With The Defenders on deck for its August 18th premiere, The Punisher waits loudly in the wings. Frank Castle made a huge impact in the second season of Daredevil, one that warranted Jon Bernthal getting his own spinoff in the Marvel and Netflix universe. Though The Punisher knocked Matt Murdock off balance in season two, he found an unlikely ally in Karen Page (Deborah Ann Woll). Despite Frank Castle’s heinous acts of violence and retribution, Karen defends his dignity and character as if he’s family....

A reoccurring theme on the CW’s Crazy Ex-Girlfriend is how much Rebecca Bunch lies. Lying is her MO, and she uses her incredible genius to gain the upper hand over many people around her. Granted, many of Rebecca’s lies fall apart and leave her in incredibly awkward and uncomfortable positions — which make for great TV. Throughout four seasons, we’ve seen Rebecca lie and cover up her lies with even more lies....

Criterion isn’t taking FilmStruck’s closure lying down, as the curator of classic and contemporary films has announced an all-new independent Criterion Channel will launch in the spring of 2019. The news of FilmStruck’s demise came late in October, following the merger between AT&T and Time Warner. In an effort to justify its shuttering, Warner Digital Media described FilmStruck as “largely a niche service,” a description that didn’t go over too well with the more than 50,000 people who signed the change....

Daniel Dae Kim has shared his thoughts on his sudden exit from CBS’ police procedural, Hawaii Five-0. The actor, who played Chin Ho Kelly on the show, had been part of the revival of the hit ’60s property of the same name since its inception in 2010 and he was a pivotal gameplayer in the overall narrative of the series - despite the focus being mainly on Steve (Alex O’Loughlin) and Dano (Scott Caan)....

A new rumor suggests that director Danny Boyle may soon take the helm of the next James Bond movie, more popularly known as Bond 25. Development on 007’s next big screen outing has been slow moving. Following the 2015 release of Spectre — which debuted to lukewarm reviews but still managed to rake in a cool $880 million at the global box office — the long-running franchise found itself at a crossroads....

The first season of Marvel’s Netflix series Daredevil followed blind lawyer Matt Murdock (Charlie Cox) as he evolved from a black-clad Hell’s Kitchen vigilante into the eponymous superhero and took down crime lord Wilson Fisk (Vincent D’Onofrio). The show’s second season premieres on the streaming outlet this March, and will introduce all new threats and complications for Matt Murdock, including the arrival of The Punisher (Jon Bernthal) and his “psychotic” ex, Elektra (Elodie Yung)....

Not unlike its titular hero, season 3 of Daredevil isn’t pulling any punches when it comes to characters, plot, and themes. After tackling faith, inner demons, and corruption, the third season of the Netflix series will pack a topical punch, taking inspiration from the current political climate. In the third season of Daredevil, Matt Murdock (Charlie Cox) is reeling from the events of the past two seasons, as well as The Defenders, and it’s taken a noticeable toll on him....

Crazy Ex-Girlfriend started off with Rebecca Bunch dropping her life in New York City to move to West Covina, California to be with her ex-boyfriend (Josh) from high school. The problem is, she moved to the small town on a whim and did everything in her power to reinsert her life in her ex’s. Along the way to claiming Josh’s heart, Rebecca had her fair share of lovers along the way, and let’s just say they weren’t always winners....

No fewer than six examples of Mac malware were discovered last month, including one which exploits a vulnerability in macOS Gatekeeper. The latest example – dubbed OSX/CrescentCore – takes steps to hide from security researchers. Security company Intego says it has found CrescentCore on multiple websites, posing as, you guessed it, a Flash Player updater … The company reported on it in a blog post. As the company notes, sketchy sites claiming to offer free versions of movies, TV shows, music and books are an extremely common source of malware....

Among the numerous surprises in the Arrowerse’s Crisis On Infinite Earths, it’s safe to say no one expected the debut of a Golden Age DC Comics character: Sargon the Sorcerer (Raúl Herrera). Part 5 of Crisis took place on DC’s Legends of Tomorrow and, in keeping with the Arrowverse’s weirdest and most exuberant show, the climactic chapter packed in some zany moments even as the superheroes waged their final battle against the Anti-Monitor (LaMonica Garrett) to save the rebirthed Multiverse....

Tom Welling is back as Superman for this year’s Arrowverse crossover, Crisis on Infinite Earths, which means fans can finally get the Smallville ending they’ve always wanted. In the Smallville series finale, Clark Kent finally learned how to fly and succeeded in fulfilling his destiny in becoming Superman. The episode provided a brief glimpse at Smallville’s Clark in costume as Superman for the first time ever - but with CGI. It was supposed to be the moment that fans had waited ten seasons for, but for a great many, it failed to live up to expectations....

Vivica A. Fox is no stranger to battling aliens (after having appeared in both Independence Day movies), but the trailer for her upcoming VOD release Crossbreed pits her against an altogether different extraterrestrial threat. While the film has shades of John Carpenter’s cult classic Escape from New York, it also resembles the Luc Besson-produced 2012 thriller Lockout, which takes the premise for Carpenter’s movie and sets it aboard a futuristic space station....

Cyberpunk 2077 is one of the most anticipated games of this generation, and we learned quite a bit about CD Projekt Red’s new title at E3 2019. Originally announced in summer 2012, Cyberpunk 2077 didn’t receive the attention necessary until after The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt released in 2015. Ever since then, CD Projekt Red has been working hard, and without the need for crunch times, in order to deliver a groundbreaking video game that could set a new standard for the industry as a whole....

In 2007, The Big Bang Theory, the brainchild of Chuck Lorre and Bill Prady, started airing on CBS and poked fun at nerd life as we know it. Viewers met the upright, Star Trek-loving Sheldon Cooper and the wannabe ladies’ man Leonard Hofstadter, who lived together across the hall from the charming Penny. Slowly, their worlds began to collide, and all their friends from Raj to Howard to Bernadette grew up into fine adults....

It has been nearly 25 years since Babylon 5 first aired and the series still boasts a devout fandom unlike any other. This seems appropriate, however, as Babylon 5 itself has defied convention since it first aired on the fledgling Prime Time Entertainment Network on February 22, 1993. Set in the not-too-distant future of 2258, the series focused upon the titular space-station and the crew of soldiers and diplomats who oversaw its management....

We previously profiled and reviewed the LunaTik iPod nano watch strap, a nano accessory crafted with incredible detail, precision, and high-grade materials. The LunaTik iPod nano accessory became a smash hit last year, raising millions of dollars on the Kickstarter funding service. The company came back with a second product earlier this year – a stylus called the TouchPen – and now the firm is back with another Apple device accessory....

For the fourth time in his career, Daniel Bryan has become the WWE Champion, and will now battle Universal Champion Brock Lesnar at Survivor Series. Bryan was riding high atop the WWE in 2014, after beating Triple H, Dave Bautista, and Randy Orton in the same night to leave WrestleMania XXX with his third WWE Championship. Unfortunately, a neck injury would force him to give up his title soon after. Bryan would return in early 2015, win the Intercontinental Championship at WrestleMania XXI, then have to relinquish it and leave due to another injury....
