Thor Ragnarok & Black Panther – What’s coming from Marvel Studios

October 9, 2017 by Jill 2 Comments

I love a good old-fashioned movie date night. My husband, Lee, and I used to go to the movies together all the time when we were dating but since marriage, kids, and all that, we don’t have our movie dates as often as we used to. We do more movie outings as a family or the more economical family movie night at home. I’d say we probably only see about five movies a year as a couple, so we limit our movie dates to films we’re both really excited to see. Obviously, Thor Ragnarok has made the cut and it has nothing to do with the fact that Chris Hemsworth as Thor is quite something to look at.

Okay, I’m lying about that. But it’s not just that. Take a sneak peek at this trailer and you’ll see why I’m so pumped about seeing this one in theaters:

 

See?

@Marvel rolling out #ThorRagnarok and #BlackPanther in Nov 17 & Feb 18

In Marvel Studios’ THOR: RAGNAROK, Thor is imprisoned on the other side of the universe without his mighty hammer and finds himself in a race against time to get back to Asgard to stop Ragnarok—the destruction of his homeworld and the end of Asgardian civilization—at the hands of an all-powerful new threat, the ruthless Hela. But first he must survive a deadly gladiatorial contest that pits him against his former ally and fellow Avenger—the Incredible Hulk!

In addition to Chris Hemsworth, the cast includes Cate Blanchett, Idris Elba, Jeff Goldblum, Tessa Thompson and Karl Urban, with Mark Ruffalo and Anthony Hopkins. This lineup alone is enough to make Thor Ragnarok date night list-worthy! I know where I’ll be on November 3rd!

But, do you know why I’m really excited to see Thor Ragnarok? Cate Blanchett as Hela. As much as I love looking at Chris Hemsworth (fine, I admit it) I do love me a good villian and, if this little snippet is any indication, Cate Blanchett plays her role as Hela to perfection.


If Thor Ragnarok isn’t your thing, that’s cool. I have another teaser for you.

Wait…back up the bus. It is not cool. If you’re not excited to see this movie, there’s something wrong with you!

Marvel Studios has another biggie up their sleeves with the release of Black Panther in February 2018.

Marvel Studios’ BLACK PANTHER follows T’Challa who, after the death of his father, the King of Wakanda, returns home to the isolated, technologically advanced African nation to succeed to the throne and take his rightful place as king. But when a powerful old enemy reappears, T’Challa’s mettle as king—and Black Panther—is tested when he is drawn into a formidable conflict that puts the fate of Wakanda and the entire world at risk. Faced with treachery and danger, the young king must rally his allies and release the full power of Black Panther to defeat his foes and secure the safety of his people and their way of life.

Sounds awesome, right? Seven months is a long time to wait! COME ON February!

Hope you’ve enjoyed your little sneak peak at what Marvel Studios has in store later this year and early next. I’m not sure how they can top these releases…but I’m sure they’ll figure out a way.

All About Jill

Hey there and welcome! My name is Jill Robbins and this is my space on the internet. I’m happy you are here. Just so you know, if this weren’t the internet, I’d be smiling awkwardly and answering simple questions like “how are you today” with gems like “Me too!” and “Great, but I forgot to put on deodorant.” I’m that person.

My kids and I spent a week on Florida's Emerald Co My kids and I spent a week on Florida's Emerald Coast in June. I've gotten a lot of ❓about traveling to Florida - and traveling in general during these pandemic times - so I'll try to answer a few and give some good information about Destin/Fort Walton Beach.
.
It's easy to social distance on the gorgeous beaches. June/July is their busy season so you will see people but it's easy to maintain distance on the beach & in the water.
.
If you want to eat in a restaurant, there are plenty of choices. We preferred places w/ open air seating & there are lots. Obviously, the seafood is fresh & amazing. If you are a 🍣 person, you'll be in heaven.
.
All of the typical water activities - surfing, snorkeling, scuba - are still happening - and you can check each individual tour company's COVID-19 policy. We did a tour with Destin Snorkel that I highly recommend for beginner snorkelers or kids. It's easy to keep your space in the water but impossible to maintain the six-feet rule on the boat. You can wear a 😷 if you choose but masks were not required at the time of my visit and I didn't see very many people wearing them.
.
My general pandemic travel tips:
1️⃣don't travel if you're sick or showing symptoms.  2️⃣road trips over flying.
3️⃣condo or vacation home over hotel.
4️⃣outdoor activities where you can maintain social distance.
5️⃣bring/make your own food or order takeout. If you eat out, look for open-air eateries, and places that are committed to reducing spread (i.e. single-use or QR code menus).
6️⃣if you're not comfortable, don't travel. This is a really personal decision & it's going to vary from family to family & location to location.

This guy turned 10 20 days ago. He "didn't want to This guy turned 10 20 days ago. He "didn't want to make it a big deal." We went to eat Chinese food - with the stipulation we didn't tell the server it was his birthday and then went to the beach the following day. We stayed in Port Aransas down on the Texas Gulf Coast and spent the next few days with our toes in the sand.
.
Like all the birthdays this year, Z's entry into the double digits probably wasn't what he imagined or what he wanted. He'd been asking for a party - which we usually don't do and earlier in the year, we said we'd think about it. After the onset of the pandemic he'd talked about inviting one friend to play laser tag or go to an arcade and we were looking at doing that when the COVID rates went up and our state enforced new restrictions...which I'm not complaining about but it is hard to make a 10-year-old fully understand this stuff.
.
We are in that sweet pocket where I can glimpse the four-year-old and the man he'll be someday.
.
He didn't want "to make a big deal" out of his birthday but it's still a big deal to me. And y'all...time is a thief and I don't like it. 😫😫

We built lots of fires and spent a lot of time in the river. More later on the experience...I have lots to tell!

Sometimes, you need to slow down a little bit. Tra Sometimes, you need to slow down a little bit. Trading in my SUV for a golf cart this week and my kids are trading screen time for splashing in the river. Jellystone has a posted speed limit of 5 1/2 mph so we're hitting pause on life in the fast lane. Just kidding. We don't live in the fast lane but that doesn't mean we didn't need to go at a slower pace for a few days. Jellystone is an awesome place to do just that - although there's a lot to do here if you want to keep busier than we've been keeping.

I can't wait to share more about JellystonePark on the Guadalupe River in Kerrville. I’ve wanted to bring my family here since forever and we’ve had the best time. ⛺️ 🌲

Today I'm answering some of your questions about o Today I'm answering some of your questions about our trip to Brazosport TX. You can save this post to reference later.
.
❓Where/What is Brazosport? Brazosport is the region of TX that encompasses Lake Jackson, Clute, Surfside, Quintana and Freeport. All very small towns w/the exception of Lake Jackson. Brazosport is about 65 miles south of Houston.
.
❓What are the beaches like? Typical TX beaches. Darker, sand w/high clay content. If you want white sand and clear turquoise water you'll have to go further southeast into Alabama & the Florida panhandle. Super uncrowded. Water was pretty calm when we went although that varies w/ weather. Very easy to maintain social distance. There are four different beaches. We went to Surfside Beach & Follet's Beach. Surfside requires a permit to drive on the beach and Follet's is free. Follet's, IMO, is a better beach all around. Not a lot of stores/amenities near the beaches so bring what you need.
.
❓Are there other things to do besides go to the beach? While the biggest reason to visit this area, IMO, is the beach, there are some other things to do, including two things I put in the DO NOT MISS category. ➡️ for some sneak peeks. Wanna know what they are? Stay tuned for more info about the 2020 Texas Travel Planner that Texas Travel Talk is debuting soon. Brazosport is part of a guide on how to safely and responsibly road trip in the state of Texas this summer and I can't wait to see it all come together.
.
Whether to travel or not right now is a super personal decision but stay tuned for some tips to travel safely within Texas. #TxRoadTrip20
