The second chapter in the original Star Wars Saga, and fifth overall, The Empire Strikes Back, isn’t just universally accepted as the best of the bunch. It’s also regarded as one of the best sci-fi movies ever, let alone movies ever.

Ever since he was introduced in Raiders of the Lost Ark, Indiana Jones has become one of the most beloved cinematic heroes of all time. The adventuring archaeologist is the perfect combination of brains and brawn with Harrison Ford grounding him as a character we can relate to. While not all his adventures have been well-received, fans are eager to see Dr. Jones appear on the big screen again. While a sequel with Ford and Steven Spielberg is apparently coming, some fans are wondering if a reboot of the franchise would be better....
Terminator: Dark Fate is the first feature film in the long-running franchise since 2015’s Terminator: Genisys. Funnily enough, it also represents the shortest gap between the sequels. The movie’s premise and sizable returning cast look promising, but fans are still in the dark on several aspects of it. Ultimately, one can never really tell until the release date. With its theatrical run less than two months away, we thought it’d be the perfect time to point out five reasons we are excited about the upcoming film, and five reasons we are still a worried....
Cats is the movie on everyone’s minds lately and the name in everyone’s mouths as soon as they’re asked, “What should we see now?” Sure, Little Women and 1917 just came out, but why see something good when you can watch Cats? Even the musical Cats has attracted decades of ire from fans who inexplicably love the production and logical viewers who think the entire thing is an absolutely bonkers mess of a story....
30 Rock is one of those shows that seems to have found more fans after going off the air. The wild and hilarious sitcom about the mayhem behind the scenes of a late-night sketch show never got huge ratings but is now a show fans rewatch over and over again. While the show is fun to revisit, like any show, some aspects age better than others. And yet there are also those parts of the show that remain as funny as ever even after all these years....

Due to the nature of my work, I write a lot. On an average day, I write around 2000 words. Earlier, when I started writing blogs, I had a less than decent computer which would crash almost every time I tried to run Google Chrome and MS Word simultaneously. That’s why I preferred writing on my smartphone. Things have changed these days and I no longer write lengthy blog posts on a 5-inch screen....
We spend 40 hours or more a week immersed in our craft, discussing strategy, tactics and results. Daily priorities often push time for exploration to the bottom of the list, and this results in a kind of tunnel vision. In the pursuit of growth, we’re hyper-focused on reading, watching and listening to more content about how to become better marketers—an admirable approach, but one that keeps education siloed within our professional discipline....

It’s interesting that the character who would come to define Mike Mignola’s entire career began as little more than a comic convention doodle. Despite the creature’s humble beginnings, something about Hellboy stuck with his creator. Details eventually began to take shape, with Mignola drawing on the unflappable attitude of his own father to flesh out Hellboy’s personality. The character made his first proper appearance in a 1993 SDCC-exclusive comic, before getting his own Dark Horse series beginning the next year....
Teen dramas are a cornerstone of television, and no matter how old we get they make for some truly compelling stories when done right. Whether those stories are tales of dysfunctional youth, alienation, romantic awakening, finding identity or families and friendships falling apart, seeing the world through the eyes of those who are still trying to make sense of growing up will always be an interesting notion. We all know The OC, Gossip Girl, One Tree Hill, and those other inconic shows which caught fire and became pop culture phenomenons in the 2000s....
24: Live Another Day quietly debunked a popular theory about 24 villain Nina Myers (Sarah Clarke). For years, fans believed that Nina Myers somehow survived being shot in 24’s season 3. Those hoping for her return will be disappointed, however, as 24: Live Another Day, the limited series event, confirmed this was never the case. In season 1, Nina was a love interest to Jack Bauer (Kiefer Sutherland), who was currently separated from his wife, Teri (Leslie Hope)....

Fans are excited to explore the Galar Region — a region inspired by Great Britain — and harness one of three new starters to embark on a fabulous adventure. However, as with all new games in any series, fans are trying to figure out what to expect....
In the Harry Potter series, the main character, Harry himself, is a little bit chaotic. He does everything for the greater good, of course, and always saves the day in his end but some of his methods are pretty questionable by authority standards. Every year, it seems he’s getting into some sort of trouble; whether it’s with the Hogwarts authorities or the actual law. Sometimes he doesn’t get caught and sometimes he does, getting away unscathed....
