Finally A Dark Tower Movie is Being Made!
As far back as I can remember, I've been an avid reader. From the days of looking for Where the Wild Things Are to saying Goodnight Moon. I spent hours reading about what would happen If You Give a Mouse a Cookie, and I snuggled up with The Giving Tree while eating my Green Eggs and Ham. Once I grew, my taste in books grew as well. I started looking for books with more substance, and when I found what I was looking for I couldn't put the books down. I fell in love with The Giver, spent countless hours getting Goosebumps, solved mysteries with The Hardy Boys, and changed it up with the Animorphs.

'Supernatural' Season 13 Will Have a New Leader of Hell, but Who Could It Be?
Hell will rise again in Season 13 of Supernatural as a new leader will rise to take command. At least, that's what series showrunner Andrew Dabb is teasing for the upcoming season set to premiere this October. For fans of the series, it's almost hard to remember a time when the Winchesters weren't being tasked with averting some sort of biblical apocalyptic situation, but back in the first few seasons of Supernatural it was all about defeating the monster of the week.

3 Characters Who Should Have an Arkham-Style Game Franchise
I am a HUGE proponent of the Arkham Verse of games. I pre-ordered all 4, and Arkham Knight was the only one that I was unable to make the midnight release for at my local Gamestop. Regardless, I've spent a great deal of time investing in the games.

Is This Classic Shakespearean Work Set To Be Recreated As A Cyborg Dystopian World?
Okay, you're probably only reading this because it sounds either really intriguing or completely ludicrous to think about: but either way you were curious. Well so was I (both intrigued and dumbfounded) when I came across the original concept created by none other than the magnificent Stan Lee. The story of Romeo and Juliet in a dystopian universe filled with artificial humans and cyborgs just seems awesome!

10 Spy Comedies That Are Sure to Make You Want to Be a Secret Agent
This past weekend I was finally able to sit down and watch 'The Man From U.N.C.L.E.', and I have to say I couldn't have been happier with my movie selection. As I was watching, I started thinking about all the other spy films that I've seen over the years, specifically all the comedic films in the spy/secret agent genre, and I thought I'd put together a little list of some of the best, because maybe you're looking for a good spy comedy to fill your evening.

Who's Your Daddy? - 11 Characters Who Didn't Have an Answer
When we go to movies, or rent/buy them - it's usually because we think there is an engaging story that we'd be interested in watching. That's the essence of movies and TV basically - creating a story that draws people in. Sometimes we don't know all of the twists and turns that a movie or show will take us, but the build up to the reveal or answers makes it all the more memorable.

Nightwing? Red Hood? Who's Next For DC TV?
DC has done incredibly well in recent years with their characters jumping into television series. We've seen Arrow fire the first shot and show off what’s possible for a DC hero to attain on television, we’ve witnessed the speed in which The Flash has gained a freaky fan following and we’ve also seen the power of Supergirl as she made her debut on television. Everyone is talking about what Marvel has done with comic book characters on Netflix, and rightfully so. Marvel has created a connected universe of characters, and it looks to be incredibly promising over the next few years, yet by no means is DC playing second fiddle to Marvel.

RUMOR: Idris Elba To Star In This Steven King Epic!
Okay, okay here's the deal: Stephen King's The Dark Tower novel series is far and away my favorite collection of books, by about a million miles. Forgive me Dana, but even The Lord of the Rings doesn't compare in my mind, and that's why it's so exciting to find out that my favorite fictional characters are finally that much closer to having their story shared on film. The Dark Tower series is a set of 8 books published over the span of 30 years and totaling over 4,250 pages. These books can also be linked to several of King's other works through characters and settings. Ultimately, The Dark Tower Octology (if that's a word) truly is King's magnum opus; his crowning literary jewel.
