10 Fascinating MCU Characters Who NEED More Screen Time
One of the reasons the Marvel Cinematic Universe has been so successful is the large number of interesting, compelling characters found throughout the films. In this list, we will look at 10 MCU heroes and villains who we would love to see more of, characters whose fascinating personalities are still evolving. For the sake of space, we will not include major MCU characters who will obviously receive more attention and films of their own in the future, such as Doctor Strange and Spider-Man.

What's Next for the MCU After 'Infinity War?'
MAJOR SPOILERS FOR AVENGERS: INFINITY WAR, POSSIBLE SPOILERS FOR AVENGERS 4, AND SPOILERS FOR THE MCU IN GENERAL! Avengers: Infinity War is the culmination of ten years of Marvel's cinematic universe which started all the way back in 2008 with Iron Man. The character of Thanos was first teased back in 2012 with the release of the original Avengers movie so Marvel and the directors of Infinity War, Joe and Anthony Russo, knew they had some big shoes to fill in terms of making a villain who had been teased for six years feel complex and like a genuine threat, something the MCU has struggled with in the past. If you've seen the movie, then you'll know that Thanos is undoubtedly one of, if not the best villain Marvel has brought to the big screen, with him collecting all six infinity stones and wiping out half of the universe by the end of the film. So, in this article, I will try to predict what we can expect from the MCU going forward as well as some things I would personally like to see happen in future movies, most notably Avengers 4.

King of the Green: 10 Actors Who Could Star in 'Swamp Thing'
DC Comics is launching an online streaming service in order to air their own exclusive content, and they have recently announced that a live-action Swamp Thing show will be a part of the line-up. Swamp Thing is one of the most popular characters in DC Comics lore, yet the role hasn't been executed correctly. I feel that I know a few actors who could not only be a good Swamp Thing, but a good Alec Holland as well, and I hope you agree with my list.

'Deadpool 2' and the Significance of "Take On Me" by a-ha
**THIS ARTICLE CONTAINS SPOILERS FOR DEADPOOL 2** Last night I finally went to see Deadpool 2 and it was great, although many say it was not as good as the first one. In part I do have to agree, although I must admit it was nice to see some LGBT representation (and by the way, I’m not just talking about the hint dropping that goes on between Deadpool and Colossus; I’m talking about the very obvious line of “she’s my girlfriend” said by Negasonic about Yukio).

The Main Man's Movie: 10 Actors Who Could Play Lobo in the DCEU. Top Story - May 2018.
News has broke that the fan favorite intergalactic mercenary Lobo is set to have his own solo movie directed by Michael Bay, and loyal followers of the DC Universe couldn't be more ecstatic. Lobo isn't just one of the most powerful characters in DC Comics lore, he's one of the funniest and most insane, and that could make for a movie that rivals the likes of Deadpool. No matter how good or bad the movie will be, the fact remains that you need the right person to bring Lobo to life, and I think I have a few choices that might fit the bill.

Movie Review: 'Deadpool 2'
Deadpool 2 takes up the story after Deadpool/Wade Wilson (Ryan Reynolds) suffers a tragedy. How is it possible for Deadpool, the snarkiest of the snarky superheroes, to genuinely feel a tragedy? You’ll have to see it for yourself. How this incident changes Deadpool is really not all that much. He becomes slightly morose for a time and then gets back to killing people.

‘Deadpool 2’ and Why It Feels so Familiar
Deadpool 2 is out and it is already receiving mixed reactions. The first film was a surprise runaway success, but that’s because the film was highly anticipated and, for the most part, director Tim Miller and his team of writers, Rhett Reese and Paul Wernick, understood the pulse of the character and his fans.
