While Marvel’s TV shows are definitely part of the same universe as Marvel’s movies, the characters overlap only occasionally. And when they do, it tends to be movie characters dropping by the show, not the other way around. But it sounds like some of the MCU’s upcoming small-screen stars will get the chance to crash the big-screen party. According to a new rumor, Netflix’s Defenders team will show up in an upcoming Avengers movie. After the jump, read up on the Defenders Avengers rumor.

We know Christian from films like Batman (2005) and Terminator Salvation (2009) which are huge blockbusters. He is also happy to do independent and low budget movies. Christian’s first brake in to films was Steven Spielberg film Empire of the Sun (1987). The film tells the story of Jamie “Jim” Graham, a young boy who goes from living in a wealthy British family in Shanghai, to becoming a prisoner of war in a Japanese internment camp, during World War ll.

My blog does cover all of the elements from the assignment were the other blogs are done this to a very high standard compare to mine. How I would change my blog is I would not have so many elements into the blog unless it enhances the pieces I am trying to write up. Were I was required to have these elements in for my college project. These two blogs have a lot more interactive features then what is on mine. These two blog were reviewing films that are coming out soon or just have been released. My blog was were has the actor come from and were will they are going. They have a lot more information on their web sites and they look more professional but in saying that the blog called Blogging the Reel World format is similar to my set up. In the blogs called The Movie Blog and Blogging the Reel World have more features like news, reviews, trailers, posters, interviews and cool stuff so there was more depth to the blog. Where my blog was one page and added features due to the fact I don’t know how to do the extra tabs. This is a skill I feel I need to know to get a good quality work for the blog. I am sure if it was not a college project and I had the time I need to give it I could have produced a better blog.
Task 2 Before I had created this blog I had never done this before so it was a learning curve. I had to learn the skills as I was going a long. I had to create the blog myself and it was by trail and error. I found it to be very frustrating 10

because I did not know what I was doing. It took me a long time to get the blog started. When I did finally get it started I was behind the rest of the class so I was playing catch up. Joanna was very understanding and encouraging. I learnt how to upload pictures, video and audio. Which some time was a hit and miss. I found uploading photographs and video was so easy but having to add audio was not so easy. I had major problems getting recording from my phone to the computer and then upload to either soundcloud or the blog. With this project I used the skills I learnt last year like how research an article and how to write the pieces up. I have always said that I am not creative so doing a visual project was always going to be a change for me. But I feel that I have achieved what I wanted to do when I started this project. I feel I did well in this blog considering it is my first one. But I know if I were going to do it again I would do things differently. I would take more time to work out how I what the project to look. I feel my graphics were very basic and simple. I feel it was the best I was able to achieve at the time with my skill set. I would incorporated more features like celebrated news, reviews, new releases etc. I would try and make it more interactive and interesting.
