The Marvel Cinematic Universe may still have a firmly beating heart, but with Spider-Man: Far From Home and, of course, Endgame having been released, fans can fondly begin to look back on the Infinity Saga and all the wonderful superhero moments it gave us. There were countless touching moments throughout the 23-film franchise, but regardless of all the scenes that may have pulled on our comic-book heart-strings, the MCU also gave us some of the best battle scenes in film history....

Phase 4 of the MCU is packed with both big screen and television offerings, but some major characters won’t be appearing. At this year’s San Diego Comic Con event, Kevin Feige and a host of A-list stars took to the stage and revealed Marvel’s plans for the next few years, confirming releases such as The Eternals, Hawkeye and Doctor Strange in the Multiverse of Madness. Across all the upcoming projects, Phase 4 of the MCU will feature franchise veterans such as Thor, Clint Barton and Bucky, relative newcomers such as Doctor Strange, Scarlet Witch and Vision and completely new heroes such as Simu Liu’s Shang-Chi....

Week 4 of The Masked Singer reset with Group B kickoff and six brand new anonymous celebrities. With five remaining and only a handful of clues, is it enough to guess who is under the mask? In the new format this season, fans said goodbye last week to the remaining three members of Group A, until they join the super nine when they join the three finalists of the two remaining groups....

This week on The Masked Singer, group B performed for their 2nd week and the new batch of clues helped solidify the identities of the remaining four celebrities. In a battle to join Kangaroo, White Tiger, and Turtle in the Super 9, Group B saw another music legend go down. After another round of great performances, fans were divided online in their opinion of who should go. Guest panelist Gabriel Iglesias joined the team in trying to figure out who was behind the masks....

The Ant-Man movies are not the highest-grossing entries in the Marvel Cinematic Universe, but thanks to Paul Rudd’s reliable charms as a leading man, backed up by a strong supporting cast, the movies are plenty of fun. The sequences in the Quantum Realm are visually fascinating (and not to mention trippy), Luis’ unwieldy monologues are among the MCU’s funniest running gags, and the franchise’s Elmore Leonard-esque crime-caper sensibility sets it apart from Marvel’s other solo franchises....

Whether it is deleted scenes or earlier drafts, it is pretty rare that everything on the written page of a script gets into the final cut of the film. Avengers: Endgame is no exception. After years of keeping the script hidden under lock and key and then not even giving the entire script to castmembers (Robert Downey, Jr. excepted), Marvel finally released one version of the script for Academy voters to take a look at....

Marvel is rush-soliciting Neil Gaiman and John Romita Jr.‘s Eternals run back to print ahead of the film’s release. The hardcover will be coming out in July. The rushed release could mean that The Eternals film is set to follow some of the same plots as the comic. In the mid-’70s, Jack Kirby returned to Marvel and wrote The Eternals. The book told the story of a human-like alien race with God-like powers who take on the evil, mutated Deviants....

Warning: SPOILERS for Guardians of the Galaxy #8 The new line-up of Guardians of the Galaxy are without Rocket Raccoon in the Marvel Comics Universe, and fans are finally starting to find out why the mascot of the team has abandoned them. It all goes back to Rocket’s terrible origin story… which just got a lot more tragic than fans already expected. It may come as a surprise when MCU fans realize that the origin story of Rocket Raccoon hasn’t actually been addressed in the movies at all....

Hawkeye will have his hands full with both the Hood and a new Ronin in the new Hawkeye: Freefall series by Matthew Rosenberg and Otto Schmidt. This begs the question: if Clint hasn’t returned to his former role… just who is behind the mask of this new Ronin? And why are they engaging in a deadly turf war with the New York underworld? Ronin first appeared in the pages of New Avengers #11 in 2005 as a mysterious masked member of the team....

Superhero movies are the name of the game nowadays, but Marvel Studios’ increasing dominance is beginning to damage the genre. The Marvel Cinematic Universe has proved to be one of the most successful Hollywood experiments of all time. Over the last 11 years, 23 movies have collectively grossed over $22.5 billion worldwide. They appear to have redefined cinema, with rival studios desperately attempting to create their own shared cinematic universes....

The Marvel Cinematic Universe has been expanding on film since 2008’s Iron Man effectively launched the sprawling shared world that has come to include The Avengers and Guardians of the Galaxy. However, Marvel TV has additionally expanded a great deal since Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D. premiered in 2013, especially in recent years as Netflix launched their street-level corner of the MCU. Although ABC had a second Marvel TV series in the form of Agent Carter, the network cancelled the show after two seasons....

Google has silently updated the Play Store developer support page to reflect that the maximum price limit of apps and games on the Play Store has been drastically increased. In certain regions, the maximum price limit of an app has been increased by almost 3x times. The increased price limit of an app in Google Play for certain regions can be found below: Australia: AUD 0.99 – 550 Europe: EUR 0....

The Marvel Cinematic Universe has been around for quite some time now (closing in on 12 years) and the 23 movie franchise has given the world some of the biggest blockbuster battles they’ve ever seen. Dozens of unforgettable moments that will be imprinted in cinema lover’s brains for eternity, all thanks to the creative teams down at Marvel, and, of course, Stan Lee. Fans and audience members should never forget that it was a mere six films spread out over a course of four years that got this multi-billion dollar comic-book franchise rolling....

Part of the great fun of the MCU is seeing all these iconic heroes sharing the screen. The climax of Avengers: Endgame which featured virtually every Marvel hero charging into battle together was an unforgettable cinematic moment. However, sometimes it’s nice to see the heroes meet on a more personal level. These movies do a great job of finding interesting pairings with their characters, like Thor and Rocket, or Tony and Banner....

Last night, at around 11 pm, my wife told me that Alexa was no longer able to switch off any Hue lights. There happen to be a pair in use in my main bedroom as bedside lamps. Sure enough, after investigating the issue, it turned out that Philips Hue’s cloud service and Alexa skill got disconnected from my system. After attempting to reset the skill and reconnect it to my Alexa, I saw this message: This is, of course, extremely frustrating when you’ve integrated all your lighting into a smart home system....

In the MCU up to this point, there haven’t been any canon LGBT characters shown on screen or any LGBT relationships. While there have been discussions outside of the movies about some character’s queerness, and there are allegedly going to be queer characters in upcoming MCU films, this hasn’t happened yet. With so many movies and characters, it’s surprising and disappointing that there hasn’t been any LGBT+ representation in the franchise....

While the core characters on Riverdale are all high school students, their parents are just as crucial to the story and bring just as much drama. The only parents on the show who are still living together are the Blossoms, aside from Cheryl virtually all the teenage main characters are living with only one parent. Divorce, jail, and music careers keep the various parents separated, and cause conflict with how they all choose to raise their children....

When Stan Lee co-created Marvel’s Fantastic Four with Jack Kirby in 1961, he was determined to make his characters different than those in a typical superhero comic book. Chief among these differences: the Fantastic Four had no secret identities, and the public knew they had acquired their powers in an outer space mission that exposed them to cosmic rays. But that transparency isn’t exactly what fans might think. In hindsight, it seems strange that in their first comic book issue, Reed Richards, Susan Storm, Johnny Storm, and Ben Grimm choose to go by the names ‘Mr....

Fans have their first official look at Uatu in Marvel’s What If…? TV show. Marvel Studios has released 23 movies since Iron Man came out in 2008, but the studio is starting to include more TV shows in their ever-growing cinematic universe. While several live-action TV shows are coming to Disney+, What If…? will be an animated take on the Marvel characters. What If…? is an adaption of the comic books of the same name that began in the 1970s....

I know, I’ll stop going on about how much I love the new 12.9-inch iPad soon, but before I do, let’s talk about this ‘media consumption device’ myth … Reading the comments on my iPad Pro Diary entry yesterday, I realized more than one person had expressed the same view. It’s one I’ve also seen elsewhere: that Apple’s most expensive iPad may be able to justify the price if you use it for work, but the purchase can’t be justified as a media consumption device …...
