Black Mirror, originally airing on the UK Channel 4 and later picked up by Netflix, has been regarded my many as the modern Twilight Zone.

Patty Jenkins braced herself for a critical backlash prior to Wonder Woman’s release
The comic book crowd is not always the most easy to please. When creating an adaptation of a beloved comic book franchise, one is going up against — potentially — decades of history to be compared with.

Cancelled Justice League Mortal film would have featured a fight between Wonder Woman and Superman
Remember that Justice League movie that was announced way way back in 2007 with George Miller (Mad Max: Fury Road) at the helm? It was the film that had everyone confused at the time: would Christian Bale be Batman? Wait, it’s another Batman? Who is this Armie Hammer fellow (this was before he blew everyone […]
Stephen King was “not prepared” for how good the new It is
Early reviews have had high praise for the big screen adaptation of Stephen King’s It, with some are calling it the best Stephen King adaptation in a long time.

Before Wonder Woman released this summer, we were hit with a steady flurry of rumours that the film was a mess. Many people simply expected the film to fail. The movie, after all, had a huge hurdle to leap. Man of Steel was just A-Okay with critics (though this writer will defend it to the […]

If you have ever spent longer than an hour on the internet, chances are you have caught wind of a number of theories regarding Game of Thrones. Theories are absolutely nothing new to to the story.

We haven’t seen the last of Gendry on Game of Thrones, according to Ser Davos actor Liam Cunningham
It was a delightful surprise — in Game of Thrones’ seventh season — to find out that Gendry (played by Joe Dempsie), bastard to the late-King Robert Baratheon, was hiding out in King’s Landing this entire time.

Rumour: The Joker origin movie will be “super dark” and “real”
A week ago we were treated to the news that Martin Scorsese is producing a Todd Phillips (The Hangover) directed Joker movie.

The Punisher might introduce another Marvel hero
We just received our first-look at The Punisher in the form of a brief teaser, but beyond that, we are actually fairly in the dark. We don’t know the specifics of the The Punisher’s plot, aside from knowing that it will be very violent, and will not go out of its way to portray Frank […]
