Marvel Stars Defend Their Films Against DC!
This futile war is seemingly never-ending. While there are many that can enjoy both Marvel and DC, some show their favoritism more than others and this isn't limited to just the fans. Even the actors are getting involved, this time in the form of Anthony Mackie bashing DC:

'Spider-Man: Homecoming' Writers Reveal the Uncle Ben Moment We Almost Had — and Why They Cut It
Spider-Man: Homecoming gave us quintessential big-screen Spidey moments, but there was one crucial component of the web-slinger's origin story that was absent from the film. After Cliff Robertson and Martin Sheen brought Uncle Ben to life in the previous continuities, Marvel elected not to feature him in Spidey's MCU solo debut. He was alluded to, but never explicitly named in the film.

The Hunchback of Notre Dame - A 20-Year-Old, Half-Forgotten Gem
Twenty years on, and Disney is still a force to be reckoned with; it won over audiences with the recent successes of Frozen in 2013 and Big Hero 6 the year after, and legends such as The Lion King and Aladdin still bring nostalgic smiles to the faces of people aged between 20-30.

Is the Revenant Evidence of Elitism in the Oscars?
Before the internet outrage machine begins and I get mauled as viciously as Leonardo did for daring to speak ill of The Revenant, I’d like to first state that I liked the movie. Like all films, it has its flaws, but I was entertained.

Mark Hamill Reveals He Wanted to Play the Vulture in 'Spider-Man: Homecoming'
One of the most talked about aspects of the Marvel Cinematic Universe is the lack of memorable villains. Loki aside, it's fair to say that Marvel have had far more success with the villains on their Netflix shows or Agents Of S.H.I.E.L.D. than on the big screen. As the acclaimed studio look to turn this around in 2017, Michael Keaton's portrayal of Adrian Toomes in Spider-Man: Homecoming has been met with universal praise. Many fans cite the sympathetic nature of his character as one of the key factors in this success - but Keaton wasn't the only actor who wanted the role.

The 'Absolutely Fabulous' Trailer Has Absolutely Everything We Wanted!
Sweetie, darling, they're back! After seemingly leaving behind the lives of Edina Monsoon and Patsy Stone in 2005, fans of BBC's Absolutely Fabulous had always hoped for more. With a series of sporadic adverts, Comic Relief sketches and even three special episodes to commemorate the 20th anniversary, it was pretty clear we hadn't seen the last of the two Bollinger swigging socialites. The odd one-off was never going to be enough to satisfy the appetites of their cult fans, and rumours of a film version have been harder to kick than the pair's nicotine addiction. Off the back of the likes of Alan Partridge, the Ab Fab girls are the latest to make it to the silver screen with some pretty famous faces in tow.

Is THIS movie the Worst Superhero Film Ever Made?
We have been spoiled with some of the best Superhero flicks ever made, but this golden age of comic book films begs the question: why were all those bad superhero movies made in the first place? After all, there is a long legacy of great stories from the comics themselves, so why do things become awful when transferred to the big screen? I'm here to give a few thoughtful answers to that exact question, but as we contemplate that, let us first remember all of the terrible renditions of our favorite heroes with a short list (in no particular order). I've had to narrow this down to movies that I have seen, so be sure to add your own thoughts and comments on the movies I do not have listed here.

Who You Gonna Call...Dan Aykroyd? Original Ghostbusters' Cameo Revealed!
When there is something strange in your neighbourhood, who you gonna call? Unfortunately not the boys this time, in 2016 busting ghosts seems to be a woman's work. Whilst it may be Kristen Wiig, Melissa McCarthy, Kate McKinnon, and Leslie Jones stepping up to the plate to takeover the Ghostbusters, Dan Aykroyd's Dr. Raymond Stantz just can't leave the paranormal alone.

Excellent Bros! 'Bill & Ted 3' Could Start Shooting This Year!
Slipping out of the category of 'threequels' that we never thought would happen, it finally looks as if we could be taking another 'bogus journey' down nostalgia lane with a third installment of the Bill & Ted franchise. Alex Winter (Bill) has offered us an update on the long-mooted sequel, saying that it could start filming as soon as this year...and YES, it will star Keanu Reeves!
