12 Facts You Didn't Know About 'Twilight'
It's hard to believe, but the phenomenon that is the Twilight series began 10 years ago. While people have had issues with the franchise, you have to admit that Stephenie Meyer was kind of brilliant with the idea. It spawned five movies, inspired the possibly even less liked franchise 50 Shades of Grey, and with its 10 year anniversary bestowed upon us even a gender-swapped version that was released called Life and Death: Twilight Reimagined.

The Nightmare Before Christmas was released in 1993 and has become a household favorite since its original release. It's all about the Pumpkin King who has seemed to have reached his midlife crisis, finding new purpose since becoming too bored with his own holiday and deciding to take over another.

Warner Bros. Bites The Bullet: 'Suicide Squad' Spin-Off 'Deadshot' Is Coming
It is a case of kiss kiss, bang bang as Warner Brothers comes back for a second round of Suicide Squad madness. It looks like even review suicide can't stop David Ayer's squad from shuffling off the mortal coil. A Batcave full of news means that will have three continuations of the franchise. Alongside the official announcement of #SuicideSquad2 and #GothamCitySirens, it looks like #WarnerBros. is looking at a #Deadshot spin-off.

Captain America: Civil War - Will Scarlet Witch tear Vision apart?
Marvel's most recent addition to the Avengers roster, Vision, played by renown actor Paul Bettany will again be seen on-screen in Captain America: Civil War. We were introduced to Paul Bettany's Vision in The Avengers: Age Of Ultron. Wherein Tony Stark with the help of Thor and Bruce Banner create the Vision. Vision is an android of differing origins. In Marvel Comics, Hank Pym, otherwise known as Ant-Man creates Ultron, who creates Vision; but in the Marvel Cinematic Universe, Ultron is a creation of Tony Stark's through the means of Loki's scepter(houses an infinity stone) and an artificial intelligence programming. Ultron unwittingly creates a suitable body for the Vision, by creating an robotic suit made of vibranium purposed for Ultron as a permanent housing for his consciousness. Vibranium is the same raw element that Captain America's shield is made up of. Unfortunately for Ultron, the Avengers get a hold of the vibranium shell and place another artificial intelligence in the android shell, in place of Ultron. The Vision.

Batman v Superman Deleted Scene Links Apokolips to Justice League (2017)
The release of Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice is now spreading a fervor of interest in the DC franchise. The DC Expanded Universe is set to become even larger as more films slated to release, premiere. The next film on DC's line-up of films is Wonder Woman (2017) which will take place in 1914 era. Wonder Woman (2017) taking place in 1914 is telling the origin of where she came from and how she came to be in the present day DC Expanded Universe. That film will delve into the past unlike where the DC' Expanded Universe is heading next, the future. Justice League-Part One (2017) is going to bring forth the future of DC'. Not only will the league will be formed, but there will also be some huge events happening during Part One and Part Two of the two part Justice League feature. Those events were teased in Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice (2016), and now a new, deleted scene has been released that gives away the entire plot of Justice League-Part One (2017). For keen movie-goers who saw Batman v. Superman: Dawn of Justice, know that the Easter eggs in the film are building up to an inevitable conclusion regardless of fan theory/speculation on what the content of Justice League-Part One (2017) will hold.

A Cinematic Universe Within a Dream, Inside A Dream
What is the most resilient parasite? Bacteria? A virus? An intestinal worm? An idea. Resilient... highly contagious. Once an idea has taken hold of the brain it's almost impossible to eradicate. An idea that is fully formed - fully understood - that sticks; right in there somewhere. - Cobb (Inception)

Could Bucky Barnes Be the New Captain America Before the End of Civil War?
Captain America: Civil War is probably the most fan-ticipated superhero film all year. Yes the film has to contend with the likes of Batman v. Superman: Dawn of Justice and Marvel's R-Rated counterpart, Deadpool - but Captain America: Civil War is shaping up to be all the hype it has been built up to be. The film will cross boundaries in terms of character development as well as challenge the perceptions fans had about some of their favorite superheroes. We're bound to see some of the more strong-willed Avengers in the film act out of their usual character because of the situations they're in, it is a convoluted world the Avengers live in so every decision won't be lightly made when those decisions may determine the future of the MCU. Aside from the MCU being changed by the events of Captain America: Civil War, it seems like a major change may happen to the Avengers' main roster. The change that may have already been foreshadowed by previous Marvel films, and the Marvel comics event 'Civil War' may have already predicted this change.

Venom Movie? Carnage, Anti-Venom, Toxin, other symbiotes better additions than Spider-Man???
Spider-Man may have his cemented place in the Marvel Universe, as well as his place at Sony Studios over the past 10 years, but it'll be Venom taking on an on-screen adventure of his own in the next Spider-venture. News broke recently from Sony, revealing that the 2017 line-up for a Spider-Man movie will follow Venom as the center character of the story instead of another iteration of Spider-Man. It is a good move for Sony to place more stock in an underutilized, fan-favorite character than trying to create another interpretation of a Spider-Man origin story, which has already been done twice. Venom is known to be the counterpart of Spiderman in Marvel Comics, the two are in no way duplicates of each other but they share a lot of the same qualities. Venom has most commonly been incarnated via the character of Eddie Brock, alongside Peter Parker as Spider-Man, both characters have been reporters for the Daily Bugle, as well as both being vigilante heroes, and taking upon the Venom Symbiote willingly to become physically stronger.

A Gentleman's Challenge: Recasting the Extraordinary League
It has been reported that the League of Extraordinary Gentlemen is in line for a reboot from 20th Century Fox. The pseudo-successful film was originally released with a cast of: Sean Connery, Peta Wilson, Tony Curran, Stuart Townsend and Shane West to name a few, but seeing as it was only mildly successful, I imagine a total reboot as has been seen in several other heroic films that went through numerous recreations before they ultimately find pay dirt (IE: Superman, Batman, Fantastic Four, Incredible Hulk)
