HBO’s documentary The Inventor tells the story of Elizabeth Holmes, the woman whose Silicon Valley profile and star were rising along with her company, Theranos, which was supposed to alter health care forever. Her idea (and her product, which was called The Edison) was that you could get a blood test with only a drop of blood from the tip of your finger, which was so much better than the traditional way (i....

However, given the fact that Apple didn’t double down on secrecy, as Tim Cook said they would be, we need to treat some rumors with seriousity. The Wall Street Journal has recently reported that Apple is currently testing with its production partners a watch-like device, according to people familiar with the matter. And this was enough to start the rumor mill. Opinions, facts, speculations, assumptions – all of this has probably puzzled some readers....

The edgy young people of today despise laugh track sitcoms because it apparently insults their intelligences to be “told when they should laugh.” However, this writer here loves the multi-cam sitcom style and continues to favor those shows. Up until the late-2000s, sitcoms were primarily multi-cam outings until popular shows like The Office and 30 Rock brought a change with single camera sitcoms becoming a thing. Back in the ‘90s, however, laugh track sitcoms were still all the rage (do young people still talk like this?...

While the Marvel movie world has included hit after hit, they have had some big misses along the way. However, on the other hand, DC seems to have had more misses along the way than legitimate hits. Looking at the Rotten Tomatoes scores from most of the DC movies, both before the DC Extended Universe (DCEU) and after, and it is clear neither critics nor fans loved a lot of the DC releases through the years....

While it seemed as though the DC Extended Universe was disregarding the events of Batman v Superman and Justice League, Ezra Miller’s incarnation of the Flash might not be dead in the water after all. Miller recently announced that his Flash solo movie had been “absolutely confirmed” by Warner Bros. after months of uncertainty (at one point, it got so bad that Miller had taken to writing his own script in a desperate attempt to cling to the role)....

After 12 seasons, 279 episodes, and 12 years, fans of the Big Bang Theory have watched the award-winning show backwards and forwards. We’ve become attached to Leonard and Sheldon’s unique relationship, Penny’s maternal nature over “Shelly,” Raj overcoming his fear of talking to women, Howard branching out from his mother’s grasp, and a whole lot more. We’ve all geeked out over the same passions this group had and cried when things went south, and as amazing as the show is, we’re taking a look back at some moments that just didn’t make sense (and some fan theories that actually do)....

When it comes to the Spider-Man movies, there have been extreme ups and downs over the many years of rebooting the franchise.

They’ll be there for you. Friends was, and still is, one of the most iconic television shows of all time and will almost certainly possess that reputation for many years to come. The show was set in good old New York City and while you’d think that would have played a key role in proceedings, we’re not so sure it did. Today, we want to take a look at a few reasons why Friends didn’t really do all that much when it came to wanting us to make the move to the Big Apple - and on the flip side, we’ll also look at how it did....
