When The Joker disappears from Gotham City, only Harley Quinn can step into the role. That’s the shocking twist that readers of Batman: White Knight are currently reeling from, as Sean Murphy’s rejuvenated take on Gotham City puts not just one, but two Harley Quinns into the spotlight. The series was pitched as the story of a cured Joker holding Batman accountable to Gotham, but with Issue #3 now on the shelves, it’s the saga of Harley Quinn that’s gaining more attention… or Quinns, as in the original and the modern replacement....

Harrison Ford and Mark Hamill were among the guests at the Star Wars Celebration 2017 panel in Orlando.

Lucas stayed present throughout the panel, and was joined on stage by Peter Mayhew, Anthony Daniels, Hayden Christensen, and Billy Dee Williams. Following on from that, Mark Hamill took to the stage, and entertained the audience by engaging in discussion with Lucas over how difficult some lines were to say, and understand....

What would the Harry Potter series have been like without prejudice? We may remember the novels for giving us a gateway to the fantastic world of magic, but the wizarding world was filled with corruption, bigotry, and extremism. It wasn’t apparent up until perhaps Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire, but the issue of blood supremacy had been mentioned right from Harry Potter and the Philosopher’s Stone. Certain families were acknowledged as purebloods and while Harry’s social circle always played down the importance of being a pureblood, even those people agreed there was something worth mentioning about being one....

In Harry Potter, friendship is extremely important. The friendships between Harry, Ron, and Hermione are central to the series, but they aren’t the only friendships that are important.

Other than Ron and Hermione, Neville and Luna are two of Harry’s closest friends. They provide him with a lot of support and help along his journey....

The Triwizard Tournament was one of the most prestigious events in Harry Potter’s Wizarding World - here’s how it began and why it ended. The magical contest took place in Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire. The conclusion of the Triwizard Tournament during Harry’s fourth year at Hogwarts marked a turning point for the series. The first Triwizard Tournament supposedly took place in the late 13th century.

Just a few weeks ago, Pandora became the latest app to receive support for streaming via the Chromecast, as did Hulu Plus just before that.

HBO Go has been rumored as coming to the Chromecast since the device’s launch, with HBO confirming earlier this summer that it was in talks to support the Chromecast in the “future.” It now looks as if the launch is not very far off....

A deleted scene from Hellbound: Hellraiser 2 put Pinhead and the Female Cenobite in surgical scrubs, but went missing for decades, intriguing fans. When it comes to horror sequels, the general rule is that they don’t measure up the original. To be fair, that’s also true of most movie sequels in general. It’s hard to recapture the magic that made something a hit the first time. Yet, 1988 sequel Hellbound: Hellraiser 2 is, depending on who one talks to, just as good if not better than Clive Barker’s original Hellraiser film....

With the unique Wizarding World of Harry Potter, British writer J.K. Rowling managed to successfully cement herself as one of the most beloved authors of all time. The amount of research and creativity that went into the series is mind-boggling, which explains why, over 20 years since the first book was released, the Harry Potter franchise is as popular as ever. As a book that finally ties the entire Harry Potter story together and provides fans with satisfactory closure, Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows was the most anticipated and lauded installment of the franchise and was subsequently split into two movies....

Warning: SPOILERS Below For Folklore! HBO’s horror anthology series, Folklore, examines Asian superstitions and national folkloric myths - and the endings for each horror segment are just as confounding as the ones before. Created by HBO Asia, Folklore’s six episodes each feature directors from different countries - Indonesia, Japan, Korea, Malaysia, Singapore, and Thailand. While Folklore’s collective cast and crew are perhaps unfamiliar to Western viewers, the anthology is very much worth watching, as it allows the audience to engage with the stories, and to understand the conceptual links, including the superstitions that plague each of the aforementioned countries....

The Hellboy reboot bombed at the box office during its opening weekend, but why did that happen? Opening in theaters this past weekend, the film looked to give the property a fresh start on the big screen. Guillermo del Toro helmed two Hellboy movies starring Ron Perlman in the mid-2000s, but a third installment never materialized. Instead, David Harbour was brought in to headline a new, R-rated interpretation directed by Neil Marshall....
