The blockbuster news this morning is that 21st Century Fox is in talks to sell their movie rights to Disney. CNBC reports that Fox has been holding talks to sell the movie studio to Disney which owns Marvel. Currently, Marvel Studios owns the rights to the largest number of Marvel comic book characters. But the company sold the live-action movie rights to several other studios. So, for example, they can have a movie with Captain America and Thor, but not Wolverine or the X-Men. This sale could change all that. The talks have taken place over the last few weeks…

Why do they wear jewelry in The Last Jedi? Thank Carrie Fisher. Fans have noticed that the costumes in the latest Star Wars film include jewelry. None of the women wore earrings. No one wore necklaces or rings, but that’s changed in this movie.

Captain America: Civil War – Falcon (Anthony Mackie) Anthony Mackie is not a fan of the new Spider-Man. Tom Holland plays Peter Parker / Spider-Man in the MCU and he’s done some scenes with Anthony Mackie who plays Falcon in Captain America: Civil War, Avengers Infinity War and Avengers 4. Mackie makes outlandish comments, but this one is so consistent it makes you wonder how much of an act it is. Mackie was at a panel at MCM Comic Con in London last weekend and had some choice words for his co-star. “He’s an a******.” Mackie said, “I mean, this…

Obi-Wan Kenobi (Alec Guinness) Force Ghost The Force surrounds us, but it doesn’t always give us useful powers.

In the Star Wars universe, it’s a mystical energy field that gives the heroic Jedi and the evil Sith Lords their power. Throughout the movies, animated series and books we’ve seen the Force lift small rocks and burn people to death. Choke people and pass them slices of pears. But these abilities are nothing compared to some of the useless powers…
