WARNING: This article contains MILD SPOILERS for Aquaman Amber Heard was hesitant about playing Mera in Aquaman until she read the comics. Before she agreed to sign on to the DC adaptation, Heard had some reservations - not only because she was unfamiliar with the character, but with comic books in general. Before Aquaman, Heard made her debut in the DCEU in Justice League during a cameo appearance. In the film, she meets Arthur Curry/Aquaman (Jason Momoa) after a brief altercation with the villain Steppenwolf, and she and Arthur then reminisce about his mother, Queen Atlanna (Nicole Kidman), who he believes abandoned him when he was a child....

Ridley Scott was just getting started with Prometheus, a sort-of prequel to his masterpiece Alien. We have been coveting each and every reveal of additional information, from trailers to plot-leaks, regarding Scott’s latest return to the franchise Alien: Covenant, including this most recent “prologue.” In the upcoming May release, the crew of the colony ship Covenant discover “an uncharted paradise,” where they meet the synthetic survivor of the previous film, David (Michael Fassbender)....

Ridley Scott’s original Alien changes from being an eerily atmospheric movie set in outer space to a full-blown horror film, during the infamous dinner scene in which John Hurt’s character Kane suffers a gruesome death by way of Chest-burster. Nearly forty years later and the subsequent Alien film property birthed by Scott’s 1979 classic is one of the rare big-budget, consistently R-Rated franchises (with the exception of Paul W.S. Anderson’s Alien vs....

Warning: SPOILERS for Alien: Covenant ahead - A sure sign that we’re in the final stretch of the Alien: Covenant marketing blitz came to SXSW with last night’s screening of Alien. Even the shot-in-Austin opening night premiere of Song to Song, which played prior at the fest’s showcase Paramount Theatre, was soon no match for a 40 year old classic that still has teeth - two sets of teeth, to be exact....

A Belgian judge is reportedly considering ordering local ISPs to block access to all Apple websites in the country in response to a long-running dispute over the company’s promotion of AppleCare warranties, according to local newspapers cited by Tech.eu. A case brought by the consumer protection group FPS Economy argued that Apple misleads consumers by claiming a standard warranty of one year, and selling an optional AppleCare extension, when EU law means that manufacturers are legally obliged to offer a minimum warranty of two years as standard … The judge is said to be hesitating over this rather extreme proposal after it was pointed out the problems that would be caused for Apple customers in Belgium if they were unable to access Apple servers for services like iCloud and iTunes....

Hell is literally about to break loose in season 3 of Ash Vs. Evil Dead. The original Evil Dead is a grimy, no-budget horror movie made by a group of young filmmakers in the woods. It was also the debut of director Sam Raimi (Spider-Man), who proved his talent at an early age by crafting an intense, gory ride with inventive camera work. The movie also made a star of B-movie icon Bruce Campbell, but it wasn’t until Evil Dead 2 the actor would be able to show off his comedy chops....

Few things are as important to a movie as its ending. The ideal ending not only wraps up the film’s plot points, but can also drive home the movie’s main themes and is a chance for filmmakers to give one last powerful emotional punch before their audience leaves the theater and goes home. However, sometimes, the best ending isn’t the one that actually ends up in the movie. Whether it’s due to studio interference, script rewrites, or test audience feedback, there are times where the perfect ending is replaced by something a little more standard and lackluster....

Ridley Scott is following up the loosely-connected Alien prequel Prometheus with a return to a focus on the iconic (and terrifying) xenomorphs that have populated most installments of the Alien franchise. Although Covenant will contain some overarching connections to Scott’s 1979 original, it appears to largely act as a loose bridge between Prometheus and the first Alien....

Fallout is the classic action/RPG franchise that lets players have fun salvaging for supplies in a bleak, hopeless nuclear landscape, but which is the best Fallout game? The original Fallout was the spiritual successor to a game called Wasteland and casts players as a survivor who must venture forth from the safety of their fallout shelter to explore the dangerous world outside.
