When it comes to making kids movies, Disney pretty much owns the playing field. That’s largely because the movies don’t just appeal to children. Sure, the stories are generally geared more toward younger audiences, but the messages hit home for just about everyone, regardless of age. Disney has managed to make people fall in love with everything from a magic carpet to robots to a community of cars. It’s impressive what they can do with typically inanimate objects, and their human characters are even more impactful....

The hype for Deadpool 2 is off the charts. The original Deadpool was one of the most unexpected success stories in Hollywood, proving a hard R-rated superhero movie could rake in just as much money as more kid-friendly superhero fare. Audiences finally figured out what comic fans have known all along: that Wade Wilson is an extremely entertaining and endearing comic book character, who breaks through the fourth wall as often as he breaks his enemies bones, stealing our hearts in the process....

Female characters have been severely lacking in superhero movies over the years — at least in comparison to their male counterparts, that is. These days, they’re becoming more prominent, with the likes of Wonder Woman and Captain Marvel set to get their own movies, and the likes of Black Widow and Scarlet Witch already playing important supporting roles in major Marvel Cinematic Universe story arcs. They have, however, been in short supply as a general rule....

Today the app has been updated to version 4.5, which brings the biggest update to the app’s design since the 4.0 release. With this update, the entire app has once again been redesigned completely, this time for compliance with iOS 7’s new look. You’ll still find the layout familiar, though some tweaks have been made to a few areas....

Even if you’re a purely product-based business or work for a big organization and think you don’t have a personal brand…you do! When you have a strong and engaging personal brand, it gives you a major headstart on everything you do — whether that’s growing your following, increasing your revenue, building awareness of your brand or skyrocketing your influence. But, how do you go about growing and nurturing your own personal brand?...

In the world of TV there are many iconic couples that we can’t imagine our favorite shows without. There’s Lucy and Ricky from I Love Lucy, Corey and Topanga from Boy Meets World, and Jim and Pam from The Office, to name a few. These shows just wouldn’t be the same without these pairings, but even when the chemistry is there, some of TV’s most popular “end game” couples simply make no sense....

A story that started out as one book – Harry Potter and the Philosopher’s Stone – has grown larger than anyone could ever imagine. From a book series of seven installments, to eight movies adapting those books, a theme park, a play, and now the Fantastic Beasts films, it has become its own unique world, known to many as the Potterverse. The Potterverse consists of all the aforementioned books, movies, theme parks, plays, and more....

Last week was a big one for fans of the ever-expanding DC universe on The CW. Arrow reached its hundredth episode, and on top of that milestone, we got to enjoy an entire week of crossover episodes. Arrow, The Flash, Supergirl and Legends of Tomorrow teamed up to take on an alien invasion in a four-part crossover extravaganza, and it was absolutely epic! The four-episode team up (well, three-episode team up, plus a few minutes of last week’s Supergirl) was chock full of amazing moments, inside jokes, geeky references, and glorious team shots....

It seems like our bizarre obsession with doppelgängers or lookalikes is in no danger of subsiding any time soon. It’s a spooky but rather satisfying thing to know that there could be someone out there who looks in the mirror and sees the same reflection as you do. Yes, it’s incredibly narcissistic, too. In case you haven’t discovered it yet, there’s even an app that allows you to find your fine-art duplicate....

Horror movies have been around for a long time. The title of the first ever horror movie is often credited to Georges Méliès’ Le Manoir du Diable, translated to The House of the Devil. However, the three-minute short film may not be unsettling by today’s standards, since special effects have no doubt improved since 1896. Along with better special effects, later horror movies often included more gore and twisted storylines. While the horror genre is a relatively general term, there are sub-genres of horror like slashers and psychological thrillers that have also gotten critical acclaim....

Already by the end of 2021, several TV shows that demonstrated significant promise were canceled with no plans to return in 2022. Among them included Y: The Last Man on Hulu and FX, Generation on HBO Max, Peacock’s Punky Brewster reboot, and ABC’s Rebel. As the year continues on, more and more shows are becoming part of the canceled shows 2022 roster and getting the ax from linear networks and streaming services....

1) Explain what is REST and RESTFUL? REST represents REpresentational State Transfer; it is a relatively new aspect of writing web API. RESTFUL is referred for web services written by applying REST architectural concept are called RESTful services, it focuses on system resources and how state of resource should be transported over HTTP protocol to different clients written in different language. In RESTFUL web service HTTP methods like GET, POST, PUT and DELETE can be used to perform CRUD operations....

In many ways, both big and small, television is in the business of selling us the future. Whenever you flip the channels, you’re likely to find a range of fortune tellers – infomercial psychics that swear they can see all, and cable news pollsters that try to predict the outcome of everything from a horse race to the presidential election. Most of the time, they’re not right, but sometimes, TV can be pretty freaking accurate when it tries to guess what’s going to come next....

A good TV show can go on for nine or ten seasons (sometimes more). This allows us to spend literally hundreds of hours with our favorite characters, cheerfully watching them grow from the pilot to the series finale. It’s hard to believe that a lot of our most beloved characters almost didn’t exist. If you go back and watch the pilot for some of your favorite shows you’ll find that your favorite stars are almost unrecognizable....

fWhen it comes to creating great concepts for TV shows, it is usually probably best to leave the theorizing and plot points to that show’s writers. But TV fans who really pay attention to their favorite shows often come up with plot ideas and twists that actually make as much sense as what those writers eventually might come up with. Every television show has its share of fan theories that end up somewhere on the Internet (Tumblr or Reddit are often full of conspiracy theories about television shows)....

It doesn’t matter whether you consider it a video game movie, a comic book movie, or just an action/comedy about nerd culture in general– Scott Pilgrim vs. the World is one of the best examples of all three. Directed and co-written by Edgar Wright of Shaun of the Dead fame and starring a cast of well-known but still-rising stars, Scott Pilgrim unfortunately wasn’t a huge box office success. However, the film had strong critical praise and has since gone on to be considered a modern classic with a huge fanbase....

The Gossip Girl TV show may never have gotten as scandalous as the books did, and it would never have aired on the CW if it did. The show still had its fair share of insane moments – and in some cases, those big, shocking moments took things a bit too far, especially considering that the series was about teenagers. Their parents were involved, too, and most of the surprising storylines didn’t involve them, or at least not just them....

When it comes to Marvel, there is no shortage of heroes that stand out. However, the heroine Wasp possesses a certain quality which helps to set her apart from other heroes. It is somewhat ironic that even though her powers mostly involve shrinking down to the size of an insect, she still succeeds in drawing the most attention. While her partne Ant-Man is the brains of the duo (at least for the Hank Pym incarnation), Wasp still succeeds in out doing him....
