Now we have a new leak, and it’s one of the most compelling yet. The clip originally comes from the Instagram account of stunt person Emely Cartagena (then tweeted by actor Ivory Aquino), who doubled for Batgirl star Leslie Grace during action sequences. It shows Cartagena as Batgirl leaping from a ledge, doing a wobbly flip, and landing on a bright red Christmas tree, where she brings the whole thing down in front of fleeing partygoers....
If box-office receipts are any indication, you’ve probably watched Doctor Strange in the Multiverse of Madness at least once. You may have loved it, thrilled by Sam Raimi’s wild direction and its gnarly imagery. Or you may have hated it, disappointed by its nonsensical plot decisions and waste of talented actors. Whether you’re all in or all out on Multiverse of Madness, the latest MCU entry has connections to a bevy of other cinematic offerings....
“If you know the comic book mythology, then you know where his pain comes from,” Johnson wrote in an Instagram post. “His rage. His wife and children killed. His people brutally enslaved. He is not a superhero, but rather a champion. Champion of the poor and beaten down. Champion of the people. And he is the most unstoppable force in the DC UNIVERSE.” Johnson has been attached to the role of Black Adam for many years now, and it’s clear he has both done his homework and put considerable thought into what makes the character tick....
Williams first appeared in 2016’s Invincible Iron Man #7, written by Brian Michael Bendis and drawn by Mike Deodato, as a young genius inspired by Tony Stark. In the issues that followed, Williams reverse-engineered Stark’s Iron Man armor to deal with a threat, eventually earning her own suit. In her solo series and in the teen team-up book The Champions, Williams has continued to evolve the armor into something more sleek and personal, less beholden to Stark’s aesthetic....
King Canute, or Cnut, “the Great” was Emma of Normandy’s second husband. He became King of England, Denmark, Norway, and part of Sweden. He was a Danish prince who invaded England in 1015 and became King in 1016 after both his rivals–Emma’s first husband Æthelred the Unready and her step-son Edmund Ironside–remarkably, and conveniently died. Canute married Emma to cement his rule of England, and later inherited the Scandanavian thrones....
Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2 has 51 weapons, and more will likely be added to the game via future updates. Just because the game has over 50 ways to kill opponents, though, doesn’t mean players can use all of those guns right out of the gate. If you visit the Gunsmith tab in the Multiplayer Loadout menu as soon as you hop into Modern Warfare 2‘s multiplayer mode, you’ll will find that there are only a few weapons at your disposal....
As noted by Call of Duty News, it seems that the files related to these skins were included in the most recent Call of Duty patch (which you can read a breakdown of right here) but the plan seems to be to actually release them sometime down the road (most likely in time for Warzone‘s previously uncovered Halloween event). Nevertheless, a seemingly reliable leak means that you can get a sneak peek at these new skins right now....
Fuller scored an impressive 16 points in his two minutes on Doctor Who, and increased that to a total of 29 after the General Knowledge round. He won the episode and went on to become the 1993 series champion, answering questions on the Crusades and the Medieval Castle in the British Isles as his two other specialist subjects. When the BBC recruited four Doctor Who trivia fans for a special Mastermind episode in 2005 to coincide with the show’s revival, Fuller – who had since become head of The Telegraph’s reference library and went on to write about Doctor Who for the newspaper – helped to set the questions (his own questions in 1993 were set by former Who executive producer John Nathan-Turner)....
As an adult, I don’t fancy the film as much, but I realized the allure of Candyman was that he was a terror specific to the Black community despite the circumstances of his death. I knew as a child that housing was an issue for poor people and how the main character from the first film, interloper Helen Lyle (Virginia Madsen), disrupted the lives of the inhabitants in the Cabrini Green housing project....
Yes, that Chris, the one Mark Ruffalo doesn’t want you to be mean to on Twitter. But even if you think he’s the “worst Chris” and should be replaced in the Pantheon of Chrises by Chris Messina, Nintendo clearly loves Marvel’s Star-Lord, Parks and Recreation‘s Andy Dwyer, and Jurassic World‘s Owen Grady. After all, the company wants him to be the voice of its most iconic character (and arguably the most recognizable figure in video game history)....

Read on to find out when your favorite holiday specials will be airing or streaming and learn how to find some new favorites!...
Netflix has revealed that Cobra Kai Season 3 will premiere on the platform on January 8, 2021. That key disclosure settles over a year’s worth of speculation regarding the arrival of the show’s surreptitiously-completed third season, which was initially produced for its previous home, YouTube Premium, before an acquisition by Netflix gave the series an exponentially bigger streaming platform. Indeed, Cobra Kai is proving to be a small-pond-born big fish that managed to thrive in the vastness of its new Netflix ocean, with the August arrival of the show’s two existing seasons having recently topped Nielsen’s streaming top 10 with 2....
Released in 1986, screenwriter/director Stephen Herek’s debut feature, Critters, was a little late to the monster comedy game, but Herek tried to work that to his advantage. Deny it as he might (and has), Critters is both an amalgam and homage, offering both spoken and unspoken nods to some of the most popular sci fi and monster films from earlier in the decade. The film opens like so many third-tier sci fi films from the era (think Krull, Enemy Mine, or even Ice Pirates), with a group of eight condemned Crites escaping from their cell aboard an interstellar prison transport ship and attacking the crew....
Curb Your Enthusiasm Season 9 Episode 9 It’s remarkable how much Curb Your Enthusiasm season 9 episodes tend to improve as they go along. Perhaps this has always been the case throughout the show’s run. Though I’ve only really noticed it now as I’ve watched this season with a critical eye. The setups of season 9 all tend to be groan-inducing and “The Shucker” is no exception. Oh we’re going to have an episode revolve around a “shucker” who merely shucks oysters for the 1% at Hollywood dinner parties (played by Steven Weber)?...
While console gamers are largely out of luck when it comes to viable ways to control Cyberpunk 2077‘s performance (it seems that the Xbox Series X is the only console that offers multiple performance options), the PC version of the game includes a suite of settings that allow you to run Cyberpunk 2077 as smoothly as possible (assuming your PC meets the minimum performance requirements). So if you’re one of the many PC gamers who weren’t able to get their hands on one of 2020’s best new GPUs, then you can greatly improve Cyberpunk 2077‘s FPS and other key performance metrics just by trying a combination of some of these settings adjustments....
In the series, K. Faraday (Chiwetel Ejiofor), is the home planet help requested by Thomas Jerome Newton, the character Bowie played in Nicholas Roeg’s 1976 film. The drone protégé of the mysterious Anthean scientist suffers an existential crisis and finds inspiration through a base human instinct. Moonage Daydream documents Bowie’s career with the most human touch. It is narrated by Bowie, himself, through interviews and clips presented in multiple formats....
Sorry, got lost there. They aren’t just going to reintroduce the character like Jameson, though. We’re getting Deadpool 3 and it’s going to be rated R. This will be a sequel…but in a different continuity than its first two films. Interesting novelty. Deadpool 3 is the ultimate wild card because we don’t really know how it’s going to really work. Just the idea of Deadpool 3 being part of MCU canon fills the room with elephants....
Twenty-four hours ago, most would have counted Rogue Squadron among the many Star Wars movies that never came into fruition. Originally announced in 2020 with Patty Jenkins as director, Rogue Squadron promised to tell a new story about the famed X-wing fighters that would “move the saga into the future era of the galaxy,” according to the official description. But after Jenkins decided to prioritize making a third Wonder Woman movie with Gal Gadot for WB, Rogue Squadron went on the backburner and most considered it canceled....
ITV must be feeling confident about the nation’s emotional resilience. While other channels are scheduling there-there comfort shows to hug us through These Unprecedented Times (there’s a new James Herriot on 5, and the BBC has just finished series four of Strike – a murder show, yes, but one overwhelmingly focussed on the immediate and pressing need for its two comely leads to start boning), ITV brings us the true crime tale of serial killer Dennis Nilsen....
To that end, they’ve released a sizzle reel with highlights from recent years, and teases of what’s next on their theatrical agenda, from Black Widow this July to Guardians of the Galaxy in May of 2023. There’s lots to get excited about in between, including the first look at footage from The Eternals, and what seems to be a promise about where the Fantastic Four movie sits on the MCU Phase 4 priority list....
