While Christmas may have been and gone for another year it’s never too early to start talking about the festive period once again. By the time it rolls around again we’ll have a string of new world champions in the world of sports, there will be a whole host of new TV shows for us to indulge in and we could have a new President of the United States - but even with that all being the case, one thing that’ll never go out of fashion is Love Actually....
Galavant is a musical fantasy comedy show that’s as campy as it is fun. It only lasted two seasons and originally aired to serve as the replacement for Once Upon A Time during its mid-season hiatus. The show always felt better than it had any right to be. Part of that definitely came from the story’s self-aware nature that often poked fun at itself and the conventions of the medieval fantasy genre....
Mario Kart has been around for over 25 years, and there have been eight games in the franchise excluding the arcade versions. With so many games, there are dozens of tracks. Many of the tracks were originals in certain games and redesigned for later versions. From easy, enjoyable tracks to challenging, exciting ones, there are many fun options to choose from. Of course, every Mario Kart player has their favorite courses, but there are some that are generally seen as some of the best....
Over the past eight seasons, American Horror Story has been filled with witches, ghosts, aliens and all sorts of other supernatural creatures. While the hit horror anthology series doesn’t try to be particularly realistic, the relatable characters found within it allow viewers to picture themselves in those characters’ shoes as they’re haunted, cursed and attacked, making the series even scarier. Audiences initially tuned in for the chance to be scared, but fans have stuck around since the series began in 2011 to watch the complex relationships shared between AHS’ most dynamic and interesting characters....
Widely regarded to be the best movie adapted from a Saturday Night Live sketch (although that’s a low bar to clear), Wayne’s World stars Mike Myers and Dana Carvey as Wayne and Garth, a pair of fun-loving metalheads who have their own public access show and refuse to grow up. Although the studio had little faith in the movie, it was an instant success. It’s one of the rare movies that has the qualities of a cult classic but actually managed to break through and captivate mainstream audiences, thus making it a regular classic....
The Marvel Cinematic Universe teems with extraordinary characters. Gods, super-soldiers, assassins, aliens, and people using extreme technology, they have all saved the universe again and again. But they don’t fight alone. Sometimes fighting alongside them, or acting as their “guy in the chair," there are the ordinary people who help them out. These are people with no special powers, no suit to protect them, they’re just pitching in to do what’s right....

Michael Caine has been a mainstay in Hollywood for over 50 years now, with the actor still starring in films today and several planned for the future. He has had roles in some of the most iconic movies of all time, from the Italian Job to The Dark Knight and even Inception. Due to the fact that Michael Caine has been acting in movies for over 50 years, he has become one of the most recognizable and iconic actors of all time, in part due to his distinct cockney accent that has become a weapon in any impersonator’s arsenal....
Some films that were close but didn’t make this list are known to many moviegoers: The Imitation Game, The Irishman, Bohemian Rhapsody, Dallas Buyers Club… But the ones that did make this list might not be known to everyone (even though the ranking is based on the IMDb user rating as well as the sufficient amount of ratings). Though these are definitely not superhero movies, many of the characters in these biopics were real heroes who were admired by their contemporaries and successors alike....
HANNA PATRIOT THE ROMANOFFS The Romanoffs takes place all over the globe. Each episode tells the story of people who believe that they are the descendants of the House of Romanoff, the Russian royal family. Matthew Weiner of Mad Men fame produced the series. HOMECOMING Homecoming had two big things going for it from the start. First, it starred the most successful female movie star of the ’80s in Julia Roberts in a rare television appearance....
People love to bemoan the over reliance on CGI in today’s movie landscape. And we don’t exactly blame them. Movies like The Hobbit permanently soured our opinions on CGI (at least its overuse), and even “good” movies like those found in the Marvel Cinematic Universe are filled to the brim with, let’s face it, some pretty unconvincing CGI work. But that’s not to say that the art of the practical effect is dead....

With all the options available on Hulu, sometimes it can be hard to decide what to play (or more likely binge) next. So today let’s take some time to identify some of the greatest comedies available to binge on Hulu. We’ll go through some of the most popular comedies as well as identifying some of the hidden gems that may be a little tougher to find or take a chance on....
The “buddy cop” movie is a staple of action cinema. Movies about mismatched cops present actors with opportunities to show off their chemistry and give writers a chance to break up action sequences with some bickering between the characters. The gold standard for this well-worn subgenre is Richard Donner’s 1987 neo-noir action thriller Lethal Weapon, the tale of unstable young renegade cop Martin Riggs (Mel Gibson) teaming up with by-the-book detective Roger Murtaugh (Danny Glover), an old coot on the brink of retirement....
Warning! Spoilers for Avengers: Endgame below. Karen Gillan has played Nebula in a few movies in the Marvel Cinematic Universe at this point, but she’s never had a bigger role than she did in Avengers: Endgame. As the closest character to Thanos, she was the one who knew where “the garden” was, the one who knew where the Power Stone was in the 2014, the one whose past self was allied to him – she was even trapped with Tony Stark at the beginning, kicking off the movie’s most tragic character arc as his pseudo space sidekick....
Somehow, the Lego company managed to make an hour and a half long advertisement, then have people go and pay to see it. They literally made money (lots of it) from their advert, while simultaneously making money because of their advert. Genius. Then they made a Lego Movie focused on Batman, then one on Ninjago, then a sequel to their first effort. With the exception of Lego Ninjago, the entire franchise is weirdly brilliant....
Who doesn’t love a good ol’ fashioned cheesy action movie? Similar to the horror and sci-fi genres, there’s a tendency for many action films to contain a fair bit of corniness, implausibility, and over-the-top bombast. While there are plenty of more well-crafted, nuanced movies that fall under this umbrella, there’s certainly no shortage of what can be considered “guilty pleasures.” These are essentially films that are simply fun to watch, despite being recognized as some combination of weak premises, silly, “low brow” themes, or generally poor quality....
With Disney Channel’s original and longest-running sitcom Game of Thrones coming to an end, now would be a good time to take a trip down memory lane. Oh, wait. We’ve just been informed that Game of Thrones is not the same show as Duck Tales. Joking aside, it’s crazy to think that shows like That’s So Raven and Boy Meets World have been able to return to television with successful new stories....
Robinhood has been one of the most popular online investing platforms that people have relied upon in the recent few years. Its biggest selling point is the zero-cost commission that most other investing platforms simply don’t offer. Pair that up with a sleek app design and highly positive user feedback, it simply is the default for anyone looking to invest in stocks online. However, if you are an avid follower of cryptocurrency or stock market news, then you must be aware of the recent data breach that took place in the Robinhood app that affected more than 5 million users and potentially leaked their data....
The final season of Game of Thrones is almost here which is both exciting and a little depressing for fans. While we wait for April to watch the final season, there are some series on Netflix that can help fill that time and distract fan from the agony of waiting. While none of these shows are exactly like Game of Thrones, they each have some similarities, and there is something on this list for everybody....
