The 'Absolutely Fabulous' Trailer Has Absolutely Everything We Wanted!
Sweetie, darling, they're back! After seemingly leaving behind the lives of Edina Monsoon and Patsy Stone in 2005, fans of BBC's Absolutely Fabulous had always hoped for more. With a series of sporadic adverts, Comic Relief sketches and even three special episodes to commemorate the 20th anniversary, it was pretty clear we hadn't seen the last of the two Bollinger swigging socialites. The odd one-off was never going to be enough to satisfy the appetites of their cult fans, and rumours of a film version have been harder to kick than the pair's nicotine addiction. Off the back of the likes of Alan Partridge, the Ab Fab girls are the latest to make it to the silver screen with some pretty famous faces in tow.

Is THIS movie the Worst Superhero Film Ever Made?
We have been spoiled with some of the best Superhero flicks ever made, but this golden age of comic book films begs the question: why were all those bad superhero movies made in the first place? After all, there is a long legacy of great stories from the comics themselves, so why do things become awful when transferred to the big screen? I'm here to give a few thoughtful answers to that exact question, but as we contemplate that, let us first remember all of the terrible renditions of our favorite heroes with a short list (in no particular order). I've had to narrow this down to movies that I have seen, so be sure to add your own thoughts and comments on the movies I do not have listed here.
