Umbrella Academy was the first of Netflix’s adaptations of a Dark Horse Comic, and it was received extremely well. Numbers show that the the show has been a hit for the streaming service, and they are eager to continue their partnership with the comic company. Umbrella Academy was extremely gripping and well done, and showed that Netflix can have massive success with superhero properties outside of Marvel. Now that Disney will be launching Disney+, all future Marvel television will inevitably make its way towards their own streaming service....

Clueless is a 1995 teen movie starring Alicia Silverstone as Cher Horowitz, a spoiled Beverly Hills teen that finds purpose in conducting good deeds for those around her. It was a memorable teen movie in that it made us laugh, taught life lessons, and provided many relatable storylines throughout (and was originally based on Jane Austen’s Emma!). Watching Cher navigate high school and life is one of those stories that will always be a significant part of pop culture, and Cher’s character is definitely a favorite of ours....

Even long after it ended, Full House remains one of the most beloved sitcoms from the early 90s. Throughout its 8 season run, the series managed to build quite the following. Considering the success of the show, the consistent cast and longer than average series was so successful that it even got a spinoff series many years later titled, Fuller House. While the series itself was still far from perfect, the expert balance of heart and humor helped make audiences very forgiving to some weaker moments in the series....

How I Met Your Mother may not have ended the way some fans wanted, but there are many other aspects that fans should be thankful for. For instance, the soundtrack.

While these songs have given us much joy and pleasure, have you ever been curious to analyze the lyrics?...

As far as cinema-goers are concerned, the 2010s will be remembered as the decade of the comic book adaptation. Avengers: Endgame even became the highest-grossing film of all time. This success is nothing new, producers have found it in adapted everything; books, songs, poetry, paintings, even newspaper articles about orchids - everything gets a film adaptation eventually. This is due to existing media bringing a built-in audience, and with it guaranteed attention....

One of the finest aspects from the Game of Thrones universe that captivated the minds of viewers was its enormous attention to detail. Every time a new city was visited in Westeros or abroad, audience members would be subject to a new style of building architecture, different climates, unique styles of clothing and even new languages formulated by the crew behind the show, for example, Dothraki and High Valyrian. While viewers were treated to an array of breathtaking landscapes and bustling urban environments, there are still a number of mystical locations on the continents of Essos and Sothoryos that are yet to be discovered....

Movies are prone to make mistakes with continuity, being one of the most common oversights throughout their editing process. Wardrobe malfunctions, actor placement, or even weather are all factors to take into consideration when going from scene to scene. And even the most popular films have their fair share of mistakes, not to mention CGI errors. The Lord of The Rings: The Two Towers is a masterpiece in itself, a beautiful depiction of Tolkien’s universe on the big screen....

Puppet Master has proven to be as dogmatic and relentless as the killer marionettes at the center of its story. Since its release in 1989, it’s gained a cult following with a new release nearly every other year for almost 30 years. Andrew Toulon’s puppet gang have been antagonists, protagonists, and anti-heroes throughout a multitude of sequels, each building on the world imagined by the minds at Full Moon Productions....

One of the great thrills of the MCU is seeing the same actors return to these iconic roles repeatedly. Some of these actors have been a part of the universe since the beginning, while others are quickly solidifying their place in it. Before we look at the MCU’s M.V.P.s, we’ll need to set some ground rules. We’ll be counting all MCU feature films up to and including Spider-Man: Far From Home....

Horror is certainly subjective. Different terrors frighten different people. October is, of course, prime time for horror films. Every horror fan makes a concerted effort to watch the classics and the new releases hitting streaming services and theaters. With horror, there never seems to be any middle ground. The film either succeeds or it doesn’t. One element of a solid horror film, however, seems to be a key indicator as to whether the film will gain traction with an audience - the ending....

In January, Jason Reitman’s surprise announcement that he was developing a new sequel to his father’s classic supernatural comedy Ghostbusters was met with both excitement and skepticism from the fan base. Sony already tried and failed to reboot the franchise. It was nothing to do with the cast being female; it just wasn’t that good of a movie. Things are looking promising for the proposed threequel, with terrific actors like Finn Wolfhard and Carrie Coon being eyed for the leading roles....

The last decade has been insanely successful in the TV show realm. Viewers were introduced to shows that pushed boundaries and struck up a ton of emotions. It feels like all we did this decade was cry over TV deaths, accomplishments, and characters who broke molds. It looks like we have a lot to look forward to in the next decade but before we get too excited, we have put together a list of some of TV’s most profound, heartbreaking, and shocking plot twists of the last decade....

The epic DC superhero crossover Crisis on Infinite Earths was one of the most fascinating television events of the last year. Its storyline had fan-favorite heroes fighting against almost certain doom and the stakes were raised so high it was unclear whether the good guys would win in the end or not. Now the viewers know the heroes ultimately prevailed, but it wasn’t without sacrifices. Even though the crossover is over, a lot of questions remain that need to be answered....

Compared to the reception of the Harry Potter film series, Fantastic Beasts has suffered about as many defeats as Voldemort. This prequel series helmed by J.K. Rowling has made drastic changes to the mythos of the Wizarding World, made questionable casting decisions, and has fans questioning the legitimacy of its story. One thing though that many fans haven’t necessarily complained as much about are the many continuity errors found in both films....

Ellen DeGeneres is undeniably an icon, a queen, and an absolute hero to so many. Not only is she one of the most inspiring and kind people on the planet, she also has a true affinity for comedy. The defining point for her career was performing a hilarious skit on the Johnny Carson show in 1986. Since then, Ellen has been making us laugh and cry. Her show is now on its sixteenth season, and she has used her fame and power to do amazing things....

The Godfather and its sequel are praised as two of the greatest movies ever made (the third one, not so much), and they remain a pair of timeless classics that film buffs revisit again and again. But making them wasn’t easy. Throughout the early ‘70s and much later in the early ‘90s, production on The Godfather trilogy was marred with problems. Director Francis Ford Coppola constantly clashed with the studio, from executives trying to get him replaced while shooting the first movie to the filmmaker not even wanting to make a third one....

Like Dorothy says in The Wizard of Oz, “There’s no place like home.” Movies for families and about families are a staple at the cineplex, and they can be found in every genre from animation to horror. There’s no shortage of iconic same-sex siblings relationships found on the silver screen: Michael and Fredo Corleone, the March sisters, Thor and Loki, Gilbert and Arnie Grape, Jake and Elwood, Tina and Queenie, and Anna and Elsa....

Grey’s Anatomy recently broke records and became the longest-running medical drama on TV. This is a big accomplishment for a series that had such a humble beginning. Now, almost 16 seasons have aired. Shonda Rhime’s hit medical drama has been airing on ABC since 2005. It was the first series that the groundbreaking writer/director ever created and now she’s a beloved showrunner. Grey’s Anatomy is special and important for several reasons, and it’s a series that is still very relevant today....
