A LEGO set may have just revealed an important battle in Fantastic Beasts: The Crimes of Grindelwald, including how the Dark Wizard escapes MACUSA. The first trailer for the upcoming sequel to Fantastic Beasts And Where To Find Them was released earlier this week, and gave fans a good look at Jude Law as the young Professor Dumbledore, as well as a lot of footage of Newt Scamander (Eddie Redmayne) back in action as he travels to Paris and meets up with Dumbledore....

Every month, Sony adds a bevy of free games to its PlayStation Plus premium program. August 2018 is no different. PlayStation 3, PlayStation 4, and PlayStation Vita owners each get a couple of cool games to add to their collections for as long as they remain PS Plus subscribers. On PlayStation 4, the main attractions are Mafia III and Dead by Daylight. PlayStation 3 owners will get their hands on Serious Sam 3: BFE and Bound by Flame....

Cersei Lannister almost suffered a miscarriage in Game of Thrones season 7. HBO’s fantastical series created by Davide Benioff and D.B. Weiss based on George R.R. Martin’s A Song of Ice and Fire novels wrapped up its eight-season run last month. But it remains a favorite topic of conversation for fans especially how the series wrote the endgame for their favorite characters. After years of intricate storytelling, Game of Thrones season 8 answered the show’s core question: who will sit on the Iron Throne....

With two buyers reportedly interested in acquiring GameStop, the struggling video game retailer could have a new owner as early as next month. GameStop came into popularity when it began springing up in malls across the country in the late 1990s. Barnes & Noble purchased the company in 1999, but the company became independent in 2004, after which it bought EB Games in 2005. The acquisition of EB Games launched GameStop across the world and made the retailer one of the largest retail outlets for video games at the time....

Last Updated: April 23, 2020 Gilmore Girls aired for seven seasons on The WB and The CW. The series is a multigenerational comedy-drama centering around the Gilmore family, primarily around mother/daughter duo, Rory and Lorelai. They live in the somewhat eccentric small town of Stars Hollow. Gilmore Girls established a reputation for its strange (but lovable) side characters, its pop culture references, and its snappy fast-paced dialogue. Even though Rory and Lorelai are the main characters, the large supporting cast is what helped make the series work for as long as it did....

The Good Place actress Jameela Jamil, who plays Tahani Al-Jamil in the comedy series, was misnamed during the Golden Globes red carpet. While errors during live broadcasts every now and then are acceptable, what makes it more intriguing is the fact that she’s dubbed “Kamilah Al-Jamil,” her character’s obnoxious sister from the series played by Rebecca Hazlewood. Outside of The Good Place community, Jamil is making a name for herself along her co-stars Kristen Bell and Ted Danson, who are both household names thanks to their respective long careers....

Grey’s Anatomy has featured a character with every type of attribute TV has to offer. We’ve got the good guys, the antagonists, the dreamy boys, the backstabbers, the tough ones, and the bad boys. The most popular tend to be either the dreamy ones i.e. McDreamy, or the bad boys such as Mark Sloan and Alex Karev. The show plays into the old trope of turning the initial bad boy into someone with a much gentler disposition....

In the latest edition of the Power On newsletter, Bloomberg’s Mark Gurman says he expects Apple will release a rebranded iMac Pro that is “bigger than the current 24-inch” but with a similar design language. We’ve heard quite a bit about Apple’s plans for a new iMac over the last few months. Even though, it wasn’t clear whether Apple would just replace the 27-inch iMac, launch a new iMac Pro with its own silicon, or both things....

Rumors of a planned Downton Abbey movie have swirled since the series ended its six-season run in 2016, and now it’s finally coming to fruition, with production set to start this summer. The original cast is set to return for the feature film, so Maggie Smith, Hugh Bonneville, Michelle Dockery, Elizabeth McGovern, Laura Carmichael, Brendan Coyle, and others will be reprising their roles (either upstairs or downstairs) at Downton for the upcoming film, the story of which is currently being kept under wraps....

Aquaman fans who have seen the latest DC movie are hitting the internet with their reactions and the word of mouth is very good. Aquaman is the DCEU’s sole offering in 2018 and the first since the lukewarm reception of Justice League. As such, there’s a lot riding on the movie and its success, especially since Wonder Woman is the only widely praised movie of DC’s interconnected cinematic universe. Initial reactions based on a test screenings of Aquaman suggested the movie was good but not great....

Following bit parts in both Game of Thrones and Bridget Jones’ Baby, British pop star Ed Sheeran is reportedly being considered for a role in Danny Boyle’s next film. Although the as-yet-untitled movie is a musical comedy, it’s unclear whether Sheeran will be contributing one of his Caribbean-inflected songs to the soundtrack, or whether he’ll be solely in an on-camera role. As we reported back in March, Boyle will be helming the next James Bond movie, currently titled Bond 25....

In fall 2012, Ubisoft published Far Cry 3, the sequel to 2008’s adventure shooter Far Cry 2, with a new protagonist and a new setting. Thanks to a mix of critical acclaim and excellent word of mouth among players, Far Cry 3 ended up shipping over 10 million units in the space of a year - far outstripping its predecessor. Though the game received some counter-criticism with regards to the strength of its story, what mattered was that everyone was talking about it....

While a series about the struggles of a small Texas town’s high school football team, itself an adaptation of a moderately successful feature film starring Billy Bob Thornton, surprised everyone by becoming the critical darling that it was — weird murder subplot aside — the series sometimes struggled to find an audience during its initial run. It’s final season actually aired on DirecTV’s 101 Network, instead of NBC where the series began....

After a trial that lasted more than a year, Judge Yvonne Gonzalez Rogers finally issued her permanent injunction in the case of Apple vs. Epic Games. While Apple will be forced to change some of the App Store guidelines, Epic Games has been ordered to pay Apple a 30% commission of all sales the company registered by bypassing the App Store’s in-app purchases system with Fortnite last year. Now Epic has done just that and paid Apple $6 million....

Ernest Cline is an American slam artist, a novelist, and a screenwriter. He has become most synonymous with his novels Ready Player One and Armada. He helped co-write the screenplay adaptation of Ready Player One and will be seeing it released in theaters on March 29th, 2018. Screen Rant got a chance to talk with Ernest Cline on press day, where we discussed what inspired him to write Ready Player One, how heavily he is inspired by Steven Spielberg and Zak Penn, and what he would have changed differently about the novel now that it’s been translated to the big screen....

The last time a major Hollywood studio Frank Herbert’s classic sci-fi novel Dune hit the big screen, it didn’t go so well. Director David Lynch was bombarded with notes and, at least on some cuts, he had his credit replaced with “Alan Smithee,” the name directors use when they disavow one of their films. Unsurprisingly, this behind-the-scenes drama ended with a movie that was poorly reviewed and failed at the box office....

Bethesda’s day one patch for Fallout 76 promises to be a supersized update that will take up more room than the game itself. Although developers had already teased that Fallout 76 would be four times larger than any other Fallout game, installing the game will require some serious space, while other players claim they can’t uninstall the game’s beta phase. Going online with the first MMO Fallout since the series began back in 1997 was always going to be a massive endeavor, but Fallout 76 seems to be getting bigger by the day....

It’s always the case when the latest installment of the MCU comes out that it gets the comparison treatment of whatever came before. Spider-Man: Homecoming was an excellent introduction of Spider-Man into the MCU and it helped establish this version of the character - as is usually the way - as a fan favorite. From the indication of Spider-Man: Far From Home, it’s clear that he’s not going to be a key part of the MCU going forward....

The sudden and tragic death of actor Paul Walker in 2013 not only had long lasting effects on his family, it also threw the production of Furious 7 into turmoil, creating doubts as to whether the film, or even the franchise, could be completed without him. After an understandable delay, the cast and crew decided to press forward, bringing in Walker’s brothers, Caleb and Cody, as stand-ins and rewriting the script to give Paul a respectful, heartfelt, tearful, emotional goodbye scene....
