It has already been revealed that the new version will be an “entirely new thing,” and this was supported by the various teases that Snyder shared previously. Ever since the official announcement of the Snyder Cut’s release last May, the visionary director has been providing interesting tidbits about what to expect for this new version....

Every thrilling superhero adventure has always had a little taste of romance - for Benedict Cumberbatch’s Stephen Strange, that came with Rachel McAdams’ Christine Palmer.

Hulk has long been pushed aside in the MCU as the green Avenger hasn’t starred in a solo outing since 2008’s The Incredible Hulk - in which he was played by Edward Norton. Marc Ruffalo has taken over as Bruce Banner for eight live-action appearances, but he has yet to take the solo spotlight again. To some degree, that all changes this year with She-Hulk. The nine-episode Disney+ legal comedy will star Tatiana Maslany as Jennifer Walters, the cousin of Bruce Banner who gets her own gamma green transformation after a blood transfusion....

For years, Marvel fans have wondered: when will the MCU introduce the mutants? The triumphant return was teased by Kevin Feige all the way back at San Diego Comic-Con 2019, with avid viewers only getting breadcrumbs for their arrival, like Charles Xavier’s return to the big screen in Doctor Strange in the Multiverse of Madness. Now it seems that Ms. Marvel’s finale has a key connection to the re-introduction of the X-Men....

One of the most anticipated Star Wars projects in a long time is just around the corner: Obi-Wan Kenobi. Sure, The Book of Boba Fett was exciting sometimes, but the discourse around Ewan McGregor’s return is immense. For years, audiences have been wanting to see Ewan McGregor return to his iconic role, and all it took for these dreams to come true was a streaming service.What should fans expect going into the six-episode story?...

The release of Lucasfilm’s next live-action Star Wars series, Obi-Wan Kenobi, is arriving faster than a fathier, dropping its first episode on Disney+ on May 27. The streaming show will, of course, bring perennial fan-favorite Ewan McGregor back to his most famous role as the titular Jedi-Master-in-exile. Not only that, but Hayden Christensen, who starred opposite McGregor for two films as his padawan-turned-enemy Anakin Skywalker, has joined the series and is suiting up as Darth Vader....

The finale of Obi-Wan Kenobi was recently released on Disney+, wrapping up Deborah Chow’s addition to the world of Star Wars. Even though Ewan McGregor, Hayden Christensen, and Moses Ingram were the headline actors for the series, others such as Vivien Lyra Blair, Jimmy Smits, and O’Shea Jackson Jr. also made their mark in the galaxy far, far away.The main focus of Obi-Wan Kenobi was to tell the story of the broken-down Jedi master after the events of Revenge of the Sith....

In early 2022, Warner Bros will be taking its first steps into expanding into the streaming sphere for the DC Extended Universe. This will come with John Cena’s solo Peacemaker series on HBO Max a direct follow-up to his first DC project, The Suicide Squad, from August 2021.Most of the plot for this show is still a mystery, particularly with The Suicide Squad’s post-credits scene having revealed that Peacemaker survived his tussle with Idris Elba’s Bloodsport....

Peacemaker had a stellar first season on HBO Max. The John Cena-led DCEU series picked up shortly after the events of The Suicide Squad, with the titular anti-hero being recruited for a mission to destroy an imminent invasion led by Project Butterflies. In addition to this dangerous bout, Peacemaker also tackled Christopher Smith’s intriguing backstory and family history, leading to the involvement of his dad, Auggie Smith. Peacemaker Season 1 ended on a high note, with the show completely resolving the Butterfly dilemma and exposing ARGUS to the world....

Fan mail from some experts who explain how fans make us feel cooler. Before air conditioning became common, fans were often used to keep the air moving, which cools people by evaporating sweat. I thought that was all they did, which is why I have quoted Green Curmudgeon Carl Seville, who says Ceiling fans are evil. He wrote in Green Building Advisor: That’s why it is pointless to have a fan on when nobody is in the room; then it is just generating heat from the motor, which is why they are evil – they are heating when you want cooling....

WandaVision is arguably the most original property to come out of the MCU yet. The sitcom-inspired Disney+ series put two of the most powerful Avengers into a suburban family lifestyle. As the era-spanning comedy placed Wanda and Vision into multiple time periods from the 1950s through to the 2000s in the fictional town of Westview, New Jersey. While parts of the show are shot on practical sets, CGI and VFX played a key role in the series, as would be expected for a big-budget Marvel production....

With streaming popularity at an all-time high and cable cord-cutters more prevalent than ever, traditional network television has become wildly inconsistent for advertisers. Despite the daily uncertainty about network TV viewership, there will always be one unwavering constant: Super Bowl Sunday. The NFL’s grandest stage averages well over 100 million viewers every year, making their typical three-hour time slot the most valuable real estate for advertisers across the world. While you can bank on products like Doritos and Bud Light to drop a new ad every first Sunday in February, big blockbuster films have proved to make a consistent splash in recent memory....

A garnet-colored, 100% polyester graduation gown and cap are on a chair in my bedroom. My son put them there the day after he graduated from high school in June because he didn’t know what to do with them. I don’t know what to do with them either. The school doesn’t take the gowns and caps back to reuse for the following year’s graduates. They’re meant to be keepsakes. But my son doesn’t want to keep it and I don’t want to keep it either....

The moody scene set by the steam rising off the surface of this sun-lit pond is a beautiful sight, and one that becomes more common when the weather shifts from warm summer sunrises to crisp, cold autumn mornings. The phenomenon goes by many names, including steam fog, evaporation fog, frost smoke and sea smoke. So what makes it happen? Meteorologist Barbara McNaught Watson explains, “Bodies of water, such as lakes, ponds, and rivers, are much slower to cool down than land areas are....

In the spring and summer, thoughts naturally turn to the birds and the bees. Except, the bee seems to be in trouble. You’ve probably heard about colony collapse disorder (CCD) or vanishing bee syndrome, the mysterious and rather dramatic die-off of domesticated honeybees in Europe and North America. Scientists aren’t really sure what’s going on yet. All that’s known for sure is our bee colonies are suddenly disappearing. Affected bees simply leave the hive and don’t come back, making diagnosis of the problem even more difficult....

What do you get when you cross a feather, a starfish and a fern? You get a sea pen, one of the funkiest critters in the ocean. Sea pens are so named for their quill-like shape, but they’re actually a form of soft coral (“octocoral”) composed of polyps that each have eight tentacles. Sea pens can set up camp pretty much anywhere — sand or rubble — and they add a colorful flair to any sea floor....

Andrew Garfield hasn’t held back his excitement about finally getting to play Spider-Man again after seven years away from the role, particularly with the chance to appear alongside both other live-action Spider-Man actors. But now, after the Multiverse officially became a reality within the MCU in Spider-Man: No Way Home, fans are already hoping to see him back for another round of action.Garfield’s comeback was what really pushed the hype train for this movie forward, thanks to his enthusiasm for playing the character in his two The Amazing Spider-Man movies in 2012 and 2014....

The many series’ that came out of the Marvel TV era are possibly the most controversial elements of the MCU. Marvel’s expansive live-action universe took its first foray into the episodic format with 2013’s premiere of Agents of SHIELD, an ABC show that centered around a new team of agents led by Clark Gregg’s Phil Coulson. Throughout its seven-season run, the adventures of the team made numerous connections to the wider Marvel universe, including tie-in episodes with many of the movies, and appearances from major characters like Nick Fury and Lady Sif....
