I remember one day in 2002 when I was 8 years old, I went over to my cousin’s house. Down in the basement, she was playing this strange game on her PlayStation 2. I instantly recognized Donald and Goofy, but couldn’t tell who the person she was playing as was. Little did I know that that day would bring me a love (17 years and counting) of the Kingdom Hearts franchise....
X-Men Fans may never know why Wolverine’s metal claws and bone claws look so different, but we know this much: audiences weren’t supposed to see the screws in them in the first movie. Cyclops may have an awesome power, but he needs to manually fire his optic blasts by pressing his visor - except in the movie’s opening, when it fires a controlled blast all by itself. It turns out Magneto can’t just control metal - he can control time itself, going by the reversed footage sold out by the exhaust flowing back into a police cruiser’s tailpipe....
Now, as these government communications leaders settle into their home offices (and perhaps become more familiar than they’d like with the pitfalls of videoconferencing), the reality of the work ahead is setting in. Crisis response requires consistent, clear and accurate communication, especially when public health is in question. While some office workers might be enjoying work-from-home in their pajamas, most of these public servants suddenly find themselves working overtime. Keeping up with constantly-changing information and communicating it clearly to city or county populations without creating panic is hard work....
Founded in 1934 as National Allied Publications, DC Comics resulted from the merger of a number of different publishers and took their name from the popular Detective Comics book that introduced Batman, among other things. Since that time, they’ve become one of the two biggest comic book publishers in the world, spending decades battling Marvel to see which would reign supreme. Over the years, both companies have expanded into television and films, as well as various other media....

Anytime a young adult (or YA) fiction book becomes blatantly popular among young readers, there is a high chance it will be turned into a movie. Sometimes, it will even be turned into a franchise. The movie’s success is almost predetermined, and this is not uncommon. YA movies are extremely lucrative, with loyal fans visiting theaters numerous times to see their favorite characters come to life. While Harry Potter may have prompted the book-to-screen era, it was Twilight that allowed YA novels to suddenly come to the limelight and take over movie screens....
While everyone is busy keeping up with the Kardashians or reliving the Royal Wedding, there’s another epic family that we all need to talk about – the Skarsgårds. Whether you realize it or not, you likely know of one if not more of the Skarsgård men, and you’ve definitely seen at least one of their movies. Stellan Skarsgård, patriarch and all around cool, hippy dad, is responsible for gifting us with these tall, handsome, and talented individuals....
So, you may or may not be aware that we have a new Star Warsmovie coming out soon. Seriously, in less than a month. Although Rogue One: A Star Wars Story isn’t part of the main saga, its trailers promise incredible cinematography, memorable characters, and even some cameos from familiar faces. Hopefully, this new entry into the lore will live up to the lofty expectations set by its predecessors. Star Wars has given us some of the greatest moments in movie history throughout its nearly forty-year span....
In 1972, the world’s first home video game system was released. At the time, the Magnavox Odyssey was considered a cutting-edge piece of technology. Since then, video game technology has evolved by leaps and bounds. Today, innovations in video game systems often revolve around a variety of platforms. This includes platforms like PC and video game console platforms such as the PlayStation for Sony, and Xbox for Microsoft. Even handheld gaming systems have been revolutionized thanks to Nintendo....
2019 will be the year of superhero movies, seeing the release of a record-setting amount: a whopping eleven films. As the superhero movie craze continues, next year looks poised to be the prime example of how invested Hollywood as a whole really is. There’s the usual amount of Marvel movies, but increased output from Warner Bros. and DC, as well as some final Fox X-Men titles. All of these make up an astonishing ten confirmed 2019 superhero movies....
San Diego Comic-Con 2016 is just a few months away (at the time of writing this), meaning that soon fans from around the globe will be gathering to celebrate the latest in pop culture. Arguably, the main attraction of the event is Hall H, where several of the major movie studios organize panels to discuss upcoming projects and show off exclusive footage for those in attendance. It’s a great way to generate buzz and excitement for a new film, as was evidenced by the enthusiastic reception to the Deadpool and Suicide Squad presentations last year....
Now, I love Sailor Moon. The original anime is one of my favorite shows. I grew up on it. I spent my days playing with my Inner Senshi dolls with reruns of their show playing in the background. In my opinion, this is one of the greatest girl-power shows of all time. And I love me a good girl-power show. I have spent the better half of the past month watching episodes from the first season of the show and wishing that I could become a sailor scout myself....
Doctor Doom reigns as the Fantastic Four’s ultimate nemesis and perhaps the greatest Marvel Comics supervillain overall. As fans await his emergence in the MCU, they may want to consider the numerous Doom variants in the comics. Alternate takes on the Avengers inspired their live-action counterparts and the same may be true for the iconic villain. Many fans speculate Doctor Doom could make his MCU debut in Black Panther: Wakanda Forever....
Ever buy a DVD or Blu-ray and watch the “alternate ending” contained in the special features? It’s fun to see a vision of what might have been and compare it to what actually was. Most times, the unused ending turns out to be unused for a very good reason. Every once in a while, it goes the other way, and you can’t believe the filmmakers didn’t use the brilliant finale they had right in front of them....
The premise of 90 Day Fiancé is simple - it’s a reality show that follows couples who live in different countries but are finally coming together in-person with the intention of getting married. The catch is that they have 90 days to get married or their non-U.S. partner must leave the U.S. and return to their home country. While it sounds like the plot of a competition series, these rules were not actually conceived by the show’s producers, but rather are mandated by the United States government....
Joss Whedon has spent years crafting what has been affectionately titled the “Whedonverse”. He has built entire worlds from the ground up, each one of them populated by unforgettable characters. Whedon’s shows have transcended what people thought that television was even capable of. They’ve altered expectations, perceptions, even speech patterns. Over the years, Whedon has become known not only for creating lovable and relatable characters, but also for often casting the same people to play them....
Deep Space Nine was the first Star Trek series that parked its crew on a space station and didn’t let them explore much. It started a little slowly, but once it figured out where it fit in, it became – and remains – one of the most popular entries in the science fiction franchise. However, that doesn’t mean it didn’t confuse the heck out of us along the way. When you’re dealing with countless alien species, intergalactic conflict, and inscrutable aliens that somehow live inside a wormhole, things can get a little murky....
With the first Transformers movie premiering in 2007, and Bumblebee in 2018, Optimus Prime and his Autobots have appeared in theaters for over a decade. Initially, the first animated series was made just to sell toys, but now, it’s evolved into a multi-genre, multi-million dollar empire, and the Autobots have become the heroes of Cybertron, Earth, and the universe in their many adventures. While Bumblebee is a fan darling, the true iconic character of the films is Optimus Prime, the lawful leader of the Autobots....
