RUMOR: Idris Elba To Star In This Steven King Epic!
Okay, okay here's the deal: Stephen King's The Dark Tower novel series is far and away my favorite collection of books, by about a million miles. Forgive me Dana, but even The Lord of the Rings doesn't compare in my mind, and that's why it's so exciting to find out that my favorite fictional characters are finally that much closer to having their story shared on film. The Dark Tower series is a set of 8 books published over the span of 30 years and totaling over 4,250 pages. These books can also be linked to several of King's other works through characters and settings. Ultimately, The Dark Tower Octology (if that's a word) truly is King's magnum opus; his crowning literary jewel.

Aren't We All Just a Little Minion at Heart?
In 1937, Walt Disney pioneered a path for animation to join the ever-growing collection of feature films to showcase in cinemas across the world. Since then there have been critical and commercial successes as well as those that have fallen flat and failed to meet expectations. Animation studios have come and gone, but if we limit our frame of reference to just the last 15 years we've seen some great films come from the titan studios like:

The LGBT Community Will Get Representation on 'Once Upon a Time' in Season 5
It is no secret that the LGBT community has been fans of the show Once Upon a Time since it's conception. However, many have been vocal about the fact that while "true love" is a subject used often on the show, the love of someone of the same gender is not represented among all the princes and princesses of the fairy tale show. Who doesn't want to see a happy ending that they can relate to?

5 TV Shows With Awesome Series Finales
We hate to see our favorite shows come to an end, and while we understand that actors want to move on or the programs have run out of steam, it's still difficult for us. Fortunately, some writers make it a bit easier for us when they offer closure or a hint of the fantasy world goes on. That's what happened with these fantastic series. They all gave us a chance to say goodbye in the best way possible.

'Twilight' Time is Past, Now Bring On The Volturi TV Series
Vampires are a big draw on television. The Vampire Diaries is entering its 8th and final season while The Originals is heading into its fourth. Even the big screen embraces the undead. The newest big vampire movie may just be the reboot of Anne Rice's popular Interview with a Vampire. As of May 2016, the film was moving forward with some discussions already taking place as to who would play the title character of Lestat. And let's not forget Lost Boys that is heading down the reboot alley as well. With The Vampire Diaries ending, viewers need another show to get their vampire fix. The creepy but popular Volturi from the Twilight franchise could be an option.
