5 Christmas Movies to Watch on Christmas!
Every family is different, especially once it comes to Christmas. Each family has its own traditions that they do on Christmas. For example, in my family, we open presents VERY early in the morning (I'm talking 7:30-8 here people) then we watch various Christmas movies all day, eat dinner while Christmas music is playing, and then we watch more movies while we sip on hot chocolate with marshmallows in it. My favorite part is the Christmas movies because we can spend quality time as a family enjoying Christmas. So here are a few of my Christmas movies and I hope they're yours, too.

From Jimi Hendrix To Pink Floyd: The End Credits Of 'Doctor Strange' Were Almost Very Different!
#Marvel released the classic end credits for Doctor Strange before the film had even aired, and fans were simply blown away. The #MCU is often criticized for its movie's forgettable scores, but Michael Giacchino's unique composition is simply beautiful. This Doctor Who fan can't help but feel that it's eerily familiar, while there's also just the faintest touch of Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy, another classic!

'Wonder Woman' Will Feature DC's Legendary Weapon: The God Killer
One of the most hotly-anticipated movies of 2017, Wonder Woman will present the backstory of Gal Gadot's already iconic Wonder Woman. The movie is set against the backdrop of a world gone mad, with Chris Pine's Steve Trevor crash-landing on the shores of Themyscira. But details of the film's overarching plot are still sketchy, and we haven't even been given official confirmation on the identity of the movie's main villain. Now, though, a tantalizing photo revealed to EW may have revealed a lot more than you think...

Disney's Casting Call For Live-Action 'Mulan' Reveals Major Details Of Their Adaptation
The latest Disney trend is adapting old animated classics into live-action remakes. These movies have been tremendous successes - The Jungle Book was one of the highlights of 2016 - and promise to only get better. Let's face it, Emma Watson's Beauty and the Beast is one of the most eagerly-anticipated films of 2017!

Why Jacob Kowalski's Optimistic Ending In 'Fantastic Beasts' Has A Sting In Its Tail...
Although Fantastic Beasts is the first in a series of five films, J. K. Rowling has played it pretty smart; the movie works as a stand-alone, meaning if (by some unbelievable misfortune) it fails to perform as well as hoped, the series can be ended without leaving fans with too many loose ends.

'Fantastic Beasts' Just Revealed How Terrifyingly Powerful Voldemort Really Was
Mild spoilers ahead for Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find Them! Perhaps the greatest dark wizard of all time, Lord Voldemort's shadow looms over the Harry Potter franchise. Ironically, Voldemort was actually born in 1926 — the year in which Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find Them takes place. Although he obviously doesn't play a part in the film, #FantasticBeasts actually sheds new light on just how powerful he really is.

Will Adam Warlock Make His MCU Debut In 'Guardians Of The Galaxy Vol. 2'?
2017 is sure to be one of Marvel's best years. Not only will we return to Asgard in Thor: Ragnarok and see Tom Holland's Spider-Man star in his first solo movie, we're also ready to travel spacebound for Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 2! In case you're not hyped enough already, it's worth bearing in mind that the promo for Guardians 2 is the second-most-viewed trailer of all time — behind only Beauty and the Beast!

The Marvel/Fox 'X-Men' Deal Is Officially Dead: Will We Ever See Mutants In The MCU?
For fans of the X-Men, there's one critical component missing in the #MCU: Professor Charles Xavier's team of mutants. With Fox owning the film rights to Marvel's iconic superheroes, fans have looked on with sorrow as we headed into Phase 3 of the MCU's history without a single mention of an X-gene.

Morgan and Marvel's X-23—Contrasting the Two Living Weapons!
The idea of a genetically engineered weapon — a human being shaped from birth to be a deadly warrior — is nothing new. Morgan toys with that idea pretty effectively, raising some intriguing philosophical questions, but she's far from the first 'living weapon' we've seen on our screens. Today, I want to compare and contrast Morgan with another living weapon, Marvel's X-23 (to appear in the third Wolverine film, believed to be called Wolverine: Weapon X). The two characters are very similar - but also surprisingly different...

Why 2008's Iron Man Was One of the Riskiest Ventures in Cinematic History
With Doctor Strange on the horizon, we're used to the idea that Marvel movies are guaranteed best-sellers. That wasn't always the case, though. Back in 2008, Marvel's Iron Man was one of the riskiest films for decades. It was the first movie by an untested studio, attempting to launch a Cinematic Universe unlike any we'd seen before. Iron Man was Marvel gambling everything; it was win big, or go bust. Today, I want to cast my eye back to the history of the MCU and remind us of some of the risks Marvel took back in those early days. You might be surprised!

What Role Could Karen Gillan's Nebula Play In 'Avengers: Infinity War'?

Will Yondu And Mantis Survive 'Guardians Of The Galaxy Vol. 2'?
Excitement is building for Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 2, not least because the team dynamic is set to change - new recruits include Karen Gillan's Nebula, Pom Klementieff's Mantis, and Michael Rooker's Yondu! The film remains something of a mystery; although the trailer promises the same tone and style of Guardians of the Galaxy, we're remarkably light on plot details.
