Golden Girls: Hollywood's 10 Highest Grossing Actresses!
The era of the Spice Girls and girl power may be a distant '90s memory, but the women of Hollywood are still flying the flag high in the box office. Scarlett Johansson has just been announced as the world's highest-grossing actress, earning herself a coveted top spot. Men still dominate the highest grossing in Hollywood #1-9 and the top grossing women may only start at #10, but they are hot on the tails of the opposite sex. Which other screen starlets are taking on the boys?

Forget Fall Out Boy: The Japanese Ghostbusters Theme Is The Only One You Need!
Sure, the trailer may be the most disliked video on YouTube ever, but there is no denying that the all female Ghostbusters certainly has people talking. The writing is on the wall on whether the reboot film is moving too far away from the Bill Murray-packed campy-comedy from 1984, and we won't know until July 15. As much as the original film (and sequel) were made by the stellar cast, there is no denying that Ghostbusters would have be nothing without its theme song and synonymous "I ain't afraid of no ghost."

'Game Of Thrones' Has A Silent Killer — The Curse Of King Robert Baratheon
Time for a little Game of Thrones time travel — and no, not the Bran Stark kind. For this little fan theory, we are going waaaay back to Season 1 and the very first episode "Winter is Coming." In the aftermath of the current season's shocking "Battle of the Bastards," new evidence suggests that the Curse of King Robert Baratheon was placed on the Stark family back in 2011. Thank actor Mark Addy and his touch of death.

'Game of Thrones' Season 6 Finale: All Men Must Die, But Who Will?
Everyone knows that In Game of Thrones, you win or you die, and it looks like next week's finale, "The Winds of Winter", could live up to that mantra quite well. Whilst we are still reeling from Episode 9 - as the show offed poor little Rickon Stark and kind-hearted Wun-Wun the giant - there is no time to get sentimental. Episode 9 is stereotypically your big hitter of the season, but the promo for Episode 10 doesn't show any sign of the action slowing down. By the looks of it, there will be a courtroom drama over at King's Landing as Cersei AND Loras face their trials, as well as your usual ice and fire strife. With this in mind, let's run down who is most likely to 'hold the door' in the season finale and joining the Game of Thrones ever growing In Memoriam section.
