Baby Yoda: The True Chosen One?

Image
 !!BIG SPOILERS FOR THE MANDALORIAN!!  In Star Wars: Episode 1 - The Phantom Menace, young Anakin is found by Qui-Gon Jinn and is brought back to Jedi temple on Coruscant to be tested and trained. It is found out that young Anakin has a connection to the force that rivals Jedi Master Yoda. Qui-Gon seems immediately jump to the idea that he must be the Chosen One, the foretold force user that would bring balance to the force and defeat the darkside.. Well we know how well that goes. But what exactly is the prophecy? What does bring balance to the force mean? We never really get a true answer to these questions. The main thought process I feel like a lot of people should agree on is that this prophecy ultimately was not in favor of the Jedi. The Jedi had grown massively powerful and  corrupt more focused on serving the Republic than the Force.  The thought process is maybe Anakin DID bring balance to the Force by destroying and hunting down the Jedi, bringing a balance...

#HLSBets : "I Should've Won That!!" Volume 1.

Image
Welcome to the first ever "I Should've Won That!!",  I will be doing mini dives into bets that I lost and and why of course, I should've won that. But this won't just be about me, I want your input every week! I will tweet out on either Sunday Night or Monday morning something along the line of  "what was your worst football betting loss this weekend?" under the normal #HLSBets hashtag so we can find it and discuss each week.  Well here we go First off for my bets I should have won were the three moved/canceled games that I definitely would have gone 3-0 in of course. Quick side bar for those that do not know, on all of my sheets I put out full standard betting games and that means I put my bet for the Total, Money Line, and the Spread of each game. CFB Texas A&M not covering versus LSU was one of the most aggravating things I have ever watched. The spread I had was -15 and the final score was 20-7. The Aggies average scoring output on offense is ove...

WandaVision : Disney's First MCU TV Show - What to Expect and Theories

Image
      Disney+ launched November 12th 2019, and has exploded across the world and now has over 60 million subscribers world wide. With the launch of Disney+ the streaming platform put out "The Mandalorian" as the flagship tv show for the service. "The Mandalorian" was a gigantic hit success but has really been the only smash hit show from the streaming service, but that might soon change. One thing in common with The Mandalorian is that WandaVision will supposedly have a Disney Gallery behind the scenes show about it as well. "WandaVision" still has a secret/vague release date on "winter 2020"and is going to be the MCU's first Kevin Feige produced tv show that is directly tied into the MCU. Fans like myself that adored the Marvel Netflix shows and ABC's Agents of Shield / Agent Carter have been bummed for years at their very loose adjacency to the mainline MCU cannon. Somethings on the show referenced the movies or even had side characters...

2020 AFC Preview: Division Winners and Win Totals!

Image
 2020 AFC Preview Tom Brady is gone, the Patriots have won the AFC East forever, Buffalo is going to be breaking tables as AFC EAST division champs before week 15. Colts about to shock the world with Phillip Rivers torching the AFC South Big Ben back healthy and trim, time to challenge the Ravens for the AFC North title, do not be shocked if that amazing Steelers defense leads them deep in the playoffs MEANWHILE the AFC North also has the Browns finally with a competent head coach and the Division will be the toughest in the entire league once again. No Von Miller no chance the Broncos contend for double digit wins, though the offense will be much improved with Jerry Jeudy added to that offense. The Chiefs are the best team in the NFL but can the bring the intensity needed to win week in week out? AFC South 1. Indianapolis Colts: 12-4 (Last Year: 7-9)     Win Total: 9.5 OVER 2.Tennessee Titans: 9-7 (Last Year: 9-7)     Win Total: 9 PUSH STAY AWAY 3. Houston Texa...

2020 NFC Preview: Divisions Winners and Win Total Predictors!

Image
 2020 NFC Preview This is a barebones breakdown of each NFC Division and how their records should play out. I have combed through every single teams schedule and broken down each game based on my projections for this season.  This is a preseason preview and prediction solely, each week in the NFL the entire league can change based off a couple break out players or key injuries. The Biggest movers from last season to this season are: Bucs/Cardinals win total projected to improve by 3 wins. Rams and Panthers both fall -4 in their win total from last season, expect Sean McVay to be on the hotseat but this season will have so much outside pressures affecting gameplay I do not expect them to fire Sean McVay Tom Brady joining the conference will have an impact but potentially not as giant as some people are expecting, remember this is not prime Brady, but he is still a big improvement from the 30 interceptions thrown last year by Winston, the Bucs will not lose close games because o...

Wonder Woman 1984 Plot Theory

Image
This theory is based off of all promotional trailers and clips, and interviews including today’s DCFandome SPOILERS if I am correct (I think I am) The film opens with Diana Prince / Wonder Woman (Gal Gadot) and Barbara Minerva (aka Cheetah played by Kristen Wiig) working together in the 1980s in a museum, maybe the Smithsoneum in Washington D.C., and they are close friends who work and hangout together. Barbara is a more shy person who only really opens herself up to Diana and really wants to come out of her shell but is too nervous and shy.  We get flashbacks of Diana on Themyscira, home of the Amazons, showing her competing multiple times in the Amazonian Games competing against her amazonian sisters. In the background of the story we become aware of the Cold War going on, meanwhile a new political candidate comes onto the scene to challenge Ronald Reagan for the US Presidency. Maxwell Lord is this charismatic character, who is a billionaire who is using his money and power for p...

Future of MCU's Spider-Man and Casting of the Sinister Six Part 1 !

Image
       Spider-Man and Batman are widely regarded as the two superheroes with the best rogues gallery of super villains. But sadly for the most part we have never seen them in their full glory on the big screen before. Batman has had amazing successes with Heath Ledger's Joker, Cillian Murphy's Scarecrow and Tom Hardy's Bane, but for the most part Spider-Man has had significantly less success. I personally loved Willem Dafoe's Norman Osborn but he was not really comic accurate. We were able to watch Dafoe chew scenery as this mad villain more akin to Hobgoblin but never the true billionaire villain hiding in plain sight. Alfred Molina was really our best onscreen Spider-Man villain we have seen, in the movie's ability to take the character from the page and portray him accurately on screen.     We now have a very unique situation where we finally might be able to get this incredible crossover showing off the true depth of the villain bullpen in the MCU. In S...

"MCU Phase 4 Predictions and Previews UPDATE"

Image
On my previous MCU Phase 4 post, I put the dates for the upcoming Phase 4 film releases but since then due to the Corona Virus Disney has decided to move back the film dates and here are the updates. I will have the original date first and the new changed dates that the movie is now coming out on. Black Widow 5/1/2020 to 11/6/2020 Eternals 11/6/2020 to 2/12/2021 Shang-Chi 2/12/2020 to 5/7/2021 Doctor Strange 2 5/7/2021 to 11/5/2021 Thor 4 11/5/2021 to 2/18/2022 No new date for Spider-Man 3 yet BUT We got the exciting news of Black Panther 2 and Captain Marvel 2 official dates! There had been talks that Black Panther 2 and Captain Marvel 2, as well as Guardians of the Galaxy 3, will either end Phase 4 or kick off Phase 5 and we still have no confirmation from Kevin Feige as of it yet but we do know these two films are highly anticipated and should be box office gold once they come out. So here I am going to do a preview and prediction f...
