Earlier this year, Ryan Reynolds reprised his role as the merc with a mouth and managed to supersede fan expectations by giving us a sequel to Deadpool that was just as good (or perhaps even better) than the original. We got bloody gore and highly inappropriate jokes, awesome new characters…

In the episode, Al Gore visits town, and spreads apocalyptic warnings about an imaginary monster called ManBearPig, an allegory for global warming. Gore…

Can you believe it's been five full years since Breaking Bad came to a close? And ten since the show's very first episode? The show, in my opinion, brought its story to an end at the perfect time and in the perfect way, but that didn't mean that creator Vince…

It's been a decade since Step Brothers hit theaters, and I've still got "Boats and Hoes" stuck in my head. The movie starred Will Ferrell and John C. Reilly as Brennan and Dale, two middle-aged man-children who still live at home. When Brennan's divorced mother marries Dale's widowed father, the…

There are some actors who are so closely associated with an iconic movie role, that you just can't picture anyone else effectively playing the part. After watching them on the big screen, and seeing the star own the role, you just think "They are the character." Just imagine Han Solo…

It's been five long years since Breaking Bad, widely regarded by critics as one of the best television shows ever made, finished for good. Even though we have the spin-off, Better Call Saul (starring Bob Odenkirk as the eponymous morally-dubious lawyer), it doesn't quite scratch the same itch for many people…

The first 'Shrek' movie came out in 2001, and audiences fell in love with the grouchy, kindhearted ogre. Originally, Chris Farley was hired to voice the character, and recorded almost all of the dialogue, but before he could finish, he tragically died from an accidental drug overdose.

Throughout October, I'm sure many of us tried to get into the Halloween spirit by watching a scary film or two. Perhaps you finally psyched yourself up to watch the remake of IT from last year, or maybe you went for an old classic such as The Exorcist or The…

The Walking Dead has been going strong for years now, with many different castmembers joining and leaving the show. It's part of the premise really - no one is safe in this post-apocalyptic world, so there's no certainty that you're favourite character will make it out alive by the end…
