If there’s one family that is an integral part of the Dragon Ball world and franchise, it’s the Briefs - and not just because they’re one of the only families that actually has a surname. Without the Brief family, there would be no Capsule Corp., and without Capsule Corp., the world of Dragon Ball would be without its greatest technological advancements. But Capsules aren’t the only contribution the Briefs have made to the Dragon Ball franchise....

Dragon Ball is a series that has characters who are constantly growing in power and ability. New techniques serve as benchmarks for the ever changing power rankings, and sometimes the characters turn to alternative means to keep up. Fusions can happen several ways in Dragon Ball, but all of them serve the same purpose – to combine two characters in order to make an even stronger one. There are three types of fusions....

Eliza Dushku, known for her roles on shows such as Buffy the Vampire Slayer and Tru Calling, has been awarded a settlement of $9.5 million from CBS following a series of incidences of sexual misconduct on the set of the drama series Bull. The comments in question came from her co-star Michael Weatherly, who stars as the eponymous Jason Bull, a psychologist who operates a jury consulting firm. This sadly isn’t Dushku’s only foray into the #MeToo movement....

With the release of Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find Them only weeks away, the publicity surrounding the film continues to build. While the film is likely to do well among those who remain die hard Harry Potter fans, it’ll still need to draw a wider audience if it’s to be successful; not to mention the fact that Fantastic Beasts forms the first movie in a trilogy, so Warner Bros. Pictures is hoping this movie gets off to a good start at the box office....

Tom Hardy has revealed his first photo as Al Capone in Fonzo, the upcoming biopic about the notorious Chicago gangster. Hardy has been one of the busiest actors in Hollywood since his Oscar-nominated best supporting actor turn in 2015’s The Revenant, taking on not only Ridley Scott’s acclaimed TV series Taboo on FX, but a pivotal role in frequent collaborator Christopher Nolan’s Best Picture Oscar-nominated World War II epic Dunkirk and the titular role in Sony’s upcoming Marvel villain tale Venom....

Although Forgotton Anne takes place in a world that is populated with literal forgotten objects, the game is an undeniably memorable adventure that’s hard to shake. Forgotton Anne was developed by ThroughLine Games and published by Square Enix Collective, and originally released in May 2018 on PC, PlayStation 4, and Xbox One. The game has just released on the Nintendo Switch in the console-handheld hybrid’s seemingly never-ending parade of ports....

Producer Andrew Form is committed to working on a new Friday The 13th. Friday The 13th began life as a low budget shocker from producer Sean S. Cunningham, who was inspired by the surprise success of 1978’s Halloween. The original movie featured teen camp counsellors being bumped off one by one by an unseen killer, who is revealed in the finale to be Pamela Voorhees, the vengeful mother of Jason, who drowned in the lake years before....

The new trailer for Godzilla: King of the Monsters is here, and it features a very different soundtrack than its predecessor. Back in 2014, the franchise formally known as the MonsterVerse was launched with Gareth Edwards’ Godzilla reboot. That film proved to be quite successful, grossing $529 million worldwide against a $160 million budget. As such, Warner Bros. decided to move forward with future installments, building up to the epic Godzilla vs....

Millie Bobby Brown was cast in Godzilla: King of the Monsters before she was even officially offered the role. Brown was launched into the spotlight after she appeared on the hit Netflix show Stranger Things in 2016 as the character Eleven. Now, Brown’s next big role is the character Madison Russell in the follow-up film to Gareth Edwards’ 2014 Godzilla. Godzilla: King of the Monsters will feature several giant Kaiju, known as Titans, but the only ones confirmed so far are Mothra, King Ghidorah, Rodan, and of course, Godzilla....

James Gunn has an idea for a Guardians of the Galaxy spin-off centered on Drax and Mantis, and it reportedly isn’t completely off the table. Drax (Dave Bautista) was introduced to audiences back in 2014’s Guardians of the Galaxy and became something of a fan favorite thanks to his dry humor and tendency to take everything literally. Meanwhile, empath Mantis (Pom Klementieff) entered the picture in the 2017 sequel. While her relationship with Drax didn’t have a great start, they later forged a sweet bond after Drax decided Mantis reminded him of his late daughter....

Apple had a busy year in 2021, announcing the iPhone 13 lineup, new Apple Silicon-powered Macs, and more. Looking ahead to 2022, there’s still a lot to expect from the company. In the latest edition of his Power On newsletter, Bloomberg’s Mark Gurman breaks down everything he expects Apple to unveil in the new year. In today’s newsletter, Gurman corroborates much of what has previously been reported about what to expect from Apple in 2022....

Microsoft kicked off its Xbox E3 2018 presentation in spectacular fashion, showcasing Halo Infinite, the next game in the Halo franchise. A return to Halo is something that Xbox players have long been calling for, with the series acting as the mainstay of the Xbox brand for many. Although Microsoft had previously confirmed that further games in the Halo series were coming, the company and developer 343 Industries had remained coy about exactly when the game was going to arrive....

The first teaser for the upcoming young Han Solo spinoff movie is reportedly edited, and the film’s official title should be revealed in the near future. For fans of the galaxy far, far away, the top priority is undoubtedly The Last Jedi, as viewers continue to analyze the full theatrical trailer and purchase their tickets for opening night. And while Lucasfilm’s marketing department is concentrating fully on Episode VIII, the studio as a whole continues to plug away at Han Solo, which is still in the midst of production....

The Ninth Doctor was also the first to many. He entered the rebooted world of Doctor Who decked out in a leather jacket that was just a little too big, wielding a defensive, slightly sarcastic attitude as he took Rose Tyler on a trip through time and space. He only remained part of the show for one season, but that one season was enough to reinvent Doctor Who and re-establish family drama on television....

Jodie Whittaker’s Thirteenth Doctor has driven Doctor Who to its highest ratings since 2010. Doctor Who season 11 proved to be a time of great change for the long-running science fiction series. Not only did Whittaker replace Peter Capaldi as the Doctor, becoming the show’s first female lead in the process, but Chris Chibnall also replaced Steven Moffat as showrunner, bringing an entirely fresh approach to the franchise and a new group of companions along with him....

The English dub of Dragon Ball Super: Broly will release in January 2019, giving fans plenty of time to break down the scenes presented in the ads. The upcoming anime film will be a canonical retelling of Dragon Ball Z: Broly - The Legendary Super Saiyan....

There is perhaps no other major animation studio in Hollywood that has been more successful than Pixar in establishing its brand name and cast of original characters than DreamWorks Animation. Starting with Shrek at the turn of the twenty-first century, DreamWorks has consistently worked hard to get itself to where it is today, all while under the leadership of CEO and co-founder Jeffrey Katzenberg. Over the years, Katzenberg and company have developed lucrative and well-liked franchise properties such as Madagascar, Kung Fu Panda, and How to Train Your Dragon to great success on both the big and the small screen....

Epic Games has announced that it plans to appeal the judge’s decision from today’s Epic v. Apple case. Although today’s ruling says that Apple must relax rules around In-App Purchase and allow apps to link out to third-party payment systems, the judge ruled in Apple’s favor on all other counts. For instance, Apple was not shown to have a monopoly nor must be compelled to allow third-party app stores or alternative third-party payment systems inside the app itself, as Epic had hoped....

Marvel’s street-level superhero shows on Netflix have been a smash hit for the streaming service. Four series were announced back in 2013 that would then culminate in the event series of Marvel’s Defenders which is due sometime later this year. Before we get that team-up series, however, the final Defender still needs his introduction in Iron Fist. The series is due to hit Netflix but has already taken a battering from critics who have reviewed the first half of the season....

Frozen was released in November of 2013 and soon became the most loved, successful animated Disney musical in years, certainly since the studio’s “golden age” of the early ‘90s. It won Oscars for Best Animated Feature and Best Original Song, it spawned a successful soundtrack, a short film sequel, and even a Disney on Ice show. In addition to all of that, the characters were featured prominently in a storyline on Once Upon a Time – not to mention the presumably millions of costumes for little girls on the last two Halloweens....
