Senior Writer at GeekVibesNation - I am a 50 something child of the 70’s who admits to being a Star Trek/Star Wars/Comic Book junkie who once dove head first over a cliff (Ok, it was a small hill) to try to rescue his Fantastic Four comic from a watery grave. I am married to a lovely woman who is as crazy as I am and the proud parent of a 18 year old boy with autism. My wife and son are my real heroes.

It just goes to follow that if you film scenes for a movie that are supposed to take place in Prague, you eventually will go there, if possible. Based on a report from the Prague Reporter, that is exactly what Sony Pictures and Marvel Studios, Spider-Man: Far From Home is doing now as they are filming scenes in the Czech Republic this month. The majority of the principal photography  has occurred in London, which included some set pieces that were supposed to represent Prague. Thus it makes sense for the production to go there for authenticity and for the film makers…

When Norman Reedus isn’t killing zombies in The Walking Dead, he is an avid motorcycle rider. Thus it comes as no surprise that if given a chance to play a Marvel character, he would play Ghost Rider or perhaps even the Silver Surfer. Reedus was asked which Marvel role he’d take during a recent Walker Stalker Cons: An Evening with Norman & Jeffrey’ event. These are events where he appears alongside Walking Dead co-star Jeffrey Dean Morgan to answer fan’s questions. He replied: “Ghost Rider would be fun. Silver Surfer would be fun. Silver Surfer is awesome.” The connection to…

When we last got together, we had discussed the first actor who played The Mountain. After the first season of Game of Thrones was completed and as Season 2 approached, the casting for the “Mountain” became an issue as the actor who played the role (Conan Stevens) in Season 1 was working on other projects and was unavailable. Fortunately, they found a stopgap solution for Season 2 right on their set, as the “Mountain” saga continues (sounds like a soap opera intro): In Season 2, Ser Gregor is left to command Harrenhal in Tywin’s absence and to find and destroy…

That doesn’t mean we wouldn’t eventually do something, but the goal is just to make a great Stargirl show right now, and — if it happens to interconnect in the future with other things — great.” As…

For a series that has went through 6 different films, you would think that the main character would have no mysteries left to solve. With the latest version of Halloween, Director David Gordon Green plans to bring back the mystery of the Michael Myers character the way it was when he first appeared. To accomplish this he has decided to not acknowledge some of the plot details shown in previous movies, including losing the idea of Jamie Lee Curtis character of Laurie Strode being Michael’s sister. Green in an interview with the L.A. Times explains: “Michael Myers hasn’t evolved as…
