It’s been nearly three full years since Lucasfilm and Disney concluded Star Wars’ sequel trilogy, adding plenty of new characters to the lore of the galaxy far, far away between Episode VII and Episode IX. Included in that group was Kelly Marie Tran as Rose Tico, although Tran endured about as rough of a time as one could go through being part of the Star Wars franchise. Rose made her mark as a supporting character in the Resistance when she was first introduced in Episode VIII: The Last Jedi, mostly appearing alongside John Boyega’s Finn, although Tran had plenty of troubles to deal with off-camera....

In a single word, easy. This past weekend, I had the great pleasure of traveling from Ontario to Indianapolis (and back) in a Tesla Model S. The car belongs to my uncle, and when he heard that my cousin Gillian and I were planning a road trip to Indy to visit our other cousin, he offered us the car. I have admired this car ever since he bought it in 2014....

As we often say on Treehugger, “e-bikes will eat cars.” On Forbes, Scott Kramer reviews an e-bike and writes, “I am officially selling my car to ride an electric bike full time. No, this isn’t a publicity stunt. It’s a real thing. I ran the numbers and it makes perfect sense.” A Juiced CrossCurrent X commuter bike convinced him. He writes: Under California rules, 28 mph and 750 watts make this a Class III e-bike, although they are not supposed to have throttles....

Paul Rudd’s Scott Lang has had quite the journey in the MCU thus far. The hero fought against the Sokovia Accords, got trapped in the Quantum Realm, and helped devise the plan to save half the universe’s population. Additionally, there can’t be Ant-Man without Hope Van Dyne as the Wasp. She’s battled alongside Scott on many adventures, and the pair will team up at least once more in 2023’s Ant-Man and the Wasp: Quantumania....

In concept, single-stream recycling is a marvelous thing. When everything — glass containers, aluminum cans, plastic bottles and spent paper products of all shapes and sizes — can be chucked into a single bin and hauled to the curb, folks who normally balk at the act of recycling are more likely to participate. (Some people really hate sorting, apparently.) In turn, by taking sorting out of the equation and making things simpler for the consumer, household recycling rates go up, municipalities cut costs on the collection/transportation front and, theoretically, less recyclable waste ends up being landfilled....

The story of Black Panther: Wakanda Forever won’t end with the big-screen epic as one hero’s MCU story will continue in a “direct sequel” on Disney+.Marvel Studios’ upcoming Wakandan sequel will introduce many new players into the MCU, including an all-new Black Panther and Namor. Beyond that, Wakanda Forever will also mark the live-action debut of Riri Williams, a young MIT genius who develops her own Iron Man-inspired suit to become Ironheart....

Daredevil is back, something many diehard fans never thought would happen. After the cancellation of Netflix’s Daredevil following its three-season run, there was nary a drop of optimism about the show and its characters showing up on-screen again. However, that has all changed with Charlie Cox’s Man Without Fear appearing in Spider-Man: No Way Home and She-Hulk: Attorney at Law, and a full-fledged solo series (titled Daredevil: Born Again) on the way....

The climactic finale has plenty more to do to close out the MCU’s latest adventure fittingly as the Power Broker still lurks in the shadows of Madripoor, and Julia Louis-Dreyfus’ mysterious character arrives in Walker’s life....

Thanks to Sylvie and the TVA’s self-realization, fans now have the next decade of MCU storytelling right in front of them. Not only that, but they have it magnificently illustrated in the form of the Sacred Timeline branching out into the endless beauty of true chaos: the Multiverse. While Loki was an exploration of self and identity, the show’s wider purpose was to introduce audiences to the concept of various timelines, and the many things that the Multiverse will bring to the table....

No matter how green your thumb is, the fate of your garden still hinges on a higher power. That’s why, before getting into the weeds with a new flower bed or vegetable patch, it’s wise to consult one of Earth’s top arbiters of horticultural luck: the sun. As in real estate, a garden’s success stems largely from location. You have to pick the right plants for your climate, of course, but you also have to pick the right place to plant them....

While Chris Hemsworth currently has the spotlight thanks to the second trailer for Thor: Love and Thunder, his on-screen brother Tom Hiddleston isn’t too far behind for a return. Outside of a touching tattoo tribute on Thor’s back, Hiddleston’s Loki is geared up to return for another round of storytelling in Season 2 of Loki on Disney+. Even though there are no signs pointing to the plot for Season 2, Loki and his new companions at the Time Variance Authority are in a world of trouble thanks to the closing moments of Episode 6....

DC will rejoin the fray as well in just under a month with director James Gunn’s work on The Suicide Squad coming on August 6....

There was a lot to take in when it came to Marvel Studios’ announcements at San Diego Comic-Con 2022. Of course, there’s the reveal of Avengers: Kang Dynasty and Secret Wars, then the shocking episode count of Daredevil: Born Again, and even an official unveiling of Thunderbolts. Surprisingly, one of the biggest parts of the company’s panel wasn’t a new project but rather the first teaser for Black Panther: Wakanda Forever....

Star Wars has been on the rise recently. While Lucasfilm’s content hasn’t been to the levels of Marvel Studios, its ambitious plans are reaching those same heights. This year has only had The Bad Batch and Visions, but later this year, fans will have The Book of Boba Fett’s big launch. Then, next year, there are at least three to four series on the schedule for fans to look forward to....

After the first-unit production for Shang-Chi and the Legend of The Ten Rings was initially delayed due to director Destin Daniel Cretton isolating himself from the rest of the crew as he awaited the results of a COVID-19 test, the entire production was soon halted altogether because of the continuing outbreak. Disney and Marvel Studios never gave any specification when production would start again for their projects, but one rumor has said that they could attempt to have cameras rolling again in the Summer....

Tatiana Maslany’s She-Hulk: Attorney at Law is finally here. The world has now met Jennifer Walters, the second Hulk in the family. Sure, the first look that audiences got of her didn’t inspire confidence, but the VFX has since improved, and it looks like it could be quite the unique Marvel Studios venture. One big difference that the show will have compared to the more recent Disney+ series’ is how it won’t be billed as an hour-long (or, more realistically, 45-minute) drama....
