Growing Old Gracefully: Marisa Tomei Wanted To Play Older Aunt May In 'Spider-Man: Homecoming'
While you may only be as old as you feel, some fans are already sKeptical of how #MarisaTomei's young #AuntMay will fit into #SpiderManHomecoming. We first met the flirty fosterer in Captain America: Civil War, where the housewife swooned over #RobertDowneyJr's Tony Stark. It was a decidedly younger version of May than we have seen in the past, going from groovy granny to AILF (aunt I'd like to...) With both Aunt May and Stark featuring heavily in the upcoming #superhero epic, Tomei has now revealed that she too imagined a more classic iteration of May.

How 'Dead Poets Society' Changed My Entire Outlook on Life
To quote Henry David Thoreau: "All men want, not something to do with, but something to do, or rather something to be." Although Thoreau's words were a bit over my head when I first read them, I remember that I've always been drawn to the writings of much smarter men and women than I. So, while reading books like Walden, A Grief Observed by C.S. Lewis and The Selfish Gene by Richard Dawkins in my early teenage years, I gleaned wisdom without actually understanding what I was absorbing. It wasn't until later in my life when I first saw the movie Dead Poets Society that I began recalling the words of wisdom that Thoreau had imparted upon me several years earlier.

Star Wars Episode VIII: Ramnifications of Finn V. Kylo Ren?
Star Wars Episode VII saw the introduction of three pivotal characters to the new Star Wars saga, Daisy Ridley in the role of Rey, John Boyega playing Finn, and Adam Driver as Kylo Ren. These new roles were introduced with a substantial amount of backstory for each of them built in to their character dynamics. Daisy Ridley's Rey is the force-sensitive offspring of another force-wielding Jedi within the Star Wars Universe, John Boyega's character of Finn is another Force-sensitive individual in the Star Wars universe who probably is of a lineage that shares Force-sensitive abilities, and Kylo Ren who is played by actor, Adam Driver is the only confirmed Jedi offspring in Episode 7, being the son of Leia Organa and Han Solo, cementing his expanded role in the Star Wars universe.

Zombieland 2 Announced, Logo Revealed at CinemaCon
The long awaited sequel to the 2009 hit, Zombieland is finally making some headway. "Zombieland 2" has just been given its first preview in the form of a logo reveal at CinemaCon earlier this evening. Zombieland(2009) followed a shy student(Jesse Eisenberg) accompanied by a gun-toting renegade(Woody Harrelson), and a twenty-something con-artist(Emma Stone) along with her younger sister(Abigail Breslin) traversing the undead landscape of a post-apocalyptic America. Their mission was intended to split the group up in their respective paths but the film concluded with the team sailing off into the sunset together. That's where we'd find them now in "Zombieland 2" if it weren't for the failed Zombieland Amazon series. The failed Amazon series was a continuity to Zombieland; it failed to hold an audience and didn't exhibit any of the comedic antics found in the popular (2009)Zombieland. However, "Zombieland 2" is the opportunity for the franchise to correct that mistake by rewriting the continuity in the franchise.

Claws For Thought: Richard E. Grant's Role Revealed For 'Logan'
Those hoping for a "sinister" turn of events for Richard E. Grant's role in the upcoming Logan film will be sadly disappointed. Since the 59-year-old's casting back in April as a "mad scientist," many had hoped that the proper Englishman could be portraying Mister Sinister, the next logical villain after Oscar Isaac's Apocalypse. Sadly, Hugh Jackman took to Twitter with a usual sombre Logan picture in black and white. The caption stated "Rice. Logan. 3.3.17." Well that debunks that theory!

With Deadpool's Success, Would Marvel Be Willing to Adapt Grittier Stories Like Circle of Four?
The unexpected and huge success of fan favorite character Deadpool might be changing the game for comic book movies. Most of the recent comic book iterations brought to life on the big screen have been generally relatable to audiences of all ages but with Deadpool's R-rated feature being a huge success for Fox, could it pave the way for other gritty R-rated stories to make it to the big screen?
