James Wan’s The Conjuring was a surprisingly solid summer scare back in 2013. Now, four years later, here we are with sequels, spin offs, and more the horizon.

Godzilla vs. Kong’s tone will be similar to Kong: Skull Island, according to Jordan Vogt-Roberts
This is either going to be the best, or worst news you hear all day depending on where you stand with Kong: Skull Island. There seems to be two trains of thought here: 1) Kong: Skull Island is a refreshing change of course from the darker Godzilla reboot, or 2) the latest Kong sacrificed the […]

The comic book crowd is not always the most easy to please.
