Twentieth Century Fox’s mutant movie universe has been around since Bryan Singer’s X-Men hit theaters in 2000. Over the past 17 years, Singer’s film launched a trilogy that was followed up by a spinoff starring Hugh Jackman’s Wolverine, then a prequel series kicked off in X-Men: First Class. Last year, Fox ventured into new territory with Deadpool - an R-rated comedy starring Ryan Reynolds as Wade Wilson. It was incredibly well received by critics and fans alike and became the top grossing X-Men film ever....

Now that the X-Men franchise is branching out, trying new things, and getting involved in television, much has been made about the continuity of this shared universe. At first, the X-Men movie franchise seemed to throw caution to the wind when it came to maintaining a cohesive continuity between their films, but that was before the franchise “reset” everything - using the events of X-Men: Days of Future Past to help make sense of the timelines....

Spending years floundering in development hell, the solo Deadpool film hit theaters at long last and it’s become a winner for 20th Century Fox. Critical reception is overwhelmingly positive (read our review), praising the movie’s sense of humor and fun. In addition, Deadpool is already setting the international box office ablaze, outperforming X-Men: Days of Future Past in some markets. It’s no surprise that the studio is already moving forward on the sequel....

Warning: SPOILERS for Deadpool: The End #1 There is no fictional world or villain safe from Deadpool, and the un-killable assassin has proven it in the least likely way. This time, it’s taking readers on a journey into his own future… becoming Marvel’s own version of The Batman Who Laughs – and drowning the rest of the Avengers in DC drama. Some explanation will be needed since, even for Wade Wilson, this new crossover between Marvel and DC is a layered inside joke....

We will conclude with a solid recommendation for which path you should take. A little about the role Penetration testing is a type of ethical hacking that tries to break into or find exploitable vulnerabilities in an organization’s network, computers and systems....

With the Season of Dawn coming to Destiny 2: Shadowkeep, there a lot of changes Guardians will experience, including three new Ritual Weapons. While the weapons don’t seem to be meta defining, they come completely masterworked and have some interesting and unique perks that can be useful in PvE. The Komodo-4FR Linear Fusion Rifle comes equipped with several basic but solid perks that are useful in any situation, the Python Shotgun is the first shotgun in Destiny 2 to have the Overflow perk, and the Buzzard Sidearm showcases a brand new, versatile perk that can be useful in the most difficult activities in the game....

WARNING: Major spoilers for Days Gone. Days Gone’s story is quite thrilling, but its ending twist ruins all the character development that Deacon St. John built up. It’s a long path to redemption for Deacon (with six hours of cutscenes), set in the backdrop of the “zombie” apocalypse. Smartly, the setting of Deacon’s story provides the opportunity for rich character moments and difficult moralistic choices. But Sony Bend takes the easy way, opting to never force Deacon to truly grapple with the mistakes that he’s made....

DC Comics defeated Marvel Comics in March, claiming a higher market share and seven spots in the Direct Market Top 10, including the number-one spot. DC owned the first six positions in the top 10, with Detective Comics #1000 first, and the next five in order being The Batman Who Laughs: Grim Knight, Doomsday Clock #9, Batman #67 and 66, and Heroes in Crisis. Marvel did not appear in the top 10 until number 7, with Amazing Spider-Man #7, followed by Amazing Spider-Man #8, then Spider-Man: City at War at number 9....

Beginning with Zack Snyder’s Man of Steel in 2013, Warner Bros. and DC have been trying– and largely failing– to establish a cinematic universe that can sustain itself for over a decade, just like Marvel Studios has since 2008. The DCEU is littered with problems, but one of the main ones may have been looking too far ahead instead of dealing with the project in front of them. While Man of Steel was good and Batman v....

Titans season 2 finally saw the official introduction of Bruce Wayne to the titular group’s world, but there are actually signs that things might not be what they seem and that Bruce Wayne might not be Bruce Wayne at all. The character of Batman loomed over Titans season 1 as little more than a specter, driving a lot of Dick Grayson’s motivations and informing the majority of his decisions. As Dick sought to forge his own identity out from beneath his former mentor’s considerable shadow, things came to a head in season 1’s makeshift finale....

Stuntman-turned-director David Leitch was originally hired to develop X-Force, but ended up directing Deadpool 2 and turning into into a launching pad for the X-Force franchise instead. Leitch has had a good few years - first making his directorial debut with the jaw-dropping action film John Wick, and then following it up with the cool and stylish spy thriller Atomic Blonde. Now he has successfully broken into the superhero franchise game, with Deadpool 2 grossing more than $500 million worldwide after just a couple of weeks at the box office....

DC Comics may be planning a movie version of The Highwaymen, a 2007 limited comic book series about a pair of hard bitten delivery men. DC in recent days has dominated headlines as a whole slew of new projects have come to light and/or received updates. Among the many announcements, none received more buzz than news that Steven Spielberg will produce, and possibly direct, a film version of the World War II-set comic book Blackhawk....

It’s a good day to be a fan of DC Comics’ universe-restarting Flashpoint event, because as challenging an enemy as Reverse-Flash turned out to be, it was an alternate universe hero Barry Allen was fighting for the series spotlight. Of course, that’s to be expected when you’re sharing cover space with an even darker and grimmer take on Batman (few would have thought that possible). And with the Flashpoint Batman’s existence being alluded to at the very start of DC’s “Rebirth,” fans had reason to hope the character could make some kind of appearance....

Deadpool 2 has reached a global box office milestone by cracking the list of the top 3 highest-grossing R-rated films. Starring Ryan Reynolds in his second solo outing as the irreverent Marvel superhero, Deadpool 2 was released in May with a mountain of expectations in front of it. Mainly, the film had to find a way to top the original with just as entertaining a story line, but just as daunting, it had task of trying to equal if not top the massive box office haul of the 2016 film....

A design student whose work was praised by Apple as the company turned him down for an internship decided to take the feedback to heart. When Apple told Northwestern Uni student Jason Yuan they wanted to see more growth and training, he decided to work on this by redesigning the iOS Apple Music app. The project began with qualitative research – talking to users in depth about their approach to music and their experience of the app – and led to what proved to be a key insight …...

Here’s Trey Parker’s Despicable Me 3 villain Balthazar Bratt explained. The Despicable Me franchise began with the 2010 original, which followed Steve Carrell’s supervillain Felonious Gru, who comes to realize there’s more to life than evil schemes. The true breakout stars of the movie were Gru’s minions, which are small yellow creatures who speak in a language mostly comprised of gibberish. They soon became the franchise mascots, and of course, returned for both Despicable Me 2 and 3....

Warning: The following contains SPOILERS for Titans’ season 2 finale, “Nightwing.” With DC Universe’s Titans season 2 now over, it is fair to say that the show has completely mismanaged the greatest villains from the classic Teen Titans comics. This leaves the show in an uncertain state heading into season 3, though there is a possibility that some of these beloved bad guys may return for more in the future....
