Out of all the superhero rivalries, none are more intense or more comedic than the one between Hulk and Thor. As the Avengers two strongest members, Thor and Hulk have occasionally come to blows every now and then for a variety of reasons. Sometimes their fights are on such a massive scale they cause wide scale destruction in their wake. Other times, they fight over the smallest things such as who is the strongest Avenger or even for absolutely no reason at all....

Is there a better popcorn thriller than 1994’s Speed? Thanks to its novel premise and breakneck pacing – not to mention the chemistry between leads Keanu Reeves and Sandra Bullock – we’d argue there isn’t. Director Jan de Bont does a brilliant job of wringing every ounce of tension possible out of the concept of a bus that can’t slow down without detonating a bomb. de Bont – working from the blueprint provided by screenwriters Graham Yost and Joss Whedon – never lost sight of what makes a movie truly nail-biting: the human element....

Video games are more popular now than ever before, but while gamers love to launch into their favorite title, things do not always go as expected. Since video games are so complicated and complex to create, there are often glitches or errors that can pop up within them. Sometimes they are so bad that it sours gamers from that title for life, while other times the glitches are so funny and entertaining that the video game company leaves them in as something that eagle-eyed fans can discover when they do something right....

The best YA movies and TV shows appeal to audiences of all ages, because their themes are universal. We all may gladly leave our terrible teen experiences in our rearview mirror, but that doesn’t mean that we weren’t irrevocably shaped by them anyway. High school is awkward, needlessly cruel, and incredibly uncomfortable. Most feel lucky to survive the ordeal at all. Although few franchises have or ever will soar to the heights of Harry Potter, the YA craze in film and television doesn’t appear to be going anywhere....

According to KGI Securities analyst Ming-Chi-Kuo, Apple’s 2014 iPhone update is set to include a model with a larger display. Kuo pinpoints the screen increase to be between 4.5 and 5 inches. He also says that the display will continue to be based off of the in-cell touch screen technology. This display configuration, introduced with the iPhone 5, allows Apple to install thinner displays, and this means overall svelter phones....

Macworld has a wishlist piece on the 2019 iPhone. Some of it is uncontroversial and very likely to happen – things like a better neural engine and improved Face ID (including landscape operation, like the new iPad Pro). But the site’s Jason Cross also proposes something Apple is extremely unlikely to do: making the 2019 iPhone a little thicker … Why? Cross suggests it could offer three benefits: Lose the camera bump Increase the battery capacity Accommodate a USB-C port in place of Lightning If we’re willing to countenance a thicker iPhone, the first two benefits seem no-brainers....

Hulk is one of the most beloved characters in Marvel’s entire history. He was one of the first creations of Stan Lee and Jack Kirby, he’s appeared in almost every animated series, he’s starred in his own incredibly successful TV show, and he’s had two theatrical movies before smashing his way into the MCU. He is, without a doubt, one of the most iconic characters in the Marvel pantheon. Because of this, people assume a lot of things about him and those things are not always correct....

Instagram has announced that the social media service is being used by 25 million businesses (including us!) as of November. It has seen strong growth over the last few months as business users have increased by 9 million in the last four months. Instagram shared the business focused update in a blog post. Last month, it announced that its Stories feature alone is seeing 300M daily active users, almost doubling Snapchat’s metrics....

Movie productions usually have to overcome a lot of hurdles, but the show must go on. When the star of the show turns out to be pregnant, the process is no different. The production team has to find some way to roll with it. Often, the pregnancy cannot be worked into the story without changing it significantly, so the only thing left to do is hide the star’s baby bump from the camera....

In 2021, it was forecasted that the livestream eCommerce industry will generate 11 billion US dollars. It’s anticipated that by 2024, the eCommerce revenue generated by means of live online shopping will increase threefold to reach 35 billion dollars. So, you still have time to take advantage of this online shopping trend, but, to do so, you’ll also need the right software solution. While the host and products play a crucial role, the software is one of the key elements in creating good livestream shopping videos and can offer you many added perks to increase your sales....

Website traffic is great. Leads are also very helpful. Though, if you don’t explore ways to convert these into paying customers, there’s not much use to continue running your eCommerce website. Providing various payment options is also one of the most effective ways to deal with shopping cart abandonment problems. Plus, by offering “newer” payment options like Klarna, you can also cater to a bigger audience that includes millennial and Gen Z consumers....

When it comes to creating television for the teen demographic, one network has risen above all others in the last decade: The CW. Its programming, which ranges from horror to soap operas to superhero shows, has a wide range of extremely dedicated fans, built from solid writing, timely social dynamics, and very attractive actors. The CW claims a long list of successes, but it isn’t perfect. There are quite a few characters that the shows on the network would very much like everyone to forget....

You may already be using Twitter on a daily basis to follow your favorite brands and take part in trending conversations. But what about using Twitter for your business? Perhaps you understand the benefits of Twitter but not sure how exactly to use it for your business.

How long does it take for you to know if you’re going to keep watching a TV show? A few episodes? A season? If either of those answers apply to you, then you’ll probably be pleased to know that you are one of the patient ones. For many people, the amount of time it takes for them to know whether or not they’re going to bother watching a show is mere minutes....

With over a 100 remakes currently in the works, spanning every genre, there are plenty of fantasy movie classics that will be coming to a theater near you in the future. Who doesn’t want to see mighty warriors in loincloths, fire-breathing dragons, and royalty in distress? It’s a tale as old as time, and studios are doing the same for classic sci-fi and horror movies as well. These fantasy stories are classics with high nostalgia factors that Hollywood plans to bank on....

The internet can be a truly scary place. From dark fan theories explaining popular kids shows to some undeniably twisted fanfiction, there are a lot of dark corners on the web. However, there are also happy places. There’s well-written fanfiction, stories where popular franchises cross over, and a number of sites where brilliant artists share their incredible work. More and more artists are finding inspiration and support from online communities, and as a result, we are getting some empowering creations....

It’s hard to even imagine at this point in time, but there was, in fact, a moment in movie history when Marvel movies were not a guaranteed home run at the box office. Believe it or not, but there was a stretch of time when a whole bunch of these beloved superhero properties actually missed the mark when it came to selling tickets at theaters. While audiences today almost universally praise Kevin Feige’s management of the Marvel Cinematic Universe, there were many years where mighty Marvel movies raking in megabucks was anything but a sure thing....

The three Back to the Future movies are easily the best-known time travel stories ever told. Audiences won’t be forgetting Avengers: Endgame any time soon, but Back to the Future will always be the movie that made audiences across the world believe in time travel and root for a protagonist who just wanted to set the timeline straight and ensure that he would be born. The culture clash of an ‘80s kid in ‘50s America, or an ‘80s kid in 2010s America, or an ‘80s kid in the Old West, were all just the comedic cherry on top....

After years of waiting, Pokemon Sun and Moon are finally here! While it’s always nice to take an updated walk through the older games, Nintendo is easily at its best when it’s introducing new regions, characters, and Pokemon into the series. Generation VII is no exception: it’s clear that Nintendo has gone above and beyond to shake up the series’ long-running formula. Nowhere is this more evident than with the new Alolan Pokemon: these new creatures are some of the most creative Pokemon in years, with a wide variety of shapes, sizes, skills, and elemental Types....

The movie 1917 is the frontrunner for the winner of Best Picture at the 92nd Annual Academy Awards. Though it is up against eight other worthy and critically-acclaimed feature films - all in very diverse genres, including an absurdist Nazi comedy by Taika Waititi, a 1960s revisionist history romp by Quentin Tarantino to a Korean cinematic titan by Bong Joon Ho that’s disrupting all expectations - there are myriad reasons why this historical war drama deserves to take home the top prize....
