Zack Snyder’s vision for a DC cinematic universe adopted a far darker take on the iconic comic book characters, with running themes regarding the nature of great power, human fear over the unknown, and loss. The “Epilogue” sequence in Zack Snyder’s Justice League went so far as to confirm that, had Snyder continued in his position at DC, the culmination of his vision would have been an adaptation of the “Injustice” storyline.

Marvel’s Iron Man IP has never been more successful than its reign and existence within the cinematic adaptation of the comic book franchise.

However, all of that comes to a standstill when one learns how the MCU fandom was to be robbed of all the tantrums, snark, humor, and heroism…

While spinoffs could be lucrative, the dark comedy’s peculiarity has much to do with Wednesday as a character, making them ultimately pointless. Netflix’s Wednesday and the Addams Family world it brought back to the small screen proved so successful that it warranted talks about potential spinoffs, however, a Wednesday spinoff would misconstrue why the Netflix crime mystery TV show works. Released on November 23, Wednesday ended up being both critically acclaimed and widely watched, being streamed for more than a billion hours and occupying the top spot of the Global Top 10 TV shows in English for four weeks and counting. Still, talks about Wednesday spinoffs seem premature and could…

So, does Raimi have a time machine, or is it just a coincidence that makes it look like it’s all been planned out? Marvel’s Spider-Man: No Way Home has toyed with the idea of the multiverse just enough to both grant the greatest fan service it ever could and spark heated debates on how all these separate timelines are connected. But while there are tons of potential plot holes and inconsistencies, there is also at least one amazing coincidence that makes No Way Home work perfectly… as a sequel to a movie that was made almost two decades ago. One Reddit…

The third installment in the Captain America franchise was originally based on a completely different Marvel storyline, but Kevin Feige turned it down for not being “big enough.” Captain America: Civil War has become one of the biggest and most successful Marvel projects. The movie revolves around a conflict between major MCU superheroes over a superhero registration act. It basically puts Captain America against Iron Man at the same time introducing such important superheroes as Black Panther and Spider-Man.

Thankfully, one debate which is popular this season, thanks to release of House of the Dragon and The Rings of Power, requires none of that. Who would win a fight between the Night King from Game of Thrones and the movie incarnation of Sauron from The Lord of the Rings…

The Westerosi world and the land of Essos have never been one to shy away from blood and gore. And it is only reasonable to assume that the prequel to Game of Thrones aka House of the Dragon will be tangentially more innovative when it comes to bloodbaths and massacres than the events that take place 200 years later. However, as far as the plots of Season 1 of the prequel spin-off go, there have been a handful of shock factors and a whole lot of family drama. But now, the series showrunner, Sara Hess, has finally promised the fans some action and it…

For months, the DC drama has taken up center stage in the unfolding saga between the CBM franchise and the people who constitute its fandom. However, what has since constituted one of the most divisive battles was James Gunn’s back and forth with Dwayne “The Rock” Johnson in the time succeeding the former’s appointment as the CEO of the new DC Studios. Now, with Henry Cavill’s Superman gone, the fandom seeks a reasonable answer as to why The Rock’s film would lead to the fandom witnessing the complete annihilation of the SnyderVerse in the hands of DCU Chief, James Gunn.…
