Deadpool’s legendary love of spicy snacks has been placed front and center in a new randomized toy line from Hasbro. Officially known as Deadpool Chimichanga Surprise With Mystery Filling, the new line was unveiled at San Diego Comic-Con 2018. It is poised to officially launch later this year - just in time for the release of Deadpool 2 on digital download and Blu-ray. As fellow mercenary Outlaw once noted in the comics, if there’s two things in this world that Wade Wilson likes, it’s “Tex-Mex and boobs....

Hang on to your hats, horror fans: the creator of The Haunting of Hill House says that season 2, The Haunting of Bly Manor, is scarier than season 1. The Haunting of Hill House was such a success for Netflix that the streaming service decided to turn it into an anthology series, with each season telling a new story. Season 2 of the series is The Haunting of Bly Manor, based on the 1898 Henry James novel The Turn of the Screw....

No one likes waiting for devices to charge or overly large charging bricks. With the new Spigen ArcStation™ Pro GaN wall charger line-up, it’s easier to pack the power you need without lugging around a huge power brick. With hardware that runs cooler at a higher wattage in a much smaller package, the GaN wall chargers are great for packing along in a tech bag. In the ArcStation™ Pro GaN line-up, there are three different chargers to choose from....

After defeating Lord Voldemort at the Battle of Hogwarts in Deathly Hallows: Part 2, Harry Potter goes on to fulfill his dream of being an Auror. He was first given the idea of becoming somebody who fights against dark wizards by Death Eater Barty Crouch. Jr but, despite that, he still proceeds to forge a name for himself in one of the most difficult jobs in the wizarding world. Of his classmates, only Neville Longbottom (as far we know) becomes a teacher, succeeding Professor Sprout as head of Herbology....

As much as we’d like to delve in deep to the magic of Harry Potter, we won’t be adding every single entry from The Standard Book of Spells to our ranking of the strongest spells in the wizarding world. For the sake of brevity, we decided to omit some of the more unusual spells as well. Sorry, no Orchideous (to summon a bouquet of flowers) or Tarantallegra (to forcibly make one dance) here!...

HBO releases the first trailer for season 3 of Room 104, showing the unexpected places where the anthology series from Marc and Jay Duplass is headed. The series is part of the pay cabler’s more experimental late Friday night lineup that includes the animated series Animal (also from the Duplass brothers), as well as the very good Wyatt Cenac’s Problem Areas, the new A Black Lady Sketch Show, and High Maintenance, which recently made the move to Sunday nights....

Hellraiser: Judgment features a new Pinhead actor with an altered wardrobe, one that features a subtle but clear tribute to Doctor Strange. After 2011’s Hellraiser: Revelations, often considered the bottom of the barrel when it comes to direct to video horror sequels, the franchise Clive Barker created was in desperate need of a cinematic rebirth. It looks to be getting that soon from Spyglass Entertainment, in the form of a reboot being written by The Dark Knight’s David S....

So, the iPod classic… Today brought us the news of the removal of the iPod click wheel games from the iTunes Store. Even casual observers ask themselves whether that’s another clue of the beleaguered music player heading to the technology graveyard. Last week, reports indicated that both the iPod classic and the nano are heading out to pasture. The current sixth-generation iPod classic has certainly seen better days. It was last refreshed two years ago and Apple had totally ignored it with last Fall’s redesign of the iPod family....

Harry Potter is a delightful world full of wonderful magic, fun charms, and clever items. However, there’s also a darker side to this world. Dark wizards, killing curses, jinxes, and dangerous potions. It would seem that the Ministry of Magic isn’t as strict as one might imagine. There are several spells and potions out there should probably be made illegal. And yet they’re not. Some are even taught to school-children! It certainly makes you wonder....

Hagrid and Harry Potter are considered one of the most important friendships in the Harry Potter franchise. Hagrid is one of the first people to introduce Harry to the magical world and is consistently there for him throughout, or is he? This article takes a different position on the infamous relationship. What if Harry and Hagrid weren’t such good friends after all? Hagrid Forced Harry To Take Care Of A Giant After Hagrid brought back his half-brother, Grawp, and hid him away in the Forbidden Forest, he did the only thing he could think of before being carted off by Umbridge – he requested that Harry and Hermione take care of Grawp....

In order to combat Voldemort and his followers, Albus Dumbledore created the Order of the Phoenix during the First Wizarding War. The secret society was integral to defeating the evil lord at the cost of losing many of their members. At the end of Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire, rising from the ashes much like their namesake, the Order of the Phoenix was born again under Dumbledore’s direction. Learning from the past and faced with new challenges, they once again fought and defeated Voldemort’s army, but not without their share of casualties....

Henry Cavill has most recently been seen kicking all kinds of butt in the new Netflix fantasy series The Witcher. But while the series has been a great vehicle for Cavill, he’s also managed to build a very impressive film career in a short time. Cavill worked his way from supporting roles in big and small films to becoming a leading man and a superhero, as well as one of the most exciting new action stars in the business....

There is no doubt that Hagrid is one of the most beloved characters from the Harry Potter series. It seems there is not a bad bone in his body, and he acts as a real role model and a sounding board for Harry himself throughout the movies. The half-giant and half-human works as the gamekeeper and keeper of keys and grounds for Hogwarts school, and Hagrid, for all his flaws, always does his best by the school and its pupils....

WarnerMedia says that the app has been “rebuilt on its next-generation platform,” promising improved stability, new features, and faster performance.

Catherine Hardwicke is set to direct the upcoming adaptation of comic series Heathen, the creation of writer and artist Natasha Alterici (with lettering by Rachel Deering). The adaptation of the female-fronted Viking saga Heathen was first announced in April last year, and the slowly turning cogs of the Hollywood machine have finally churned around to pushing the project forward. Heathen tells the story of Aydis, a Viking warrior cast out from her village after she is caught kissing another woman....

While the Wizarding World is different from our own in many ways, the emphasis on education remains a constant. For seven years, students at Hogwarts are taught the basis of magic, transitioning straight into a field of industry they’re passionate about. This training comes from their Professors, who guide them through their magical education. While many of the professors at Hogwarts are skilled magic users and educators, there is often a severe lapse in judgment when it comes to the care of their students....

Despite the presence of Death Eaters and other similarly vile wizards, long-time Hogwarts professor Severus Snape might be one of the most controversial characters from the Harry Potter universe. While some people love him and his redemption arc, others can’t stand him and don’t think it was right to make him into a hero. Whether you love him or hate him, there’s no denying that there were some things Snape did in the series that were far from good....

There are so many amazing creatures within the Harry Potter books and films. Some are seen briefly, during magical moments, while others are around quite often and play pretty big roles. In this list right here, we will be ranking the top creatures from this story. We will take into consideration what they do, how they look, their interactions with those around them and, of course, the adorable factor (since cuteness goes a long way)....
