Adult Swim got schwifty for April Fool’s Day as Rick and Morty returned to the channel in a very unexpected way. Becoming something of an annual tradition, creators Dan Harmon and Justin Roiland seem set on surprising fans of the sci-fi cartoon on the most unlikely day of the year. While everyone else is reading stories about Ken Jeong in Indiana Jones 5, Rick and Morty is actually giving its fans real news....
SPOILERS for Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D. ‘The Devil Complex’ ahead The latest Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D. episode may have revealed who really destroyed Earth. We break down our theory about General Hale, Hydra and the Kree. Since the Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D. season 5 premiere, the show has established a major mystery: Who destroyed the Earth? The agents were told by those in the future that Daisy Johnson aka. Quake broke the Earth apart with her powers....
Gone are the days when video games were just a niche in the entertainment industry. In fact, it has even outgained more than the music and the film industry combined these past few years. That only means video games have blown up in popularity as is evident in the number of big triple-A Hollywood stars having roles in them. Moreover, some Hollywood celebrities (like a certain someone whose surname rhymes with “leaves”) recognize the gaming industry as a reputable medium, too....
The are few weapons in science fiction cooler than the lightsaber. A sword made of plasma that can cut through almost anything and makes a cool sound when you swing it around is probably the best thing Star Wars has ever given the imagination of kids all over the world. We’ve all grabbed flashlights or toy lightsabers and acted out pivotal fights from the movies or made up fights of our own....
In its half century of existence, the G.I. Joe has pretty much changed the way that kids play with toys. Hasbro goes so far as to call it “the single greatest brand in the history of boys’ toys." While that may be a bit much on Hasbro’s part, it’s safe to say that G.I. Joe has left a mark on many, with a huge presence in not just toys, but also comics, television, movies, and video games....
To be an Avenger is a true honor. The Avengers are regarded with the utmost respect and rightfully so. They shoulder the entire weight of the world. Seriously, the safety of Earth is regularly dependent on those guys! Created in 1963 by Stan Lee and Jack Kirby, the team originally consisted of Iron Man, Thor, Hulk, Ant-Man, and Wasp. While these were the founding members, the superhero group has become known not only for its call to arms, “Avengers assemble!...
Whether you loved them or hated them, the Twilight movies were a full blown cultural phenomenon from the late 2000s into the early 2010s. The movies were based on the bestselling novels by Stephanie Meyer and chronicled the turbulent romance between the human girl Bella Swan and the vampire heartthrob boy Edward Cullen. They are pretty much solely responsible for the modern teen supernatural romance genre that exists today. The Twilight Saga, along with the Harry Potter movies, firmly established the trend of young adult fantasy big screen adaptations....
It’s probably a bit of a cliche to say that celebrities are just like us, but it’s true. They have to eat, sleep, and do the rest of the stuff that every other person has to do. Unfortunately, that also means that they get sick, and sometimes they get so sick that they can’t work anymore. Although it may seem like acting is an easy job, it actually requires a lot of standing, and often means working long hours....

A brand new report claims that a Solo: A Star Wars Story trailer consisting only of footage shot by Phil Lord and Christopher Miller actually exists. The original directors of the project were booted three weeks before filming was supposed to wrap and then were eventually replaced by Oscar-winning director Ron Howard. The second Star Wars anthology movie, Solo: A Star Wars Story traces back to the galaxy’s most beloved smuggler days as a regular Correlian citizen wanting to find a way to get out of the predicament that he was in....
Despite its third time slot in four seasons, Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D. has once again reshaped its programming just a bit to better service their viewers. The darker tone in season four gave them the chance to bring Robbie Reyes’ Ghost Rider to the Marvel Cinematic Universe, but the focus has now shifted to the evolution of Life Model Decoy’s and the growing hatred for Inhumans. This has manifested into a difficult task for S....
Coulson’s mysterious deal with Ghost Rider will finally be revealed in Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D.’s 100th episode. After a rocky start, S.H.I.E.L.D. has transformed itself into a constantly evolving Marvel property. Even without the big movie tie-ins fans have been hoping for, the show continues to do something new each season. That mindset took the team to space (and the future) in the first part of season 5. When it returns from its brief month-long break, the team will be back on Earth and looking to prevent the end of the world....
The Arrowverse doesn’t always get the respect it deserves but there’s hardly a better example of quantity and consistency in the live-action superhero world. The Marvel Cinematic Universe is the top dog in the genre. However, when it comes to introducing a variety of compelling, diverse and interesting characters (that are both heroes and civilians) the Arrowverse has the MCU beat. Television, particularly good TV, is built around solid characters and that’s something the Arrowverse has done extraordinarily well … for the most part....
Whether they got famous from acting, singing, a sport, a hobby, or something more obscure such as creating a social networking site, there are and have been a great deal of celebrities out there in the world. Furthermore, their interesting stories have been told through several different television shows, books, songs, and films. But which biopics are actually worth watching? Well, we recommend the following 10! They vary in their moods, their settings, and their styles, but they each tell exciting tales about famous people of the past and the present, allowing us to see a whole new side of these stars....
Hulu’s The Handmaid’s Tale features many characters, each with their own complex, interwoven narratives. The longer the series goes on, the further back into each character’s past we go. This serves to further complicate our consideration of the characters in the present and leaves us trying to unravel the reasons behind their behaviors and interactions with one another. Some instances are easier to understand than others, and considering the context of most of the show–living in a dystopian America–some confusing behavior is expected....
The odds of an X-Men/Harry Potter crossover are slim to none, but if Professor X’s cadre of mutant companions were ever to enter the Great Hall at Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry, listen to Dumbledore say, “Nitwit! Blubber! Oddment! Tweak!” and get sorted into their Hogwarts Houses, we’re pretty sure we know which dormitory each character would be sleeping in that night–not to mention who would be Head Boy by the end of his years (ahem, we’re looking at you, Scott)....
We hate to say it, but some day, Hugh Jackman has to hang up his claws and retire. Unlike Wolverine, the Marvel Comics character that the 47-year-old Australian actor famous, the latter continues to age, and despite packing muscle on top of, underneath, and in between muscle for each subsequent appearance in the X-Men franchise, there will come a day when he just can’t keep up with those superpowered X-kids anymore....
The only thing more intense than a Hollywood divorce is a bestie breakup. Maybe it’s the lack of money, kids, and property involved. They don’t hold back when they’ve got nothing lose. Whatever the reason, many stars aren’t afraid to burn a friendship bridge. Losing friends is an unfortunate part of life for everyone. But for celebrity friendships, the feuding parties are losing some of the few people in their lives who genuinely understand the extremely strange and surreal experience that they share: being admired and judged worldwide by people who don’t even know them....
