to share their pictures with friends and family much more easily. There are many ways in which the couple can get their prints back, but working with a photographer who works online and takes digital pictures makes life much easier for the couple after the ceremony is over.

At the ceremony and reception, the photographer is tasked with getting an image of every single little thing that they can. The day is to be documented perfectly for the couple so that they can see the memories from the day they got married. However, the couple cannot direct this production, and that means that the photographer must be outgoing and ready to interact with everyone at the wedding. With the help of a nice photographer who is a part of the action, the ceremony and reception become even more exciting. People already know that a photographer will be at the ceremony, but they will be delighted to meet someone who takes great pictures of them just as well as they did of the bride and groom.

When choosing the right Wilmington NC photographer, it is wise to remember that the photographer can take engagement pictures, will photograph the bridal party before the ceremony, will get pictures of the ceremony and reception and the photographer will develop and send out the pictures to the couple while they are still on their honeymoon.

The best photography for the bride and groom makes them look good, makes them feel good and gives everyone at the nuptials a reason to smile. Everyone from the ceremony could have their picture taken with their date, the bridal party will be photographed beautifully and the ceremony will live in photographic history so that kids and grandkids can look back on this special day. Wedding photography has to be one of the most importrant aspect of your wedding planning. Going a little over budget on a photographer who’s work you really enjoy is not as big of a deal as going over budget on flowers.
