Guardians Of The Galaxy 2 Features A More Sympathetic Nebula

As one of the most loved and most different installments of the Marvel Cinematic Universe, Guardians of the Galaxy showed audiences just how much heart and humor a single comic book movie could contain. Despite its lack of easily recognizable characters, Marvel’s first foray into the cosmic realm easily became the highest grossing domestic release of 2014. Despite facing a much tougher lineup in 2017, Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 2 still holds a spot as number 2 of Screen Rant’s Most Anticipated Movies of 2017 - coming in as the top comic book movie....

Harry Potter 10 Things In The Order Of The Phoenix That Only Make Sense If You Read The Books

Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix is the longest book in the series. Because of this, it’s no wonder that there are many details from the book that weren’t able to make it into the movie. This is one of the Harry Potter movies where there are a lot of obvious differences between the book and the film.

Long before the Fantastic Beasts, there was Harry Potter, the franchise where young children enchanted and dreaming of the prospect of becoming witches or wizards attended a castle of a school. The final installment of the series entitled Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows: Part 2, was released a staggering nine years ago and brought JK Rowling’s epic story to a satisfying and action-packed conclusion.
