Eiichiro Oda’s One Piece is one of the greatest and longest-running fictional series of all time. After 22 years, Oda confirmed that only 80 per cent of the series has been completed so far. During that time, fans have developed plenty of theories regarding the series’ plot and its characters. Some are more recent, while others have been left unresolved as far back as the series’ debut in 1997. With the Wano Country arc, the most anticipated arc in the entire series, being nearly half-way through, more interesting theories are on the rise and we certainly hope that eventually come true....

Science-fiction films, when they are good, send viewers into alternate, moving universes marked by reminders of life on Earth. Things may seem vaguely familiar or parallel in these movies, but supernatural elements lurk behind every corner. Through technological landscapes, horrifying monsters, and scientific anomalies, the best science fiction films delve deeply into humanity’s most interesting fears and potentials. Before the days of big-budget special effects, filmmakers relied on prosthetics, impressive camera work, and elaborate set designs to make their science-fiction worlds appealing....

Spider-Man and Iron Man are quite the pair, aren’t they? With their warped father/son relationship, it’s really no surprise that fans have created dozens of memes to celebrate – and tease – exactly that. Here are ten of our favorite Spider-Man and Iron Man memes. We hope you enjoy them half as much as we did! Anything? Really Peter, how far are you willing to go to keep the suit? Probably not as far as Tom Holland – the king fanboy....

Netflix brought back a beloved ‘80s series in Voltron: Legendary Defender. Following a group of young paladins as they pilot spaceships that resemble lions that can come together, the series has drawn comparisons to everything from Power Rangers to Avatar: The Last Airbender. One property that it doesn’t get many comparisons to is Harry Potter. That’s likely because Voltron is so firmly in the science fiction realm, while the Harry Potter franchise is more fantasy....

If every rumored movie actually went into production and was released in theaters or on streaming, then there would be limitless content available for viewers to consume. But, as the recent cancelation of Batgirl deftly demonstrated, even major studio investments and tentpole projects sometimes get shelved. Although most movie concepts never make it past the theoretical stage, certain films have gotten pretty far into development or generated quite a lot of grassroots buzz to no avail....

Lots of movies never make it past the pre-production stages. Whether it’s by failure to secure financing or mysterious delays, some movies are just destined to remain as pipe dreams. Every so often, however, the stars align, and a movie is shot, edited, and completed, but, for one reason or another, it never sees the light of day. This most often occurs with small budget features, but, every now and again, a hot property with a big budget and an all-star cast is never released....

The most popular sitcoms today are the ones that can be easily translated into memes. It’s what has made Bob’s Burgers one of the biggest animated comedies in years. It’s also why mockumentary series like Parks and Rec, The Office, and Modern Family are so popular – the characters’ talking heads, where they talk to the camera and deliver hysterical one-liners, are basically memes already. With its running gags and wacky characters, It’s Always Sunny in Philadelphia is one of the most meme-able shows on the air....

There’s no better time than now to be an anime fan. Not only is the formerly niche interest now becoming mainstream (as seen in its prevalence in streaming services), but Hollywood has a keen interest on the medium’s unique form of storytelling. Just recently, Alita: Battle Angel, Death Note, and Ghost in the Shell all got live-action adaptations, with more to come, such as Cowboy Bebop and a remake of Your Name....

Since 1977, Star Wars has taken the world by storm and created one of the biggest cult followings ever in its nine movie franchise. With hundreds of memorable characters, cameos and easter eggs throughout the saga and the overall dynamic storytelling, it’s safe to say Star Wars is now a staple of pop culture. With the recent release of the last of the Star Wars movies, many fans are wondering what to watch next and Disney is looking for the next big Star Wars project that can keep the Star Wars fandom happy....

Typically, films like to create a canon and a universe, in which, a certain number of things actually ‘happened’ in the world. Take Star Wars, for example. There is a huge universe full of films, books, TV shows, games, and many other entities that ‘happened’ in the world of the characters we follow. When Disney took over, Star Wars had much of its canon reduced to nothing more than legends, effectively retconning various story elements....

As soon as October hits, horror buffs cannot wait to sink their (fake vampire) teeth into some good old-fashioned horror films. Watching scary movies is acceptable any time throughout the year, of course, but the terror is amplified throughout the month of October thanks to Halloween. With the help of haunted houses, dimly lit pumpkins, and a brisk chill in the air, horror movies throughout the month of October just seems right....

Making it this far on Game of Thrones is already an impressive accomplishment. It’s even more impressive for an individual like Cersei Lannister, who has consistently remained one of the show’s most powerful and formidable characters. Cersei’s survival and her power have been a product of her unique strengths. These strengths stem from her personality, her actions, and character development, all of which have contributed to her being one of the dangerous and successful players in the game of thrones since the first season....

Along with the books and the films, there are other books written by Tolkien about Middle Earth such as The Hobbit and The Silmarillion. The massive amount of canon has given fans plenty of references and information to pay homage to in their art, cosplay, and tattoos. Tattoos especially are good for references to popular culture such as The Lord of the Rings because it provides fans with the opportunities to be as minimalistic or as detailed in their designs as they want to be....

Since its release, 1917 has been taking the world by storm. Between winning the Best Motion Picture - Drama award at the Golden Globes, being praised by critics and fans alike, the film has become an instant hit. Taking audiences on an incredibly emotional and thrilling journey set during World War One, 1917 is one that everyone is talking about. With a stellar cast of experienced names being mixed expertly with up-and-coming young talent, the acting on display within the film is phenomenal....

Batman V Superman: Dawn of Justice will introduce audiences to many central characters in the DCEU. Several other members of the Justice League will be making cameos, including Wonder Woman, The Flash and Aquaman. One less well-known character who will also make a cameo is the cybernetic hero Cyborg, a.k.a. Victor Stone. While some were initially surprised when the studio announced that not only would Cyborg appear in Dawn of Justice, but also in his own solo film down the road, it makes a lot of sense when you consider Cyborg’s importance to the current DC comic universe....

TV shows can run for years. Sometimes they get canceled while still in their prime. Other times, they drag on and on, losing whatever it was that made them special in the first place. We’ve all had that experience of falling madly in love with a show, only to become sad when it prematurely gets the ax. Similarly, we all know what it’s like to give up on a program because it’s just not going anywhere new anymore....

Movie posters are essentially their own form of art. Over the decades of the movie industry, designers have perfected the many techniques needed to create a compelling film poster. We’ve seen some incredible ones over the years and some less than great variations. The science fiction genre is one of the biggest in Hollywood and has allowed designers to make some truly legendary posters. They are usually the most creative pieces of art in the industry, but many of them hold secret details you might not have known....

One of the most popular heroes in the Marvel Cinematic Universe is Thor , played by Chris Hemsworth, one of the original Avengers. While the God of Thunder is a force to be reckoned with, without a doubt, this hero comes with quite a lot of humor. Given the success of his franchise as well as Thor’s appearances in the Avengers movies, there’s a massive fandom all around the world that is in love with him....

Listen: you can’t dismiss your follower count on Twitter as a vanity metric. Because more followers mean more influence in your industry and proven interest in your content. Besides, Twitter is the go-to social network for engaging your audience. According to the Sprout Social Index™ 2021: Accelerate, 50% of social consumers use Twitter daily and 30% want to see brands use it more. Fast-moving and so simple to use, Twitter is arguably the easiest social following to grow from zero....

The focus of almost every modern TV show is romantic relationships and all the joy and woes that go along with them. However, sometimes these shows offer us a breath of fresh air in the form of an intriguing plot befalling a couple of protagonists that share the same DNA. And just sometimes, it’s really, really good. Whether it is demons, zombies, or even each other they’re fighting, these iconic on-screen brothers never fail to entertain us....
