While we were initially told that would not be the case, it would seem that you cannot keep a good bounty hunter down, and Boba Fett became a big part of the shows second season. It was great to see Boba back in his Mandalorian armor, but fans that know him well likely realized that he wasnt quite back to all his former glory, as there were a ...

CinemaBlend Copy to clipboard 2020 has been a basically awful year. This is mostly an indisputable fact. Between global pandemic, hurricanes and wildfires, and now actual bombings, were all ready to move forward into something better.

Technically its the number two movie of 2020, behind Bad Boys for Life, since 1917 was technically released in 2019. Its hard to believe after the year weve had that Sonic the Hedgehog, and its tremendous success, is actually fairly recent. However, the movie did so well that a sequel is already in the plan, and following a rumor that a popular character from the Sonic the He...

Pirates of the Caribbean franchise, the only thing we really no for sure about that future is that it wont include Johnny Depp or Captain Jack Sparrow. Even the possibility of a cameo for the character in a future movie has seemingly been put to rest. This will certainly make for an interesting new movie as, for many, Captain Jack Sparrow and the Pirates of the Caribbean film franchise are pretty tightly wound together. One person who clearly feels that way is another member of the franchise, ...

Now, Snyder has shown off some of the work thats being done, and it must be said, it looks pretty amazing. The ...

The fact is that a lot of people meet their significant others through work, and thats not all that different just because your work might involve you pretending to be other people in front of a camera. This makes some recent reports that Tom Cruise and Hayley Atwell have started seeing each other, while filming Mission: Impossible 7 together, perfectly believable. But perhaps we should not believe them, ...
