The entire wizarding world believes Harry is a delusional liar and the Ministry of Magic is also against him....
The most difficult role to play in the Harry Potter series would have to be that of Severus Snape, who was the most complex character out of all. Snape’s duplicitous nature was supplemented by his self-loathing and his hatred of everybody else; Harry more so than anyone. For this reason, Alan Rickman was one of the most beloved actors for fans as he ensured Snape’s character was done justice by nailing all the mannerisms of the man without fault....
The magical world of Harry Potter is a place so many of us Muggles wish we could visit for real. To explore the castle, learn the spells, concoct the potions, learn to play Quidditch… it would be a dream come true for millions of fans around the world. You’ve got to be careful what you wish for, though. Even something as simple as choosing an appropriate magical pet could be much more complex than it seems at first....
Although young Harry Potter was orphaned at the hands of Voldemort when he was still just a baby, he was lucky enough to have quite a few other adults in his life who eventually stepped up and took over the role of parent in his life. And everyone in his world contributed in different ways, but the clearest parental figure in his life was ultimately Albus Dumbledore, the headmaster at Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry....
Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows might have a hidden reference to the Peverell brothers from “The Tale of the Three Brothers”, with Voldemort, Severus Snape, and Harry Potter representing each one of the brothers, and Albus Dumbledore playing the role of Death. The Harry Potter book series began in 1997 with Harry Potter and the Philosopher’s Stone and came to an end ten years later with Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows....
Preacher is almost over, but it seems the series may have finally revealed God’s actual plan. Preacher has some big questions to wrap up heading into its series finale, including mysteries regarding God as well as God’s big plan for Jesse (and humanity as a whole). Jesse initially went in search of God, and then (having found him), he became increasingly annoyed with his creator’s mysterious ways. Throughout Preacher, God has been messing with Jesse, Cassidy, and Tulip - evading them, seeking them out, and conspiring with the Grail against them....
Archaeology may not have the most accurate representation in the media. Most people only know about this study of human history through swashbuckling heroes like Indiana Jones and Nathan Drake from the Uncharted series. Realistically, the job is far less glamorous; there’s no Nazi-face-melting or hanging from trains off the side of cliffs. It’s about uncovering an ancient civilization, decoding a forgotten language, and discovering how the past connects to the future....
Developers at Bethesda promise that players will not be able to harass each other in the upcoming Fallout 76. As the franchise’s first MMO, Fallout 76 will present a whole host of new opportunities but undoubtedly add another load of problems to the already sometimes glitchy series. One big question facing Bethesda is how to stop Plater vs Player bullying - thankfully- there is a solution. As Fallout 76 does away with NPCs and looks to only include robots, it means that the Wasteland will be nearly entirely populated by other Fallout fans....
Last fall Nanoleaf launched its latest HomeKit smart lights, the modular Lines. They feature an all-new form factor that makes it easy to create a custom aesthetic for your home, office, or any other space. Now the company has released slick matte black skin covers (matte pink too) to easily transform the white exterior of the lights. Nanoleaf Lines have become my favorite modular HomeKit lights with their clean and simple design....

Despite rumors to the contrary, director Christopher Landon has confirmed that there are no plans for a Happy Death Day 3 in the works. The first Happy Death Day film was released in 2017 and starred Jessica Rothe as college student Tree Gelbman, who is murdered on her birthday and finds herself stuck in a time loop and forced to relive the day of her death until she can discover the identity of her masked killer and prevent her own murder....
The latest issue of Batman: Curse of the White Knight has made history with its shocking twist to Bruce Wayne’s family history, but that’s just the beginning. Because it is also the issue in which Joker gets the death he always deserved… and Harley Quinn is the killer. While it would have been impossible to imagine Harley ever willingly killing the Joker in their first incarnations, the years have seen their bond evolve, transform, and more recently, dissolve completely in the canon of DC Comics....
Harry Potter fans love to debate whether or not Hermione Granger could have ever been happy with Ronald Weasley as a husband, and even J.K. Rowling herself has admitted there would be some dissatisfaction in the relationship. After writing in defense of the couple in the play, Harry Potter and the Cursed Child, Rowling reminded us of why it actually does work: because Ron Weasley often surprises us all. Sure, he loves nothing more than eating and being lazy with his friends, he sticks his foot in his mouth more often than not, and he’s sometimes as thick as one of Molly Weasley’s Christmas sweaters, but who hasn’t done those things?...
HomePod is making its mark on early adopters. Earlier this week, it was discovered that Apple’s HomePod can leave a white ring on certain wood finished furniture. While it’s unclear how widespread the issue is, Apple did acknowledge it in a support document, saying that it is not unusual for “vibration-dampening silicone” to leave marks. We’re curious: Have you noticed the HomePod leaving white rings on your furniture? Apple explains that the marks are caused by oils diffusing between the silicone base and the table surface in question....

Premiere Rush CC is Adobe’s new quick and easy video editing solution for online content creators. The cross-device app debuted today after an early preview this past June. We’ve detailed the announcement in a separate post here, but I’ve had some hands-on time with the new software over the past several days to see how it performs. To put Premiere Rush to the test, I attended an Art Walk at this year’s Adobe MAX conference held in conjunction with Adobe and Cartwheel Art of downtown Los Angeles....

It turns out Stranger Things is the reason that David Harbour was cast as Hellboy after all, at least if you ask him. The news came early last month - seemingly out of nowhere, and much to the shock, dismay, excitement, and every other emotional on the spectrum spectrum of longtime fans of the property - that the comic book character would be receiving another shot at life on the big screen in Hellboy: Rise of the Blood Queen....
In the world of Harry Potter and the First and Second Wizarding War, if Voldemort and the Death Eaters are the soldiers who fight for the dark side then the Order of the Phoenix are the warriors for the light. This secretive society made it their mission to destroy Voldemort once and for all, and it’s safe to say that they were a huge part of why the wizarding world managed to defeat Voldemort along with the dark wizards who followed him....
