Now that the Disney and Fox deal has been finalized, Fantastic Four actor Michael Chiklis has expressed an interest in reprising his role as the Thing, but this time as a part of the Marvel Cinematic Universe. The fans who have wanted the X-Men, the Fantastic Four, and the Avengers to co-exist in the same universe may finally get their wish now that Fox has sold its movie and TV assets to Disney....
The characters in Fate: The Winx Saga differ phenomenally from their animated versions. The show bears little resemblance to its predecessor, but those who watched the cartoon can appreciate the unique spin on Fate and the more developed, older feeling characters. These new versions of the characters bring something fresh to show, and they can be sorted into their Hogwarts Houses based on their personalities. Updates on September 28th, 2022 by Amanda Bruce: Alfea might not have a sorting hat to divide its fairies and specialists into different houses, and the elemental magic of the fairies definitely doesn’t fall along house lines....
Felicity Jones is going to play Ruth Bader Ginsburg on the big screen. When longtime jurist Ginsburg was appointed to the U.S. Supreme Court by President Bill Clinton in 1993, she became just the second woman on the high court, and the first Jewish woman. However, even at the time, she didn’t appear a likely candidate to ever be the subject of a biopic. But in her 24 years on the bench, Justice Ginsburg has emerged as something of a folk hero for liberal court watchers and others....
Zynga’s CSR Racing 2 will be adding new Fast & Furious content to the mobile drag racing game starting next week. CSR Racing 2 has already featured Fast & Furious characters in the past, and will be adding a huge swath of new themed events that will feature new cars, challenges, and storylines for players to engage with. Fast & Furious will be a recognizable property for anyone with a passing interest in cars....
Some people are saying Spider-Man: Far From Home is a box office bomb, but that assessment is very wrong. Earlier this month, the concluding chapter of the MCU’s Phase 3 hit theaters, continuing the story of Peter Parker. Picking up shortly after the events of Avengers: Endgame, Far From Home saw Peter grappling between his desire to lead a normal life and fulfilling the responsibilities of being a superhero. Nick Fury recruited Peter for a new world-saving mission partially because he wanted to see if Peter was up to the task of becoming the next Iron Man....
In just over two weeks, Harry Potter fans across the globe will return to the Wizarding World with Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find Them. The film, which was written by Harry Potter creator, J.K. Rowling (her first screenplay), takes place in 1926, and follows Newt Scamander (played by Eddie Redmayne) as he tries to retrieve a bunch of on-the-loose magical creatures. It was recently announced that Fantastic Beasts would be the first film in a series of five that will continue to expand upon the Wizarding World that Rowling created nearly two decades ago....
The release date for the eighth film in the Fast and Furious franchise, Fast 8, is just a little over a year away, and we’ve been hearing a lot about the various locales the film plans to shoot in as the production begins to take shape. Though previous movies were based largely in Los Angeles, with the ensemble cast traveling to several international destinations along the way, star Vin Diesel has revealed the latest film will spend a significant amount of time in New York....

Fan art shows what Stranger Things star Dacre Montgomery could look like as Marvel Studios’ Wolverine. For someone who was initially a wild card when cast, Hugh Jackman grew in the role of Wolverine for Fox. After 17 years of playing the raging mutant, Jackman hung up his claws after a brilliant performance in Logan. His send off appeared to happen at the perfect time too, as Disney soon agreed to buy Fox....
A new series of ridiculous fan posters replaces movie icon Tom Cruise with the 1980s live action version of Howard the Duck. Created by Steve Gerber and Val Mayerick, Howard the Duck first appeared in the Marvel Comic Adventure Into Fear in 1973. A foul-tempered talking alien duck stuck on earth, Howard would make several appearances in subsequent years, in stories that often took on a decidedly satirical bent. Hollywood attempted to bring the alien duck to the big screen with the 1986 live-action movie Howard the Duck, executive produced by none other than George Lucas....
Just when many thought the Harry Potter film franchise had come to a close, Warner Bros. and J.K. Rowling joined forces to create a new five-film series focusing on magizoologist Newt Scamander. Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find Them may not have exploded the way everything else related to the Wizarding World has, but it proved a strong success at the box office and gave WB the confidence to keep moving forward with their plans....
Here’s when Fear The Walking Dead season 5 will return to TV and what viewers can expect when it does. Following on from the season 4 finale, Fear The Walking Dead season 5 kicked off with the show’s survivors playing at being heroes, actively looking for other groups in need of assistance. Jarringly, season 5 began with the main cast crashing a plane into a previously-unexplored area swimming with nuclear radiation....
From 9to5Google: Following Google’s announcement that its RSS Reader product would be retired on July 1st, apps like Feedly that relied on the Google Reader backend announced big plans to help itself and other apps through the transition. Feedly has been preparing its move to its own “feedly cloud” back end since the announcement, and earlier this month transitioned its own iOS client to the platform. Today, Feedly is officially launching the new back end and API, as well as a brand new web interface and the first apps to integrate the feedly cloud platform:...
The Flash showrunner Todd Helbing says fans are wrong about the identity of the mysterious girl that keeps popping up on the show. Fans have speculated that the character, played by Jessica Parker Kennedy, may be the daughter of Barry (Grant Gustin) and Iris (Candice Patton), who has come from the future to visit her parents. During the Supergirl hour of “Crisis on Earth X”, fans were introduced to a mysterious young woman who was working as a caterer at Barry and Iris’ wedding....
Fantastic Beasts And Where To Find Them was released only a few months ago to huge success, receiving multiple awards nominations (including two Oscar nominations) and winning a BAFTA. Much of the excitement over the film was, obviously, from Harry Potter fans who were thrilled to return to J.K. Rowling’s magical world, but a lot of it also came from the stunning visual effects. Warner Brothers spared no expense with the creation of this magical version of New York, and from the buildings to the creatures, Fantastic Beasts And Where To Find Them was one of the most beautiful films of 2016....
More cracks are starting to show in Marvel’s approach in keeping Fox properties out of Marvel video games as the Fantastic Four have finally been added to Marvel Future Fight. Over the past several years, Marvel has been strict about keeping the Fantastic Four and the X-Men out of video games starring Marvel characters, but lately that strategy appears to be changing. That change is most likely due in no small part to the Fox-Disney deal, which will see 20th Century Fox sell all of its film and TV assets to Disney....
It might seem like Furious 7 was just in theaters yesterday, but we’re now quickly closing in on the release of its sequel, Fate of the Furious. The Fast & Furious franchise has changed a lot since its humble inception, but its repeated box office and, more recently, critical success has kept it going, turning it into one of the most profitable franchises of all time. While we all love comic book movies and Star Wars, having another major tentpole that represents an original - yet still unique - property is a great way to get ready for the summer movie season....
By their very nature, season finales are often lightning rods for fans. After all, an entire season’s worth of storylines is expected to come to a satisfying conclusion, and the chances of said conclusion pleasing everybody are usually somewhere between slim and none. Case in point is the recent season 4 finale of Arrow, which capped off what some have called the DC superhero series’ worst season to date. Reactions to the episode have largely ranged from “meh” to “that was terrible,” but one contingent of fans have taken their dislike to the next level, those being the folks overseeing Arrow’s subreddit....
Even though the FBI’s battle with Apple over the San Bernardino iPhone is essentially over, FBI director James Comey today explained that the case is just the beginning of litigation over accessing smartphones and other devices. As reported by Reuters, Comey explained that there will be more litigation between the FBI and manufacturers over accessing locked devices, noting that encryption is “essential tradecraft” of terrorist groups. Comey made these comments during a briefing with reports today, during which he explained that the debate concerning personal device encryption versus national security is far from being over....
Compared to the enthusiastic reactions that The Walking Dead has received from critics and audiences alike for years, the responses to Fear The Walking Dead have been tepid, to say the least. First premiering on AMC in 2015 as the first spin-off of TWD, Fear was highly anticipated but managed to drop the ball in no time. The first few episodes of the new spin-off series had a few lame tricks and several boring, underdeveloped characters....
