We love the main characters of the Fast & Furious franchise. But as great as they are, it’s just as much about the cars, isn’t it? Watch just one movie from the series and you will be inundated with close-up shots of fenders and exhaust pipes, and it feels like a good chunk of the films are characters standing in a garage or outside goggling at an exotic car. And that’s okay with us, because the cars featured are varied and quite amazing; street racing machines, muscle cars, exotics, classics, and much more....

The indie mega-hit Hollow Knight draws obvious inspiration from many older titles, synthesizing these influences into a unique and successful identity. The atmosphere and lore are reminiscent of Dark Souls, the exploration of Super Metroid, and the combat of classic action platformers like Mega Man. It has been recently confirmed that the much-awaited sequel to Hollow Knight will also appear on PlayStation consoles (via Game Rant). Fans of Hollow Knight have long been waiting for its sequel, which now focuses on Hornet, who is one of the most memorable characters in the franchise....

Matt Damon is one of the world’s finest actors, and he’s worked with some of the greatest directors in Hollywood – Ridley Scott, Christopher Nolan, Steven Soderbergh, Clint Eastwood. He made his name with Good Will Hunting, a drama that he co-wrote for himself to star in and ended up winning an Oscar for it at a record-breaking young age. He has an incredible body of work. But not every movie can be The Martian....

One of the many favorite pastimes in the Disney fandom is trying to locate the various Hidden Mickeys sprinkled in throughout their animated features. Almost every one of the original animated classics features at least one Mickey head hiding somewhere in the background or foreground serving as the animator’s wink to the audience. Some Hidden Mickeys are very plainly seen, like in paint splatters or decor, but then there are those where you have to look twice to catch them....

With the new year comes resolutions, and for many people, cleaning up and de-cluttering is a pretty big one. Thankfully, we were able to tune into Netflix’s Tidying Up With Marie Kondo and pick up a few things (no pun intended). Ever since Marie Kondo’s New York Times bestselling book The Life-Changing Magic Of Tidying Up was published in 2o12, people have loved her methods. We’ve all heard that she wants us to throw out objects that don’t “spark job” but there is actually a lot more to her theory....

It was the spring of 2001, right before the era of pop bands was about to die out. It was the last breath of a nieve culture before 9/11 would change America forever. Then, suddenly, Josie and the Pussycats, a movie based on the Archie comic, came out and completely bashed pop culture and told audiences that they were social pawns who would do whatever the media tells them to. Naturally, audiences and critics weren’t happy....

There are tons of terrible couples scattered throughout the history of television that we’ve all seen in the last decade. Ramsay Bolton and Sansa Stark on Game of Thrones, for example, are a match made in hell. Jan Levinson and Michael Scott on The Office are another great example of a horrendous match. Walter White and Skyler White on Breaking Bad weren’t exactly going to be categorized as “couple goals”. And Betty Draper and Don Draper on Mad Men were just destined for disaster....

The Big Bang Theory may have revolved around friendships, relationships, and science, but betrayal found its way into this tight-knit group. Despite all the achievements this group had and all of the memories they shared, there were moments when this group hurt each other tremendously. Whether it was work-related or had to do with a significant other, this group stepped on each other’s toes more than once. Luckily, they always came out on top and didn’t let the betrayals ruin their friendship....

Pedro Pascal is everywhere lately between starring in The Mandalorian and buzz around his villainous role in the upcoming Wonder Woman 1984. He’s more known for his roles on television in Game of Thrones and Netflix’s Narcos. Although his television resume is pretty iconic and growing still, he doesn’t have as much experience on the silver screen, but there seems to be a sudden influx of him appearing in more movies lately....

When Marvel Studios was done bringing the best-known properties available to them, like Iron Man and Captain America and the Hulk, to the big screen in the MCU, they branched out to the more obscure ones like Black Panther and Doctor Strange and the Guardians of the Galaxy. They have a way of making the obscure characters huge with just one cinematic appearance. PREVIOUSLY: Ranked: The Best Netflix Marvel Shows There are plenty of lesser-known Marvel characters out there who are perfect fodder for the silver screen, and the MCU isn’t going away any time soon....

In most of the western world we define time as BC and AD (or BCE and CE if you want to take the religious factor out of it), but it seems fair to say that after the release of The Mandalorian we can adjust our calendars to BBY and ABY. Ironically this is how the Star Wars universe timeline is measured, an abbreviation for “before battle of Yavin” and “after battle of Yavin”, but in our case we mean “before baby Yoda” and “after baby Yoda”....

Total Recall is one of Arnold Schwarzenegger’s most fascinating movies. The science-fiction action film is set in the future and centers around a mild-mannered man named Douglas Quaid, who is seeking to escape his normal life. When he signs up for a program that simulates an adventure in his mind, Quaid finds himself mixed up in a conspiracy taking place on the colonized society of Mars. The movie embraces the wildness and weirdness of the insane plot, creating a strange and fun adventure....

Agent Carter (2015) just finished its second season, and ABC has been quiet as to whether or not it will be renewed for a third. The show has been positively received by critics, but the viewership has steadily decreased over the course of both seasons, with the most recent season’s finale sporting low Nielsen ratings and viewership. The show follows the career of Agent Peggy Carter, a female agent working at the Strategic Scientific Reserve, an Allied spy agency, in the years following World War II....

Once Upon A Time was a show full of magic, fairytale characters, incredible storytelling, and most importantly, true love. While they may have had ups and downs throughout the series’ seven-season run, they still created a world we were all lucky to be a part of each week. What happens behind the scenes of a television show can sometimes be even more interesting than the show itself, we have come to learn....

Is it possible to look back on our tweenhood years and not cringe? If you’ve watched Hulu’s new show Pen15, the answer is a resounding yes. The show is created by, and stars, Maya Erskine and Anna Konkle as their thirteen-year-old selves, while their peers are portrayed by real middle schoolers, and the results are just as hilarious and poignant as they are awkward. Pen15 captures universal adolescent moments like your first kiss, body issues, and… let’s just say, “self-satisfaction....

The threat of insecure deserialization has only recently been added to OWASP as a result of surveys with security researchers and increased reports of this attack vector being leveraged by hackers. Before we can understand what the attack is, we need to first look at how serialization within an application works, and how it ties in with insecure deserialization. What is serialization? Serialization is the process of turning an object into a data format or byte stream that can be restored at a later time....

Bucky Barnes in the MCU is a character that many fans love, although he hasn’t had all that much screen time over the years. While he has been a supporting character, the details about him are relatively few and are mostly learned through the eyes of Steve Rogers. The history of Bucky Barnes in Marvel comics is a substrate and much more complicated story. His origins and appearances in the comics vary, and the MCU version took inspiration from a couple of different comic runs....

In the groundbreaking first Avengers movie, Nick Fury brought Earth’s mightiest heroes together to battle Loki and the Chitauri. Then, in the inevitably disappointing second film, Age of Ultron, the team expanded as it faced a villain of its own creation (well, Tony Stark and Bruce Banner’s creation). But the third movie was perhaps the boldest, as it brought together characters from wildly different worlds like Black Panther, Doctor Strange, the Guardians of the Galaxy, and the pre-existing Avengers, for a completely different kind of movie....

With hundreds of characters, dozens of timelines and several decades’ worth of content, Marvel Comics has shaped modern pop culture through its wealth of creativity. Like many other fruitful ventures, the comic books have been adapted into countless movies over the years. The movies don’t always enjoy the same box office or critical success, but they’re always among the most hyped and high-profile movies. The creatives at Marvel have proven themselves to be masterful storytellers, weaving together disparate narratives to form the most complex stories....
