Once upon a time, there was an unwritten rule that studios would not make biopics about people who were still alive. Since a few years back, however, starting with movies like The Theory of Everything (2014) and Southside With You (2016), which cover the lives of Stephen Hawking and the Obamas, respectively, respect for the living was officially thrown out the window in exchange for good old fashioned monetary gain.
It's an honest to God marvel that the most profitable film in human history had to wait over a decade to receive a sequel, but then again, that's what you can expect from a director who's more interested in pushing the boundaries of his craft than making money, which he's got boat loads of anyway. Of course, it's just our luck that, as soon as production on Avatar 2 finally got underway, it was just as quickly shut down by a once-in-a-lifetime global health crisis.
Although dozens of states have gradually reopened non-essential businesses over the past few weeks, Regal Cinemas appears to be in no hurry to join the movement.

ScreenRant recently published a post in which its reporter tried to pass for news the fact that Aang and Zuko, two key characters from Michael Dante DiMartino and Bryan Konietzko's beloved animated series Avatar: The Last Airbender are family members.
Marvel's Spider-Man is currently available on PlayStation Now, but rumor has it that the game will stick around for next month's PS Plus offering, too.
When Square Enix released the first trailer of its upcoming Avengers action-adventure game, the response was lukewarm at best. Although the prospect of a project which lets you play as Marvel's biggest heroes sounds exciting in theory, in practice it's kind of hard to pull off. Aside from the repetitive-looking gameplay, the sheer design of the characters - markedly different from the MCU versions which we've come to known and love - felt like poor imitations of the real deal.
