George RR Martin truly did an incredible job, not only crafting a compelling story, but also of building a layered intriguing world around that story.

As with any fantasy tale, these creatures can appear as friends or destructive foes, though this article will only focus on the latter....

Frankenstein and The Wolf Man have met on the big screen once before in Frankenstein Meets The Wolf Man (1943), but the fight between the two of them, for the most part, didn’t declare a clear winner. Given the resurrection of Universal’s “dark universe”, modern audiences will soon see these beloved monsters on the big screen once more.

From 1994 to 2004, Chandler Bing gave fans so many fantastic moments and a plethora of hilarious lines....

Six years after the roaring success of Disney’s Frozen, directors Chris Buck and Jennifer Lee returned to continue the tale of sisters Elsa (Menzel) and Anna (Kristen Bell).

One more episode remains before we have to say goodbye to Game of Thrones forever (unless you include spin-offs). This final season has proven to be divisive for fans as storylines come to their dramatic ends.
