Yet, part of the CW fandom is recognizing and acknowledging that its stars are ridiculously attractive....

Rowling has changed the history of Dumbledore’s secret organization, the Order of the Phoenix. The second installment in the Fantastic Beasts series has proved to be a turning point for the expanding Harry Potter franchise.

The Fast & Furious franchise has evolved from being just another popular early 2000s B-movie series into a critically-praised action property and one of the feathers in Universal Pictures’ cap, standing next to Star Wars in the pantheon of 21st century blockbuster franchises that can succeed worldwide with nary a superhero in sight. But all things must come to an end, and the Fast & Furious series is set to conclude its run with a final trilogy of films that promise to send the franchise’s main characters off with a bang - while grinding the series out to an even ten installments....
Game Of Thrones star Sean Bean has revealed what was going through Ned Stark’s head moments before his death. While television shows killing off major characters has become almost commonplace now, it was a much rarer occurrence when the first season of Game Of Thrones aired in 2011. Sean Bean was the biggest name in the cast at the time, and Ned Stark was established from the beginning as a noble, righteous character....
Director Dean Devlin’s Geostorm is on track for an opening weekend at the box office that won’t even be able to cover the cost of reshoots. The Independence Day producer does his best Roland Emmerich impression with the Gerard Butler-starring disaster flick, which concerns a network of weather-controlling satellites that suddenly and mysteriously begin to pound Earth with a global catastrophe along the lines of 2012 and The Day After Tomorrow....
An interesting exploit has been discovered in Santa Monica Studio’s PS4 exclusive God of War that has players experiencing the story of the game in a whole new way. God of War has been praised for it’s excellent visuals and incredibly life-like character animations. Of all the game’s strengths, the cutscenes and storytelling are on par with the cinematic quality of titles like Metal Gear Solid and Uncharted. With all the attention and love God of War has received since its release, it may be surprising to find that the 2018 critically-acclaimed title and winner of multiple Game of the Year awards apparently still holds some undiscovered secrets....
Godzilla: King of the Monsters was originally scheduled to arrive in 2018, but ended up being delayed by Rogue One: A Star Wars Story. Sixty years after Godzilla made their big screen debut in Ishirō Honda’s 1954 classic, the big fella was rebooted for American audiences by Legendary and then lesser-known director Gareth Edwards. Whereas Roland Emmerich’s 1998 Godzilla remake (unsuccessfully) tried to refashion the sci-fi franchise as a cartoonish blockbuster, Edwards’ reboot took a decidedly more grounded and dramatic approach....
Google’s next phone will be a stark departure in terms of specs, design, and cameras. We also learned today that the Pixel 6 and 6 Pro will not include a USB-C charger in the box. For the last few years, Google has shipped an 18W USB-C Power Adapter with every Pixel phone. The original Pixel in 2016 notably included bricks that partially color-matched with the device, but the company quickly switched to an entirely stark white exterior....
When Avengers: Infinity War and its currently untitled sequel were announced, speculation began immediately as to the size of the films’ casts. Both movies have been described as the culmination of the Marvel Cinematic Universe to this point, and Marvel Studios does not appear to be holding back.

When Disney acquired Lucasfilm, and by extension the Star Wars property, one of the biggest changes they made was the closure of long-time game developer LucasArts. Highly anticipated games in development like Star Wars 1313 and First Assault were cancelled, and the rights were given to the mega gaming conglomerate EA Games. So far, the only fruit of this deal has been Star Wars: Battlefront, the reboot of a LucasArts franchise which pits armies of Rebels and Imperials against each other in an online setting....
Though it might not seem it as they often get overshadowed by Jedi, The Force, and lightsabers, spaceships are a huge part of the identity of the Star Wars universe. Star Wars like any good piece of science fiction has some tremendously designed and iconic looking spaceships. The look of the average spaceship in the Star Wars universe is just as important to the franchise’s world building as more lore about the Jedi or the Force powers of the Sith....
When George Lucas created Star Wars in the ‘70s, he couldn’t have known the effect it would have on pop culture.

Created for 1994’s Uncanny X-Men #317, Blink rose to prominence during the Age of Apocalypse storyline and soon became a hit amongst comic readers....
Fallout 76 is easily the most disappointing game of 2018. In an industry that sees hundreds of interesting games released every year, some accolades aren’t worth winning. It’s easy for a good or even great game to get lost in the shuffle nowadays; for indie titles, that goes double for a release that simply missed the mark. The developer can buckle down, learn from it, and come back later with a new offering that aims to improve or change the deficiencies of the past....
Season 17 of the animated series Family Guy will see the Griffin family moving from Quahog to Washington D.C., after Peter Griffin is hired as President Donald Trump’s new Press Secretary.

Phil Lord and Chris Miller will be credited as Executive Producers on Solo: A Star Wars Story come May. Lucasfilm made a major shakeup last summer when it was announced that Lord and Miller had left Solo as directors. The 21 Jump Street duo was hired to infuse Star Wars with some new, young blood, and they would’ve done just that with a younger version of Han Solo, played by Alden Ehrenreich....
