Brie Larson’s Carol Danvers could’ve received a very different, and comic inaccurate, costume in Captain Marvel if this concept art was chosen as the basis for her look. The latest entry in the Marvel Cinematic Universe helped bring their first lead female superhero to the big screen, and even though Marvel Studios worked in some of their usual changes from the source material, the film and Carol’s story is still largely based on her comic book history - especially the work of Kelly Sue DeConnick....

The Setup According to research done by the Honeynet Project, a nonprofit dedicated to internet security, most phishing scams start with the thieves seeking out a vulnerable server or website they can hack into and exploit. Once they’ve gained access, the phishers will upload bogus web pages that include forms they can use to capture the visitor’s data. These web pages and forms most often mimic bank account logins or sites like eBay or Paypal....

Bad news: the roll-call of quit or quitting staff includes: Sean Heber, the company’s first employee, Tristan O’Tierney, a senior iPhone engineer, and Louie Mantia, a designer, TechCrunch reports....

Marvel’s Captain America: Civil War has been in U.S. cinemas a matter of days and already it’s been a huge hit, amassing enormous profits in its opening weekend. Since opening in China, it’s also wowed audiences there too, and for good reason: Civil War gives us everything we want from an Avengers movie without actually being one. Instead, it retains the identity of Steve Rogers’ solo outings while introducing a host of new and familiar franchise faces, including Robert Downey Jr....

On top of the release of brand new posters, Captain Marvel tickets are now available for pre-sale.

Here is everything you need to know about Carnage - the villain of Venom 2 played by Woody Harrelson. When the character of Venom was first created in 1988, he was intended to be Spider-Man’s most dangerous enemy ever. His popularity with fans, however, killed the original plans to see Venom destroyed in a climactic battle. This left Spider-Man’s writers with the question of what to do to keep Venom around while also giving him another purpose beyond destroying Spider-Man....

The official trailer is here for Disney and Pixar’s upcoming threequel, Cars 3. Pixar’s Cars franchise continues to be one of its most popular, thanks, in part to its enduring characters, which have pulled in vast sums of money from merchandising. Including the Planes spinoffs, the Cars franchise has taken in over $1.4 billion worldwide in theaters, and that total is about to rise with the release of Cars 3. Owen Wilson will once again return to voice the number one race car, with Larry the Cable Guy as his trusty sidekick, Mater....

With Marvel Studios building an increasingly expansive and interconnected universe, events in one of the Marvel movies can have consequences for each one that comes after it. That will certainly be the case with Captain America: Civil War, in which the various heroes introduced throughout past movies will have to take sides in a fight that will determine the course of the Marvel Cinematic Universe to come. Some of those heroes will be new to the MCU, such as Spider-Man and Black Panther, but their stories aren’t the only ones that will be shaped by the events of Civil War....

The Marvel Cinematic Universe has come a long way since the first tease of “The Avengers Initiative” back in 2008 - during the post-credits scene of Iron Man. Two short years later, and director Jon Favreau returned with Iron Man 2 - which officially introduced several shared universe story elements and characters, most notably: Agent Coulson and Natasha Romanoff (aka Black Widow). Despite years of fan-favorite comic book stories, the packed plot and Phase 1 movie set-up of Iron Man 2 prevented Scarlett Johansson from placing Black Widow front and center in the MCU spotlight....

It was the Marquis de Vauvenargues, a French moralist and writer who once said that “Great men undertake great things because they are great… fools, because they think them easy.” Those words most definitely apply to the DC Comics villain Captain Boomerang (a.k.a. George “Digger” Harkness), a beer-swilling, racist, ‘ranging member of The Flash’s infamous Rogues Gallery who tangled with forces well above him and, somehow, found his way into comic book readers’ hearts....

Disney has a live-action Rapunzel movie in development, but which actress would be the best pick to play Rapunzel herself? Following in the vein of projects like Cinderella, Beauty and the Beast, and The Lion King, it appears that Disney will now be bringing princess Rapunzel to the big screen in live-action. However, an adaption of Tangled would make it the first 3D animated Disney film to receive a live-action remake....

Let it never be said that Captain America can’t hold his own alongside the likes of super-powered gods, spider-people, and mutants. However, Steve Rogers is first and foremost a soldier of the greatest generation. Marvel’s upcoming crossover event Empyre promises to unleash one of the biggest cosmic threats ever seen in the Marvel Universe.

I’m very passionate about the podcast industry. I believe it’s the most exciting medium for sharing content on the market today. The technology to create a show is accessible to all, the technology to listen to shows is available for smartphones and even Apple Watch (listening to podcasts while running was one of the main reasons I bought an Apple Watch). I was recently at a local running event, and afterward, everyone met up at a burger place to consume the calories we just burned....
