WandaVision episode 7 finally gives us a post-credits scene. Yes, the tried and true MCU tradition has finally made its way to one of the Marvel Studios Disney+ shows. Sure, you could probably argue that the fact that the first few episodes had “sitcom credits” before the actual credits rolled was kind of a meta-joke about the credits themselves being the post-credits scenes on this show (and I’m not entirely sure that wasn’t intentional), but in terms of an actual stinger or tease for future episodes?...

Warrior Season 2 Episode 2 When Warrior was first announced, Bruce Lee fans were worried that this was going to be just another Bruceploitation. After all, there are hundreds, if not thousands, of Bruceploitation flicks. Bruce Lee is the most impersonated icon on the planet. No one needed to see another weak caricature of the Little Dragon, even if it was on Cinemax. However, Warrior isn’t Bruceploitation at all. The creator and writer of the show, Jonathan Tropper, credits Bruce’s daughter, Shannon Lee for making sure that Warrior didn’t go “overboard with the Bruce Lee stuff....

While the leaked screenshot of the rumored roster that was initially shared by a prominent Smash Bros. player has since been removed, here’s a rundown of some of the characters that will reportedly appear in the game: BatmanBugs BunnyFinn (Adventure Time)GandalfHarley QuinnJake (Adventure Time)RickShaggy (Scooby-Doo)Steven UniverseSupermanTom & JerryWonder Woman Before we dive into…all that, we should make it very clear that WB has not confirmed this project (which is currently being referred to as Warner Bros Multiversus) is actually in development....

Episode 5 of Marvel’s What If…?, entitled ‘What If…Zombies!?’, is a tremendously fun half hour of television, and is also likely to be a really good time for fans of the Marvel Zombies comics. The installment is packed with laughs and shocking moments, using classic zombie tropes to keep some of the best and most underrated MCU characters on their toes while maintaining an enviable pace as it throws one wild scenario after another at them....

Marvel’s What If…? ended its first season while revisiting all eight previous episodes in one big crossover climax. All of the major worlds from the season have been given some sort of follow-up, including one from an episode that got cut completely! Despite its anthology nature, the final three episodes (well, the final two episodes and like 30 seconds of the one previous) morphed the season into one big story....

Early on in the first episode of Marvel’s latest Disney+ series Loki, the titular God of Mischief stands trial for his crimes. He isn’t being charged with the crimes we’re familiar, mind you, which is to say attempted homicide, fratricide, and even genocide, but rather something far more serious: time crimes. As he stands before Time Variance Authority judge Ravonna Renslayer (Gugu Mbatha-Raw), Loki does what many accused criminals do and attempts to blame someone else....

With Star Wars: The High Republic, Disney and Lucasfilm set out to explore a new galactic era that looked and felt different from anything that came before. Long before the rise of the Empire and the fall of the Jedi, the Republic was stable and prosperous. In fact, the High Republic books and comics released so far show Jedi using their skills for situations other than all-out war. New Star Wars characters, villains, and settings are enough to get any fan excited but getting in on the ground floor of this era is an endeavor spread across several different books and comic series, each providing a piece of a much larger puzzle and a backdrop for future stories....

2022 is the year of the reboot. Dozens of television shows are finding their way back to the small screen through networks and streaming services. From Beavis and Butt-Head to Frasier, Fraggle Rock, and Law and Order, producers and writers leave no stone unturned in the search for that next show that (re)captures the attention and love of viewers. While some reboots, revivals, and revamps dust off poorly, others hit the ground running....

The Nintendo Entertainment System (NES) is arguably one of the most important consoles in gaming history and one of the most important devices in the history of entertainment. The platform launched stateside in 1986 and helped revitalize the gaming industry after the disastrous video game crash of 1983. The beginnings of countless beloved franchises premiered on the NES, including The Legend of Zelda, Final Fantasy, Metroid, and Mega Man. In 1991, Nintendo followed up the NES’ success with the Super Nintendo Entertainment System (SNES), but even though the company had a new product, it still supported and even published games for the NES....

Angela Davis was born to encourage free thought. The neighborhood where she grew up in Birmingham, Alabama, was called “Dynamite Hill,” because the Ku Klux Klan tried to bomb middle-class Blacks out of the area. Cops broke up interracial study groups Angela organized in high school, and she knew some of the young girls killed in the 1963 church bombing in Birmingham. She spoke French, graduated Brandeis and traveled to Europe before she became a UCLA philosophy instructor....

Brosnan reveals he’s a lifelong comic book fan who couldn’t be happier to be a part of the epic and potentially game changing DC movie, especially in a role as important as Doctor Fate. Here’s what we had to say about the upcoming blockbuster… How are you feeling about Black Adam and making your debut as Doctor Fate? PIERCE BROSNAN: I’m so excited about this film. I’ve actually never been so excited about something....

Gillen is the writer behind Eisner- and Hugo-nominated comics such as perennial Den of Geek favorites Once & Future and The Wicked + The Divine. But even before that, he was part of that mid-aughts wave of Image writers who took over Marvel’s flagship books. Gillen wrote a couple of excellent Utopia-era X-Men books (Generation Hope and Uncanny X-Men), as well as a beloved run with Kid Loki that helped inspire one Disney+ show and a relaunch of Young Avengers with Jamie McKelvie that is likely going to have an impact on the MCU further down the line....

Earlier today, FromSoftware’s parent company, Kadokawa Corporation, announced that Sony Interactive Entertainment had purchased 14.09% of FromSoft, while Tencent subsidiary Sixjoy Hong Kong had bought 16.25% of the same company’s shares. While Kadokawa still owns the remaining 69.66% of FromSoftware, Sony’s purchase surprised many gamers. Why buy so many shares, and why buy them now? The potential answer to that question lies in legal jargon as well as some of Sony’s previous video game acquisitions and investments....

After Wanda Maximoff (Elizabeth Olsen) appeared to sacrifice herself to destroy Mount Wundagore in Doctor Strange in the Multiverse of Madness, fans have been wondering when or if the Scarlet Witch will make a return to the MCU. While the fate of the Wanda Maximoff we know and love may still be up in the air, neither Elizabeth Olsen nor MCU mastermind Kevin Feige seem ready to say goodbye to the character just yet....

At this point, Search Party has done just about everything a dark comedy can be asked to do. Through four seasons, the show has: captured a Nancy Drew-style mystery through a millennial aesthetic, maneuvered through an unnerving, at times violent paranoid thriller, and deftly executed a wonky legal drama. Season 4 was to be the “captive” genre a la Misery and The Silence of the Lambs. And it successfully was…until the season’s final episode goes way, way off the reservation....

Every World of Warcraft expansion introduces buffs, nerfs, and changes to classes that impact their overall power level. Dragonflight is no different. However, Dragonflight happens to include a few additional changes that make it one of the most impactful WoW expansions in recent memory. Thanks to the expansion’s new (or revamped) skill tree system, nearly every class in Dragonflight has “enjoyed” sweeping changes that have impacted their standing in the PvE meta....

The latest film from screenwriting adaptation chief extraordinaire, David Koepp, You Should Have Left begins on a marriage that already seems to be preternaturally doomed: successful and very middle-aged Conroy (Kevin Bacon) has started a family with the much younger Susanna (Amanda Seyfried). But there’s a hidden history for each party before their May-December nuptials, with Susanna being a movie actress with dark secrets, and Conroy carrying the baggage of being accused of murder in his past....

We’ve fought so many final bosses over the last 30+ years. Whether they’re godly megalomaniacs or bloodthirsty loners out to prove they’re the best, there are pleny of cheap-ass villains standing in the way of character-specific epilogue cutscenes. So I’ve decided to rank the 50 best final bosses in fighting game history. This ranking includes both default final bosses and special secret bosses, but they have to be the last guy you fight....

A Discovery of Witches, like Outlander, is one of the few big-budget genre TV shows that is also unabashedly romance. Based on the All Souls trilogy by Deborah Harkness, the screen adaptation follows Diana Bishop (Teresa Palmer), a historian and witch who, after discovering a bewitched manuscript in Oxford’s Bodelian Library, is pulled further into a world of magic and danger she has been trying to avoid since she was young....
