Marvel Studios pulled off the unprecedented with the astronomically successful interwoven connected set of films that are the Marvel Cinematic Universe. With over a decade of filmmaking and two dozen films, the MCU created a cultural change in Hollywood, causing several studios to at least consider their own cinematic universes. During the first three phases, dubbed The Infinity Saga, each film stood on their own, but with an interconnected underlying threat, the Infinity Stones. And, those stones seemingly met their demise at the end of it all. But, theories abound have suggested they could and/or will return. Now, Disney has…

There are many sites out there where fans can rate their favorite films. The everyday person go on and rank the best movie, based on their own likes and dislikes. One of the most fervent fanbases is, without a doubt, the Marvel Cinematic Universe fans. Some people go to Rotten Tomatoes when looking for films to watch, but others believe that IMDb is a more solid ranking system, because it takes into account users and not only critics. So, with that being said, let’s take a look at the Top 10 MCU movies on IMDb, based on fan votes. 10.…

Fan theories are something we have seen and covered in droves. While most of these theories are far fetched and downright insane, some actually have some credence and a possibility to be true. However, this latest one falls under the first category. Fans tend to find any little notion to cling to when their favorite character is done, especially in the Marvel Cinematic Universe. In this case, Captain America. At the end of Avengers: Endgame, Steve Rogers got his happy ending, going back in time to live with Peggy Carter, have a family, and grow old. But, what if he…

Cancel Culture is at it again. In a world where everyone is offended by everything and society has to walk on eggshells or face the wraith of the keyboard warriors on social media, another film is under attack. This time, it’s a film that was actually a big hit, but touched on a ‘sensitive subject’. I’m talking about the current #GetSplitOffNetflix movement. Now, while it is technically trending on Twitter, it’s only really making traction more in Europe. That’s because Split isn’t on the U.S. version of Netflix. So why is this film being attacked? For those who haven’t seen…

A retired porn star is being charged with multiple sex crimes. Doesn’t seem like a very shocking statement, especially nowadays. More and more predators are being called out and charged in sex crimes in Hollywood. Danny Masterson has been charged with multiple sexual assaults. ‘Extraction’ producer, David Guillod is charged with 11 counts, including rape and kidnapping. Now, former porn star and reality star, Ron Jeremy, is charged with sexual abuse of 4 women. According to Fox News, The Los Angeles County District Attorney announced Tuesday that the Ron Jeremy has been charged with forcibly raping three women and sexually…

If you were born in the 80’s or before, you most certainly remember the eerie theme song of a crime docu-series that came on, scaring us all with Unsolved Mysteries. Children went to bed thinking that the criminal was outside their window, or the aliens would abduct them in the night. Adults didn’t fare much better, but no one could seemingly look away. The show was compelling, telling the stories of cold cases and unexplainable events, hoping that the national attention would help bring new evidence or new witnesses forward. Hosted but the late Robert Stack, the show ran throughout…

The world has been put on pause with the global pandemic forcing everyone to quarantine and closing down theaters, film productions, etc. Because of this, fans have been on an extended hold waiting for the start of Marvel Cinematic Universe’s Phase 4 with the solo Black Widow film. The prequel movie, set between Captain America: Civil War and Avengers: Infinity War, has Natasha Romanoff returning to her roots, and taking care of some ‘family business’. But, while she is taking on the Taskmaster and rectifying a chapter of her life, what are the other Avengers up to? Looking at the…

The Horror Movie Genre is having a true renaissance. More and more of these films have gone away with tired troupes and campy/hacky b.s. to make way for legitimate stories, deeper character development, and better scares. Between unique films like Get Out and Us, to successful reboots like IT and IT 2. Another great horror film is the sequel in Halloween. Retconning all but the first two films in the franchise, Halloween made a huge splash at the box office. And, it was quickly announced that Blumhouse Productions greenlit to more sequels. The first, Halloween Kills is meant for release…

The Guardians of the Galaxy have had one hell of a journey, both on and off the silver screen. As the characters have dealt with loss and death throughout their heroic victories, behind the scenes has been nearly just as tumultuous. Writer/Director, James Gunn, was fired by Disney before production of the third film was to begin, based off of tweets that were over a decade old. However, after taking over the sequel/soft reboot of The Suicide Squad for DC, Disney rehired Gunn and brought him back to the Marvel Cinematic Universe to complete his trilogy. But, as the MCU’s…

The #SpeakOut Movement, a seemingly second wave of the #MeToo Movement, has alleged victims of sexual misconduct, assault, and rape, calling out their aggressors on social media. Several celebrities from comedian Chris D’Elia to a plethora of wrestlers have been named as predators by these victims. Another name to add to that list is Baby Driver actor, Ansel Elgort. However, Elgort has come forward to deny these allegations, whilst taking responsibility for the relationship. This falls in line with some of the other accused, like WWE’s Matt Riddle, who has offered up counter evidence that his accuser is actually lying.…
