Doctor Strange in the Multiverse of Madness is set to be Marvel Studios’ next big Avengers-level blockbuster, following up on the chaos of Spider-Man: No Way Home. Alongside the return of Benedict Cumberbatch’s sorcerer, Elizabeth Olsen’s Scarlet Witch, and all the Multiversal cameos promised, Xochitl Gomez will be making her MCU debut as the MCU’s latest young hero, America Chavez.

For anyone who enjoys wandering out onto coastal flats during low-tide to explore the terrain, Britain’s Broomway has all the appearances of the perfect gateway. The tidal foot path, so-named for the hundreds of broomsticks that once marked its boundaries, has for nearly 600 years provided access from Essex, England to the farming communities of nearby Foulness Island. The Broomway, however, is more dangerous than its name implies. In fact, the more you explore the natural nightmares surrounding this 6-mile-long path, the more it begins to sound like something straight out of “The Princess Bride....

One of the most iconic locations in the Marvel Cinematic Universe was the God of Thunder’s home, Asgard. It appeared in the first three Thor movies, and with each appearance, the city became more beautiful to behold. Sadly, the unthinkable happened: Midgard’s Avengers let Surtur destroy the entire realm to take down his evil sister Hela. The next time audiences see the home of the Asgardians is in Avengers: Endgame, when Hulk and Rocket arrive in New Asgard to recruit Chris Hemsworth’s depressed God....

Ever since TreeHugger started, we have argued about Buy Nothing Day. It is all about doing something other than shopping: But is this really a good thing? My first thoughts years ago were “nice idea, if you don’t work in a shop.” And then my kids were in school; now they both work in shops. They need people buying cheese and coffee. Then there are the good things one can buy; TreeHugger emeritus Warren wrote a dozen years ago:...

When Jamie Foxx was announced to be returning as Electro in Marvel Studios’ Spider-Man 3, it threw fans off. Why would Foxx’s villain from The Amazing Spider-Man 2 be appearing in the MCU? Foxx later confirmed and implied that his villain would have a completely different design, which only confused fans more. The confusion was heightened when news broke of Benedict Cumberbatch joining Spider-Man 3, leading fans to think that something big was happening with this next Spider-Man installment....

The currently untitled Spider-Man 3, starring Tom Holland, has been the subject of headlines in the past months, all thanks to notable casting additions that surfaced about the threequel. Aside from the returning main cast members, it was previously reported that Jamie Foxx will reprise his role as Electro in the third installment after playing the villain in Marc Webb’s The Amazing Spider-Man franchise. However, the actor played coy about the rumor, admitting that he “can’t speak” regarding the matter....

Whether it’s laundry or dishes, turn down the dial for environmental savings and gleaming results. It is a discussion we’ve been having on this website since its inception more than a decade ago: Does cold water clean as well as hot? Back in 2008, Collin Dunn wrote that pushing the ‘hot’ button on your washing machine was equivalent to driving 9 miles in a car. In 2011, John Laumer argued that refusal to use cold water is “bad for our budgets as well as the environment” and that, unless you’re a car mechanic, you don’t need hot water for everyday washing....

Just as it was initially reported several months back, it seems like Marvel Studios does fully intend on productions beginning again in September. For instance, crew began returning to the set of Shang-Chi and the Legend of the Ten Rings to finish construction, which was followed by multiple actors returning to set too, including star Simu Liu. While it seems more than likely that shows like The Falcon and the Winter Soldier will have its release delayed to 2021, production looks to be gearing up to begin again for all other shows, including WandaVision....

He previously shared how they’ve “floated around” ideas for a third film.

As Ant-Man and The Wasp: Quantumania quickly approaches its February 17 release date, one of the minds behind the MCU epic broke down what went into the CGI and VFX on the film. With Ant-Man 3 taking audiences to the Quantum Realm, the MCU threequel has had to rely on largely computer-generated elements, something which has garnered criticism amongst fans.After the latest Quantumania trailer, Twitter was quickly awash with complaints about how the movie looked....

That said, the delay of a Season 2 announcement has led to concern from its diehard viewers....

Disney+ has been experiencing incredible success ever since its launch in 2019, and this was mostly due to the influx of content from Star Wars and the Marvel Cinematic Universe. Marvel Studios president Kevin Feige confirmed that streaming for the studio is “100 percent the future,” which was further proven by the consistent arrival of small screen projects, such as Loki and Moon Knight. However, one discussion point that fans have been talking about is the renewal chances of these shows....

Dwayne Johnson has been hyping up his debut as Black Adam for a long while now. As many have probably heard, “the hierarchy of power in the DC Universe is about to change” when Black Adam arrives, and it seems The Rock will be the new guy at the top. As great as it’ll be to see Black Adam brought to life for the first time on screen, there’s a whole other group who’ll be entering the fray as well during his theatrical debut: The Justice Society of America....

DC’s latest live-action movie Black Adam is poised to breathe new life into the franchise and move it in bold new directions, or so star Dwayne Johnson claims.Early reactions point to the film not being the blockbuster megahit that Warner Bros. was perhaps expecting it to be. Still, this has not deterred Johnson from tirelessly championing the movie and making a ton of lofty promises regarding the future of the DCEU....

The Marvel Cinematic Universe has come a long way in its 12-year journey, and it continues to evolve as it welcomes classic heroes back into the fold. Marvel’s early financial struggles are well-chronicled, resulting in the selling of film rights for various characters to different film studios. Now, slowly and slowly these characters are returning home to Marvel. As Thanos said, “Destiny arrives all the same.” Among those welcomed back was Ghost Rider, whose film rights reverted back to Marvel in 2013 after Johnny Blaze was portrayed by Nicholas Cage in Ghost Rider and its sequel Spirit of Vengeance, released by Sony and Columbia Pictures....

Nick Fury once told Steve Rogers, “Don’t trust anyone,” but he might as well have been speaking to Marvel Studios as a whole. From filming fake endings to firing those who let spoilers slip, the Marvel Cinematic Universe keeps their future plot details extremely close to the vest.

A dying tree in a forest is nature simply running its course and eventually giving back to its ecosystem. A dying tree in a well-landscaped yard, however, can pose problems for other trees and everything else around it. If you have trees near your home, it’s a good idea to keep an eye on their health and to take action if you think a tree is dying or dead. But first it’s important to be sure your tree is actually sick....
