Moving on from the decade-long Infinity Stone-centric storyline, the Multiverse has become the biggest link connecting the current MCU. Having first been mentioned in Doctor Strange, the Multiverse was fully unraveled with the cliffhanger ending of Loki, used to bring back fan favorites in Spider-Man: No Way Home, and will once again be the driving force behind Doctor Strange in the Multiverse of Madness. After a season full of time travel, Variants, and surprises, the climactic episode of Loki introduced Jonathan Majors’ He Who Remains as the man behind the curtain at the TVA....

Audiences should prepare themselves to hear one line of dialogue over and over again. That line? “I am Groot.” That’s right, everyone’s favorite pint-sized flora colossus is getting his own series of short films exclusively on Disney+. The series will feature photorealistic animation and see Vin Diesel reprise his role in the appropriately titled I Am Groot. Little is known about the storylines in these shorts, but it’s widely assumed that they’re mainly meant to be fun little diversions....

Just as the Infinity Saga had the Infinity Stones, this next era of the Marvel Cinematic Universe will have the multiverse. Loki’s finale introduced audiences to the concept of the multiverse, starting slowly with timeline talk and the many Loki Variants. Now, fans will have Marvel Studios’ What If…?, the MCU’s first venture into animation, to look forward to. While not live-action, the stories it will tell will be just as important to the wider universe as all the other projects....

Marvel Studios might be considering some big changes for the ending of the Multiverse Saga, Phase 7, and Avengers: Secret Wars.A report circulated in December that Marvel Studios was dissatisfied with the quality of Phase 4 and how the projects had been received. This has supposedly led the studio to reevaluate and make changes to its Phase 5 and 6 plans to ensure better quality control. Marvel Studios has clearly already begun putting this plan into effect with a slew of recent release delays....

Throughout Robert Downey Jr.’s various MCU appearances as Tony Stark, he’s often shown flaunting a shiny new upgrade to his Iron Man armor. In fact, almost every RDJ inclusion also warrants a new Iron Man suit, and each suit that Tony makes is better than the last. It wasn’t until Sony got involved in the MCU process that Iron Man’s on-screen advancements started to plateau. Ever since 2008’s Iron Man introduced Tony Stark as a genius innovator looking to help protect the world, fans have watched Stark make new discoveries and countless improvements to his tech over the years....

Marvel Studios’ Moon Knight only scratched the surface of what the leading character could bring to the table, particularly in terms of the numerous personalities that drive the leading hero’s story forward. Season 1 largely focused on Marc Spector and his main alternate persona, Steven Grant, although the darker Jake Lockley also made his presence felt throughout the series. Oscar Isaac brought Jake Lockley to life in the post-credits scene from Episode 6 as he drove up to the mental institution in a fancy limousine before seemingly killing Ethan Hawke’s Arthur Harrow....

Activists everywhere were outraged by their latest public service message. That’s a Shutterstock photo of a woman walking on the sidewalk with a cup of coffee. You would think that this would be a perfectly safe thing to do, but evidently it’s not; that’s why the National Highway Traffic Safety Administrationis putting up tweets showing an iStock photo of “a young blonde woman holding an umbrella while walking downtown in the rain” on the sidewalk with the message...

When Matt Reeves was announced to direct what was originally meant to be the Ben Affleck-led Batman movie, The Batman, no one expected it to have any sequels. However, it quickly became apparent that Warner Bros. was heavily invested in Reeves, especially when it was rumored that he almost walked away until he was offered complete creative control over the project. After Robert Pattinson was officially cast as Bruce Wayne in 2019, it was apparent that Warner Bros....

Over the last year, ever since Cox’s return in Spider-Man: No Way Home and Kingpin in Hawkeye, the question of whether Netflix’s Daredevil is canon has plagued the online conversation. Is this the same Matt Murdock who fans followed for years, or is it a slightly different Variant—given all of the Multiverse shenanigans?Sadly, as of now, there’s no proper answer. However, there have been plenty of comments regarding the controversial topic....

No one really knows what the future holds for the characters in season one of What If…?. But with a season filled with an endless world of possibilities and season two coming, there are no limits to where these characters can go. The first half of What If…? hinted at some continuity with dreams of the Guardians of the Multiverse being sprinkled in every episode. This led many fans to believe that this season, despite being alternative realities and one-off stories, could come together for an Avengers-level finale....

In the not-too-distant future, one of the biggest media mergers ever will become official with Discovery and Warner Bros joining forces to make one new major studio. This becomes official after the deal was first announced nearly a year ago and approved in December 2021 as it combines a couple of major players in the streaming game - HBO Max and Discovery+.

The Batman is close to the horizon, and fans cannot wait. The upcoming Matt Reeves-directed take on DC’s Dark Knight has been years in the making and is mere weeks away from hitting theaters worldwide. The film stars Robert Pattinson as Bruce Wayne this time around and looks to be a darker take on the world of Gotham City, more akin to something from famed director David Fincher than the typical comic book fare....

As a kid, I remember the times when I was telling the truth and my folks didn’t believe me. It felt like such an injustice to my indignant little mind. Now I’m a parent attempting to decipher truth from fiction in my own kids, and the view’s a lot murkier from this side. Take, for example, the story about a school librarian-turned-detective who proved a student’s innocence and got her un-grounded at home....

If your landscape goal is to have the perfect lawn, who is it for? Yourself? Your neighbors? If the answer is both, perhaps you should expand your definition of neighbors and rise to a different challenge: Try growing a perfect lawn for bees. That means you’ll have to change your concept of a perfect lawn. Most people probably think a lawn should consist of a single type of grass that’s manicured and maintained to look like a golf course....

In the 1940s, the United States military asked Johnson & Johnson to devise “a waterproof, strong cloth based tape that could keep moisture out of ammunition cases,” according to Boston.com. The result was a superhero adhesive tape made from a rubber-based adhesive applied to a durable duck cloth backing. Originally called duck tape, due to its cotton duck substrate, at some point during the last half of the 20th century it became better known as duct tape, owing to its employment in ductwork....

When The Amazing Spider-Man franchise blipped out of existence, so did Andrew Garfield’s Peter Parker, Emma Stone’s Gwen Stacy, and Dane DeHaan’s Harry Osborn. As Sony Pictures decided to join forces with Marvel Studios, they left behind many iconic characters and loose ends dangling for The Amazing Spider-Man 3 and Sinister Six films that never happened.DeHaan’s Green Goblin that was introduced at the end of The Amazing Spider-Man 2 was set up to be a leader of the growing Sinister Six....

This infographic, created by Chuck Patton of Bird Rock Coffee Roasters, hopes to clear up any mysteries between the two styles of coffee trading. It’s a wonderful thing that shoppers are becoming more conscientious about what they buy, asking where and how products are made, but it has also led to a confusing array of terms, labels, and certifications. These range from organic, natural, eco, and green, to bird-friendly, reef-safe, and cruelty-free, with additional certifications from the Rainforest Alliance, Fair Trade International, Fair Trade USA, FSC, MSC, etc....

While Marvel Studios expands the MCU both in theaters and on Disney+, fans also have a whole new library of material to enjoy on Disney+ thanks to six shows from Netflix moving to a new home.
