It’s become an unwritten rule that with success comes sequels. Any hit film is likely to, if not planned from the beginning, receive some type of continuation in the form of a sequel, whether it be in high demand or met with collective groans upon announcement. Studios will always want to revisit what sells, sometimes creating massively successful franchises, other times failing entirely to capture the creative spark of the original....

The writers of Spider-Man: No Way Home have confirmed that the film’s director directed that post-credit scene from Venom: Let There Be Carnage. In the widely talked about scene, Eddie Brock (Tom Hardy) makes his way into the Marvel Cinematic Universe, and it was clear that there are some big plans ahead for the character.

Wednesday fans are still rejoicing at the official announcement of a second season being green-lit by Netflix after being a guaranteed thing for over a month. In the meantime, Jenna Ortega’s character has added another accolade to the staggering amount of plaudits that have been bestowed on the Tim Burton series. This time around, it is the character of Wednesday herself that has taken the title of Top TV Character of 2022 in a survey by TV Time, seeing off competition from the likes of Stranger Things’ Eleven, and Marvel’s Moon Knight....
A universe is rarely born as it is a complex creation with several movable parts that must be pulled together into one congealed masterpiece. However, 2013 marked the coming together of a new universe in the realm of horror. The Conjuring and subsequent movies in the same universe have been so successful that some have been led to ponder the secret of the franchise’s success. The Conjuring Universe is predicated on the lives of two avid paranormal investigators tied together by supernatural and matrimonial cords....
Who would have thought that after all the media frenzy and promotional hype surrounding the most talked about DC superhero flick for almost the last ten years, Black Adam would flounder upon initial release? Not only that but there was a second strike at bat when Dwayne Johnson was ripped away from the throne he wished for so long when James Gunn and Peter Safran were instead officially elected as the new DCU Studio bosses....
As Disney’s pursuit to make live-action iterations of all their animated classics continues, the latest film the studio has its sights set on is 1997’s Hercules. The light-hearted re-imagining of Greek mythology might not have the same level of acclaim and nostalgia around it as, say Beauty and the Beast or Mulan, but it is a film that has tremendous potential in a live-action remake. With big-budget superhero flicks dominating the multiplexes, Hercules is the closest that Disney animation has come to making a straight-forward action fantasy film....
Doctor Doom is the most famous villain in all of Marvel Comics, and with the film rights to The Fantastic Four being acquired by Disney in the purchase of 20th Century Fox, the question is not if Doctor Doom will join the MCU but when. Created by Stan Lee and Jack Kirby in Fantastic Four #5 back in 1962, Doctor Doom is the arch enemy of The Fantastic Four. Born Victor Von Doom in the nation of Latveria, the character has become the ruler of the country and is a master of science and magic....
In the Game of Thrones universe, it is often the supplemental characters that prove to have the biggest impact on storylines. Though the first season seems to suggest that the series will have a somewhat narrow scope than its predecessor, House of the Dragon has already introduced audiences to a slew of side characters that will have a considerable impact on the future of Westeros. Larys Strong, for example, is an unassuming lurker whose physical disability keeps him from being an imposing physical threat but has already proven to be a master of espionage, as well as a ruthless plotter, and Ser Criston Cole, a lowborn soldier who rose to be a prominent member of the Kingsguard, will kill enemies of Queen Alicent seemingly at a moment’s notice....
In the fourth episode of the Disney+ Ms. Marvel series, Kamala Khan’s (played by Pakistani-Canadian Iman Vellani) grandmother talks about how her roots belong to both Pakistan and India. However, her identity has been fragmented by the colonial powers that exploited her people for almost two centuries. Many, including the current generations of both these countries, do not realise how similar and overlapping desi cultures are, all in their glory and flaws....
The MCU has reigned supreme over the Hollywood world for nearly 15 years now and has zero plans of slowing down any time soon (they have as many future projects planned as they have completed past projects). They revolutionized the process of turning solo-movie success into multi-platform entertainment experiences and have given on-screen birth to hundreds of Marvel’s coveted superheroes (and villains) in the process. However, one hero has yet to show his presence in the MCU, but it’s high time (or should we say ‘high tide’) that said hero makes a big splash in the Marvel Cinematic Universe....
Spoiler Warning: In the Dark Seasons 1-3 In October 2021, we saw the season 3 finale of In The Dark. Now, six months later, we couldn’t help but wonder when and even if we can expect to see the fourth season of our beloved show. Thankfully, The CW did confirm back on Feb. 3, 2022, that the show has been officially renewed for season 4. We were left with many storylines in the season 3 finale, which we need answers to in the upcoming season....
Earlier this year, a photo of The Good Fight actress Christine Baranski seemingly aiming daggers in Elon Musk’s direction at the 2022 Met Gala went viral. Easy to surmise considering the actress is a natural when it comes to sarcastic wit whether her use of lines or expression. Consider her recurring role in The Big Bang Theory as Leonard’s maternally lacking mom Dr. Beverly Hofstadter. However, in a recent interview with Entertainment Weekly, Baranski said she didn’t glare at the billionaire intentionally, adding that she couldn’t remember when the viral moment occurred and spent a separate part of the evening “dissing him....
The Ice Age Adventures of Buck Wild is a dreadfully humorless installment in a CGI franchise that’s long run its course. The sixth Ice Age sequel has goofball possum brothers Crash and Eddie, both voiced by Vincent Tong, striking out on their own. Hijinks predictably ensue, but they’re not funny or interesting in any way. The film has a villain with a hideous, brain-bulging cranium that freaked me out. And introduces a weird zorilla, you read that right, that farts sleeping gas....
The idea of a home invasion is undeniably terrifying and — unfortunately — a real thing that some people have experienced. Because of this, a home invasion plot makes for a great movie, because it instills genuine fear in the audience, and because it’s a real thing that could happen. Some home invasion movies take a lot of creative liberties and create scenarios that seem far from reality. On the other hand, though, there are some that are so realistic that they’re almost hard to watch....
