Legion has never been the most straightforward TV show. Since it began three years ago, it’s inflicted a barrage of trippy imagery, musical numbers, and twisting story beats onto unsuspecting viewers. Not what most people were expecting from a show based on an X-Men character. But even accepting that the plot was never really the point, Legion’s time travel-filled finale left a lot of questions still hanging. Spoiler alert: Professor X’s son David was able to prevent the Shadow King Amahl Farouk from using his infant self as a host, and a whole new timeline was created....

Back in the 1980s, continuity wasn’t something writers paid an abundant amount of attention to, especially not when the topic in focus was a sitcom. What people didn’t realize, was that Cheers would be such an incredible success that we’d still be watching it almost four decades later. The show was hard on the comedy aspect, something that ballooned up further in the ensuing seasons, also opening it up to many moments where the series didn’t make sense in terms of continuity and general logic....

The DC Extended Universe – or “Worlds of DC,” as it is officially known – all began with Zack Snyder’s reboot of the Superman franchise, Man of Steel. That movie’s depiction of Superman was controversial at best, since it had a Nolan-ized The Dark Knight-style take on a character that didn’t suit that kind of visual palette or gruff personality. Since then, Superman’s portrayal in the DCEU has only gotten worse....

While less talented job seekers fight for the less glamorous jobs, the situation is reversed for the genuinely gifted and skilled. These potential employees can pick and choose. They research companies on Glassdoor and select the employer who they believe will give them the best opportunities for career advancement. If your company wants a chance of attracting these top-level applicants you need to find a way to stand out and gain an edge on the competition....

Many of the biggest movies of all time are (arguably) family films. From Star Wars to Pirates of the Caribbean, the Marvel Cinematic Universe to Pixar movies, if studios want to rake in hundreds of millions, aiming for as broad an audience as possible seems the way to go. Everyone knows about the biggest movies, and that, for instance, Avatar is the highest-grossing movie of all time (though Star Wars: The Force Awakens is nipping at its heels)....

With every horror movie comes a depraved antagonist, and when it comes to female villains, there is a whole feast to behold. Haunting our screens with their seemingly gratuitous acts of violence, each decade has seen a cult female figure with violence on the mind. Whether it’s a warped surgeon, psychotic mother, scorned woman or disturbed spirit, these women have been leaving cinema-goers quivering in their boots. From the enigmatic indoctrination of Margaret White in Carrie, to the disturbing sadomasochistic tendencies of She in Antichrist, we take you through some of the best fright-filled films and the terrifying women at their center....

In recent years, it seems like every major movie release is either a sequel, prequel, remake or spin-off. Sometimes that can be a bad thing, sometimes it can be a good thing. It all depends on what the fans want; that’s no secret. Moviemaking is a business — people tend to forget that — and Hollywood studios benefit from listening to the fans. Take Deadpool for example, a movie which 20th Century Fox was hesitant about making, but when the test footage leaked in 2014, fan reception convinced the studio to move forward with the project....

Thor has been a mainstay at Marvel for over 50 years now, debuting in Journey Into Mystery #83 and eventually gaining such popularity that the title would be renamed for him. He was a founding member of every incarnation of the Avengers, has played key roles in many of the Marvel comic events, and has two solo films, with a third on the way, in the Marvel Cinematic Universe. Thor is, in short, a pretty popular guy....

Over half a century ago, Gene Roddenberry unleashed a galactic adventure saga onto the small screen that boldly went where no other television series had gone before. Star Trek: The Original Series debuted on NBC in 1966 and forever cemented its place as one of the most groundbreaking works of science fiction ever created. Since then, Star Trek has developed a hardcore, long-lasting fanbase and expanded its stories into various mediums of entertainment, including movies, other TV shows, video games, comics, books, and more....

While past seasons of American Horror Story had utilized supernatural elements to create thrills and chills, Ryan Murphy decided the seventh season of his famous anthology series would be different. American Horror Story: Cult decided to focus on real terror that’s visceral in the modern era, and taken from people’s darkest phobias and insecurities. Done appropriately, they can be just as compelling as any ghost or ghoul. Fans had long wondered if the series would ever dive into cults and cult leaders and it finally did, revealing the terrifying ramifications of blind belief without critical thought....

Ever since he took over the role from Ed Norton in 2012’s The Avengers, Mark Ruffalo’s portrayal of the Hulk has been one of the biggest fan-favorites in the Marvel Cinematic Universe. Throughout all the phases that have come and gone, Bruce Banner and his inner green hero have captured the hearts of millions of fans. Even though Ruffalo’s time with the character has yet to give him a solo film, Hulk continues to pop up where he is needed and, quite frankly, wherever he wants to be....

Dreams offer us a gateway into our subconscious, revealing ideas or feelings we’ve buried deep inside. Cinema has always taken advantage of the mystery that surrounds dreams and nightmares, and dream sequences have been a staple in movies for decades. They are often used to give us a glimpse into the inner workings of a character’s mind, revealing their fears, passions, and obsessions. Sometimes these sequences work, and other times not so much....

If you’ve been a fan of Shondaland shows like Grey’s Anatomy, Scandal, Private Practice, and How to Get Away With Murder, you might have started to hear a little bit about what goes on behind the scenes. Even before the advent of social media, we could tell that there was nearly as much drama going on behind the scenes of Seattle Grace as there was when the cameras were rolling....

The Star Wars universe is one of the largest and deepest realms of the science fiction genre. It’s a galaxy far, far away stuffed to the brim with various species, planets, star-systems, and celestial bodies. Sure, we can name several of our favorite leading and supporting characters like Luke, Vader, or Yoda, but what about the cast of hundreds? There are loads of secondary and background characters that populate the universe but like all actors and extras, they have names....

Mike Mignola’s Hellboy comics are rich with Lovecraftian monsters, creepy legends, and bone-chilling folklore. As many movies and cartoons have been made about the various legends in the Dark Horse comic series, more could still be made every year without running out of source material. Between all of the mythical pantheons, fairy lore, and cool monsters, it’s hard to see why the Hellboy TV and movie catalog isn’t as thick as Marvel’s....

Although the swashbuckler genre has clearly outstayed its welcome in Hollywood and superheroes now dominate the multiplex, Disney refuses to let a franchise die. So a reboot of the Pirates of the Caribbean series is in development. It’s been in and out of momentous progress, with various directors and screenwriters floating around the project at any given time. If the Pirates franchise is going to recover from its last couple of disasters, this movie will need to be the Batman Begins of the Pirates of the Caribbean franchise....

While horror icons like Freddy Krueger and Jason Voorhees were created in the ‘80s, one of the most famous werewolf movies was also released in that decade. John Landis may be recognized for his comedies like The Blues Brothers and National Lampoon’s Animal House, but the director is also respected in the horror genre thanks to An American Werewolf in London. The film stars David Naughton and Griffin Dunne as two college students that are attacked by a werewolf while touring Britain....

There is nothing more frustrating than starting a brand new television program, getting invested in the character’s lives, friendships, and relationships, just to have that program ripped from you. As an audience, all we want is a little bit of closure – and one more season of our new favorites! It’s hard to say goodbye to a cancelled series when all you can see is its potential. Over the last couple of years, the world has had its fair share of brilliant scripted dramas that were taken from us too soon....

Well, the future is officially here. We have entered the 2020s, and if the movies are to believed, this is when the future is really supposed to kick off. The 2010s saw many radical technological innovations. But let’s be serious, we are certainly not living in the future that cinema promised us. If you look outside your window or read the news, you can clearly see that we aren’t living in “the future” ⁠— we’re living in a slightly different version of the 2000s....
