Prejudiced and malicious to the bone, Death Eaters are the faction that make up Voldemort’s fanatical following. Fans of the Harry Potter film franchise became acquainted with these villains around the time of Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire. The first sightings of this group in the films came during the scene where Harry and the Weasleys attend the Quidditch World Cup. After that, we see them performing various brazen criminal acts, as they work to do Voldemort’s bidding to take over the wizarding world....
It would be wrong to write Voldemort off as a one-dimensional villain. The Dark Lord may have been talented beyond his years during his time at Hogwarts, eventually transitioning into one of the most powerful wizards ever seen, but it wasn’t just his insane magical prowess that made him so strong. It was also his ability to manipulate those unlucky enough to cross his path. With that in mind, we now take a look at the characters from the eight Harry Potter movies who Tom Riddle was able to make fall under his spell - literally....
When both the book and film versions of Harry Potter and the Philosopher’s Stone were released, no one could have predicted the level of success that they or the rest of the Harry Potter saga would achieve. But it’s easy to see why so many children and adults immediately fell in love with the story of Harry Potter and the Philosopher’s Stone. The first tale of Harry Potter that J.K. Rowling wove was a story that was thrilling and mysterious, and it revolved around a cast of characters that were very intriguing and relatable....
A new adaptation of Stephen King’s The Dark Half is in the works at MGM. Released in 1989, the novel tells the story of Thad Beaumont. A recovering alcoholic, Thad has a duplicitous professional career. While he has some success as an author under his real name, it’s the series he publishes under a pseudonym that’s truly a runaway hit. Under the alias of ‘George Stark’, Thad publishes popular novels about the life of a fictional serial killer....

Harry Potter is one of the most universally beloved fandoms/franchises of all time. Fans across the globe have found role models and reflections of themselves and their loved ones in some of the more iconic series. But not all of the characters in the series have been seen in such a positive light by all who read the books and watch the films. Though many fans have rather controversial opinions on some of the main characters in the Harry Potter series (i....
The Ron Weasley in the books versus the Ron Weasley in the movies is quite different in many ways. While there are many similarities between both versions of the Harry Potter character, fans have noted that many things about Ron’s personality were changed for the movies. While, of course, some moments and scenes can’t be translated from book to screen or need to be cut out for time, many feel that Ron’s characterization was changed too much....
The Harry Potter series, despite initially being created for young children across the globe, contained quite the body count. The first three movies and books pass relatively nicely, with just Professor Quirrell meeting his demise in the Sorcerer’s Stone. But, when Lord Voldemort returns in the Goblet of Fire, that spells the end for many characters within JK Rowling’s franchise. Some deaths, however, could have been avoided had the characters made better decisions - or not been subject to trickery....
Of all of the families from the Harry Potter series, the Weasley family might be one of, if not the most heroic of all. Almost all of the members of the Weasley family show the Gryffindor traits of bravery and courage many times in their lives. As a family and as individuals they can be rather heroic and are always trying to do the right thing, especially in the fight against Voldemort and his followers....
The Black Widow trailer has taken fans of the MCU by storm, offering several new looks into Natasha Romanov’s past. That includes her self-described ‘family’ of Russian agents, including Red Guardian, played by actor David Harbour. But comparing him to the comics, it seems Marvel Studios may have already changed him from his comic book origins – erasing his marriage with Natasha, as well. In the Black Widow trailer itself, Natasha reunites with a few old allies previously unseen in the MCU....
As Apple’s acquisition of Beats Electronics and Beats Music nears completion this financial quarter, the Cupertino and Culver City, California-based companies have begun work on transitioning select employees and technology resources from Beats to Apple, according to sources briefed on the transition. Apple executives have visited Beats’ Southern California headquarters this week and last week to offer groups of employees positions at Apple and to notify some members of the Beats staff that they will not be included in the transition....
SPOILERS for Hellraiser: Judgment ahead! - Hellraiser: Judgment writer/director Gary J. Tunnicliffe feels the movie’s surprise ending could lead to one Hell of a clash in a possible sequel. While Pinhead may be an iconic figure among horror fans, the Hellraiser series was never as mainstream as rival franchises, including Halloween and Friday The 13th. In fact, the series has been going direct to video since 2000’s Hellraiser: Inferno - which also marked the debut feature of Doctor Strange director Scott Derrickson....

Now here’s some worse news. Blocking what your cameras see is one thing, but hackers can also use them to enter your network. And it’s not only cameras. We’ll show you how to secure your most vulnerable devices....
One other device that was presented at MWC 2013 by ASUS was the Fonepad, which, I’m sad to say, it didn’t impress too much. I find it ridiculous to talk with such a big device, unless you use wireless headphones. From the get-go, the ASUS Fonepad looked like a Nexus 7 or like the Asus MeMo Pad but with a face lift. We (technology journalists) might perceive the differences between these 7-inchers but there’s a high risk that consumers will judge only by the final selling price....
According to Michael Douglas, Hank Pym is furious at Scott Lang for exposing his shrinking suit to the rest of the Avengers in Captain America: Civil War. Directed by Peyton Reed, Ant-Man & The Wasp will see the return of Marvel’s favorite shrinking hero, but this time, he’s joined by Hope van Dyne as The Wasp. Together, the two must stop a mysterious villain, Ghost, and attempt to save Janet van Dyne - the Pym matriarch and the original Wasp - from the Quantum Realm....
Dumbledore’s Army featured heavily in both the book and movie versions of Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix. While the movies showed most of the key moments from the books, there wasn’t enough time to portray all the details. So, while the movies hit all of the essential scenes, there are many smaller moments and interesting things about Dumbledore’s Army that didn’t make the cut. For those who haven’t read the books (it’s not a crime, you know), here are some background facts and extra tidbits about Dumbledore’s Army that the movies left out....
Ravenclaw is known for being the Harry Potter house that is centered around intellect and intelligence. Members of this Hogwarts house are all about the pursuit of knowledge. This is why many people think that Hermione would be great in Ravenclaw, and she likely would have. While Ravenclaw might be all about learning, this doesn’t mean that everyone in the house has the same grades. There are different kinds of intelligence and many different kinds of knowledge in the world....
Marvel Studios may have only just released Doctor Strange two weeks ago, but as they must do with their cinematic universe, they must keep things moving. Production on all three of their 2017 releases, Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 2, Spider-Man: Homecoming, and Thor: Ragnarok, have already wrapped. This leaves Black Panther as the next film on their slate not yet in production, but with director Ryan Coogler and his talented cast not set to start until early 2017, Marvel appeared to have a blank spot in their filming schedule....
HBO has opted to pass on this year’s San Diego Comic-Con when it comes to the two heaviest-hitters in its line-up, Game of Thrones and Westworld. Whereas fans are typically able to take advantage of both series’ star-studded panels and autograph opportunities each year at SDCC, the convention’s Hall H will have to go without HBO’s presence this year. The world-famous San Diego Comic-Con at the San Diego Convention Center typically draws huge crowds due, in part, to the presence of such popular series as Game of Thrones and Westworld....
