Jeremy Renner Reveals Avengers: Endgame Once Had a Thanos Battle on Vormir

The sequence in Avengers: Endgame on Vormir is one of the most intimate, emotional moments in the film. But it wasn’t always planned that way.

A Small Update on the New RoboCop Movie, Which Is Apparently Still Happening

Last year, we got news that Neil Blomkamp, possibly as penance from the universe for not getting to make that Alien movie he was really hype for, was working on RoboCop Returns, a direct followup to the original 1987 film. Now, we’ve got an update that confirms that the movie, while moving slowly, is definitely…

Tell Us Who You Would Cast in a New Version of The Matrix

So there’s this bonkers rumor going around. You might’ve heard it. It says that the Wachowski Sisters are jacking back into The Matrix, directing a reboot of the film that will star Michael B.

Thanks to This Cover, the Cantina Theme From Star Wars Is Going to Be Stuck in My Head All Day

Back in the day, before all the Nazis and creepy algorithmically generated children’s shows, YouTube was great for two things: old Saturday Night Live clips, and song covers. It’s honestly still pretty great for the latter. Which is why, at ten thirty on a Sunday morning, I find myself listening to a fantastic a capella…

This Video Proves Once and for All That Luke Skywalker Is Star Wars’ Straight Man

What makes a good straight man? Keep calm and don’t know what’s going on. As this new video from Star Wars Kids shows, Luke Skywalker is, at least in the first couple of movies he appears in, fantastic in at least one of those categories. Mark Hamill has often described Luke as the “straight man”…

Comics Writer Sina Grace Talks the Lack of Support He Received From Marvel While Writing Iceman

In 2017, writer and artist Sina Grace had a historically significant run on Iceman, a book we covered as it came out, in which the powerful mutant struggled as much with superheroic shenanigans as he did with the lived experience of life as a gay man, work for which he was nominated for a GLAAD…

This Video Dives Into the Bizarre, Complex History of the Muppet Babies

I learned a lot about the Muppet Babies recently. The Henson-created cartoon, which I watched in syndication as a kid in the ‘90s, has a fascinating history. Like, for instance, did you know that it was produced by Marvel? Yeah, that Marvel, with the same TV division that created GI Joe. Henson was, apparently, reluctant…

Holy Crap, This Star Wars Short Made Me Excited About the Jedi for Once

It’s a weird thing to admit as a Star Wars fan, but I can honestly take or leave the Jedi and Sith. They dominate the storytelling landscape of Star Wars far too much, telling the same old tales. Give me a pilot, or a smuggler, or literally anyone but yet another force sensitive with a…

Remember 1998, When the World (Almost) Ended Twice?

Disaster movie fans were living their best lives in 1998, specifically the two-month span of 1998 that delivered two earnest epics about what might happen if a rogue celestial object suddenly threatened our planet: Deep Impact and Armageddon. Despite the déjà vu, both films were massive box-office hits. But how do they hold up 21…
