Alien Vs. Freddie? The Horror Mashups You Never Knew You Needed!
Nope, not Freddy, it's Freddie — get away from her you silky voiced b**ch. Who in the realms of space ever thought to put Freddie Mercury in among the cast of the Alien franchise? I can see the connotation of Mercury and space, but that is where the link ends. However, internet wizard David Unger has used his magic to combine the music of Queen and the Alien Queen in one glorious video. Unger's channel offers some of the best cinematic mashups around, but for the meantime check out Freddie and the Xenomorph:
Tom ChapmanPublished 7 years ago in BeatThe Lego Batman Movie: 13 Cameos That Expand The Dark Knight's World
With his spectacular abs, gadgets aplenty and a wave of rave reviews, The Lego Batman Movie is an unequivocal hit. Focused on Will Arnett’s silly (and stubborn) version of the Caped Crusader, The Lego Batman Movie sees Batman tackle a host of super-villains, led by the Joker, voiced by Zach Galifianakis. But beating bad guys isn't the only challenge our daring hero faces — he also must confront the perils of parenthood when he accidentally adopts the young Dick Grayson (Michael Cera). And so, a hilariously madcap deconstruction of Batman — and his place in pop-culture — unfolds!
Max FarrowPublished 7 years ago in GeeksMy Observations on Movie Franchises Part Two: How To Kickstart a Franchise When It Has Lost Its Way
In the last article I focused on some of the lesson' s learned from two great movie trilogies on what to keep in mind, when building a franchise and how to approach the beginning, the middle and the conclusion of it. But what about a situation where the problem is not setting up a franchise or concluding it, but getting it properly moving again. Lets look at three examples, where a franchise has been successfully kickstarted and what we can learn from them.

Much can be said about poetry. Structure, rhymes, and play on words. All part of the poetry directory. Much less than calling it direct to me.
Crissy DXCIIPublished 7 years ago in PoetsSomething I'd Like WB and DC to Consider About 'Suicide Squad'
There’s about a ninety-eight percent chance you’re never going to see this anyway, but here it goes. Dearest WB studios, PLEASE release a "Joker cut" and a "rated R" cut of the Suicide Squad movie. I know this might seem like a moot point now almost a year later, BUT, with audiences divided on Justice League like they are, and you all still trying to figure out a formula that works for these movies (yes we can tell) wouldn't it at least be worth the effort to see if these version get a better reaction out of fans?
Hapsetshut The PharaohPublished 7 years ago in Geeks5 Comic Book Deaths - A (Glorious?) Tradition In Superhero Comics And Films
The hype for Captain America: Civil War couldn't be more intense, with rumors building that somebody dies. But as we all know, death for superheroes is something very, very different. Here, I want to look at five famous deaths, both in the comics or in the movies, and how they were undone.
Love of a Mother
She woke me in the morning, and tucked me in at night, she read me bedtime stories, when I did wrong she made it right. She was my taxi, my chef and protector and so much more, I wouldn't trade her for any price, and looking back now, I wish that I had always followed her advice.
Alyssa LactinPublished 7 years ago in PoetsNo Fairytale Ending: The Horrific Story Of Creepypasta's 'Abandoned By Disney'!
Abandoned theme parks, zombie mascots, and an Area 51-style conspiracy — just in time for Halloween. Plucked from the hellish nightmares of Walt himself, the story of Abandoned By Disney comes "first hand" from Christopher Howard Wolf, aka Redditor Slimebeast. On a par with the story of Slender Man, Abandoned By Disney is one of Creepypasta's most notorious stories. As with all these "true events" stories, the question remains — "Is there any truth in the story?" With X-Files like intuition I am here to find out, but warn you to turn back now — you will never hug Donald Duck again, ever!
