Star Wars is back and bigger than ever. Just over 4 years ago, no one was predicting that the fan favorite franchise was on the verge of releasing more movies. Now we have a box office shattering Episode VII under our belts, the franchise is branching out with the first ever spin-off movie in Rogue One, and there’s also dozens of additional books and comics that round out the massive story of this shared universe....

Do you like to be confused and disturbed but utterly intrigued? Then you have come to the right list. Dystopian stories often serve its audience as a critic of our reality. These stories often explore technology, but they also come up with ideas such as “what if everyone just could no longer have children?” or “what if there was a nuclear apocalypse?” They are stories that both capture the imagination but also teach harsh lessons about what humanity is capable of....

Vegas Rat Rods is not a show that should have worked. There are so many other car shows on several networks. Yet, somehow, Vegas Rat Rods has won the hearts of millions of viewers and is entering it’s fourth season. The show follows Steve Darnell and his crew at Welder Up, a customization car shop. In each and every episode, they push the limits of human ingenuity to create some of the most unique vehicles you’ll ever lay your eyes on....

Superheroes are basically gods living amongst the humans, the Injustice video game series pretty much proves that. However, despite all the Superman/Jesus symbolism, there are tons of caped crusaders with bona fide gods and goddesses hanging out in their family trees. This certainly explains the heavy prevalence of so many real-world mythologies in these comic book franchises. Some heroes are created and molded by the hands of the gods, while others can claim deities as their actual parents....

Aquaman was finally introduced in Justice League, and his debut made a huge splash. Fans loved the DCEU’s portrayal of the iconic aquatic superhero and they simply couldn’t get enough of “their man.” The muscular, long-haired underwater protagonist wooed audiences all over the world, and therefore, Warner Bros. decided to give him his own movie. Aquaman is set to release at the end of this year and will specifically focus on Arthur Curry’s origin story....

A long time ago in a galaxy far, far way… die-hard Star Wars fans dreamt up the wildest theories. However, like a interesting plot twist many of these theories came true. The Star Wars franchise has one of the most loyal fan bases, so fans have spent years coming up with the most outlandish fan theories. Well, it turns out they’re not so outlandish after all. The Star Wars universe includes movies, TV series and other merchandise....

Will Smith and Jada Pinkett-Smith are among the most successful celebrity couples. Their marriage, which has lasted more than 20 years, is also one of the longest among current Hollywood marriages. They have shown a strong commitment to making their marriage work and they have made it clear that they are in it for the long-term. However, probably because of the fact that other celebrity couples appear to treat their wedding vows flippantly, Will and Jada’s determination to stay together has caused speculation and rumor-mongering....

Frozen has earned its place in the Disney Hall of Fame, with the 2013 film having maintained its popularity among children and adults since its release. Since the first time they heard “Let It Go” and “Do You Want To Build A Snowman,” fans were hooked, and the film’s ability to portray Disney Princesses in a much different way has set them apart from other films. Characters like Elsa and Anna are much different than what fans were used to seeing from Disney, and it was a breath of fresh air....

Deadpool 2 comes out this month and as the trailers proved, there are a lot of new mutants showing up as the Merc with a Mouth forms his own version of X-Force. Based on the trailer alone, Deadpool 2 will introduce the movie world to Cable, Domino, Bedlam, Shatterstar and Zeitgeist. Also, don’t be surprised to see any number of other mutants show up in smaller cameo roles. That is something Fox has enjoyed doing since they first started releasing X-Men movies way back in 2000....

There is tragic news in Hollywood, as Veronica Mars actor Brad Bufanda has sadly taken his own life at just age 34. Best-known as Felix Toombs in the first two seasons of the Kristen Bell-lead teen drama, Bufanda may not have returned for the Veronica Mars movie, but has other screen credits which include CSI: Miami and Days of our Lives. Details are still emerging about the incident, but Bufanda’s representative Kirsten Solem confirmed the news via THR:...

WARNING: Spoilers for last week’s Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D. - The most recent episode of Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D. was packed full of shocking moments, but the big Yo-Yo twist is actually a nod to her comic book origin. The current fifth season may be the last for Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D., but it’s making sure to go out on a bang. Time travel and a post-apocalyptic future in space have already occupied the first part of the season, and the series is bringing back a number of elements from its past....

It’s not the ’60s any more, the era when heroes were heroes and the bad guys were all insultingly, obviously evil. Anti-heroes have come and gone, characters have switched sides and no longer do comic books set the behavior standards for children across the world. These ten might be superheroes, out there risking their lives for the greater good…but they’re also here to prove that justice isn’t soft. In fact, they can sometimes be jerks about it....

One of the most beloved science fiction IP’s of all time, Star Trek and its many spin-off series have built up one of the most popular franchises in television history. After Star Trek originally aired in the ‘60s, several films were made to varying success, but it wasn’t until the end of the ‘80s that Trekkies would get to see a new fresh take on Starfleet and bold space exploration that would revive the fandom....

Over the years, fans of superhero movies have grown accustomed to the fact that the genre typically brings in a lot of money for studios, which justifies their big budgets, shared universes, and A-list actors. Looking back, one simply has to look at Disney’s Marvel Cinematic Universe, Warner’s DC Extended Universe, or Fox’s very successful run with the X-Men – all incredibly successful franchises that made billions of dollars and topped the box office around the world....

With the recent announcement that Taika Waititi will be returning to direct Thor 4, the internet is buzzing at the prospect of the continuation of this fantastic story. The previous Thor film was a reinvention for the character, with Chris Hemsworth becoming an MVP of the Marvel Cinematic Universe. A new film therefore means a new cast of characters, although we are hoping for the return of the likes of Miek and Korg....

The Marvel Cinematic Universe has brought together a wide array of talented actors. Some of them– like Robert Downey, Jr., Scarlett Johansson, and Paul Rudd– were already A-list stars when they signed on to play beloved comic book heroes. Others– such as Chris Hemsworth, Chadwick Boseman, and Tom Hiddleston– saw their careers skyrocket as a result of their participation. What’s particularly impressive is how much care Marvel Studios has put into selecting just the right performers for each role....

Look, Marvel…we get it. You’re pioneering the concept of a truly shared universe, and you want to be careful. Heck, there hasn’t even been that much crossover potential thus far, and what we have gotten has at least served to show that they are in the same plane of existence. But you might have misunderstood our intentions. No, we don’t want Infinity War to be retitled The Defender-Vengers feat. Agent Carter and the Spectacular Agents of S....
