In the pantheon of great movie villains, Darth Vader is in a league of his own. Intimidating, tragic, and sporting arguably the most iconic suit of armor ever assembled, Vader is a pillar of popular culture – a figure by which the mere imitation of his breathing sends chills down our spines. Vader cast a towering shadow over the heroes of the original Star Wars trilogy, and, as evidenced by the unhealthy fandom of his grandson Kylo Ren, he continues to linger in the minds of the new generation....

Cyberpunk 2077 will not allow players to violently attack children or story NPCs who are essential to the narrative, according to recent correspondence between a Reddit user and a representative from developer CD Projekt Red. Cyberpunk 2077 controversy hasn’t been difficult to find over the last few months, and players have been routinely broaching sensitive subjects with CD Projekt Red developers in order to get a better feel for what sort of rules are in place for the game’s open-world....

Dev Patel will play David Copperfield in a new adaptation co-written and directed by Veep creator Armando Innucci. Based on the Charles Dickens novel, the upcoming adaptation will set the story in modern times. The Dickens novel is so popular that it has been adapted numerous times before, into six live-action films, two animated films, and five miniseries. This newest version is co-written by Simon Blackwell and produced by Iannucci and Kevin Loader....

Discovery is currently working on a revival of their mid-2000 reality series, American Chopper. The series ran for six seasons from 2003 to 2010 and featured father and son Paul Teutul Sr. (also known as Senior) and Paul Teutul Jr. (who goes by Paulie or Junior), respectively as they man the family business of manufacturing chopper-style motorcycles at Orange County Choppers in Newburgh, New York. Of course, American Chopper wouldn’t have lasted as long as it did if it did not have the classic reality trope of extreme family tension, exactly what Senior and Junior had together....

Charlie Bean is set to direct a live-action/CGI hybrid remake of Lady and the Tramp for Disney’s streaming service. Disney is not slowing down their plan to bring beloved animated movies to life once again. While we’ve already seen movies like The Jungle Book and Beauty and the Beast, they’ve also lined up The Lion King, Aladdin, Mulan, and others to hit the big screen over the next couple of years alone....

Anthem is fun. It really is. BioWare dropped the ball with Mass Effect: Andromeda last year, but it looks like they are starting to get back on the right track with next year’s Anthem. The game has been described as a multiplayer action RPG, but not an MMO. Sound familiar? It should, because that’s pretty much what Bungie was trying to do with Destiny, just without the RPG stuff. Instead, they wanted to bring the first-person shooter genre into an open world adventure that could be played with friends as an everlasting experience....

Captain Marvel plays a key role in Marvel’s current Infinity Countdown event, but the last thing readers expected to see was a glimpse of Brie Larson’s version of the hero. Surprisingly, though, that’s exactly what a preview for next week’s Infinity Countdown: Captain Marvel has revealed. The Infinity Countdown event has featured the return of the Infinity Stones, with each Stone possessed by a different hero or villain. Carol Danvers has successfully recovered the Reality Stone, and she’s using it to phenomenal effect....

For nearly as long as there have been video games, there have been video games based on popular comic book properties. From cultural icons like Batman and Spider-Man to harder-edged favorites like Deadpool and Spawn, just about any every notable comic book hero has been the star of their own game at this point. Johnny Blaze - aka stunt biker turned demonic bounty hunter Ghost Rider - is no exception, having starred in a tie-in game for the PS2 that coincided with the release of the 2007 Ghost Rider movie starring Nicolas Cage....

MGM’s Candyman reboot from producer Jordan Peele finds its director in newcomer Nia DaCosta, helmer of acclaimed indie drama Little Woods. Perhaps epitomized by the smash critical and commercial success of Ryan Coogler’s Black Panther, Hollywood seems to be going through a renaissance when it comes to major films starring black actors and made by black filmmakers. The movie industry seems to have finally woken up to the idea that moviegoers want more variation in the variety of stories told through film, and the variety of people telling them....

CleanMyMac X by developer MacPaw is releasing a new category today called Suspicious Apps in its Uninstaller module that quickly identifies, reviews, and removes apps originating from Russia and Belarus to protect users from potential cyber threats. MacPaw explains that ever since the war in Ukraine began, cyberattacks have increased dramatically. With legislation in Russia allowing the government and affiliated companies to access private information stored on servers in the country without user consent or a court decision, the developer believes apps made or hosted in Russia and Belarus may spy on users, steal their data, or even harm their computers....

The classic 1982 horror anthology film Creepshow is set to be adapted into a streaming TV series, with Walking Dead’s Greg Nicotero producing. More than any other genre of fiction, horror seems well-suited to the short story format. After all, it doesn’t need to take more than a few minutes to deliver a good scare to those looking to get a quick fright fix. That’s just as true when it comes to horror tales told via movies or TV, which is likely why horror is far and away the genre with the most anthology films or shows, with sci-fi its only real rival in that regard....

Fan petitions demanding changes to popular movies and TV series have grown in popularity over the past few years. They’ve covered a wide array of topics and, while some ended up influencing the discussion like the rehiring of James Gunn for Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 3 following Dinsey’s firing, while a majority of them remain ineffective. However, the latest one campaigning for Marvel to bring Iron Man back to life following his death in Avengers: Endgame is possibly the worst thus far....

T’Challa debuted in Marvel comics in 1966, not with a run of the mill superhero origin story, but as the king of an African nation called Wakanda. In the 50 years since, he’s become an integral part of the Marvel comic book universe as a member of the Avengers, a politician, the husband of an X-Men team leader, and a friend to superheroes all over the world. T’Challa worked since the age of 13 to make sure his country was a leader in technology, even though he kept Wakanda isolated from the rest of the world....

One of the more contentious ongoing debates in cinema is whether Deckard in Ridley Scott’s Blade Runner is a replicant or not. Over the course of the three decades and seven cuts of the film since its release, fans have broken down any and every piece of symbolism, line of dialogue and corner of set-design in order to try and develop some sort of concrete theory. All of which has consistently come to the same outcome: probably, but also probably not....

Only a few episodes into Season 12 of Ink Master: Battle of The Sexes, one contestant, in particular, has already stood out above the rest: the 27-year-old tattoo artist from Lansing, Michigan, Cam Pohl. He entered the competition with a fiery focus and unyielding confidence, making a name for himself all over the country with his versatile tattoo styles and ability. Cam’s focus, confidence, and artistic mastery had put a target on his back since day one of the competition, and the other Ink Master contestants clashed with his straight forward personality as early as episode one....

The upcoming MCU flick will introduce Carol Danvers - the first female headlining character in the franchise played by Brie Larson.
