Oh I 'Wonder' Why? ‘Wonder Woman’ Delayed in Tunisia Ahead of a Possible Ban
We may be loving the female-first powerhouse that is #WonderWoman in the UK and USA, but it appears that our love of Diana Prince doesn't extend worldwide. It may be the best film the #DCEU has to offer, but certain countries aren't fans of #GalGadot and her knee-high boots. Following on from the film's banning in Lebanon, Tunisia is the latest country to throw a lasso round #PattyJenkins's masterpiece and bury the film in the trenches of controversy.

Fan Casting Disney's Live Action 'The Little Mermaid'
While Universal is making plans to move forward with their live-action version of Ariel and her friends, Disney has announced that it will be adding The Little Mermaid to its roster of classics that will be made into live action in the future. While I applaud Universal for wanting to tackle the original version written by Hans Christian Anderson, I am excited about the prospect of Disney redoing this tale as well, given their success at retelling their tales in movies such as Maleficent and The Jungle Book (and the upcoming Beauty and the Beast, the trailer for which just dropped). Here are some of the actors who I think would be amazing in a casting of the live-action tale of the mermaid with the voice of an angel.

Sowing the Seeds of Change: Marvel Refuses to Rush a More Diverse MCU
Disney may have the "It's a Small World" ride, but there is no denying that its current roster of #superheroes on film is hardly what you would call diverse. We may tackle green-skinned assassins, talking raccoons, and even a dancing tree, but even the assumption that someone somewhere in the #MCU prefers the company of the same sex brings the internet into meltdown mode.

Returning To The Flash... But With A Twist
Back in October it was rumored that Robbie Amell would be returning to The Flash. At the end of season one and into season two we watched as Ronnie Raymond flew into the singularity in hopes of saving Central City from its eminent destruction. After stopping the singularity by ultimately sacrificing himself, we watched as Dr. Stein seemed to have been separated permanently from his flame-y counterpart.

We have all heard the rumors that Breaking Bad's Walter White sells his azure meth to those hillbilly Dixon brothers on #TheWalkingDead, but should the shared universes stop there?
