AAPL has fallen from just under $183 earlier this month, when the company hit a $3 trillion market cap, to $158 today – falling a further 2%+ just this morning … Why AAPL stock continues to fall The large slide in the value of AAPL stock this month has less to do with the company itself, and more to do with macroeconomic factors around the economy as a whole, and the tech sector in particular....

As the years go by, movie fans learn each and every thing there is to know about their favorite films. But sometimes, a single detail or two that could explain plot holes and dangling plot threads is missed. Funny, informative, or downright disturbing, it’s these little known secrets that can forever change the way you see your favorite movies. Here are Screen Rant’s 10 Amazing Details That Completely Change Popular Movies....

For every great comic book superpower, there’s a support team of abilities that at least attempts to explain how people can use their powers without instantly killing themselves. It’s the reason you (almost) never see folks with super strength pulling a muscle because they forgot to lift with the knees. Over the decades, plenty of these secondary superpowers have cropped up to explain away how physics seems to be repeatedly scrunched up and tossed out the window....

10. Penny Pann - ENFJ Even though she’s half of the affair that breaks up the Maisels, Penny Pann isn’t really the one we dislike. In fact, she’s kind of a tragic character. She took a risk in another person and he deserted her. Like other ENFJs, this affects Penny so deeply because she needs people. She doesn’t like being alone, and though her actions weren’t great, they happened because she values Joel as a person....

Despite the presence of some high-profile franchise installments (Resident Evil: The Final Chapter, Underworld: Blood Wars), January kicked off 2017 with a typically slow start. Yet, in a twist befitting one of his own films, M. Night Shyamalan turned out to be the month’s big winner with his horror-thriller Split – which stars James McAvoy as a kidnapper with 23 different personalities – raking in $40 million in its opening weekend, signaling a major comeback for the once-revered filmmaker....

If you haven’t been on social media since December 21st then you may not have heard of Bird Box. However, everyone else in the world has been inundated with memes and references to the Netflix thriller. The film had a record-breaking 45-million views in the first week after its release, making it the most viewed Netflix original to date. If you’re one of the 45-million to have watched the film, there are some details you may have missed....

Despite only running for two seasons initially, David Lynch’s series, Twin Peaks, was an instant cultural phenomenon. Thousands tuned in to find out the truth about Laura Palmer’s murder. The show was one of the first big murder mystery series that also involved mysterious supernatural and occult elements. Nowadays it’s hard to find a show that doesn’t focus on murder in some capacity. The influence of Twin Peaks on pop culture is palpable more than twenty years later....

NOTE: The following post contains MAJOR SPOILERS for Star Wars 7 - Star Wars: The Force Awakensis proving to be a juggernaut at the box office, fulfilling many of the massive expectations that fans had set for it. J.J. Abrams’ film, which begins the sequel trilogy, answered many of the questions that we had about the new Star Wars movies. We learned that Darth Vader has a grandson. We learned where Luke was, and why he was hiding....

The Marvel Cinematic Universe is one impressive accomplishment: a rapidly expanding collection of movies and TV shows which share a unified canon, all telling stories within the same fictional universe. While the actors portraying key roles are typically kept the same, behind the scenes, each movie features a variety of different writers, directors, designers and other filmmakers, all of whom are doing their best to maintain a cohesive overarching story....

Unless you’ve been living under a rock for the past few years, it’s highly likely that you’ve heard of The Avengers and The Justice League, those all-star team-ups where superheroes get together and fight the battles they couldn’t win alone have resulted in some amazing stories. The concept of the superhero team is almost as old as the superhero himself. Not long after Superman and Batman came the Justice Society of America, the first high-profile superhero team....

Debuting back in 1963 within the pages of X-Men #1, mutants have remained a staple of the Marvel Universe in the pages of the comics. While the MCU may be prohibited from using the term (and the majority of mutant characters), the species continues to play a prominent role in the comic book world. Since their introduction, writers have used the group to examine all variety of social prejudices and injustices....

There are certain rites of passage that any superhero worth their salt must go through. Death and subsequent resurrection is one of the most common, but being stripped down to the level of a mere mortal is another. The chances are that if a character has superpowers, they’ve been taken away at some point. This usually follows with a story of redemption as our heroes are forced to adapt and use their cunning to survive until they get their powers back, reaffirming the heroic characteristics that made us like them in the first place....

It’s no hyperbole to say that the Marvel Cinematic Universe has completely reinvented the movie industry. Not only have these simple comic book stories turned into some of the most popular and profitable movies of all time, but they’ve also redefined what a comic book movie can be. There’s no longer a stigma that superhero movies are lesser art than “real movies.” This is an age where something like Logan can receive an Academy Award nomination for Best Adapted Screenplay....

From the very first moment that Jon Snow met Ygritte on Game of Thrones, sparks started to fly, and apparently, things went pretty much the same for the actors who played them in real life, Kit Harington and Rose Leslie. However, just like their fictional counterparts, they had their ups and downs as a couple. Jon captured Ygritte, Ygritte captured Jon, she made fun of him a lot, they fell in love, they had some fun in a cave, they fought against each other, and he held her in his arms as she took her last breath....

Spider-Man, The Dark Knight, Iron Man, The Incredible Hulk. Those are all superhero movies that came out in the first decade of the new millennium. We bet you know them pretty well. Same goes for Watchmen, The Incredibles, Hellboy, and the X-Men franchise. We’re even willing to bet you remember many of the less-successful cinematic superhero adventures, like Constantine, Elektra, and Blade: Trinity. Good or bad, each of them kept the craze alive and kicking....

With the release of Infinity War, fans everywhere find themselves more excited than ever to enter the world of the Marvel Cinematic Universe and watch our favorite heroes take on the biggest threat of them all, Thanos. The Avengers are in for a real fight, since Thanos is one heck of a threat… or is he? The superheroes of the Marvel Cinematic Universe can be underpowered compared to other superheroes. This isn’t a knock on Captain America or Iron Man or the rest, but they don’t compare characters from other franchises/properties....

A sitcom is short for Situational Comedy. So if there aren’t any situations to be laughed at and poke fun at, then there aren’t any sitcoms to be had. Some of the funniest sitcoms have some of the most ridiculous situations to deal with. The writer’s room on TV shows are also filled with a lot of zany and creative people. After all, they’re the ones coming up a lot of these storylines....
