2020 is already shaping up to be the strongest year for sci-fi movies in ages. Between an unexpected trilogy-capping entry in a beloved ’80s series to an adaptation of one of the genre’s most celebrated novels, this new decade is already looking bright. The 2010s were ripe with memorable science fiction films. Whether they explored more grounded territory like The Martian or dove into fantastical corners of the unknown like Under the Skin, the decade had plenty of sci-fi films for the books....

WARNING: potential spoilers for Deadpool 2 ahead Deadpool 2 is a hilarious movie jam-packed with secret A-list cameos, pop culture references, and a boatload of Easter eggs. However, it had a smaller budget than many of the big-name superhero movies produced today. The original Deadpool movie had a budget of $58 million and Deadpool 2 screenwriter Paul Wernick cites that the new movie’s budget was only slightly larger. Compare this to the $1 billion budgeted for both Avengers: Infinity War and the untitled Avengers 4 movie, or the $300 million budgeted for Justice League, and you realize that Deadpool 2 did a lot with very little....

The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim puts players into the horned helmet of the Dovahkiin hero and sets them off on a quest to save the world from an ancient and powerful dragon– and they got to that eventually. However, there are many diversions that play against the urgency of the main mission. Legend says that the villain, Alduin, already ended the world once, and he plans to do it again....

In the Harry Potter universe, there are plenty of things that boggle our brains about Albus Dumbledore and Gellert Grindelwald on their own. The two brilliant but flawed characters are bound to have their idiosyncrasies, but some facts about the wizards just don’t make any sense. For example, why does Grindelwald have an English accent when he’s known to have attended Durmstrang Academy rather than Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry?...

Early on in comic book history, it was established that nearly every superhero needed a base of operations. While future generations would thank the inventors of this concept for the way that their idea allowed them to manufacture elaborate and expensive superhero secret base toys that were about as expensive as the down payment that most parents dropped on their actual homes, back then, the superhero base was a practical way for every hero to have a sanctuary that provided a little stability in their lives....

Like all kinds of artists, filmmakers can find themselves full of ideas about stories and characters. Most of the time they don’t get to present every last part of their vision in the finished product. Some story and character beats have to be cut. It can be even more frustrating to make cuts in movies because so many more people put work into shooting a movie than into writing a novel....

Now that Luke Cage has burst onto Netflix (and wowed fans and critics alike) there’s one show left in Netflix’s promised four-part Defenders universe: Iron Fist. This final series will join Daredevil, Luke Cage, and Jessica Jones in the spring, and the teasers and trailers we’ve seen so far look like it’s going to be another smash hit for the streaming service. We’ve already brought you a run down on some basic Iron Fist facts, so that casual fans can catch up on the history of the Immortal Weapon of K’un Lun, and now it’s time to delve into some of the lesser known factoids about the incredible martial artist also known as Danny Rand....

You’d think there aren’t many lines left for TV shows to cross, but even in 2018, some still manage to cause controversy. Just take a look at the recent furore over teen drama 13 Reasons Why, which caused a storm over its graphic depiction of topics, or The Handmaid’s Tale, which caused a ruckus for all the right reasons, but still contained plenty of disturbing content to traumatise viewers. Nevertheless, a few TV shows manage to take it to the next level and get themselves taken off the airwaves altogether....

Digimon, the inventive, resilient collectible monster franchise, has enough love and merchandising that it could even give Pokemon a run for its money. Ever since its inception in 1997, Bandai’s monumental property has found itself shifting from electronic pets, to card and video games, all the way to anime. Through all of these mutations, Digimon has always retained its core values of these digital monsters coming from a Digital World, with there being a group of DigiDestined who are meant to protect and work alongside them....

Mad Max: Fury Road announced itself as a groundbreaking piece of action cinema when it was released on May 15, 2015. The movie was a wall-to-wall chase, filled with inventively staged stunts that blew audiences’ minds. Moreover, it managed to be endlessly thrilling while still delivering three-dimensional characters and a plot with feminist overtones and a surprising amount of depth. Tom Hardy played the titular character, but Charlize Theron stole the show as the tough-as-nails Imperator Furiosa....

With a staggering ten years worth of films, the Marvel Cinematic Universe comprises of eighteen films, with another six entries promised for the next two years. Encompassing three phases of blockbusting comic book movies, Disney’s juggernaut franchise has seemingly employed nearly every actor in the business. Although the series has given rise to exciting comebacks such as Robert Downey Jr (Iron Man), granted established stars such as Benedict Cumberbatch (Doctor Strange) yet another franchise under their belts, and made heroes out of unknown talents like Tom Holland (Spider-Man), the multi-billion dollar MCU has worked with so many stars, it’s impossible to keep track of them all....

What Is an Injection Vulnerability? An injection happens when a bad actor sends some type of malicious data through an application. That malicious data can be relayed through the application into an external system. This relay could happen via system calls, shell commands or calls to a backend database (normally by using SQL). Injection is partly made possible when applications allow users to input data without some type of input validation, sanitation or filtering....

Mission: Impossible carved a space for itself in pop culture with its first movie, impressing audiences with exciting action and risky stunts performed by Tom Cruise himself. Since that time, each movie has raised the stakes, now culminaxted in the sixth film, Fallout. One of the main attractions is Cruise’s increasingly dangerous stuntwork, as he demands every scene be as real as possible. His stunts range from his acrobatic wirework in the first movie to climbing the tallest building in the world to performing a HALO jump from 25,000 feet....

So currently you might get to see either a 32-bit or 64-bit operating system. There is absolutely no difference in both of these systems, they are 100% alike with all the same features and applications. Now you might be wondering which one to choose. Well, the answer is pretty simple. It depends on the processor Yeah, you read it right. Actually, the type of operating system you install depends on the type of processor you have....

While there have been plenty of memorable sibling relationships in movies and television, few have been as compelling and fun as Thor and Loki in the string of Thor and Avengers movies over the last seven years. Obviously, there is great source material that has helped set the brothers duo up for success, but what makes the competition between Thor and Loki so endearing is the actors behind the characters. Chris Hemsworth and Tom Hiddleston play off each other well and seem to have both captivated the essence of the character they play on screen....

There are a handful of USB-C portable monitors on the market, but a lot of them have mediocre reviews and include questionable trade-offs. A new Kickstarter campaign is looking to offer two compelling 15-inch USB-C portable monitors, a 4K model, and a 1080p touchscreen model which have hit over 700% funding in the first two hours. Taihe has launched its Kickstarter campaign with immediate success for its new Gemini portable monitors....

TV and movies are getting closer to each other every day, and that’s especially true when it comes to action sequences. For a long time, truly great action was reserved for films, where it seemed that budgets could go higher and better set pieces could be designed. Now, that distinction is a lot blurrier, and there are plenty of television shows that could rightly be hailed for their remarkable action sequences....

The 2017 Jeep Compass unveiled this week will be one of the first new Jeep models to add Apple CarPlay stock via the latest in-dash entertainment platform from Fiat Chrysler dubbed Uconnect 4.0.

As one of the most popular sitcoms of all-time, despite the fact that Friends ceased airing years ago, the show’s many fans recently expressed their outrage when Netflix almost stopped streaming it. With that in mind, it shouldn’t surprise anyone that many of the actors that appeared on the show look back on that moment in their life as a really big deal. Based on a myriad of different factors, people sometimes perceive similar experiences extremely differently....
