Bounties are an ideal way of getting great loot in Marvel’s Avengers. The bounties in the game will appear as you’re progressing through missions but keep in mind that this is a random encounter. However, if you do get the chance to encounter bounties, then bear in mind that what you’re about to face in it isn’t like the common enemies that you already fought through. Involving yourself in a bounty will test your skills in the game....

Get the best look yet at some of Eternals’ characters and their powers in the latest batch of set photos. Marvel Studios will officially kick off Phase 4 of the Marvel Cinematic Universe this summer with the release of Black Widow, but it is not the only movie they’ll release in 2020. Eternals is set to close out the year on the big screen for Marvel with a November release date....

Warning: SPOILERS for Star #1 Things don’t look too good for Ripley Ryan in Star #1, by Kelly Thompson, Javier Pina, and Filipe Andrade. The superhero-turned-supervillain is still reeling from her fight with Captain Marvel, and the fallout that has cost Ripley everything. The one silver lining? She has somehow bonded with an Infinity Stone, and when Loki shows up to claim it, things quickly get out of hand. Ryan Ripley first appeared in Captain Marvel #1 as a reporter interviewing Captain Marvel....

Although he made his name as the star of some rather schlocky, trite, and conventional romantic comedies in the 2000s, Matthew McConaughey has undergone a professional shift recently. He has started giving truly nuanced performances in dramatic films. In the years since his career went through this transformative phase, audiences have been able to count on McConaughey for regular masterpieces (and a handful of duds and misfires, like that so-called “thriller” where the big twist was that he was in a video game)....

The Parent Trap will be forever be known to ’90s kids as the movie where Lindsay Lohan plays two people. Although the 1998 film is a remake of the 1961 original, it’s fair to say that the Lohan vehicle gets a lot more attention. The story of two girls who meet at camp and realize that they’re actually twins is heartwarming, charming, and hilarious. The girls decide to scheme and get their parents back together by switching places, and the result is a classic movie that features a sweet and funny cast of characters....

Mark Ruffalo, who plays The Hulk in the Marvel Cinematic Universe, said he couldn’t imagine how Disney and Sony would separate Spider-Man from the rest of the crime-fighting crew. After Spider-Man: Far From Home was released earlier this year, no one knew if or when there would be another Tom Holland-led friendly neighborhood Spider-Man movie in the MCU. Many assumed as much, but no one knew the exact details of the Marvel and Sony deal from 2015 that originally brought Spider-Man into the MCU....

Marvel has found lead writers for both their Moon Knight and She-Hulk Disney+ original shows. The Marvel Cinematic Universe has grown to incredible heights over the last 11 years through the dominance it’s displayed on the big screen. But, this summer Marvel Studios confirmed plans to make Disney+ the home to some pivotal pieces of MCU content. They announced five shows at San Diego Comic-Con and later added Moon Knight, Ms....

Marvel Studios is reportedly developing a What If animated series for Disney Plus, based on the comics that explore alternate Marvel timelines. While the studio has yet to announce their film release slate beyond this July’s Spider-Man: Far From Home, it’s been confirmed that they are currently developing multiple TV series for Disney’s upcoming streaming service (which launches in the fall). Among the live-action Marvel Cinematic Universe TV shows that are actively in the works for Disney Plus are series about Loki, Vision and Scarlet Witch, and Falcon and Winter Soldier....

A new MCU supercut takes fans through various action scenes from the Marvel Studios franchise’s Infinity Saga. Wrapping up the more than decade arc in Avengers: Endgame with Spider-Man: Far From Home acting more as an epilogue, Marvel Studios is looking forward with a slew of new upcoming projects confirmed at San Diego Comic Con last month. But while the public waits for Phase 4, there’s a fresh clip that collates some of the most memorable battle sequence in the universe....

Marlon Brando has been a true icon in Hollywood. Starting his career with the Elia Kazan magnum opuses A Streetcar Named Desire and On The Waterfront (for which he won his first Academy Award), he went on to appear in many iconic roles in the future. He was reputed for his dramatic monologues and the display of one of the earliest forms of method acting. Later, as his hair started turning grey and age began to take its toll, Brando still made the most memorable film comeback portraying Don Vito Corleone in The Godfather, a role which assured him immortality as an artist....

Master & Dynamic MW65 over-ear headphones launched this week, the company’s first ever noise-canceling headphones. For a long time, my audio loyalty was split between two companies: Bang & Olufsen and Bowers & Wilkins. That changed in 2014 with Master & Dynamic (and again in 2016 with Naim) … Despite the fact that the company had only existed for a year at the time, it was able to immediately establish itself as a serious audio player – thanks in part to the hire of a former senior mechanical engineer at Bose....

The Mystery, Inc. kids are pretty much a case study in Myers–Briggs Type Indicator® personalities, ranging from the calm, efficient Fred to the friendly, relaxed dog Scooby-Doo himself. While the team has occasionally deviated from their standard personalities, particularly when undergoing new looks for a movie or new series, at their core they’ve largely remained the same since 1969. The fact that the show remains popular to this day is a testament to its quality, but the characters and their defining characteristics are also a reason why....

Francis Ford Coppola has clarified his recent Marvel movie criticism, which kicked off major blowback from superhero movie fans. In the last decade, Superhero movies have become a multi-billion-dollar industry, with Marvel and DC releases regularly dominating the box office. As such, even films by legendary directors like Coppola are living in Marvel’s shadow. The controversy began several weeks ago when filmmaker Martin Scorsese revealed his disdain for the genre, stating that Marvel movies weren’t cinema....

The Avengers and the Fantastic Four will kick off Marvel’s Empyre event with two all-new Empyre issues. The one-shots, Empyre #0: Avengers and Empyre #0: Fantastic Four, will lead the way for what’s set to be one of Marvel’s biggest and wide-ranging events to date. Marvel has released a series of teasers for the upcoming event throughout the last month. The event is set to see former Young Avenger Hulkling lead longtime enemies, the Krees and Skrulls, into a pending attack against Earth....

AMC will be hosting a 22-film Marvel Cinematic Universe marathon in preparation for Avengers: Endgame. This month, Marvel Studios’ much-anticipated blockbuster directed by Joe and Anthony Russo with the story written by Christopher Markus and Stephen McFeely is finally hitting theaters. The direct sequel to last year’s Avengers: Infinity War, it will pick up after the events of Thanos’ wiping out half of life in the universe, leaving the remaining heroes desolate and hopeless....

If you’ve watched a science fiction film or television series in the last 50 years, chances are you’ve encountered something based on the works of Philip K. Dick. With 44 published novels and 121 short stories from the early ’50s until the early ’80s, his themes of alternate realities, authoritarian governments, virtual reality, and artificial intelligence have been widely regarded as substantially ahead of their time and incredibly important to the sci-fi genre....

The opening shot of a movie is one of the most significant – second, perhaps, only to the closing shot – because the opening shot is the first thing the audience sees. It’s what gives them their first impressions of the story and its world, so it has to grip the viewer immediately. Martin Scorsese, possibly the greatest living director, always opens his movies with a memorable shot. Pretty much every single one of Scorsese’s shots is carefully considered and meticulously crafted, so he doesn’t slack off when it comes to the very first one featured in a film....

Tap or click here to find out if you’re at risk from that breach. It’s bad enough trying to fend off hackers from digging into our personal information, but it’s even worse when it’s exposed by the carelessness of a website. This is exactly what just happened with and adult streaming site that exposed around 11 million users’ personal records....
