Steve Rogers’ best friend Bucky Barnes made his debut in the Marvel Cinematic Universe in Captain America: The First Avenger, and came back in full super soldier mode in Captain America: The Winter Soldier, which established him as a dangerous threat but also a powerful potential ally. However, his following appearances in the MCU didn’t carry on with this, and Marvel seems to have forgotten that Bucky is capable of doing as much as his best friend....

You don’t have to look hard to find giant universe-spanning Marvel crossovers. The various Avengers titles alone bring together heroes from all over the galaxy on a regular basis. However, writer Kurt Busiek and artist Yildiray Cinar are collaborating on a new series that promises to go beyond what readers have seen before. The Marvels is a new series and a spiritual follow-up of sorts to Marvels (a limited series first published in 1994) and it’s spin-offs and sequels such as Marvels X and Marvels: Epilogue....

Matt Damon turned down Avatar – and it cost him millions. Throughout the star’s career, Damon has had numerous notable success stories - particularly his Oscar for Good Will Hunting’s screenplay, which he shared with Ben Affleck in 1997. From that point onward, it seemed that Damon’s name became synonymous with box office hits and critical acclaim. The mid to late 1990s were a particularly important time for the famed Boston native, whose turns in the aforementioned Good Will Hunting, as well as Francis Ford Coppola’s The Rainmaker, Saving Private Ryan and The Talented Mr....

Matthew McConaughey has one of the more versatile careers of a Hollywood leading actor. Though he can sometimes get boxed into a certain genre or become typecast as a certain type of character, he has proven that he has a wide range. Looking at his filmography, there is a collection of films ranging from silly comedies to hard-hitting dramas. While some fans might prefer a certain type of McConaughey role, he has been excellent in both comedies and dramas....

Action movies are loved for their explosions, charismatic characters, endless action scenes, and so much more. Of course, they often have stupid dialogue, but that can be ignored if you are a fan of action movies. Likewise, one of the greatest things such movies bring is the abundance of great characters. From John Wick and Ethan Hunt to Sarah Connor and Ellen Ripley, there is no shortage of action movie heroes....

For those who don’t know, the Myers-Briggs® Type Indicator categorizes people based on their personalities. While, of course, people are unique individuals who can’t be fit into perfect little boxes, we have found that these types can be pretty accurate; everyone should identify with one type over the others - and even characters from television shows like The Good Place can be categorized by this indicator! The Good Place is a comedy series with a unique plot, and it stars some big names as some truly memorable characters....

Iconic actor Mark Hamill thanked Star Wars fans in a newly released box set letter. Best known for his portrayal of Luke Skywalker, Hamill has been with Star Wars from the beginning, playing the optimistic Jedi to be in A New Hope when it was released in 1977 to ending his story in The Rise of Skywalker as a Force Ghost. Although the epic Skywalker Saga technically came to a close with Rey finally defeating Palpatine once and for all doesn’t necessarily mean that fans will close their hearts to the story of the Skywalkers and their friends and family....

When you’re using headphones for studio production, you want cans that reproduce the sound exactly as it’s being recorded – nothing added, nothing changed, nothing taken away. That’s a preference many of us share outside the studio, and what monitor headphones are all about. Marshall has today launched a wireless version of its top-of-the-range Monitor headphones. They retain the look, feel and controls of the original: a very traditional-looking black vinyl casing, black aluminum fittings and that single brass joystick control: move up/down for volume, left/right for previous/next track and press for pause/play and to accept/end phone calls....

Warning: SPOILERS for Marauders #8 Sebastian Shaw has welcomed actual Nazis to the X-Men’s mutant nation. Jonathan Hickman’s X-Men relaunch has seen the world’s mutants gather on the living island of Krakoa. There, the X-Men have established a sanctuary and a stronghold, striking an agreement with the United Nations that every past mutant crime would be forgotten. The problem with this amnesty, and indeed with the entire idea of Krakoa, is that the X-Men are welcoming some of the most dangerous villains on the planet....

Director Matt Reeves’ The Batman is set to take fans back to the dreaded Arkham Asylum. Viewers have visited the iconic house for the criminally insane in various live-action incarnations of the Caped Crusader over the years, going way back to the not so fondly remembered Joel Schumacher directed movies of the 90s: Batman Forever and Batman & Robin. While those interpretations may be better off forgotten, the Gothic insane asylum has also been seen in Christopher Nolan’s revered Dark Knight trilogy, as well as Fox’s Gotham TV show....

Earlier this month, Mary Magdalene finally received an April release date, this coming after a turbulent distribution journey after the film initially premiered in February 2018. In the canonical gospels, Mary Magdalene is referenced more than Jesus’ apostles, and the film chronicles her unique relationship with the founder of Christianity, as she allegedly witnessed his crucifixion, burial, and resurrection....

As fans gear up for week 5 of The Masked Singer, there are 11 contestants left whose identities have yet to be revealed. The internet has done well with guessing in the past, and so far, this year is no different. This season, the clues have been slightly more vague in an attempt to keep fans guessing. However, with the internet at their disposal, fans are still coming through with some excellent guesses....

Apple’s latest major Mac operating system, macOS High Sierra, has seen more than its fair share of bugs. These aren’t minor bugs, either. Previously, there was a bug that allowed any user root access to your Mac because the system accepted a blank password attempt. Yet another security bug has been found in the operating system that allows users to access the passwords to encrypted APFS external drives. While not as simple nor obvious as the root bug, passwords can be revealed with a simple Terminal command as of macOS 10....

When macOS Mojave is released later this fall, the operating system update will drop support for the Back to My Mac iCloud feature that lets you network with other Macs remotely. In place of Back to My Mac, Apple recommends iCloud Drive, screen sharing, and Apple Remote Desktop. Back to My Mac has been absent in macOS Mojave developer and public betas, and Apple details the transition in a support document dated earlier this month....

The entire 7 seasons of Malcolm in the Middle were not enough time to grasp how the mind of Reese Wilkerson (brilliantly portrayed by Justin Berfield) works. Sure, he’s a dimwitted bully and a childish troublemaker with no sense of moral judgment whatsoever and decisions that would baffle even the most open-minded individuals. But it’s his hyperbolized dimwittedness that, juxtaposed with his brilliant brothers, helps give this show such a powerful entertainment factor....

If you grew up in the nineties, there were not one but three different Kelly’s to worship as TV goddesses. The Kelly Next Door—Kelly Kapowski on Saved By The Bell, The Spoiled Brat Kelly—Kelly Taylor on Beverly Hills, 90210. Lastly, but certainly not least, there was the Funny Vixen Kelly, Kelly Bundy on Married…With Children. Played by Christina Applegate, Kelly instantly became a breakout star of the show. Her entrances on the show were always met with raucous applause from the studio audience....
