Thanks to film, television series and video games, superheroes are more popular than ever and even obscure characters like The Atom and Elektra are known and loved by the general audience. While superhero TV series may date back to the 1940s with certain black-and-white serials, there’s never been a time quite like the present in terms of how much superhero content is readily available for fans to consume....

Movie characters are recast with new actors all of the time in the filmmaking business, but that doesn’t mean it’s an easy thing to do.

The six Infinity Stones were the epicenter of the entire, (aptly named), Infinity Saga. They essentially served as the biggest MacGuffins in movie history, seeing as they simultaneously control space, mind, reality, power, time, and soul, and served to “end” the highest-grossing movie franchise ever. However, the plot states that something else is needed for one to combine the power of all the Stones (to, say, wipe out half of all life)....

Melisandre, one of the most compelling characters in the Game of Thrones series of books by George R. R. Martin, maneuvered and influenced the noble houses of Westeros with a cunning practicality. A red priestess that worshipped the Lord of Light, she wormed her way into Stannis Baratheon’s bed chamber and from there, into a position of authority over his machinations to sit on the Iron Throne. She had seen a prophecy that foretold him being Azor Ahai, the Prince Who Had Been Promised, a savior of Westeros 5,000 years in the making....

When watching a film about Iron Man and Captain America trying to knock each other senseless, viewers probably don’t expect the plot to include commentary on the social issues that afflict modern society. Although superhero movies may seem like they’re all CGI and special effects, many of the recent Marvel films have touched on deeper themes, with issues like racism, mental health and propaganda explored within the plot. Between the alien battles and the talking raccoons, it can be easy to overlook the deeper morals of Marvel movies, but they’re there, hiding beneath every Arc Reactor and Infinity Stone....

It’s a question for the ages. Which sitcom do you prefer, Friends or Seinfeld? Ask the wrong person and you could wind up on the other side of a long-winded diatribe about the “right” answer. The debate rages on in fan forums and social media platforms around the world, with no definitive answer ever coming out on top. Each series has its faults and their strengths. Although, at the end of the day, there is another subset of fans entirely who have an equal amount of love for each show....

They both also encourage collecting items and exploring the world around you through walking. While both games have their advantages and disadvantages, fans of Pokémon GO and Harry Potter now have the chance to enjoy and play both....
