The Link Between Moaning Myrtle And Ursula Blake!
I have come to a startling conclusion as of late. Ursula Blake IS Moaning Myrtle! No, I am dead serious. These two characters are one in the same! How did I come to this conclusion (as well as something shocking at the end?), well allow me to elaborate! I must admit there will be spoilers ahead in this article! So tread carefully!

What we know about the Red Sonja movie: Cast, Crew, Locations & Costumes
Hannah John-Kamen has been cast as Red Sonja. Depending on your fandom, you might know her from Game of Thrones, Ant-Man and the Wasp, or Killjoys. She’s also been the lead in the series The Stranger and Brave New World. Reactions have ranged from calling her casting perfect to howls of protests from racist nerds. See, John-Kamen has a black father, and well, how dare she. It’s like there’s a paint swatch of acceptable colors to play characters. She can dye her hair red, relax people. They are missing the far more important question: How tall is she?

Movie Review: '15 Things You Didn't Know About Bigfoot (Number 1 Will Blow Your Mind)'
15 Things You Didn’t Know about Bigfoot is a very modern piece of satire. Directed by Zach Lamplugh (Editor, known for Your Pretty Face is Going to Hell), 15 Things tells the story of a millennial journalist working for a website that is part Buzzfeed and part Vice. Poor Brian Emond (played by actor Brian Emond) just wants to do real journalism. Unfortunately, his current niche for the web based media company Compound is more along the lines of clickbait.

Avatar Zombies
I have to start off by saying, of course this story/stories will take place outside of the established avatar canon. So in no way shape or form would this interfere and/or influence the main avatar storyline/timeline. So please as you're reading this article; do not worry if I take any liberties or even choose to kill off a couple characters here and there. This is purely fan fiction. Lastly I also want to make some points very clear. In all of these stories the zombies would retain their bending abilities. But of course these undead benders be significantly more violent, more ruthless, and way more durable. I will also be using the word "zombie" very freely, you'll see.

Movie Review: 'Stealing Chaplin'
Stealing Chaplin is a charmless black comedy that intends to adopt the cache of Charlie Chaplin, by employing an impersonator as the film’s narrator, but comes up short at every turn. Stealing Chaplin stars Simon Phillips as Cal and Doug Phillips as Cal’s hapless brother Terry. Together they are low level con artists who are somehow $30,000 in debt to the Las Vegas mob or it’s various offshoots.

The Colors of What Dreams May Come
It makes sense that a movie focusing on a man killed in a car crash who discovers his own personal heaven would want to focus on the colors of his supposed desired afterlife. It is no surprise, therefore, that the film What Dreams May Come, directed by Vincent Ward and starring Robin Williams, is so colorful. Meaning can be extracted from the use of most, if not all, of the colors and their use in the film. Orange could be associated with the ethereal (the aura around Cuba Gooding Jr.’s ghost character Albert, the glowing fires of hell, etc.), green could be associated with the natural progression of the relationship between Williams’s Chris Nielsen and Annabella Sciorra’s Anna Nielsen (its use in scenes involving their eventual falling out and discussion of divorce, for instance), etc. However, there are three colors that have a particularly significant meaning throughout the course of the movie -- red, blue, and purple.

The Mise en Scene of Inception
Christopher Nolan has shown himself to be one of the most meticulous directors working today. From making an audience feel like they are experiencing a beach-side battle with World War II soldiers in Dunkirk to creating beautiful new planets and sci-fi worlds in Interstellar, his films are some of the most original and well-crafted films out there today. However, there is possibly no film of his that masters mise en scene, or the arrangement of visual elements of a movie, more so than Inception. The sci-fi thriller about a team of agents who retrieve information from people’s dreams is incredibly assembled, from the choice of effects used to Nolan’s meticulous story direction to the incredibly intense editing. While it may be confusing upon the first watch, all of the pieces fall together by the conclusion of the story, after which viewers will be rabid to re-watch to catch all of the elements they didn’t the first time around. There’s something about Christopher Nolan’s filmmaking that completely sucks in the audience, even if they don’t understand what they’re watching for the first half-hour or so.

Creating Pandora from The Ground Up: The Special Effects of Avatar
James Cameron’s Avatar has received criticism in the years after its initial release. Although it was incredibly hyped at the time of that release (becoming the highest-grossing film of all time until Avengers: Endgame broke that record in 2019), many people now chastise its cliche plot and one-note characters. However, the one thing that no one has ever denied about the film is the ground-breaking visual effects implemented in it. James Cameron originally wrote the film in the late '90s and intended to start filming after his equally successful and box-office-record-breaking Titanic, but he realized that the technology available at the time was not good enough to accomplish his vision. In 2005, he started working on the film again, the technology finally starting to catch up to his ideas. In 2009, viewers were able to lose themselves on the alien planet of Pandora and experience the culture of the Navi people, watching a science fiction world unfold in a way that they had never experienced before, because of what the filmmakers were able to do with those special effects.
