The New Iron Man Will Be A Young Black Woman

The New Iron Man Will Be A Young Black Woman By Jacob Hall/July 6, 2016 11:00 am EST The greatest trick that superhero comics ever pulled was convincing the reader that everything they do would actually last. In the comic book realm, death isn’t permanent. Shattered friendships will always be restored. Major revelations will be swept under the rug if necessary. Even if it takes a few years, the status quo always returns at some point....

‘American Gods’ Premiere Review: ‘The Bone Orchard’ Is One Of The Most Fascinating TV Pilots In Ages By Jacob Hall/May 1, 2017 9:30 am EST 16 years after the publication of Neil Gaiman’s original novel and after three years of development at the hands of Bryan Fuller (Hannibal), Michael Green (Logan) and Starz, American Gods has finally arrived on television. And it’s spectacular. The only reason it’s not the television event of 2017 is because Legion has already arrived and was similarly refreshing in its refusal to play by the standard rules....

Ready Player One Trailer Breakdown An Exhaustive Look At Every Geeky Pop Culture Reference

‘Ready Player One’ Trailer Breakdown: An Exhaustive Look At Every Geeky Pop Culture Reference By Alex Riviello/Dec. 12, 2017 8:00 am EST If you’ve read Ernest Cline’s Ready Player One, you know that it’s absolutely steeped in pop culture references. The lead character is a pop culture junkie and there’s barely a page that doesn’t contain some sort of explicit reference to a geek property. While in the book the main character is all about the 1980s, the latest trailer for the film adaptation shows that director Steven Spielberg has eased up on the references to the movies (some of which were references to his work!...

Saturday Night Live Review Season 41 Episode 1 Hosted By Miley Cyrus

It’s Mooney’s earnest attitude that makes this work so well, not to mention the surprising use of time travel (because Miley is a time-lord obviously), and he will be missed now that he’s dead....

Star Wars The Old Republic Trailer Shows The Potential For Original Standalone Movies

‘Star Wars: The Old Republic’ Trailer Shows The Potential For Original, Standalone Movies By Ethan Anderton/Oct. 12, 2016 1:30 pm EST One of the chief concerns fans had about the direction of the Star Wars saga over at Disney and Lucasfilm was that the companies might not take advantage of how expansive the galaxy far, far away can be. While it makes sense that Star Wars: The Force Awakens would continue the legacy and story of the main characters from the previous two trilogies, Rogue One: A Star Wars Story is still playing things rather safe by focusing on a plot tied directly to the events of the first movie....

‘Starship Troopers,’ The Unlikely Cult Franchise: Would You Like To Know More? By Matthew Monagle/Aug. 18, 2017 12:00 pm EST Depending on how cute you get with your math, there are no less than four separate universes focused upon Robert Heinlein’s Starship Troopers. First, of course, came the original novel itself, then the 1997 blockbuster film by Paul Verhoeven. From there, things get a little dicier. There was Roughnecks: The Starship Troopers Chronicles, an animated television series based on Verhoeven’s film that ran for two seasons back in 1999 and 2000....
