Awards season is heating up, with Hollywood’s biggest night right around the corner. The Oscars are set to air this Sunday, February, ninth, with performers, filmmakers, and industry bigwigs coming out to strut the red carpet. This year’s best actor race is a stacked category, featuring a varied set of performances from the past year. While many have their bets on Joaquin Phoneix’s Jokerrole, some have taken time to ponder an Adam Driver win this year for his performance in Noah Baumbach’s Marriage Story....

Following the massive success of Joker, there is added pressure on the DC Extended Universe to step up its game, and fans are waiting to see how Birds of Prey will pan out. We’ve covered our apprehension and anticipation of this film because of Suicide Squad’s performance, but now it’s time to acknowledge the strengths of that movie. There were definite plus points in the otherwise ill-received film, which will enable Birds of Prey to come out as a winner if expanded upon....

In this article, you’ll see the best apps you should use on your Android whenever you need to quickly capture important notes....

Modern Family is known for its hilarious portrayal of modern relationships. We get to take a look into the lifestyle of a gigantic family filled with big personalities, from the charmingly extroverted Gloria to the goofy-but-loveable Phil. Being a show that is all about relationships, it is no surprise that there has been a handful of romantic connections throughout all ten seasons of the series. Some of the couples on the show are absolutely goal-worthy while others never really made any sense to us....

The Jurassic Park and Jurassic World movies have had their ups and downs. With another Jurassic World movie on the horizon, we have started thinking about what we expect and hope to see in this sequel. The main attractions of these films are obviously the dinosaurs. As such, we are looking forward to any new marvelous behemoths the upcoming movie throws our way. We also know what we aren’t looking forward to....

As the amount of reliable options to reach an audience grow increasingly scarce, the voice of your employees continues to prove itself as one of the most powerful and influential marketing tools around. Given that the average social media user has around 842 connections, and knowing that people pay twice as much attention to content published by people they know, an employee advocacy program can skyrocket your brand reach to new heights....

The ’90s often trigger bouts of nostalgia, especially when it comes to movies and television. While some content from that decade holds up, others are best forgotten. The ’90s gave movie fans gritty action flicks with social commentary on capitalist culture and ridiculous comedies with slapstick humor that blurred the lines of grotesque and funny. From romantic to sadistic, movies of the ’90s sparked conversation in their time and continue to fuel the great debate of, “Are those films really as good as we remembered?...

No TV series has ever been perfect, no matter how popular or critically acclaimed they might be, and Supernatural has followed a similar pattern. Fans have been vocal in their love for the series, something that brought us fifteen years worth of material. Everything has to end sometime, though, and Supernatural’s time is near. We’ve got enough out of the show to last a lifetime, but there’s nothing that can replicate having new content every season, so there are things that we’ll be missing when it ends....

No one asked for a Home Alone remake, but Disney is bringing it anyway with Jojo Rabbit star Archie Yates rumored to play the young protagonist of the film. What’s even worse is that the remake won’t be in theaters; it will be on Disney+. Come on, now. Even though Disney’s mega plan of a remake drew backlash from fans, it’s understandable since the current generation of kids also need to experience the same thrills that the youth of the ’80s and ’90s got from the films....

Even if documents already released to these sites don’t cover what you’re looking for, there’s also typically contact information and instructions on filing your own Freedom of Information Act (FOIA) request. President Lyndon B. Johnson signed the Freedom of Information Act into law in 1966. The following FOIA websites are local and federal government responses to this law. They are a way to make government more transparent and truly for the people....

We’re proud to say that some of Instagram’s cutest pets use Plann to manage their feeds.

From exploring the horrors of space to the wonders of time travel, sci-fi has given us many memorable moments and characters whose existence we can only dream about. Cyborgs gone rogue, aliens living among us or ordinary people gaining special abilities after contact with the unexplained. Sci-fi is full of familiar tropes and themes that get trotted out time and again....

With classic World of Warcraft only a few months away, a lot of information about the old game that was lost or forgotten is appearing again. This was the genesis of Azeroth, and programmers and writers were still ironing out the kinks. A few items appeared that were fun to use and looked cool but offered almost no improvement to your character. Remember when Shaman gear would drop in an Alliance raid or Paladin gear for Horde?...

In the new era of Star Wars content, some of the best stories have come from the animated television series. Star Wars Rebels debuted in 2014 and largely kicked off a new age of Star Wars, airing a season and half worth of episodes before The Force Awakens hit theaters. Rebels ended up resonating well with most fans, culminating in a thrilling and satisfying fourth season. After Rebels ended, Lucasfilm wasted no time rolling out a new animated television series, this time in the form of Star Wars Resistance....

Renowned director Quentin Tarantino once stated that he will retire after making his tenth film. Last year’s Once Upon A Time… in Hollywood was his ninth, so he has only one left. Are we worried? Not at all. In the entertainment business, coming out of retirement is a pretty common thing. Tarantino is only 56 years old and we don’t see why he shouldn’t make movies until he’s in his 70s like Scorsese....

New Mutants has officially been given a second trailer showcasing that Disney now seems pretty committed to releasing the film in some form.

There’s plenty of people who believe that this latest mutant film should actually be the first appearance of the species in the Marvel Cinematic Universe. Here’s five reasons why we agree with that and five reasons we think the film should be separate from the MCU....
