Star Wars The Mandalorian Season 3 Set Photos Reveal New Mystery Character

Delays due to the Covid-19 pandemic forced The Mandalorian to skip a year, but the good news is that Lucasfilm is filming season 3 as we speak. Star Pedro Pascal, who’s currently very busy shooting HBO’s The Last of Us adaptation in Canada, even allegedly took some time to record dialogue for the new season in a studio in Calgary in the past few weeks. Mind you, The Mandalorian season 3 still won’t hit Disney+ until the second half of 2022 at the earliest, but at least we know it’s coming....

Star Wars What The Boba Fett Disney Series Could Be About

The Legends continuity of Expanded Universe books and comics spent a lot of time exploring Boba Fett’s later adventures after Return of the Jedi, and while those stories are no longer canon, it’s clear that Disney has long wanted to follow suit on screen — originally with a live-action movie and now with The Mandalorian. But it seems the infamous bounty hunter’s return won’t just be contained to one popular Disney+ series....

Star Wars Fans React To The Mandalorian Season 2 Finale

The Mandalorian finished up its second season on Disney+ this week – leaving Star Wars fans beside themselves with a mixture of glee and sadness – as Ant-Man director Peyton Reed returned to helm a storming eighth episode, and WHAT a finale it was. Din Djarin’s relentless quest to retrieve Grogu from imprisonment aboard Moff Gideon’s light cruiser reached its climactic moments in the finale, with Din (Pedro Pascal) not only having to contend with Gideon (Giancarlo Esposito) and his powerful Darksaber, but battling an escaped Dark Trooper before he could even reach the brig where Grogu was being held....

Star Wars Has One Last Chance To Redeem The Book Of Boba Fett

The Book of Boba Fett, a series that went nowhere for its first four episodes, has in the span of two weeks completely turned its fortunes around. But it’s not because The Book of Boba Fett is suddenly a good show. If we’re talking about the core storyline, which is ostensibly about a crime lord’s rise through the seedy underworld of Tatooine, Boba Fett is far from appointment television. So, how do you turn an inessential Star Wars series into the must-watch streaming event of the winter season?...

Stranger Things Season 4 Has The Best Nightmare On Elm Street Easter Egg Ever

A swimming pool boils and beer cans spontaneously explode. What started as a harmless suburban party ends in bedlam. Teens rush away in a panic, trampling both the living and the dead, fleeing the flames that threaten to consume them. With the light from the blaze illuminating his scarred face, Freddy Krueger raises his arms toward the mass huddled before him and proudly declares, “You are all my children now....

Street Fighter What Do Had Ken And Sh Ry Ken Actually Mean

It’s hard to find someone who doesn’t know about, or has at least seen, a Hadōken or Shōryūken. Even though the moves are primarily associated with the characters Ryu, Ken, Akuma, and Sakura, those attacks are so iconic that they are used as shorthand for Street Fighter references in other media. Audiences who have never played a round of Street Fighter more than likely know about the Hadōken or Shōryūken thanks to references in shows like Family Guy and Gravity Falls....

Superman Lois Episode 7 Inside The Man Of Steel Ending That Changes The Series

Superman & Lois Episode 7 It took seven episodes, but we’ve finally learned the secrets of the mysterious stranger who up until now has only been known as “Captain Luthor.” Since the first episode of Superman & Lois aired back in February, fans (and journalists) have been buzzing about the identity of the man under the armor who has been giving Superman a hard time, and lately, spending a lot of time with Lois Lane....

Superman Lois Reveals The Truth About Morgan Edge S Krypton Plan

Superman & Lois Episode 10 Superman & Lois episode 10, “O Mother, Where Art Thou” picks up literally at the moment where we left the show last week, with Morgan Edge revealing to Superman that he’s not only a Kryptonian, but that he may very well be his brother. There was just enough ambiguity in that reveal to leave us wondering if Edge meant it metaphorically or literally, but as this episode explains, he really did mean it....

Superman The Authority The Case For A More Compassionate Man Of Steel

The Man of Steel of Superman & The Authority looks a little different than you might expect. Graying at the temples, a hint of smile lines around his eyes, and a capeless outfit that looks equally ready for some serious work in a laboratory or a super-powered street fight. It’s an older, wiser, Superman, sporting a look befitting a man with a teenage son and years of experience under his belt, and he brings all the patience and wisdom that you’d expect him to have as he reaches superheroic middle age....

Tales Of The Walking Dead Episode 2 Introduces A Shocking Sci Fi Element

One of the things Tales of the Walking Dead co-creator Channing Powell promised fans was something different. Powell said in an interview with Den of Geek that the show would “push the boundaries of the universe” and that the show “wanted to present a new option” for fans of long-running zombie television series The Walking Dead and its various spinoff properties. Given the sheer breadth of the franchise’s offerings, from the many web-only minisodes to the Talking Dead chat show to wrap up the night, that’s quite a task....

The 100 Series Finale Lexa S Appearance Explained

There are several surprising moments during The 100 Season 7 finale, from Emori’s death to Octavia’s last-minute pep talk that stops humanity from killing itself, to the judgment that Clarke Griffin is be doomed to spend the rest of her days alone because she killed the monster who rendered her daughter unable to move or speak. (Eye-roll forever.) However, the final hour’s most shocking revelation has to be the long-awaited return of fan favorite Alycia Debnam-Carey as Lexa....

The Batman Deleted Scene Reveals Joker In Arkham

The Batman has given fans plenty to talk about. But the most pressing topic of conversation may very well be Barry Keoghan’s character, billed in the credits as “Unnamed Arkham Inmate.” Shown only in a brief scene in Arkham Asylum, Keoghan’s character forges a bond with the Riddler (Paul Dano), suggesting that the two of them could be friends. And if there was any doubt about who this prisoner could be, all questions were drowned out by the sound of his blood-curling laugh....

The Best Korean Dramas On Netflix To Watch Right Now

Netflix has played a major role in this expansion of Korean TV into the global market. The streamer has not only scooped up an impressive backlog of Korean originals as a global distributor, but, since 2016, has been investing in the Korean TV industry at the production level. At the beginning of 2021, Netflix released an official statement announcing the leasing of two production facilities outside of Seoul, citing the move as “another important example of our continued commitment to investing in Korea’s creative ecosystem....

The Best Tv Shows Of 2020

We’re often poetic about TV around these parts. It’s no secret that we like to sing its praises as a powerful, restorative, and maybe sometimes therapeutic medium. But during a dangerous, confusing year, delving into the many ways that TV “kept us sane” or whatever feels reductive. What we can say, however, is this: TV was around this year. And that’s no small feat as not every other medium was so lucky....

A friend and bag man who sits in a car and cries while he watches his murderous orchestrations unfold in front of Pasqual’s restaurant.

The Boys Season 3 Has A Different Take On Fatherhood

In the Western pop culture canon, stories about fathers and sons will usually find an apt audience. Dating back to before even The Empire Strikes Back, (usually male) writers in genre storytelling have often used their art to unpack their history with their own respective fathers. What was the deal with that old man? Why was he so ornery all the time? Probably because he was secretly a space samurai killing people on behalf of a Galactic empire....

The Chaotic Queer Joy Of A Knight S Tale

As Maggie Tokuda-Hall summed up, “Hot people being horny on main; campy violence; himbos.” But while The Mummy is a unique modern classic, it’s not the only one to spark a bisexual awakening among fans: May I present its equally chaotic bisexual contemporary, Brian Helgeland’s delightful 2001 film, A Knight’s Tale. Layering medieval anachronism over the familiar beats of a sports narrative, only with jousting replacing football or baseball, A Knight’s Tale succeeds as both an underdog story and a postmodern pastiche....
