As Gotham winds through its final season it had promised a plethora of different Villains who would  make an appearance during its curtain call. Gotham’s “Rogues Gallery” if you will. So far they have not disappointed as we have seen the usual suspects of Penguin, Riddler, Scarecrow, Catwoman, Hugo Strange and Poison Ivy. We have also witnessed the start of Bane, Ecco/Harley Quinn, Magpie, The Madhatter, Jok…I mean Jeremiah, and with the latest episode, Nothing’s Shocking, they added The Ventriloquist and Jane Doe. As is Gotham’s MO, they have made some changes with the characters while still maintaining their essential essence…

Especially when you are headlining the film and when the series has struggled in the past to reconnect to audiences. Thus when Arnold told The Arnold Fans this about Terminator: Dark Fate:  I’ve seen 15 minutes and it looked great and I was very excited about it. You need to put it in the perspective that speaking in negative terms at this early stage would be detrimental to both the film and himself. If…

[vc_row][vc_column][vc_single_image image=”16914″ img_size=”800×450″ alignment=”center”][vc_column_text]50 days. 50 consecutive days. That was the amount of time the cast and crew of Game of Thrones spent filming the immense battle scene against the Night King for the final season. According to show creators David Benioff and Dan Weiss, this will exceed the scale of the Battle of the Bastards.  In terms of sheer scope, there is a lot in this season that outstrips the ‘Battle of the Bastards’ sequence so expertly directed by Miguel Sapochnik. We can say this without feeling bad, since most of it was also expertly directed by Miguel Sapochnik. That is high…

[vc_row][vc_column][vc_single_image image=”16861″ img_size=”900×500″ alignment=”center”][vc_column_text]Now that Maisie Williams has moved on from Game of Thrones, she has already found success in her next venture as the voice of Cammie McCloud in Rooster Teeth’s anime series gen:LOCK. With the little time that has elapsed since Game of Thrones, it is only natural that some comparisons might be made between the two characters. In a recent interview with Inverse, Williams talked about the two characters and the inevitable who would beat who scenario. Arya in Season 1 was very much like Cammie; their naivety and the way they question the world is something that makes them endearing. But…

[vc_row][vc_column][vc_single_image image=”16805″ img_size=”900×500″ alignment=”center”][vc_column_text]Ever since the announcement of the new Picard series by CBS All Access and Patrick Stewart, progress has steadily been moving forward on the series. Friday, it was announced that Hanelle Culpepper will direct the first two episodes of the new series and Star Trek veteran Jonathan Frakes (Will Riker from TNG) will also direct an episode. Now it has been revealed that casting has begun for the series which is described as a 10 hour movie, with a continuous story as opposed to an episodic format. The beginning of casting is revealed in a tweet by…

[vc_row][vc_column][vc_single_image image=”16823″ img_size=”900×500″ alignment=”center”][vc_column_text]I remember it well. 1974 on Saturday Mornings, I would sit down and watch the beginning of 30 minutes of superhero action with this intro: “Chosen from among all others by the immortal elders: Solomon, Hercules, Atlas, Zeus, Achilles, Mercury. Billy Batson and his mentor travel the highways and byways of the land on a never ending mission: To right wrongs, to develop understanding, and to seek justice for all. In time of dire need, young Billy has been granted the power by the immortals, to summon awesome forces with the utterance of a single word: SHAZAM!…

When Scooby Doo first aired way back in 1969, the voice actor for Shaggy was radio and TV personality Casey Kasem. He filled that role up until 2009 when he retired. His replacement, Matthew Lillard, was the man who had played the character in two live action Scooby films, 2002’s Scooby Doo and 2004’s Scooby Doo: Monsters Unleashed. Because of his involvement with the character, he might be forgiven if he would assume that he would at least get a call when Warner Bros. cast the voice talent for their upcoming Scooby Doo animated film. Apparently this wasn’t the case and…

[vc_row][vc_column][vc_single_image image=”16790″ img_size=”900×500″ alignment=”center”][vc_column_text]Way back in 1965, Gene Roddenberry has an idea for show that was different than most space shows. He described his show as a “Wagon Train to the Stars.” When NBC agreed to a pilot, they produced The Cage, which starred Jeffery Hunter as Captain Christopher Pike, Majel Barrett as No.1, and Leonard Nimoy as Spock, his half-Human, half Vulcan science officer. The first pilot dealt with their encounter with a race called the Talosians, who had great telepathic abilities. After screening it, NBC was not happy with the pilot as they considered it too cerebral for…

[vc_row][vc_column][vc_single_image image=”16780″ img_size=”900×500″ alignment=”center”][vc_column_text]I admit it. I am completely guilty. I was a huge fan of the original Scooby Doo Where Are you? I was hooked. Shaggy, Scooby, Fred, Velma, Daphne…they were like Gods to me. Of course, it was 1969 and I was 6 years old. I even liked the theme song. It rocked. Although the original series only went for three years, it has been around in one form or another ever since. Fast forward to now and Warner Bros. and it’s animation group has hired its voice cast for the next animated film about Scooby and the gang.…

[vc_row][vc_column][vc_single_image image=”14935″ img_size=”765×510″ alignment=”center”][vc_column_text]When the fifth season of Marvel’s Agents of Shield was coming to a close, it was very much up in the air whether that season would be its last. In preparation of that, the show writers made the season finale fit in that in-between realm where it could be a series finale or leave some wiggle room for another season. It was finally revealed that Agents of Shield would indeed be returning for a Sixth Season. In a surprise move, it was put out by ABC that Marvel’s longest running television show was also renewed for a…
