What If The Jedi Won Order 66?
The Star Wars franchise is so big that we, as fans, sometimes wonder, “What if?” kind of in the vein of Marvel’s What If…? Not just from a behind the scenes perspective, but also from an in-universe perspective. Star Wars has dabbled in such scenarios via the Infinites comics in the past that were published by Dark Horse Comics, such as what would have happened if Luke Skywalker’s proton torpedoes had missed at the end of A New Hope. Of course, outside of the officially licensed releases, there is also fanfiction.

Samuel L. Jackson Returns As Nick Fury On Disney+
Nick Fury has become one of Marvel’s best known characters over the years. The version of the character who appeared in the Ultimate Marvel universe was based on the appearance of Samuel L. Jackson, and it was very satisfying to see Jackson portray the character on the big screen. Fury has been a staple of the Marvel Cinematic Universe ever since he appeared in the post-credit scene for Iron Man back in 2008. The inclusion of the character was effective in hinting at a larger world, which few people could have imagined becoming as big as it is on the screen in live-action form. He was instrumental in bringing the Avengers together, fighting for SHIELD when HYDRA revealed itself to be active in 2014’s Captain America: The Winter Soldier, and helping Captain Marvel in 1995, where we got to see a younger and more lighthearted Fury (as well as an underwhelming reason for his eye-patch).

'The Antenna' - Indie Film Review
The Antenna is a story about a dystopian Turkey where the government tries to control and manipulate society. The way they control the society is by installing TV antennas to homes throughout the country. Set in a crumbling apartment building that is owned by by Cihan (Levent Unsal) and superintendent Mehmet (Ihsal Onal). The latter has to supervise the installation of the new antenna. That is, until the installer falls from the rooftop and dies. After that, things start getting very strange as a new broadcast called The Midnight Bulletin starts to broadcast at midnight. The viewers are pretty much being hypnotized. With the mystery of the black ooze that possesses them once they touch it, everyone starts killing each other. This film has the feel of 2009’s The Signal and a vibe comparable to Dark City and Jacob’s Ladder. As you continue reading this review, be aware that it may be mildly spoilery.

Earlier this week, Uber Eats nearly broke the internet with its latest ad campaign featuring two of the world's most iconic actors of sci-fi television and film seemingly at odds with each other.
