There's a lot! And she's writing a new series on top of Dark Artifices called The Last Hours which will have 3 books in it!

[Katelyn]

I'm hoping to see Batman vs. Superman tonight with my parents and 2 of my siblings. It's at the drive-in, so fingers crossed for good weather!!

[A'laura]

Ooh! I'm seeing that tomorrow with one of my friends! I hate who's playing Bruce Wayne though. Christian Bale was the best

[gabi]

YES!!! Christian Bale! I want him back so badly.

[Claire]

I like Ben Affleck, but I love love Christian Bale and I'm sad he'd not playing Batman anymore.

[A'laura]

Yeah, Ben's cool, just not good enough in my opinion for Batsy

[gabi]

And he looks so much older... *weeps over Christian Bale* XD

[Katelyn]

Christian Bale was definitely the best Batman; I'm interested to see how Ben portrays him. Definitely on Bat's side - he's my dad's favorite :)

[A'laura]

I'm on Batsy's side too. Superman is awesome, but he doesn't compare to Batman

[Katelyn]

In my family, Dad=Batman, Mom=Wonder Woman, me=Wonder Girl, Bro=Red Hood (formerly Robin), Sis=Batgirl. I don't know even remember how this happened....

[Morgan]

Your baby sis told me she's Supergirl.

[Katelyn]

..... I was not aware of this......

[Morgan]

Well, I asked. She came up with an answer.

[Jaye]

I'm on Superman's side. ;) I haven't seen the move yet though. Maybe this weekend if my brother wants to go.

[gabi]

I want to see the movie! But I want Christian Bale. I don't know whose side I'm on. Wonder Woman is in it and I think maybe the Flash and Aquaman?

[Katelyn]

It was OK; there was language (obviously), but it seemed more in your face than usual to us. I won't give any spoilers, but the way they handled the conflict between Batman & Superman was well done. And Wonder Woman had a great role - I don't think the movie would have ended quite as it did without her.

[Katelyn]

I think Ben Affleck did a good job with Batman; I don't really remember much of Christian Bale's Batman, but he didn't seem as human as Ben's did (to me at least). This Batman is still tortured by his parents' murders and the desire to revenge them.

[Brie]

I actually heard that such a movie exists a few weeks ago. It does sound like an interesing concept.

[Alyssa]

Tonight we're watching Man of Steel, so we can watch B vs S soon. I'm team Batman (and Iron Man, for CA: CW.)

[A'laura]

Hi everyone, please pray for my friend and his family. His mother just recently passed away. She was riding her bike and got hit by a man in a car. She died of major head injuries.

[Amanda]

Oh my goodness! Yeah. Of course.

[Alyssa]

Yes, definitely!

[Katelyn]

Praying!

[Firefly]

:( :( :( I'll definitely be praying for him and his family.

[Stargazer]

Praying for them.

[A'laura]

Thank you all so much! I'll let them know I've got some more friends praying!

[gabi]

OH MY! That is terrible. I can't even imagine. I'll be praying!

[Stargazer]

Hey A'laura, how is your friend and his family doing?

[A'laura]

He's doing so much better, Stargazer! The week after school he just seemed so blank and empty inside. The usual light in his eyes was gone but now it's coming back! Some days, I can tell he's really struggling but he's okay most of the time. He's called me a few times in the middle of the night just feeling helpless and broken but I've helped him a lot. He's basically like my older brother, so we know each other pretty well.

[gabi]

That's great, A'laura.

[Rachel :)]

Prayers for your friend!!

On the topic of B/M vs S, I didn't really like it!! Compared to CW, it was terrible. There was one scene that made me uncomfortable (if you've seen it you probably understand!) and I was CONFUSED the whole time! Lol! But Civil War was SO GREAT!

[Katelyn]

CW was so much better than B/M vs. S! Marvel certainly makes better movies. I liked parts of B/M vs. S, but I will live if I never see it again. There was one scene at the beginning that totally ruined Superman for me; bye bye, Boy Scout.
I did like Ben Affleck as Batman; I think he showed a little more humanity than Bale did (but, then again, I only saw Dark Knight Rises, and I hated that.)

[A'laura]

Civil War is by far my favorite marvel movie ever. They didn't kill anyone I dearly love *coughbuckycaptonyclintnatasha* :) lol

[Rachel :)]

IKR! I was scared to go see it because I thought one of my faves was gonna die!

[A'laura]

I thought they were going to kill Bucky!! He's my favorite if you couldn't tell lol! My friend saw it before I did and we were texting while she was watching it. I kept asking her "IS MY BUCKY OKAY?! IS EVERYONE I LOVE OKAY?! BUT MOSTLY IS BUCKY OKAY!" And she kept saying that he was okay so I was fine XD

[Morgan]

I'm still processing Civil War (and I saw it a week and a half ago), but I loved it! Team Cap all the way! Poor, poor Bucky. They have to fix him. And despite being on Tony's side (by hire) I loved Tom Holland's Spider-Man. Yes, more than Tobey Maguire's. This one, he was like a real teenager. And so funny. And such a fan of them all. :D But Cap's still my favorite. <3

[A'laura]

I didn't really care for Vision all that much either. Black Panther is really cool! I'm excited for more of him! I LOVED this Spider-Man! I think he's my favorite one. He seems more like how Spidey should be.

[deborah]

I was so happy to see Hawkeye because he's my fave. ^_^ Well... him and Bucky. XD I WANNA SEE IT AGAIIIIN! *flails*

[A'laura]

HAWKEYE IS AMAZING!!! When I was first introduced to him I didn't really care for him but now he's one of my all time favorites. Not as favorite as Bucky. I love Bucky! Lol!!

[deborah]

HAWKEYE AND BUCKY ARE THE BESSSST! :D

[A'laura]

YES!!! They make me so happy. When I found out they were doing the Winter Soldier storyline I cried because I was so happy that's I'd see more Bucky! XD

[Morgan]

I think half the reason I love Bucky is all the fangirling rubbing off on me. XD

[Alyssa]

Really? All the fangirling makes me like him less... :/

[Katelyn]

Clint and Vision are my 2 favorite Avengers. Steve is as well, but not as much. And of course, don't forget the lady Avengers :D

[A'laura]

I've loved Bucky from the beginning!

[Jaye]

I'm with, Deborah! Hawkeye is my favorite. We need a Hawkeye movie, like NOW.

Ha, Morgan, I think it's rubbing off on me too. Then again, you know me and tortured heroes. There would probably be something wrong with me if I didn't love Bucky.

[Alyssa]

YES, Hawkeye!

[A'laura]

I want a Hawkeye movie too! And Black Widow! I'm so curious about the Red Room and her ballet and stuff.

I also want a movie about what happened in Budapest with them too!

And I don't care that Clint is married and has kids. I still ship Clintasha. I just can't get away from them.

YAY, Jaye agrees with me! :D *feels awesome somehow* Hawkeye's the best and we totally need a movie about him. :D And... yeah, Bucky's definitely one of those "tortured heroes". ;) I loveth him.

I also LOVE the concept of a good guy turned into a monster by science, so that's probably the other half. ;) But so much of my Marvel love comes from my friends fangirling on Pinterest. And then from Cap and Hawkeye and the Bill Bixby Hulk (though I'm starting to really like Mark Ruffalo's version) and the snippets of Natasha's very intriguing backstory and all that.
