The Flash movie has been making huge strides in building buzz for the long-awaited Barry Allen solo film. Besides the fact that the film would be loosely adapting elements from the acclaimed graphic novel Flashpoint, not much else was known about the plot’s details, or which other DC heroes may be featured in the film. Then, up went the Batsignal. It was previously confirmed that The Flash was attempting to secure Michael Keaton to reprise his Bruce Wayne for a supporting role in the film....

Supposedly, fans should start getting super excited for The Flash, as it’s not only testing well but also includes plenty of DCU Multiverse cameos, including, obviously, Michael Keaton’s Batman.The Flash has been quite the headache for Warner Bros up to this point. The movie’s lead, Ezra Miller, has been in more than a handful of news reports that bring up their name alongside words such as robbery, grooming, and cults.But the speedster isn’t the only character who has had trouble....

After WandaVision’s first two episodes premiered on Disney+ over the weekend, the MCU fandom jumped right back into the analysis game. After such a long delay from the end of Phase 3 to the start of Phase 4 in the Marvel Cinematic Universe, Easter Eggs and clues for the future are revealing themselves at every turn. In just over an hour of officially released footage to this point, teases have already been laid out for classic storylines coming to life, and others simply pay respect to the long history of the characters involved in the show....

FriendOfHumanity/CC BY-NC-SA 2.0 Last year I participated in the installation of the Mobile Garden, a garden installed on a CTA train by Joe Baldwin of NoisiVelvet. Since then my interest in “mobile gardening” has led me to research ways people are creating mobile gardens of their own. Bicycle gardening is perhaps the most ingenious examples of mobile gardening I‘ve come across. The examples are easy to adapt and modify to create your own bicycle gardens....

New information indicates Elvis star Austin Butler is being pushed for a role in Marvel Studios’ Fantastic Four as the Human Torch. Butler is just the latest actor to have their name put up for Fantastic Four contention, as Marvel Studios looks to fill out its take on the super-powered brand’s First Family. Fantastic Four casting rumors have almost been as fervent as news of actors saying they want to be a part of the MCU epic....

The Avengers are currently on a semi-hiatus within the Marvel Cinematic Universe after their last epic adventure in 2019’s Avengers: Endgame. However, that leaves room for other classic MCU teams like the upcoming take on the X-Men, which should feature top-notch characters from past movies like Cyclops, Storm, and especially Wolverine. Although fan-casts run rampant for most of Marvel’s mutants ahead of their MCU debut, almost none is more popular than James Logan after Hugh Jackman’s extensive 17-year run in Fox’s X-Men saga....

Fan favorite actor, Dwayne “The Rock” Johnson, has been attached to the role of Black Adam, Shazam’s mystical foe for quite some time. Black Adam is typically portrayed as Shazam’s villainous counterpart and possesses the same set of powers and abilities (Although he has also been portrayed as an antihero more recently.) DC’s plan is to introduce Adam in his solo movie and have him clash with Billy Batson and family in a sequel to 2019’s Shazam!...

It seems that Chris Hemsworth thinks his MCU hero Thor Odinson might die the next time he portrays the character.When it comes to the original big-screen line-up of Avengers, half of them are dead or out of the picture. The other three, Hulk, Hawkeye, and Thor, are still active. But for how long?There doesn’t seem to be a clear end in sight for Hulk, and Hawkeye is always temporarily retired. As for Thor, technically speaking, the character could exist until the end of the Marvel Cinematic Universe itself....

Disney, its streaming service, and more mature content have been hot topics as of late. Whether it’s the new parental controls because of the Netflix Marvel series bringing their TV-MA rating to Disney+, or a darker MCU outing in Moon Knight finally seeing the light of day, a contingent of parents is worried about their kids falling into mature content on the largely kid-friendly service. That is not to say the service has lacked any brutal violence or mature themes....

When Thor: Love and Thunder first dropped its original trailer, as exciting as it was, its length left a lot to be desired. It came in at a measly 90 seconds. Thankfully, with a few weeks having passed since then, the time has come for a new trailer––a full-length one at that. Much more was shown off, including more of Natalie Portman’s Jane Foster, Valkyrie, Korg, and most importantly, the first footage of Christian Bale’s Gorr the God Butcher....

You only need two ingredients to make rose water: rose petals and water. Yet, a four-ounce bottle of rose water can cost $10 or more. Making your own rose water is easy to do, and if you grow your own roses (or have a friend who can give you some) it’s free to make. (And even if you do buy some roses, it will still be less expensive.) Here’s all you need to know to make your own rose water....

X-Men’s Hugh Jackman commented on his feud with his future MCU co-star, Deadpool’s Ryan Reynolds.Following the September bombshell that Jackman would return as Wolverine for Marvel Studios’ Deadpool 3, the two MCU newcomers have been publicly exchanging sarcastic barbs ahead of filming. One of the latest examples involved the Wolverine star posting a plea to The Academy to not nominate Ryan Reynolds.Now, the actor opened up about his so-called “feud” with the Deadpool actor and why he’s so concerned about filming the comic book threequel....

Black Panther was iconic for many reasons, but among its most famous features came the stellar Kendrick Lamar-produced soundtrack, which featured hits from Khalid, Travis Scott, The Weeknd, and more. Marvel Studios set forth with the goal to pay homage to black artists, and now Wakanda Forever aims to do the same.Black Panther 2 will reportedly follow in the footsteps of the 2018 hit with another “inspired by” album, that will include two songs from Rihanna....

Warning: This article contains spoilers for Episode 1 of Loki. After what felt like a devastating two-month wait for Marvel fans, the MCU is officially back in action with its third Phase 4 property: the Loki Disney+ series. Tom Hiddleston made his expectedly glorious return in likely his wildest MCU adventure to date, as the Time Variance Authority apprehended the God of Mischief for “crimes against the Sacred Timeline.” The central character found himself up to his usual mischievous antics once he made his way to the TVA headquarters in an adventure that took place mere seconds after his escape in Avengers: Endgame....

While the MCU has been around since 2008, there’s one element that’s been absent: monsters. Sure, there have been a variety of creatures seen throughout many projects, but nothing squarely in the supernatural realm. At least, not until the upcoming Werewolf by Night special on Disney+.The special will see long-time composer Michael Giacchino take the directing chair as he weaves a spooky Halloween tale—the first proper horror outing for the Marvel Cinematic Universe....

Begun, the prequel revival has. Set to release on May 25, 2022, Lucasfilm’s Obi-Wan Kenobi Disney+ series isn’t about Mandalorians or the post-Return of the Jedi galaxy, but rather a return to the stars of George Lucas’ prequel trilogy starring Ewan McGregor’s Jedi Master Obi-Wan Kenobi and Hayden Christensen’s Anakin Skywalker. In recent years, many Star Wars fans have gained a new appreciation for the prequels, as evidenced by Chapter 5 of The Book of Boba Fett on Disney+, which paid tribute to a Naboo Starfighter and The Phantom Menace’s signature pod race....

With a blockbuster Phase Four on the horizon for Marvel fans, one of the highlights of the epic slate is Doctor Strange in the Multiverse of Madness. The mystical sequel has been described as the first scary film to come out of the MCU, so who better to helm the project than horror directing legend Sam Raimi. Having previously helmed Tobey Maguire’s Spider-Man trilogy in the early 2000s, the director replaced Doctor Strange director Scott Derrickson on the film last year....

Warner Bros. is currently riding the success of Zack Snyder’s Justice League, although the studio is firmly set to continue working on its canon story within the DC Extended Universe. This will include multiple sequels coming into play like Jason Momoa’s Aquaman 2 in 2022 and Zachary Levi’s Shazam!: Fury of the Gods in 2023. In terms of the Shazam! sequel, the team behind the movie has already been teasing some epic action set to arrive as Billy Batson learns how to utilize his god-like alter ego’s powers more effectively....

She-Hulk: Attorney at Law is nearly finished with its first nine-episode season on Disney+, delivering a wild new story with a fresh character in Tatiana Maslany’s Jennifer Walters. However, like a few of its predecessors in Phase 4, She-Hulk has been the subject of plenty of criticism as well, although much of it has been unwarranted due to its nature.Some of the complaints have expressed dissatisfaction over the show’s use of CGI, with She-Hulk being the first MCU Disney+ series to center on a leading hero that’s so dependent on visual effects....

Architect Elrond Burrell points to Studio MM’s website, where they extoll the virtue of the modern bay window, defined as “a window built to project outward from an outside wall.” She calls them “beautifully modern and cozy,” showing a lovely box bay on a renovation in London by Platform 5 Architects. But are they? I have a bay window in my home, albeit not modern, but also not cozy. The increase in surface area and the fact that it is cantilevered out with an uninsulated floor makes it impossibly cold in winter....
