Black's Your Lot: Director Reveals 'Men In Black 4' Is Unlikely To Happen
Well, it looks like it might really be time to put on the last suit you will ever wear, because it looks like Men in Black 4 might be as likely to appear as the aliens that reside within it. With its bopping soundtrack and blatant rip-off of Patricia Rushen's "Forget Me Nots," the first #MenInBlack film became the third-highest grossing movie of 1997 and even won an Academy Award for Best Makeup. The next two installments may have brought in over $1.6 billion for #Columbia, but were we watching a franchise that relied on its main stars rather than something people actually enjoy watching *cough* Pirates of the Caribbean *cough*.

This Season's Trump Card: Kathy Bates Responds To Playing Donald Trump On 'American Horror Story'
Roll out the stars and stripes because American Horror Story's politically charged season is only months away. While the veil of mystery still has Lady Justice blindfolded, more and more details on what #FX has in store are leaking out like a Clinton sex scandal. It seems like a match made in heaven, combining Donald Trump and the next season of #AmericanHorrorStory, but will it really happen?

No Monkeying Around: Jordan Vogt-Roberts Reveals Alternate 'Skull Island' Opening And Post-Credit You'll Go Ape For
Jordan Vogt-Roberts's chest-beating gorilla vs. guerilla is currently tearing through the jungle and the competition at the cinemas, but does #KongSkullIsland deserve the title of king of the swingers? As #BrieLarson, #TomHiddleston, and Samuel L. Jackson tool up against King Kong, we are left with a brave new imagining of a story we have been told a thousand times before, since the monkey first took Manhattan back in 1993.

Enter The T-Will-Light Zone: Will Smith Is Turning Into Uncle Phil From 'The Fresh Prince Of Bel Air'
"I'd like to take a minute, just sit right there, tell you how I look like Uncle Phil upside down from Bel Air." Do you remember that stage after The Departed where Leonardo DiCaprio began to morph into Jack Nicholson? Well, Hollywood's Twilight Zone is back at it again, proving that pets don't just look like their owners, actors can look like their buddies too.

Camp Rock Out With Your C*ck Out: Why An R-Rated 'Camp Rock 3' Is An Awful Idea
From child star to female icon, 24-year-old Demi Lovato has certainly come a long way from her Disney Channel days. Singing her way into our hearts as Mitchie Torres in 2008's Camp Rock, the songstress has barely looked back since. Lovato may have returned for the sequel in 2010, but then it seemed that The Final Jam really was the end of summer lovin'. With audiences unwillingly stuck in the time of the reboot/remake, Joe Jonas couldn't keep his urges under wraps, already pitching the idea of pitching a tent for a raunchy sequel to the #DisneyChannel film.

The Right Guy For The Job: Guy Pearce Returns For 'Alien: Covenant'
As Ridley Scott tools up another crew for doom in the upcoming Alien: Covenant, the sequel/prequel will return to its horror roots by making sure that in space, no one can hear you scream. Exploring the Xenomorph lore, #AlienCovenant is amping up the mystery and making Michael Fassbender the center of proceedings. Fassbender will be in the dual role of androids David (returning from #Prometheus) and newcomer Walter. We already saw David's nefarious schemes last time around, while Walter seems just as sinister as his doppelgänger in the footage we have seen.

It's Dead Certain: Is 'Bury Me Here' The Best Episode Of 'The Walking Dead' Season 7?
Well, unlike its shuffling zombies, #TheWalkingDead certainly isn't crawling to its Season 7 finale. After last week's fun-filled trip to the fair, #AMC's undead drama took a decidedly sinister turn as we ramp up toEpisode 16 and the end of another mixed-bag run. With a much-needed trip to The Kingdom, the show arguably rules at its best when outside the fortified walls of the Alexandria Safe Zone.

Once More, With Feeling: How 'Buffy The Vampire Slayer' Still Has Fangs 20 Years Later
"Welcome to Sunnydale — Enjoy your Stay." It's official, if you don't feel old yet, you soon will. Buffy the Vampire Slayer turns 20, but where other shows and their dodgy CGI have turned to dust in the sunlight, our feisty heroine and her ragtag gang of vampire hunters hasn't aged a day. For seven seasons and 144 episodes, #SarahMichelleGellar ruled as the Slayer of the quaint fictional town in this feminine first horror comedy.

Who's Going In The Chipper This Time? Meet The 'Fargo' Season 3 Cast
Stick on your snow boots and prepare for more crime syndicates, more dodgy accents than you can throw a stack of waffles at, and more fur hats than a PETA rally, we are heading out into the icy wilderness of Minnesota for Fargo Season 3.

Back To Black: Jordan Peele Reveals Much Darker Ending For 'Get Out'
With Universal's Get Out currently tearing up review sites and the box office as one of the best horror films ever, it is certainly a thriller that gets under your skin and stays there. Cleverly balancing humor, horror, and the dark issue of racism, Get Out is almost too clever for its own good. The film is held up by its truly bizarre final act, but with a great pay-off that will have you thinking about #GetOut for a long time to come.
