The 'Absolutely Fabulous' Trailer Has Absolutely Everything We Wanted!
Sweetie, darling, they're back! After seemingly leaving behind the lives of Edina Monsoon and Patsy Stone in 2005, fans of BBC's Absolutely Fabulous had always hoped for more. With a series of sporadic adverts, Comic Relief sketches and even three special episodes to commemorate the 20th anniversary, it was pretty clear we hadn't seen the last of the two Bollinger swigging socialites. The odd one-off was never going to be enough to satisfy the appetites of their cult fans, and rumours of a film version have been harder to kick than the pair's nicotine addiction. Off the back of the likes of Alan Partridge, the Ab Fab girls are the latest to make it to the silver screen with some pretty famous faces in tow.

Once Upon A Time, In A Galaxy Far, Far Away: When Is 'Star Wars' Coming To Storybrooke?
ABC'S hit show Once Upon a Time is a powerhouse of fairytale magic that shows no sign of slowing down. Recently renewed for a sixth season and with the back-catalogue of Disney characters dwindling, where does the tale of Storybrooke go next? With the hype surrounding Disney's Star Wars, it only makes sense that Emma Swan and her band of intrepid fairytale foes take a trip to the Dark Side and saddle up for a trip to the stars. A one way ticket to a ratings boost, or an early grave for the show? Remember:

It's Official, Batfans: Animated 'The Killing Joke' To Get An R-Rating!
Well, it was only a matter of time really before "R fever" hit us hard. First it was Fox with Deadpool and now it is happening in the DC Animated Universe. While Suicide Squad will (probably) scrape by with a PG-13, in the animated universe things are looking a little darker for the Dark Knight. That's right Batfans, the hotly anticipated Batman: The Killing Joke will be the DCAU's first R-rated film.

2 + 2 = Hodor: Mathematicians Have Worked Out The Most Important 'Game Of Thrones' Character
It appears that R + L = J is not the most important mathematical equation you need to wrap your head around when it comes to George R.R. Martin's A Song of Ice and Fire. Mathematicians from Minnesota have now figured out just who the most important man (or woman) in Westeros is. Nope, it isn't the golden haired mother of dragons Daenerys Targaryen, nor is it mopey Lord Commander Jon Snow, and it certainly isn't resting bitch face Cersei Lannister...so just who should we all be backing?
