Fans who felt uncomfortable watching a now-grown Arya Stark have her first romantic encounter on Game of Thrones can rest assured that they’re not alone, as star Maisie Williams took to Twitter to inform everyone her family went through the same thing. Maybe that revelation will help put the unexpected love scene into perspective for fans. In the latest episode of the HBO series, “A Knight of the Seven Kingdoms,” Arya chose to spend what might be her last night on Earth with Gendry (played by Joe Dempsie)....

For Game of Thrones fans, one of the hardest parts of watching the series (apart from the tragic, unexpected character deaths), is the year-long wait in between seasons. Already difficult enough as it was, fans of the show knew that the wait for its seventh season would be especially excruciating following the sixth season finale last year. Season 6 concluded with a number of long-awaited character moves, including Daenerys Targaryen finally assembling her army once and for all and sailing for Westeros....

Over the past two decades, the popularity of superhero and/or comic book movies has risen greatly, thanks to the successes of 20th Century Fox’s X-Men franchise, Marvel Studios’ Marvel Cinematic Universe, and Warner Bros’ DC Extended Universe. Starting off in 2000 with Bryan Singer’s X-Men, Fox’s mutant universe is the oldest of the current ongoing blockbuster franchises based on comic book superheroes. The X-Men cinematic world has seen both financial success and critical failure, ranging from X-Men: Days of Future Past to the spinoff X-Men Origins: Wolverine....

Six years later, many fans are still scratching their heads over the ending to Fox’s mystery science fiction series, Fringe - here’s exactly how the finale played out and what every detail means. Created by the superstar trio of J. J. Abrams, Alex Kurtzman and Roberto Orci, Fringe premiered in 2008 with the premise of a procedural FBI show that investigated inexplicable cases on the very fringes of fictional science. The dysfunctional central trio of Olivia (Anna Torv), Peter (Joshua Jackson) and Walter (John Noble) boasted a natural and compelling chemistry and were complimented by an impressive roster of supporting characters....

Disney’s highly-anticipated animated sequel, Frozen 2, is already exceeding box office expectations as it heads towards an astonishing $130 million opening weekend. The film is set three years after its Oscar-winning predecessor, Frozen, which initially debuted back in 2013. Directed by Chris Buck and Jennifer Lee, who also helmed the first film, Frozen 2 aims to answer questions leftover from Frozen, such as where Elsa’s powers came from and what happened to her and Anna’s parents....

Futurama is a fan favorite and even though the series has long ended, that hasn’t stopped fans from talking about the series. Perhaps with Matt Groening’s newest series hitting its second season, the talk has been a bit louder lately. The sometimes chaotic future setting of the series was one that immediately caught the attention of the fans. And while we all love the series as a whole, there’s no argument that some episodes are better than others....

HBO’s Game of Thrones brought the wonders and dangers of George R. R. Martin’s hit series to life despite the show’s unpopular ending. But every new season brought a bigger budget for the show allowing for more action-packed sequences and intensity like no other. With that, every season also meant one (sometimes two) large scale battle that brought to warring parties to the battlefield for a much-anticipated fight. The Battle of the Bastards, The Long Night and many more had fans glued to their seats with excitement, shock and a little fear for their favorite characters....

The Armies of Men will face off against the forces of the Night King in Game of Thrones season 8, but is it really that simple? Is House Stark - including Jon Snow, Sansa, Arya and Bran - actually a White Walker bloodline? A new theory has some compelling evidence and major implications for season 8. Based on George R.R. Martin’s book series “A Song of Ice and Fire,” Game of Thrones is an epic story that explores how sins of the past create events of the future....

An Easter egg in the 1998 slasher sequel Bride of Chucky teases Freddy Krueger, Jason Voorhees, and Michael Myers all living in the same universe. While they aren’t the dominant force now that they once were, slasher franchises undoubtedly ruled the 1980s, and still had some life left in the 1990s. The unholy trinity of slasher villains were of course A Nightmare on Elm Street’s Freddy Krueger, Friday the 13th’s Jason Voorhees, and Halloween’s Michael Myers....

Before the body-swapping plot of Jason Goes to Hell got set, Friday the 13th Part 9 almost saw Jason head to Los Angeles and interrupt a gang war. Jason Goes to Hell really should be a treasured entry into the Friday the 13th canon. The sequel contains nudity and an extended sex scene, and lots of gory kills, with some arguably laying claim to being among the best in the franchise....

WARNING: Very mild spoilers for Game of Thrones season 8, episode 4. What did Daenerys say to the body of Jorah Mormont at the start of Game of Thrones season 8, episode 4? Jorah, fondly known to fans as Ser Friendzone, died at the climax of the Battle of Winterfell, protecting Dany - who’d lost her dragon, Drogon - from wights, gallantly protecting her from their blades before Arya brought down the entire army by killing the Night King....

While it’s unfairly maligned by many, Friday the 13th’s 2009 remake is actually one of the better later entries in the Jason Voorhees franchise. Despite its status as one of horror’s most popular ongoing series, Friday the 13th has never really been where anyone looked for a truly great movie. A Friday the 13th installment is unlikely to ever compete with things like The Shining, The Exorcist, and The Silence of the Lambs for the title of horror’s best and most frightening entry....

When it comes to iconic friendship groups in sitcoms, the Friends gang is surely one of the most beloved ever. They’re the social circle that every squad tried to emulate, the gold standard of through-thick-and-thin friendship and everything it entails. Or are they? The fact is, it sometimes seems that Joey, Phoebe, Ross, Monica, Chandler, and Rachel just weren’t as close as we remember them being. Every relationship (platonic or otherwise) has its ups and downs, but sometimes issues go beyond that....

Phoebe Buffay is the quirky-but-lovable member of the Friends crew. She happily plays her guitar at Central Perk and makes her friends uncomfortable with her endearing randomness. She is content in her career as a masseuse and never lusts for material things. But there is more to Phoebe than meets the eye. She is the most mysterious one in the group with her wild tales of living in Prague, being a homeless teenager, and at some point rooming with an albino man....

According to Bloomberg, the simply named FTX gaming division will offer a “‘crypto-as-a-service’ platform through which gaming companies can launch tokens and offer support for NFTs.” The unit apparently is being assembled now, with a fully-remote team of new hires powering it. This follows a $100 million investment from FTX back in November 2021 that FTX made alongside two partners with a vested interest in supporting the Solana blockchain’s use among gaming companies, Bloomberg also noted....

Philip J Fry and Turanga Leela on Futurama have one of the most unlikely relationships in animation history. For it to happen, Fry had to accidentally end up in the cryogenic tank and essentially sleep for a thousand years. Then, he and Leela had to overcome the insanity around them, like Zoidberg. How can you start a stable, loving relationship with that lunatic scuttling around? Still, they found a way to make it work and build something special in New New York, finally getting married....

As the final season of Game of Thrones starts to wrap up, there promises to be more blood spilled fighting over the Iron Throne. As the end nears, it’s interesting to look back at all the moments that brought us to this point. Some moments seemed inevitable while others are brought on by the decisions of the show’s characters. Sometimes these decisions are made out of compassion, sometimes for one’s own self-interest....

Game of Thrones’ final scene shows a green plant sprouting through the snow North of the Wall - here’s what it means. The series final ever scene sees Jon Snow lead the Wildlings back to their wintery homeland, except things now look a little different. Far from the thick ice that has defined the lands beyond the wall, now there are green plants growing through. Jon Snow was sent to the Night’s Watch by King Bran as punishment for murdering Daenerys and to pacify his claim to the Iron Throne....

Game of Thrones is the type of series that contains multiple prophecies and mythical characters who may play a role in future events, and one such character is Azor Ahai, who might actually be Samwell Tarly, according to a new theory. Game of Thrones season 8’s premiere date is quickly approaching, and it will mark the beginning of the end for HBO’s acclaimed drama that has captured the imaginations of its viewers for years....
