The wacky narratives of Brooklyn Nine-Nine owe a lot to the sitcom revolution brought about by Seinfeld (which ended about 16 years before Brooklyn even began.)

The Mandalorian season 2 has come to an end, but a fan-made stop-motion LEGO video offers a brand-new adventure for Din Djarin. The LEGO version of the bounty hunter is out tracking a new target, who he’ll have to bring in “built or broke.” Not a lot of Star Wars fans expected a much from
Not satisfied with just conquering Night City, Keanu Reeves is now ready to take on the Star Wars universe thanks to a new Star Wars Jedi: Fallen Order mod.

Disney’s ambitious plan to expand the MCU into a series format will be kickstarted with the soon-to-be-released WandaVision.

Wes Craven’s Vampire In Brooklyn attempted to make its mark as an unforgettable horror comedy, but ultimately fell flat in its delivery.

While Craven was known for crafting some of the more serious movies in the horror
Thor: Love and Thunder is fast developing into a sizeable affair, cast-wise.

In Thor: The Dark World, Darcy Lewis was there mostly to help astrophysicist Jane Foster (and act as comedic relief).

Marvel Studios could connect the Hawkeye Disney+ show to Shang-Chi and The Legend of the Ten Rings. Jeremy Renner has played Clint Barton in the Marvel Cinematic Universe for the last decade, but he is only now getting a solo project. The Hawkeye TV series will give him a starring role that expands Clint’s story in several ways. The
The Mandalorian season 2 almost saw Din Djarin say a now infamous Star Wars line. The Disney+ series provided fans with a whole lot to get excited about for the future, while also teasing a lot of the past at the same time. Dave Filoni and Jon Favreau opened the floodgates when expanding the world
Andy Buckley didn’t play a large role in Jurassic World as parents to Zach and Gray alongside Judy Greer, but these characters could certainly have been explored further if the story wanted to dive into Claire Dearing’s family more. It doesn’t seem like any of Claire’s sister’s family will be joining the conclusion to the

Sicario 3 once seemed like a given but is the sequel still happening, and what will it be about?

Kate is soon pulled into a fight
Following a recent post from Bridgerton star Reg&é-Jean Page that seemed to tease a potential interest in taking over the role of James Bond, odds on the actor taking over from Daniel Craig after No Time to Die have vastly improved. Page has quickly crept up the table as an outside favorite, with Ladbrokes’ reporting
The image itself comes from the wild credits scene of Spider-Man: Into the Spider-Verse. In it we met yet another web crawler, the futuristic Spider-Man 2099.

A new report reveals that HBO’s key audience dropped by more than half following the end of its hit fantasy series Game of Thrones. The show, based on George R.R. Martin’s A Song of Ice and Fire novels, was a genuine pop culture phenomenon, crossing over demographics and becoming a cultural touchstone for the eight seasons

Tom Hiddleston is reprising his role as Thor’s ne’er-do-well brother in the upcoming show, which will debut on the streaming service later this year.

Captain Marvel is set to premiere this weekend on TNT, which marks its TV debut. This is probably good news for casual Marvel fans who may have missed it, or for those who may want to put it on their DVR. But in what might be referred to as an odd flex, the cable network
So taking all this information into consideration, it certainly sounds like Wonder Woman 1984 did gangbusters on HBO Max. However, that’s just on the surface.

Army of the Dead has a great Justice League Easter Egg. The discovery was made earlier this week when the first-look images from Snyder’s upcoming zombie heist movie were unveiled.
