Ever since the Marvel Cinematic Universe kicked into full swing over 10 years ago, fans have seen the connecting threads throughout the 20 plus films and tried to connect the dots with their own fan theories. There are literally thousands of theories and ideas out there, with some of them being well thought out hypotheses, and others being down right crazy babble. Most of them, however, fall in the middle. These theories are given a lot of thought, and sometimes make a point or two, but they tend to miss the mark by overlooking or ignoring key elements. This current…

When Disney set their sights on acquiring Fox Media, fans around the world were divided.

But, after Disney CEO, Bob Iger, confirmed that Disney wouldn’t shy away from the R-Rated material, fans started to get excited. And now, and new rumor about Alien has surfaced that may take fans over the top. According to HN…

Crossover events are fairly commonplace in comic books. Mostly, they happen within a single publishing company’s universe, but sometimes we’re treated to dream crossovers with characters from different publishers.

This pairing has happened a few times, with different versions of each character, giving fans some unique stories. Now, it looks like the highly successful DC Comics Animation people have decided to bring this quirky team up to life in Batman vs. the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles. The Caped Crusader hangs with the Heroes in a Half Shell…

The remake of Stephen King’s classic, IT, brought the clown demon horror pic to a modern audience, and reinforced a world’s fear of clowns in general. It was terrifying, to say the least. Now, as the sequel, IT: Chapter 2, is in post production, you’d be hard pressed not to think that Pennywise will be stepping it up a notch against the adult versions of the Loser’s Club. But, how long exactly will it take? According to an anonymous source, it my be one of the longest horror movies yet. IT: CHAPTER 2 is almost three hours long. Pretty good but…

As the Marvel Cinematic Universe brings a close to their first decade of films with the April release of Avengers: Endgame, the future of the MCU is not 100% clear. What we do know is that it shows no signs of slowing down, and we even have an idea of a few projects to help shape said future. With sequels to the hit films Dr. Strange and Black Panther having been announced, as well as a solo Black Widow movie, and Spider-Man: Far From Home kicking it all off, we know of established characters taking the torch forward. But what…

In every film genre, there are a handful of movies that are strange and unique, moreso than others. They stand on their own, and often aren’t particularly well received at first. They do tend to grow into cult favorites, however, and the 1984 David Lynch adaptation, Dune, is one of those films. Lynch, an untraditional filmmaker in his own right, made some weird choices bringing the Frank Herbert epic novel to life. Lynch brought music icon Sting in for his first ever acting role (and he was supposed to be fully nude in the film, before producers stepped in), some…

It is a strange time we live in as a nation. Whilst so many people of smaller groups are gaining their voice and standing up for themselves, pushing for equality, there is also a growing amount of resistance. To go along with that, there are people who are taking things too far, getting offended by which way the wind blows, and are making the rest of the people fighting for equality look just as bad as them. It’s a vicious cycle of verbal war. To top that off, people are attacking other people for the actions of those they are…

There’s been a consistent string of fan theories and rumors that the surviving heroes in Avengers: Endgame will be taking a trip through the Quantum Realm to time travel and stop Thanos before he gets the Infinity Stones. Taking what all information is out there, like Kevin Feige proclaiming the importance of the Quantum Realm, the end credits scene in Ant-Man and The Wasp, the BTS photo leaks from the film, and the hidden city in the Realm, it seems easy to make this assumption. Well, the latest toy leaks have added to that speculation, and now we have our…
