Since the success of Game of Thrones, its spin-offs and sequels are already being planned - one of which might fan favorite, Jon Snow. Kit Harrington seemingly can’t shake his iconic role of Jon Snow, as behind-the-scenes creatives already planning on exploring his character more. But sometimes actors should be careful not to give their all toone role, because it might be all they’ll be recognized for years after. There are actors with lush careers, which will still be remembered for one role....

Long before we were able to control our TVs and other smart devices in the home by voice or use automation systems like Apple HomeKit, there was the Logitech Harmony remote. These universal remotes are still pretty popular today as an easy way to control multiple devices in your living room. The concept is that you can press a single button to turn on everything that needs to be turned on for a specific activity, like a TV, AV receiver, and gaming console, switched to the right inputs so you can get going right away....

The different eCommerce website builders do vary in terms of complexity, however. Some make it as simple as possible to create an online store at the cost of flexibility, custom design, and uniqueness. Others give you many options and advanced features, but they can be daunting for beginners and inexperienced eCommerce operators. Each of the eCommerce website builders we cover in this post has features that make them the most suitable for particular types of online shops....

If you have not watched Broad City, then you are missing out on one of the funniest television comedies of the last decade. The series stars Abbi Jacobson and Ilana Glazer as two inseparable friends living in New York City and going on various misadventures involving their relationships, their professional life, and their love of weed. Though a relatively small-scale show, it brings big laughs thanks to the hilarious leads. The show can bounce between outrageous humor, biting satire, and genuinely poignant moments making it a joy to watch any episode....

Mindhunter has returned to Netflix with a second season and the show continues to grow from strength to strength, diving deeper into its story while simultaneously widening its audience. The show follows two FBI investigators, Holden Ford (Johnathan Groff) and Bill Tench (Holt McCallany), as they interview felons convicted of incredibly violent murders. It is essentially telling the story of the first investigations into serial killers, the term first being coined in the late 1970s....

Ridley Scott’s Blade Runner, an adaptation of Philip K. Dick’s Do Androids Dream of Electric Sheep?, was not appreciated when it was released in 1982. However, it has since come to be praised as one of the greatest movies ever made. Scott used the tropes and visual motifs of the film noir – from the morally ambiguous lead character’s investigation to sunlight shining into dark rooms through half-closed blinds – to explore Blade Runner’s future setting (well, 2019, so it’s not the future anymore) and the ethical considerations of its technology....

With Halloween just around the corner, it’s a good time to get in the mood with some great horror movies. While some people prefer straight scares with their horror, others like to add in some laughs as well. If that’s what you’re looking for, the brilliant horror-comedy Cabin in the Wood is a perfect choice. Cabin in the Woods seems like the simple and well-worn horror tale about a group of teens on a getaway to an isolated cabin who become targets for evil forces....

It was November 10, 2020, when Apple announced its first ARM-based chip designed for Macs. Months after it was confirmed that Macs would get Apple-made SoCs, the M1 chip was introduced with the promise of not only reinventing the Mac but changing the entire computer industry. A year later, it’s safe to say that Apple has successfully accomplished this. The Apple Silicon platform was demonstrated at WWDC 2020 in June, when Apple announced that it was bringing the same technologies found in the iPhone and iPad to the Mac....

Family movie night is the best. It’s the perfect chance to spend some time with the people that we love most and also watch an entertaining flick. When we have kids, we can’t wait to show them some of our favorite movies and have them fall in love with the stories that we adored when we were growing up. Another great thing about family movie night is that it gives us the opportunity to talk about some of the characters and themes in the films that we’re curling up in front of....

Even though Supergirl’s producers had previously commented that they wouldn’t do any crossovers, they recently decided to change their mind! Last week, it was excitedly announced that The Flash will do a crossover episode with the CBS show. This is a huge deal because crossovers have mostly happened within the “Arrowverse” on the CW. With this crossover between channels happening, that leaves a whole lot of possibilities open for other crossover episodes....

The Arrowverse has already firmly established the concept of a multiverse and many different Earths. Over the course of the various CW series, we’ve seen different incarnations of the same characters. Alex Danvers, for instance, has already been presented to us as two completely separate individuals. The upcoming Crisis on Infinite Earths is set to feature lots more realities, all of which will have their own version of these popular heroes and villains....

When it comes to adapting something meant for the stage for the screen, there can be mixed results, to say the least. The film adaptation can capture perfect choreography and performances and host them forever, while a theatrical performance has varying results each time it goes. Thus, some films can be on par with or even outdo the musical versions, and their general accessibility helps with that. Frequently, the change from stage to film comes across awkwardly, such as in Cats or The Phantom of the Opera....

In poorly narrated films, a voice-over is utilized to clear up jumbled plot points and provide context, often for a film crippled by a muddled script. In the best-narrated films, however, the voice-over provides insight into the mind of the main characters. Sometimes, the narrator is the main character, and sometimes it’s someone not appearing in the film, but it’s helpful to provide analysis and perspective otherwise not obtained. In Martin Scorsese films, for instance, the characters are often unreliable narrators, and do things audiences won’t agree with....

We’ve seen a lot of crazy and heartstopping moments on the popular show The Flash. From facing his greatest enemies to balancing his life with being a superhero, it seems like Barry has a lot to worry about. But that doesn’t stop him from being romantic, and sometimes the love spreads to the characters. The show has proven time and time again that you can still be romantic even the weight of the world is on your shoulders and when you have to deal with threats on a daily basis....

As the Marvel Cinematic Universe grows bigger by the year, the massive, widespread stories and villains are becoming a bit harder to follow. So with all the time spent getting the big picture in place, some confusing, hilarious, or just plain awesome mistakes have managed to slip into the finished movies. We’re willing to bet fans have missed plenty, so here are 10 Editing Mistakes Marvel Movies Hope You Missed....

Mac OS X 10.6 Snow Leopard was the writing on the wall for Apple to completely drop PowerPC support. Snow Leopard was the first Mac operating system to not work on PowerPC machines, yet it still ran PowerPC software through Rosetta. Even more, Rosetta was an optional download in Snow Leopard. Now in 10.7 Lion, Rosetta has vanished and Apple’s operating system launching this Summer will not support software built for PowerPC Macs....

When working on a big studio film, directors know that if it hits with audiences, most will choose to watch it more than once. Some titles reach $1 billion at the box office by repeat business at the theater. And while reliving the excitement of a story, witnessing an incredible performance, or seeing that one amazing scene again is part of the fun, there’s more to be gained when you settle in to watch a movie again....

Sex and the City is one of the most beloved shows of all time due to its candid and less-than-glamorous take on dating as a 30-something woman in New York City. It centers around four very different women, Miranda (the business-minded tough lady), Carrie (the imperfect creative-type), Charlotte (the wannabe Elizabeth Taylor), and Samantha (the sex-positive, unapologetic queen). For six seasons, the series provided us with brilliant content, and this list takes a look at some of the best episodes in the history of SATC....

The relationship between Steve Rogers and Bucky Barnes is one of the most complicated and storied in the MCU. Their friendship and lives have been full of a lot of tragedy and loss, but the bond they formed in their childhoods is strong enough that they’ve had each other’s backs through it all. Many fans have found this relationship particularly compelling given what these two characters have gone through. While much of the Steve and Bucky moments are bittersweet, they are usually always emotionally resonant....

There are only 10 episodes left until Arrow comes to an end. With such a brief eighth season to wrap up the harrowing and heroic story of Oliver Queen, there isn’t much time left for the show to walk down memory lane. After the seventh season finale’s game-changing final moments, it’s hard to know what’s in store for fans when the show returns in the fall. What we do know is that before the series finale of Arrow concludes, there are several characters we’d like to see one more time....
