It’s no secret that the comic book world is filled with fantastical, yet bizarre characters– heroes and villains alike– and as with any other art or literary medium, those characters’ creators often draw inspiration from the real world. Sometimes that inspiration can be other comic book characters, or characters in books, but surprisingly often it is real-life singers, actors, and entrepreneurs. In fact, some of the most iconic superheroes and villains in history have been inspired by real people, and their creators have openly admitted to it....

Many celebrities and offline superstars have worked with a talent agency for years. It should be no surprise that the online superstars now also look to talent agencies to help them work towards their goals.

When it comes to television shows or movies, the soundtrack can make or break how a person views the production. The acting, camerawork, and editing are all equally important, but without good music playing over the background, even the best scenes can fall flat. This is not just for the music scores, but also the soundtracks with the best pop, rock, country, or classical songs playing against the scenes. Whether used to contrast the scene or enhance it, the shows with great soundtracks remain memorable years after the final episode of a series airs....

Will we see the X-Men and the Fantastic Four make an appearance?...

Luke Cage (2016) is the third Marvel television show to debut on Netflix, following Daredevil (2015) and Jessica Jones (2015). While a second season of Luke Cage has not yet been announced, the show’s creative approach to the superhero genre has generated a lot of attention. The character is already slated to appear in The Defenders (2017) alongside Matthew Murdock, Jessica Jones, and Iron Fist (who will premiere in Iron Fist earlier in 2017)....

Although siblings Joaquin, River, and Liberty Phoenix were acting as early as 1982 and appeared in several movies and TV shows over the next few years, the world was first properly introduced to the talented family when River starred in the iconic 1986 coming-of-age film Stand By Me. He quickly established himself as one of the hottest “next big thing” actors around, earning an Oscar nomination for 1988’s Running on Empty and playing young Indy in Indiana Jones and the Last Crusade....

I’ve been calling on Apple to bring back the 17-inch MacBook Pro for many years now. Sometimes there’s just no substitute for physical screen size when it comes to things like photo and video editing, and even in more mundane use, you can get a significant productivity boost from having multiple windows visible at the same time. I’ve suggested before that 14- and 16-inch machines might be the sweet-spot, and noted Apple analyst Ming-Chi Kuo yesterday suggested that the larger of the two may well be on the way …...

We all know that searching high and low for that perfect Christmas present is tough. Randall Peltzer thinks he found a great gift for his son Billy. It’s a cute and furry Mogwai. The old peddler selling it gives Randall explicit instructions on how to care for the pet. Don’t expose it to sunlight or bright lights. Don’t get it wet, and never, ever feed it after midnight. Gremlins wouldn’t have been much of a movie had Billy followed all of the rules instead of he and his friends inadvertently breaking each and every one of them....

The 25th Annual Screen Actors Guild Awards celebrated some of the most acclaimed films of 2018.

We’ve had a couple of reports today, each from solid sources, suggesting that we’ll see significant changes when the 2021 MacBook Pro models appear. The two reports agree on most things, though there are some differences between them. Notably, Ming-Chi Kuo indicates that removal of the Touch Bar is a done deal, while Bloomberg’s Mark Gurman thinks it is merely being considered at this stage … Let’s summarise what the reports say....

You may know Blake Lively as the actress from the critically acclaimed film The Shallows, or due to her marriage to Ryan Reynolds, but she really got noticed due to her in Gossip Girl. The show ran for six seasons from 2007 to 2012, where it focused on the young people born into the rich and elite.

First airing in the fall of 2012 on The CW, Arrow quickly became a phenomena and made the character of Green Arrow more popular in the mainstream than he had ever been before.

This is the black-box approach to security testing, the methodology that people frequently request. Unfortunately, they’re usually unaware of its many drawbacks. In black-box, you don’t tell your security evaluators anything about how the system works. The goal of the methodology is to limit information in an attempt to replicate real-world conditions, but it is flawed. Download Ted’s free ebook, “How to secure your software faster and better.” A few weeks later, the king is murdered....
