He might have conquered the Dark Lord in his own respective fantasy universe, but Harry Potter is by no means the most brilliant character in his franchise. Most of this is thanks to his age– for most of the books and the films, we usually see Harry in a stage of his life where his life choices don’t make sense and everything he does is nearly a mistake. This is called puberty....
The Harry Potter universe taught readers and viewers about many events and elements from the Wizarding World, and one of the most intense (and obscure) parts from it are the horcruxes and how they’re made. This process and its objects are linked to Lord Voldemort himself, the only known wizard to successfully create more than one horcrux. The Harry Potter books and films came to an end years ago, but there’s still a lot of mystery surrounding the horcruxes and their creation....

Actor Jon Lithgow has joined HBO’s Perry Mason. Based on Erle Stanley Gardner’s famous character, the miniseries stars The Americans’ Matthew Rhys in the title role. The HBO adaptation is co-produced by Robert Downey Jr. and Susan Downey, otherwise known as Team Downey (The Voyage of Doctor Dolittle). In 1933, Gardner introduced Perry Mason in The Case of the Velvet Claws. Forty years later, the author’s version of the criminal defense lawyer appeared for the last time in The Case of the Postponed Murder....
HBO’s Watchmen TV series follows on from the original 1980s comic, but fundamentally changes how its ending works. The finale of Alan Moore’s Watchmen story sees Ozymandias succeed in unleashing a genetically engineered monster in New York City, staging an attack on humanity that he believes will ultimately lead to peace on Earth. Nite Owl and Silk Spectre fail to prevent the incident and admit defeat in each other’s arms, Dr....
2018’s Cannes Lions International Festival of Creativity has just wrapped up, and all of the award winners have been announced. Apple has historically had a significant presence at the festival, but this year represented one of their strongest showings in recent memory.

Although the dark mode for OS X Yosemite that Apple previewed onstage at WWDC two weeks ago hasn’t officially made it into any build of Yosemite as of today, developer Hamza Sood has figured out a Terminal command which will let you get a taste of OS X’s dark mode now: Just paste the line below into Terminal, and log out of your account. After logging back in, you’ll see that the Dock, Menu Bar, and corresponding menus all take on the new dark theme....
As the iPhone 8 is rumored to add at least one new finish this year, a new patent describes Apple’s efforts to create a strong, translucent body style. As noted by CNBC, the patent depicts an “optically reflective layer” that makes for a metallic-like casing for smartphones and laptops. As with all patents, this one is a bit vague when it comes to where and how the technology could be implemented, but nevertheless the patent explains the process of combining a reflective, mirror-like layer with the surface of a translucent layer:...

After what seemed like years of fans demanding to see more female faces in high-profile (and varied) roles in the growing genre of superhero blockbusters, the DC Extended Universe wasted no time. Not only has Wonder Woman shown up to rescue the stars of Batman V Superman: Dawn of Justice, but Harley Quinn is emerging as a fan-favorite in Suicide Squad’s marketing. Apparently, actress Margot Robbie and director David Ayer have made such progress with ’the Joker’s girlfriend’ already, the studio is looking to make her the star of a spinoff film, calling on some of the DC Universe’s best femme fatales (both heroes and villains)....
A Get Out parody poster inspired by Prince Harry and Meghan Markle’s decision to step back from their positions as senior members of the British Royal Family is making the rounds online. The one-sheet has been slowly garnering interest and is quite now a popular talking point in various digital communities. It has been three years the couple’s relationship was officially confirmed, effectively ending Meghan’s acting career. She subsequently left USA Network’s Suits where she played the law firm’s paralegal Rachel Zane since the show’s inception....
Prince Harry and Meghan Markle were spotted in Miami for their first public outing since they decided to leave the Royal Family behind. The royal couple has since been laying low in Canada as they waited for the controversy to die down. It was announced on January 8th that Prince Harry and Markle would be stepping back from the senior royal duties and the public eye to try and live a more normal life....
Draco Malfoy is one of the most memorable secondary characters in the Harry Potter movies and books. It may be due to his irredeemable and despicable behaviour,as everyone loves a good villain. It could also be the appeal of actor Tom Felton in the movies, and all the subsequent fan fiction they have produced. However, not a lot is revealed about him in the books, and less even less is shown on screen, leaving him a mystery....
Throughout the course of the Harry Potter series, the wizard lived at various different locations, moving from place to place depending on his circumstances, with Potter never having a true ‘home’ as such, mainly due to the fact he was an orphan. While you might think that the main character of a monumental franchise like this would have lived in amazing places during his lifetime, that really isn’t the case. After all, Harry himself really is put through the wringer throughout his life, suffering a lot of ups and downs....
In 2023, US users will have HBO Max and Discovery+ as one streaming service. The announcement was known for a few months, but during Warner Bros. Discovery Q2 earnings call, the company revealed a few more things Variety reported the announcement with the timeline of this merge. According to JB Perrette, CEO and president of global streaming and games for Warner Bros: While the new name is unclear, since the company is still “doing research on consumer perception of the HBO Max name,” Warner Bros said its initial focus is on the ad-supported and ad-free versions of the combined streaming services....
Deadwood: The Movie has arrived more than a decade after HBO’s original show last aired, and provides a fittingly poignant ending to the series. Created by David Milch, the Deadwood TV series aired for three seasons from 2004-06, and earned critical acclaim (along with several awards) for its profanity-laced, yet Shakespearean dialogue, rich performances, and sharp attention to historical detail. The show took place in South Dakota’s Deadwood settlement circa the 1870s, and revolved around the various characters who lived there (ranging from fictional people to real-life historical figures like Wild Bill Hickock and Calamity Jane)....
Hearthstone is celebrating the launch of its newest expansion, Rastakhan’s Rumble, with a brand new single-player mode called Rumble Run.

Hearthstone has been a wildly successful online collectible card game for years now, dating back to an open beta period in 2014 that garnered the interest of millions of gamers worldwide....
Here’s why Hell On Wheels recast Naomi Bohannon for season 4. Hell On Wheels is an acclaimed AMC Western series that debuted in 2011. The show stars Anson Mount (Star Trek: Discovery) as Cullen, a former Confederate soldier seeking revenge for his murdered wife and child. The role was something of a breakthrough for Mount, who previously appeared in various movies and TV shows like Jason Statham’s Safe, Non-Stop and Dollhouse....
Hellblade: Senua’s Sacrifice is something remarkable from a developer known for taking risks. Ninja Theory has not always chosen the easy route with its projects, as seen with imaginative cult classic Enslaved: Odyssey to the West and the divisive character choices in its 2013 Devil May Cry entry. However, Hellblade: Senua’s Sacrifice is the boldest release of the lot, launching independently of an external publisher and delving deep into themes rarely discussed in video games....
