When it comes to any TV show, it stands to reason that each of us naturally have our favorite episodes ready to discuss whenever the occasion may rise. But if you were to press me about The Flash, I'm not sure if I could provide an answer. Heck, I'm still having a hard time choosing between seasons 1 and 2 when it comes to which I love more, so narrowing it beyond that is quite difficult - at least for me.
In the past, I'd likened the instance of "shipping" known as "Olicity" to religion and politics as being a topic to be avoided at the dinner table. Though it was merely a jest, I've seen firsthand how there exist those extremists which approach this fictional relationship with such zealotry that they'll flame anyone who believes otherwise into oblivion. Hell, even I've been subjected to a few online lashings as a result - and I'm just the guy writing news articles!
When I originally reviewed Black Lightning's first two episodes ahead of January's series premiere, I had positive things to say about one of DC's latest TV adaptations. But even then, I obviously had no idea of the greatness which would blossom out of those introductory chapters.
I don’t know what’s been up with Zack Snyder as of late, but the guy sure has been enjoying sharing all kinds of interesting trivia pertaining to Batman V Superman: Dawn of Justice in recent memory. Sometimes, he may provide answers regarding things that have puzzled moviegoers for the past couple years, or he may declassify some cool pictures. Either way, he’s doing a fine job of keeping DC fans engaged.
Even with the Marvel Cinematic Universe now being made up by a number of highly successful movies, the comic book readers among you are well aware of how the films have merely scratched the surface when it comes to what the source material offers. In other words, there remain thousands of characters just waiting to be adapted to celluloid.
Seeing as how superheroes are dominating the box office and TV airwaves these days, it's understandable that curious newbies sample the source material. Unfortunately, not everybody has a comic shop in their immediate locale, so it's nice to see whenever chain stores get in on the action and help bring books to the masses.
After IT proved to be a force at the box office last year, Hollywood seemingly came down with another case of what we'll call "Stephen King Fever" (no relation to Disco Fever or Hulkamania), as various other adaptations of the legendary author's works were put into production.
Though Gotham's fifth and final season is still a bit down the line - January of 2019, according to actress Camren Bicondova - there's actually been a steady stream of news regarding the Batman prequel series in recent memory. Actually, that's to be expected knowing that cameras begin rolling in July as they usually would, so it stands to reason there won't be a massive crater separating now from winter when it comes to fresh information.
Once 2017’s glimpse into the humble lives of Derry’s residents proved to be a box office juggernaut, it only made sense that studios scramble to get the next adaptation of a story penned by Stephen King up on the big screen, chief among which will be IT: Chapter Two. After all, it's more than understandable that Pennywise continue leading the way as the horror keeps flowing.
Being someone who admittedly didn't care for the first film that much, I can say that Ant-Man and the Wasp looks to be the very definition of a movie warranting giving a franchise a second chance. In short, I find myself being continually impressed by every new trailer and clip hitting the web.
