Surf's Up Dudes: Stan Lee Wants To See Another Silver Surfer Movie
It is time to head to the cosmos once more, because legendary comic book creator Stan Lee has shared his thoughts on a "galactic" idea for a superhero movie that may never come to pass.

That Nightbulb Moment: 'Game Of Thrones' Theory Reveals Shocking Link Between Bran Stark And Night King
Boo, hiss, Bran Stark is back! Alongside Bronn's attempts to take out Drogon, and Cersei's grip on the capital, we have seen Bran Stark become quite the unlikable little sh*t across Season 7 of Game of Thrones. Just like the rest of the surviving Starks, our little tower tumbler has been on quite a journey over the years. However, while Sansa has learned her political prowess, Arya has adopted her "faceless" lifestyle, and Jon Snow can seemingly survive anything, there is still a major question mark hanging over Bran Stark's endgame.

Bat's All Folks: The Voice Of Batman Says There Are No New 'Arkham' Games Coming
It looks like it could be time to initiate the "Knightfall" protocol, because Batman video games as we know them have just been put out to pasture. Picking up from a convoluted history of dire Batman games (apart from the Lego ones), Arkham Asylum brought a shining light to the gaming world of the Dark Knight in 2009 and spun it into one of the most successful franchises of all time. However, according to Batman himself, it could be time for the Caped Crusader to hang up his cape in the Batcave for the foreseeable future.

It looks like Daniel Craig and 007 will get to "Bond" with fandom at least one more time, and the hunky hero is officially on board for Bond 25 after seeming to abandon his post. The blue-eyed and blonde Bond bombshell has taken 007 on quite the adventure over the past 11 years and four films of playing the character, but with the possibility of a James Bond cinematic universe, no one was buying that cinema is quite done with our deadly secret agent just yet. However, after a slew of negative comments aimed at the franchise from Craig himself, where do we go from here?

Look Who's Walking Now: 'The Walking Dead' Creator Suing AMC In $1 Billion Lawsuit
It appears that it isn't just baseball bat-wielding madmen and eye-patched psychopaths that are out for blood when it comes to AMC's The Walking Dead. The Walking Dead may be AMC's flagship show and sitting pretty as the most-watched show on network television, but the latest bout of behind-the-scenes drama could bury our zombie big-hitter like its decomposing walkers.

'Water' Way To Go: Science Proves Jaime Lannister Should've Died On 'Game Of Thrones'
Uh oh, we've got that sinking feeling when it comes to that latest plot twist on HBO's Game of Thrones. With Season 7 kicking it up a gear in the action stakes, our most intense episode came courtesy of "The Spoils of War" as Queen Daenerys torched her Lannister forces.
