Cinema Personality Traits: Life as an INFJ
I read an article by another creator friend, Ian, and in the article he wrote about the 16 Personality Theory and how it applies to certain characters in film and game. The theory itself as well as a quick test (10 minutes or so) that you can apply to your own personality can be found here. The gist of the theory is that there are 4 traits that can be joined together to create your specific personality:

The 4 Women Who Can Defeat Wonder Woman!
For as long as I can remember, there has always been the debate over who would win in a fight between Superman and Wonder Woman. Both sides hold valid arguments, and it's a difficult fight to determine a winner, but nevertheless I thought I would take an alternate spin on the debate and look at who could possibly defeat Wonder Woman specifically, seeing as she is a fighter who doesn't think the word surrender a viable option in any fight.

Ubisoft Left A Hidden E3 Trailer For Their Next New IP Inside 'Watch Dogs 2'
With the flurry of rumors surrounding both Far Cry 5 and Assassin's Creed Origins, it's easy to imagine that Ubisoft is trying their very best to keep as much under wraps about these two widely anticipated franchise additions. But what if - what if, Ubisoft had something even more devilishly clever reason for being uncharacteristically quiet about these rumors.

Batman: The Ever Re-Beginning
Batman. A character with a fairly well defined origin. Parents murdered at a young age, raised by his families butler, Alfred. He soon learned of the dark and seedy underbelly of his home city, Gotham. As he grew he felt convicted that he needed to rid his beloved city of evil by donning the symbol of his own fear, the bat. Thus becoming a figure that stalked the skyline and the shadows of Gotham striking fear into all those with villainous intent. First introduced into comic culture in 1939 - from that point on Batman would become legend and also fodder for all other 'super' heroes seeing as he has no supernatural powers. Regardless of your opinion on his heroic status, Batman is a character that has remained viable to many generations. As the generations changed so did his character, to match the times. Characters are always being created and revised and then recreated throughout cinema: especially when it comes to comic characters. Batman has gone through a myriad of changes over the past 70 years: in comics as well as in film and television.

A Gentleman's Challenge: Recasting the Extraordinary League
It has been reported that the League of Extraordinary Gentlemen is in line for a reboot from 20th Century Fox. The pseudo-successful film was originally released with a cast of: Sean Connery, Peta Wilson, Tony Curran, Stuart Townsend and Shane West to name a few, but seeing as it was only mildly successful, I imagine a total reboot as has been seen in several other heroic films that went through numerous recreations before they ultimately find pay dirt (IE: Superman, Batman, Fantastic Four, Incredible Hulk)

Could This Small Detail Have Sealed Tormund's Fate in The 'Game Of Thrones' Season 7 Finale?
The Game of Thrones Season 7 finale, "The Dragon and the Wolf," was a nail-biter of an episode. With some big surprises taking place of the show's nearly feature-length run, the biggest surprise of them all was saved for the final scenes, when the White Walkers finally bring down the Wall. As the Night King's dragon flew to the Wall, countless fans started fearing for the fan-favorite Tormund as he was atop said wall when Viserion began spitting out his icy fire.

Jupiter Ascending: transcending the Sci-Fi genre in a beautiful way.
Thanks to the wonderful staff at Moviepilot, I was able to take a look into a pre-release Blu-ray of Jupiter Ascending, which comes out June 2nd on blu-ray, DVD, and digital HD. In all honesty I wasn’t sure what I’d be in for. It’s one of the biggest struggle of watching a film after so many reviews and spoilers have already been released. I always try my best to avoid the critics before I have a chance to watch any film, but alas I was spoiled before seeing Jupiter because of all the hype. Nevertheless, I did my best to enter into this film experience with as much of an open mind as I could, because honestly the reviews that I had seen weren’t, how should I say “overwhelmingly positive”, most were downright nasty, yet through it all I have to say that I liked it.

'Assassin's Creed: Origins' Leaked By Major Retailer, Egypt Confirmed Target
We've been speculating about where #Ubisoft would take the Assassin's Creed franchise for the last two years, ever since we were slightly miffed by the European Industrial Age addition of Assassin's Creed: Syndicate. Now that's not saying that it's a bad game, we were just looking or something else.

Does Jon’s Letter to Sansa Hint at a Stark Uprising in 'Game Of Thrones' Season 8?
With Littlefinger's long-awaited comeuppance at the hands of the Stark sisters, his hold over Sansa was finally severed and the status quo is back as the rightful heirs to the North can rule Winterfell without Lord Baelish's interference. However, it seems Sansa still has a long road ahead of her as the Lady of Winterfell, considering what we've learned about Jon Snow's actions over the last few episodes of Season 7.
