By this point, it shouldn’t really come as a surprise to anyone that Fox’s Gotham is going to be introducing more villains as time goes on. After all, the second season has been known as “Rise of the Villains” and now with the second half of the series set to start on February 29th, audiences will be introduced to the “Wrath of the Villains” storyline. As far as comic book narrative go, the unspoken rule has typically been the more baddies the better – which appears to be a formula well adhered to in upcoming movies like Suicide Squad and even Batman V Superman: Dawn of Justice....

i Halloween 2018 may be disregarding every sequel and remake that followed John Carpenter’s original Halloween, but it’s not abandoning them completely. The upcoming sequel will reference the non-canon sequels in subtle ways out of respect for the fans - and some of these references even show up in the movie’s first trailer. John Carpenter’s indie horror classic Halloween was a game-changer in the genre when it was released back in 1978....

A few months ago my original HomePod died. Its early death was likely an unfortunate side effect of a bad software update. And since Apple no longer sells the original HomePod after discontinuing it early this year, the only option is to buy a HomePod mini, buy a used HomePod, or look elsewhere entirely. Though it doesn’t possess the amazing sound quality of the original HomePod, the HomePod mini is a good smart speaker, and is better than the original in other ways....

British composer Segun Akinola has been brought aboard to score the upcoming eleventh season of Doctor Who. He will be replacing Murray Gold, who has been scoring the series since Doctor Who’s soft reboot in 2005. One of the longest-running shows in television history, Doctor Who follows a time-traveling humanoid alien known only as The Doctor who traverses the entire universe in search of helpless beings in need of saving. On these journeys, the Doctor pilots a time machine known as the TARDIS (standing for “Time and Relative Dimension in Space”) and often recruits new companions that are met along the way....

Does the new TARDIS design in Doctor Who connect to the season 11 villain? It’s common practice for the TARDIS to undergo a new design every so often, and season 11’s model showcases a major evolution from the ship from previous seasons. In fact, aside from all the various factors that influenced its updated design, it’s possible that villains from this season may have had a major effect on the Thirteenth Doctor’s time and space-traveling police box....

Spider-Man: Into the Spider-Verse introduces Miles Morales and other Spider-People, but does it have an end-credits scene teasing the sequel? Over the past few years, there have been a number of Spidey-related movies released. Tom Holland’s Peter Parker joined the Marvel Cinematic Universe, Venom launched Sony’s non-Spidey Marvel movie franchise, and now Miles Morales leads his own animated feature film. Created by Brian Michael Bendis and Sara Pichelli, Miles has become a favorite comic book character, with fans calling for him to receive a big screen adaptation....

Transformations are an important part of Dragon Ball’s identity. There are few moments as iconic as Goku turning Super Saiyan for the first time on Namek. From there, the franchise embraced the idea of increasingly-powerful forms, refusing to let go even to this day. They aren’t just reserved for heroes, either. In fact, villains are the ones who typically transform. While Frieza popularized the concept alongside Goku on Namek, Dragon Ball has been transforming characters for ages, and the best villain transformations are the ones that really change the tide of battle....

Dwayne Johnson will have a formidable co-star for the upcoming action comedy Red Notice as Gal Gadot, Wonder Woman herself, has officially been cast as the female lead. Red Notice is the latest collaboration between Johnson and director Rawson Marshall Thurber. In 2016, they worked together on Central Intelligence and reunited for the action drama Skyscraper, which will have a wide theatrical release on July 13. Last February, Universal Pictures and Legendary Pictures secured Red Notice’s rights after an intense bidding war, and a 2020 release date has already been officially announced....

With all that has happened over the course of the past three seasons, there isn’t much the titular town of Cinemax’s Banshee hasn’t seen. But at the start of the fourth and final season, the once-quaint Pennsylvania burg has found itself playing host to something new: a dark and terrifyingly brutal serial killer. While slashers of all sorts have populated nearly every corner of television for years, this new killer has gone and done something the others were lucky enough to avoid: This one has made a personal enemy of Lucas Hood (Antony Starr)....

Set photos from Marvel’s Falcon & Winter Soldier series confirm the show is set immediately after the events of Avengers: Endgame. The Marvel Cinematic Universe is one of the greatest success stories in the history of Hollywood. It’s an innovative shared universe consisting of (currently) 23 interlinked movies and combined it’s grossed over $22 billion in the global box office. Avengers: Endgame became the highest-grossing movie of all time, beating Avatar’s record....

Although Fortnite players already have plenty on their collective plates, some suspect that there could even be an incoming comet impact to contend with. The game’s Battle Royale mode is one of the most popular games around at the moment, drawing in players through a mixture of its addictive and easy-to-grasp gameplay and it’s highly tempting free-to-play entry point. Although the game has a huge player base, those users are wondering exactly what Epic Games has planned now that Fortnite has taken over the world....

A popular video game franchise may only be as popular as its main villain, and with Ganondorf at the forefront of the Legend of Zelda series, we can see why he’s been around for as long as he has. Like any good villain, Ganon serves as Link’s polar opposite. In every iteration, he doesn’t fail to deliver terror and fear amongst the Hylians and the Hyrule Kingdom. At times his power seems almost limitless, which makes him the ultimate test of courage for only the most worthy hero....

Ghostbusters 3 officially secures a July 2020 release date. The Ghostbusters franchise began in 1984 with the release of the original comedy that left a lasting imprint on pop culture, grossing nearly $300 million worldwide on a $30 million budget - but the sequel arrived five years later and only made just north of $200 million. The franchise largely disappeared for decades since, up until Sony rebooted the IP in 2016 with an all-female cast....

HBO’s Girls is a divisive portrait of a group of millennials all on their own paths to self-discovery. Many have eviscerated the show’s characters for being selfish, entitled brats. Others have praised Girls for its ability to capture the pitfalls of early adulthood, that often involves taking one step forward and fourteen steps back. No matter which Girls camp you reside in, everyone can agree that Hannah and Co. are obsessed with three people—me, myself, and I....

Movie lovers may now be two movies deep into the Fantastic Beasts series but there’s just no comparison to the original Harry Potter books and movies.

New images reveal a first look at Michael Chiklis as the Executioner in Gotham. There was good news for fans of the series this month, as Fox officially renewed Gotham for a fourth season this fall. This news comes as the show remains one of Fox’s best-performing scripted series (despite a drop in ratings this year), and it looks like there will be plenty more time to explore Gotham’s versions of famous Batman characters....

The Arrowverse is about to expand as Supergirl (Melissa Benoist) heads on over to the CW. Although the Kara Zor-El already made an impact on the CW’s run of superheroes last season, her presence on the network suggests a major event after the fall season kicks off. Merged into one place, executive producer Marc Guggenheim will have a full time job keeping track of all the different players – especially with all the lineup changes and new characters....

DC’s The Doom Patrol are officially heading to Titans courtesy of Geoff Johns. After gestating for years as a potential TNT series, word arrived last spring that Titans would instead help launch DC’s new digital streaming service. Along with Young Justice: Outsiders, the series will explore the sidekicks of the comics and could be the beginning of a new TV initiative for the publisher. The core cast is already locked in, with Robin, Beast Boy, Hawk and Dove, Raven, and Starfire all included—but plenty of other DC heroes and villains look to be showing up as well....

Ewan McGregor reiterates he would be up to reprise Obi-Wan Kenobi in a Star Wars spinoff movie, should such a project ever come to fruition. For a number of years, the Jedi Knight has been rumored to receive his own standalone film, chronicling the years between Revenge of the Sith and A New Hope. McGregor’s performance as young Obi-Wan in the prequels was well-received, so fans are very interested in seeing the actor return....
