The upcoming Black Widow solo movie highlights the fallacy of a major criticism that the DCEU has been confronted with. The film is set for release on May 1, 2020 and will take place between the events of 2016’s Captain America: Civil War and 2018’s Avengers: Infinity War. Black Widow will reportedly feature an appearance from Tony Stark, though the full extent of his role is unknown at this time....

Blade Runner 2049 director Denis Villeneuve has offered a defense of the film’s ultra-secretive marketing campaign. Though the long-awaited sequel to Ridley Scott’s sci-fi classic is a critical darling that earned widespread praise for everything from its production values to acting, it struggled at the box office in its opening weekend. Performing well below expectations, 2049 debuted with just $32.7 million, causing some to wonder what went wrong. The hope is Blade Runner has strong legs over the course of the month, but odds are it won’t be the massive hit it needed to be to warrant the whopping $185 million production budget....

Blake Lively’s The Rhythm Section has moved back exactly nine months, from a February 22 to November 22 release date. The film is based on the novel by Mark Burnell (who also wrote the script) and is designed to serve as the beginning of a potential franchise for its star. However, it’s been obvious for a while now that the movie would end up being delayed, given the absence of a trailer or marketing of any kind....

Blasphemous is a perfectly competent “Souls-like” game, but while it’s high on stark beauty and vicious violence, it comes up short on substance. Stop me if you’ve heard this one before: Blasphemous is a lot like Dark Souls. That may be one of the most hackneyed and reductive things to say in contemporary games criticism, but in this case, there’s simply no ignoring the similarities. The Souls series has had a tremendous influence on all sorts of modern video games, but there’s a fine line between “inspiration” and “imitation....

Better Call Saul has returned to rave reviews with the pilot episode setting up everything else in store over the coming season. However, like any good opening of a show, it’s given us plenty of questions that we’d really love the answer to. In just one short hour we were given more character development, shown exactly what everyone is up to next, with the series pretty much picking up exactly where we left off....

The Suicide Squad may have been a box office juggernaut and given the world Margot Robbie’s headlining Harley Quinn. But with Birds of Prey now heading towards release, Warner Bros. is cutting all ties possible to shift the focus to Harley Quinn’s future, instead. Sorry, Joker. This may all be confirmation at this point, since the writing has been on the wall for months, if not years. After Suicide Squad took a beating with critics, the moves to lift Robbie’s Harley out of the franchise and into one of her own started almost immediately....

Black Panther will introduce viewers to a whole new corner of the Marvel Cinematic Universe. Some key characters were introduced in Captain America: Civil War - most notably the title character himself - while others are about to make their big-screen debut. The movie takes viewers to the fictional African nation of Wakanda, a tribal civilization ruled over by the new king T’Challa. Many of the key characters are part of Wakanda’s royal family, while others are important tribal leaders....

BMW has denied a report in the German car magazine that it is developing or building a car for Apple, but not responded to a claim suggesting that Apple may be developing an ‘operating system’ for its i3 electric car. Auto Motor Sport claimed that Apple was in discussion with BMW about the possibility of developing an electric car based on the BMW i3, following numerous reports that the Cupertino company plans to develop an Apple Car....

For years now, we’ve been promised exciting new battery technologies that claim to dramatically boost battery life, and none of them ever seem to materialize. But a new Apple patent application describes a simple way to achieve a worthwhile increase in battery life with nothing more high-tech than a metal housing. The invention is a little ironic, as it solves a problem Apple originally created back in 2015 with the batteries in the 12-inch MacBook, before subsequently adopting the same tech in the rest of the MacBook lineup …...

AMC’s Better Call Saul has upgraded the character of Lalo - played by Tony Dalton - to a series regular for season 5. After a mention in season 2 of Breaking Bad and a reveal in season 4 of Better Call Saul, Lalo is taking on a full-time role as the series’ main antagonist. Created by Vince Gilligan and Peter Gould, Better Call Saul is a spin-off of Gilligan’s brainchild Breaking Bad....

Turns out that even the smartest people in the world are not smart all the time. In fact, they’re human just like the rest of us. They put their pants on one leg at a time. Of course, that doesn’t include Sheldon Cooper. He really is the smartest. Just ask him, he’ll tell you. However, his friends seem to overlook his many flaws. To be fair, they’re not the only ones....

New rumors suggest Andi Mack star Peyton Elizabeth Lee is being eyed for the role of Cassandra Cain in Birds of Prey. Following the success of Wonder Woman, the future of the DC Universe continues to look female. Bringing Margot Robbie back has been a priority, with Robbie especially being drawn to Birds of Prey. Once Warner Bros. hired Cathy Yan to direct the project, this Harley Quinn led movie has become the priority....

The Black Lightning co-showrunner teases what makes the show so different than the other shows in the Arrowverse, and the possibility of it crossing over with Arrow, Supergirl, The Flash, or Legends of Tomorrow. Over the past five years The CW has carefully crafted one of the more surprising connected live-action universes that audiences have ever seen, with annual events that bring together all of their different shows and heroes in massive team-up episodes....

In just a short while since its release, Black Panther has become a global phenomenon. Raking in big bucks at the box office while being ranked among the best films of all time, Marvel’s Black Panther really has taken the world by storm. With great direction, cinematography, action and script, the film is a joy to watch and one of the reasons for its success is that the movie also features an ensemble cast worthy of the Gods....

Rise of the Black Panther #2 retells T’Challa’s journey to becoming king—including his first encounter with Namor the Sub-Mariner. Black Panther just broke another MCU box office record this past weekend by passing The Avengers for highest second weekend and becoming the quickest film to hit $400 million domestically. Along with critics (who have showered the film in praise), audiences clearly can’t get enough of the world of Black Panther and its characters....

Warning: This post contains SPOILERS for Black Panther The mid-credits scene attached to Black Panther was at one time considered for the film’s actual ending. The Marvel Cinematic Universe has developed its own tropes and traditions throughout the first 10 years. While Black Panther does a great job dodging traditional villain tropes, it does stay true to the Marvel formula in key instances. One of Marvel’s signature moments is their use of mid and post-credits scenes, which has since sparked a resurgence of them appearing in Hollywood....

Blumhouse is going to make the Magic 8 Ball movie after coming to a deal with Mattel Films. Over the last decade, Blumhouse has become the premier destination for low-budget but highly-profitable films. In doing so, they’re responsible for some incredibly successful movies as of late, such as Get Out and franchises in Happy Death Day, Paranormal Activity, and The Purge. They traditionally have stayed in the horror/thriller genre and not relied on significant brands to draw in crowds....

Here’s what happens at the end of Boo 2! A Madea Halloween. Tyler Perry - and his famous creation Madea - made his big-screen debut in 2005’s Diary Of A Mad Black Woman. The low-budget comedy was based on Perry’s play of the same name and the movie became a runaway success in the U.S. Perry followed up with a slew of Madea movies, including Madea’s Family Reunion, Madea Witness Protection, and 2019’s final installment A Madea Family Funeral....
