Who would have thought a film that failed as badly as Morbius could keep cropping up in the news over two months after release? Not only did Sony’s Marvel flick prove to be hated by critics and fans alike, but it also ended up being among the biggest box office failures in Marvel history - the movie grossed only $163 million worldwide (to date). Even with Morbius’ theatrical run concluded and the film now available to be watched at home, Jared Leto’s Marvel debut continues to break the news....

The people behind the Tower Gardens claim it can produce fresh local food in half the time as conventional growing, with 90% less water and in 90% less space. I have to admit that when it comes to the launch of new products in the green scene, I do rather enjoy seeing novel solar gizmos and gadgets, but I’m most excited when I see innovations designed to help more people grow their own food....

Bringing a character with decades of comic history from page to screen is no easy task, but fortunately, Marvel Studios has proven rather consistently successful over the years. Heroes like Captain America and Iron Man have been faithfully adapted in terms of their suits, personas, and occasionally stories. Meanwhile, characters such as the Guardians of the Galaxy have been overhauled on such a great scale that those changes have spilled onto the page....

Q: It’s that time of year again! My neighborhood grocery store is finally stocked with all my favorite holiday-themed creamer flavors — things like eggnog, gingerbread and pumpkin spice! There’s something about holiday creamer that really makes the season come alive for me. I know, I know — I’m superficial and perhaps a bit crazy. But every year, I savor the last few drops of my Peppermint Mocha coffee come January time, and I was thinking — maybe there’s a way for me to enjoy the holidays all year long!...

The Marvels is set to unveil the first-ever team-up of Captain Marvel, Ms. Marvel, and Monica Rambeau, with Marvel Studios president Kevin Feige comparing that moment to a crucial one from 2012’s The Avengers. Marketing for Captain Marvel 2 has yet to begin since a new trailer didn’t premiere during this year’s Super Bowl despite rumors swirling around. Still, the anticipation for the MCU sequel is high due to its three lead stars....

It’s an industrial design approach, a product that is refined almost to perfection. A problem with architecture is everything is pretty much a one-off. An architect’s work evolves and is built on precedent, but you can’t give the next client exactly what you gave the last one (unless you are selling crystal shaped museum additions.) But industrial designers, they are lucky. They get to prototype and refine and develop their designs and the more they make, the better it gets....

Even nearly 40 years after his death in Episode VI: Return of the Jedi, Darth Vader remains a powerful force throughout all corners of the Star Wars universe. This is even the case in a way with the franchise’s newest upcoming release, Star Wars: Andor, which serves as a prequel to the 2016 hit movie Rogue One.That movie served as a bridge between the prequel trilogy and the original trilogy, where Anakin Skywalker began his rise to power as a Sith Lord and embraced the dark side of the Force....

Disney is ramping up promotion for Black Panther: Wakanda Forever as the studio announced a significant piece of marketing to celebrate the legacy of the MCU’s Black Panther and the late Chadwick Boseman. Through the years, Marvel Studios and Disney have been hand-in-hand in creating content for fans, with both of them going all-out in providing promotional materials for each MCU project. However, they still didn’t maximize making podcasts to fully showcase the extent of these movies....

Back in 2015, Elizabeth Olsen shared that her favorite Scarlet Witch story was “House of M,” saying that it would be “unbelievable” if the character could have “two fake babies and everyone tell her that they don’t really exist.” Fast forward to seven years later, and this exact premise is Wanda Maximoff’s arc in Phase 4, starting out in WandaVision and ultimately leading to an eventful showcase in Doctor Strange in the Multiverse of Madness....

Ever since the original Bioshock was released back in 2007, the world of Rapture has kept the attention of gamers around the world. The series went on to release two more games since then, including Bioshock 2 and Bioshock: Infinite, both of which continued to expand the endlessly engrossing lore of the game’s universe. With such storytelling on display, one has to ask why it took so long to get a Bioshock movie....

Marvel Studios has a lot to look forward to in the coming weeks, particularly with the upcoming theatrical release for Doctor Strange in the Multiverse of Madness. Ahead of this film, Marvel and Funko have released their next round of Pops! to celebrate the rookie and veteran heroes joining forces in this story. However, not all the response to these Funkos has been of the positive variety.Xochitl Gomez is set to make her Marvel Cinematic Universe debut as the Multiverse-jumping heroine America Chavez, and she has as big of a role as anybody alongside Doctor Strange and Wanda Maximoff....

Spider-Man’s presence in the Marvel Cinematic Universe is continuing its wildly successful run with December’s Spider-Man: No Way Home. Tickets for the threequel are already a hot commodity less than 24 hours after going on sale, and the hype for No Way Home is still chugging along at full speed as it has for more than a year.

MCU actor Jonathan Majors is set to make his big screen debut as Kang the Conqueror in Ant-Man and the Wasp: Quantumania, but it seems that the version of the villain seen in the threequel is one of many Variants that will soon arrive in Phase 5 and Phase 6. Although Majors already made his presence felt as He Who Remains in Loki’s Season 1 finale, the more menacing villain (or at least a Variant of him) that the Avengers will eventually face will be featured in Ant-Man 3....

Marvel Studios is kicking off its new era of storytelling on Disney+ with a bang thanks to seven mind-boggling episodes of WandaVision so far. This hot streak will look to continue through the rest of 2021 with five more series, one of them introducing a character never seen in the MCU before with Ms. Marvel. Kamala Khan has been rising in popularity through her run in Marvel Comics over the last few years, and her solo show has an incredible team attached to bring the story to life within the MCU....

Spider-Man: No Way Home is one of the most anticipated Marvel movies of 2021, mainly due to the Multiverse-related rumors and reports that hounded the film in the past year. Tom Holland’s Peter Parker is set to return in the MCU threequel, and he will be joined by an unexpected Multiversal cast. Benedict Cumberbatch’s Doctor Strange will make a comeback in No Way Home to help Parker with his identity crisis dilemma, but the young hero’s meddling combined with the Sorcerer’s dangerous spell will ultimately lead to the arrival of villains from past Spider-Man films....

Star Wars is arguably in the midst of its most significant years of content since the debut of the sequel trilogy. Disney initially focused its use of the iconic sci-fi franchise in blockbuster theatrical outings and spin-offs, however, it seems the universe is set to pivot to an episodic focus. The viral success of The Mandalorian on Disney+ has proven that popular high-budget stories can still be told in series format, leading to the announcement of an expansive slate of shows for the service....

Superman & Lois’ confirmation that it is not set on Earth-Prime a.k.a. the home of the rest of the Arrowverse shows raised a lot of questions ahead of its upcoming third season. One of those queries revolves around the possibility of seeing other established superheroes, such as Melissa Benoist’s Supergirl. Even though Supergirl already finished its six-season run on The CW, there are still a lot of stories to tell for the titular Girl of Steel....
