How Casting Karen Fukuhara As Major Would've Saved 'Ghost In The Shell'
Ghost in the Shell may not have been a complete critical failure as many expected, with a current Rotten Tomatoes rating of 46 percent. While that isn't "Certified Fresh," it is still an average score and has been boosted by its stunning visuals and action. It has failed where it really counts though; its box office sales are well off the mark, with it expecting to lose at least $60 million dollars.

From Targaryens To Time Lords: 13 Actors Who Have Appeared In 'Game Of Thrones' And 'Doctor Who'
Though the two universes of Game of Thrones and Doctor Who are unlikely to ever meet outside the realms of fan-fiction, they do have quite a lot in common.

Mark Hamill Speaks Out About The Main Problem With Modern Superhero Movies, And Offers His Solution
Admit it: when you hear the name Mark Hamill, your thoughts immediately turn to Luke Skywalker whining about power converters or lowering the hood of a cape in the most dramatic way possible.

Among his roles in innumerable comic book adaptations, the #StarWars star has played the Trickster across two different TV adaptations of The Flash, and the Hobgoblin in the beloved '90s Spider-Man animated series. And who could ever forget his memorable turn voicing one of the most beloved iterations of the #Joker?

You Say The Sweetest Things: Chris Evans Chats About His Bromance With Robert Downey Jr.
They may have worked side-by-side in Marvel’s Avengers, but the Sokovia Accords left the friendship of Captain America and Iron Man in tatters. The entire Marvel Cinematic Universe may be divided due to their epic spat, but in reality, the men who play Tony Stark and Steve Rogers have quite a different relationship off-camera. Indeed, Chris Evans recently commented on his love for RDJ, and the kindness of his words rivals those which he used to describe his ex Jenny Slate. Trust us: Evans's comments will surely soften the heart of the most stoic Marvel movie fans.

Jack's All Folks: What Does The End Of Wolverine Mean For Hugh Jackman?
Is there life after Logan? Hugh Jackman is officially hanging up his adamantium skeleton after 16 years of playing the grizzly menace Wolverine. We have followed him across the Canadian Rockies, to Alkali Lake, the Statue of Liberty, and even a trip back to 1973, so sorry if we are a little sentimental in laying Jackmanverse to rest. I mean c'mon, he was so good in his role that they even kept him for the sequels, prequels, reboots and remakes — it is hard to picture anyone else in the role of Logan, and I feel sorry for the poor son of a bitch who has to try *sticks middle claw up*.

Saturday Night Live has a history of doing some great and not-so great impressions of our favorite celebs, but making the roster means you have made it in Hollywood. While most take it in good fun (Biebs tweeted "good one"), not everyone is a fan of the weekend comedy showcase. Alec Baldwin's recent impression of President Trump has caused problems on Twitter and the POTUS is seemingly unamused.

Burning Your Bridges: Jeff Bridges Lets Rip On 'Iron Man' Movie!
2008's Iron Man represented a simpler time for superhero films — Mickey Rourke wasn't flicking electrical cord, Sir Ben Kingsley wasn't punking us, and Pepper Potts still existed. Where the first Iron Man is normally universally praised as pretty good, it looks like at least one person isn't a fan — and that person was one of the stars.
