World Wrestling Entertainment is is a bit of a unique situation that they haven’t really seen in 20 years. WWE actually has some major competition in All Elite Wrestling. So, how do you combat stiff competition? Why, you hire the man who nearly toppled you two decades ago as a creative director, that’s how! Or is it? It would seem that the Eric Bischoff experiment has run it’s very short course. WWE has announced that Bischoff, who was made Creative Director of Smackdown back in June is no longer with the company. No other information has been given yet on…

The Disney/Fox merger seemed like such a sweet deal for fans. Now, Marvel Studios would have full access to characters like the X-Men and Fantastic Four and be able to give them the proper Marvel Cinematic Universe treatment. But, there is one character that people didn’t want to see changed, even though he may not exactly fit in the MCU mold. That character is, of course, Deadpool. Even with the roller coaster ride that was the X-Men films, Deadpool got the character right and made a killing at the box office. But, his foul mouthed, 4th wall breaking ways aren’t…

Professional Wrestling is at the cusp of a brand new renaissance. Thanks to Cody Rhodes, Kenny Omega, and the Young Bucks, along with billionaire Tony Kahn, a whole new type of sports entertainment is hitting the airwaves in the form of All Elite Wrestling. Grabbing tons of talent from the indy scene, as well as former WWE talent, AEW is already taking the world by storm. One of their biggest acquisitions is Jon Moxley, formerly Dean Ambrose in WWE. ScreenGeek got the chance to sit down with him at a NYCC roundtable and get his take on things. What will…

Doug Liman has had a prolific career in Hollywood. After the breakout success of Swingers, Liman has gone on to direct films such as Mr. & Mrs. Smith, The Bourne Identity, Jumper, and Edge of Tomorrow, among others. In regards to the last film, the Tom Cruise/Emily Blunt sci fi version of Groundhog’s Day was a slow build of a hit, but has become a bit of a cult classic. Now, rumors have circulated about Edge of Tomorrow 2, so I asked the man himself during an interview at NYCC for the second season of Impulse, his YouTube Premium show…

The Disney/Fox merger has been, for the most part, a thing of beauty for fans worldwide. With Marvel Studios finally getting back the rights to the X-Men and the Fantastic Four, along with all the supporting characters, people feel that we will finally get the proper treatment of some of comic’s most iconic characters. The downside has been the purgatory that some projects have fallen into. New Mutants is completed, but seems to be in limbo as far as if and when it will be released. Projects like James Franco’s Multiple Man movie are seemingly dead in the water. One…

Ever since the Disney/Fox merger, fans have been clamoring for the X-Men and the Fantastic Four to enter the Marvel Cinematic Universe. These characters had not been treated fairly by Fox, and people couldn’t be more excited to see how Kevin Feige interprets them. There is one character, though, that Fox nailed perfectly, and many fans fear what will happen when he gets the ‘Disney treatment’. I’m talking, of course, of the foul mouthed, 4th wall breaking, Deadpool. However, Disney CEO, Bob Iger, has said that Deadpool will not be changed at all. Apparently, the Deadpool writers aren’t 100% sure…

Sometimes, in life, everything falls into place for a fantastic joke. A lot of these things are planned and staged, like ‘Candid Camera’ or other prank shows. Some times, these things are completely unintentional and just occur by happenstance. Now, these jokes, often times, end up a bit on the dark side. It’s kind of like how we all watch those ‘fail compilation’ videos on YouTube. It’s been going on forever that humans love to see others fall or have a moment of cringe. That’s exactly what Spider-Man fans are getting with a new, seemingly innocent greeting card. A Twitter…

The cinematic world of DC has been in a bit of a flux ever since Zack Synder left/was dismissed from Justice League. Ever since, WB has been trying to take their films in a different, more light hearted direction, as well as loosening up on their connected universe for a more free form, individualized story in each film. They also went out and picked up one of the best comic book movie directors in James Gunn. After Gunn was fired (before being rehired months later) by Disney, WB signed him to redo their successful yet maligned Suicide Squad. Now, we’re…

Everyone knows the leading man or woman in a film. These actors get all of the limelight and spectacle of the press as a movie gets promoted. But, their performances hinge not only on their own talent, but on the talent of their supporting cast. Mainly, those character actors who add depth and substance to the film’s core. However, these character actors typically are unsung heroes, getting little to no acknowledgement for what they bring to a film. There are some, though, that stand out from the rest, and niche out their own fan base. Robert Forster is one of…

We are living in the best time to be a nerd in this world, as we are in the Age Of Superheroes. The Marvel Cinematic Universe has dominated the box office for over a decade, DC started on a rocky foot but has really shined as of late, and it would seem that everyone is trying to get on the superpowered bandwagon. It is such a movement that there are even detractors of very high stature, with some acclaimed filmmakers feeling the need to try and belittle their accomplishments. However, most of what we have seen has involved the two…
