'Arrow' Season 7 Speculation: How Long Will the Series Keep Oliver Queen in Prison?
When Arrow wrapped its sixth season in May, Oliver Queen was headed to prison at The Slab, which is a metahuman prison. It supposedly got its name from being so impenetrable that the only way prisoners could leave was "on a slab." Of course, there have been myriad speculations that Oliver would figure out a way to escape, and that isn't all of the rumors that have been swirling since the screen faded to black.

Review: 'Jurassic World: Fallen Kingdom'
As much as Jurassic Park is important to me from my childhood, my expectations for this latest installment was pretty low. Now while I thought Jurassic World was pretty decent, the stuff I was hearing about its sequels in terms of the choice of story just sounded like it could very well be a disaster.

Fearless 4
The next few days the weird things kept happening to my sisters. Amy kept disappearing and then she would be walking by me and sending me flying across the room even though she was not even touching me. It was as if a huge force was throwing me away. Then, Alexis kept appearing out of nowhere and she would create a wind every time she would walk from one place to another. Jon's visits became more frequent and I would watch my sisters being trained by Jon in the backyard. Alexis' training was fast. Jon was trying to teach her how to fight, but she kept dodging him instead of taking the hits like she was supposed to, and instead of blocking she was dodging him, she was untouchable. But, Jon had said that she had to learn how to control her speed before school started so she would be able to fit in and not stand out like a sore thumb. Amy's training, on the other hand, was going a lot better, she was always fast to learn new things. She had started training with Jon two weeks ago and she was already learning how to move quickly and managing to get a few surprise punches in. There was part of me that wished that I was special and that I had some kind of superpower. It would be cool to learn how to fight and defend myself.

Ingmar Bergman
Swedish director Ingmar Bergman's 100th birthday is coming up on July 14 and what better way to celebrate him than to reflect upon his work. Bergman started out as theater director before transitioning over into film directing, though he had always had a knack for the magic of the silver screen. He talks about how when he was young, he had received a magic lantern projector for Christmas and became enamored with the short animated film that came with it, sticking with him throughout his life.

'A Walk on The Beach'
Robert Massimi. A Walk on The Beach at the Theater for The New City is an introspective of a heavy debate about a sculpture in Hyannis Massachusetts. The debate is whether or not John Kennedy Jr should be shown next to his father walking on the beach as an adult or a 3-year-old. At first, sculptor David Lewis (Jack Coggins) wanted young "John John." Ted and Caroline Kennedy would approve it if it was an older John Jr. David made a mock up of the sculpture to the horror of Charlie (John Carhart), an editor for the local newspaper. Between Charlie and the newspaper's board, they try to do everything to stop it from being presented to the local residents. The tempers start to get short between David, Charlie, and David's wife, Nancy (Elizabeth Bove). Nancy is out to protect her husband and is more worried that he will fall back into alcohol, (he's been sober for 22 years.) David has an ace in the hole; however, Louis (David Shakopi) is politically connected and intends to talk directly to Ted Kennedy and raise money for the statue as well. The only problem is as the pressure starts to boil, the Kennedy's do not want to get involved in a controversy. David feels that the deck is stacked against him. The only thing that keeps him going is the visits on the beach by JFK himself (James Earley.) JFK inspires David to do what is in his heart. He tells him that we never know what is right or wrong until we make the final decision.

Book Adaption to Film - The Good and The Bad
Don’t get me wrong, I know that unless a movie is going to be massively long, then parts of the book are going to be missed out, but missing out critical pieces of information is something that just ruins the movie for anyone who has read the book.

The Patronus Charm - Why No Quiz Is Accurate
"How does it work?" said Harry nervously. "Well, when it works correctly, it conjures up a Patronus," said Lupin, "which is a kind of Anti-Dementor – a guardian which acts as a shield between you and the Dementor." ~extract from Harry Potter and the Prisoner of Azkaban by J.K. Rowling
