John Cena Endorses Playing Mark Zuckerberg in ‘The Social Network 2’

There are some movies that are never supposed to get sequels, but it remains entirely up for debate as to whether or not David Fincher’s The Social Network is one of them. While the biographical dramatic thriller unfolds during a very specific moment in history – which culminated in a stellar box office haul of $225 million and three Academy Award wins from eight nominations – writer Aaron Sorkin admitted that he’d be open to continuing the story under the right circumstances, albeit on the condition that Fincher also…

James Gunn Endorses ‘Vol. 3’ Taking Priority Over Life-Changing News

Image via Marvel Studios It’s easy to get caught up in the hype and hyperbole that surrounds every new film or television project emanating from the Marvel Cinematic Universe, but James Gunn’s Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 3 has literally seen people miss life-changing moments in favor of bidding farewell to the franchise’s favorite band of cosmic misfits.

Essential Politics: Energy Department endorses a once-fringe theory

WASHINGTON —  In late January 2020, I was sitting by a fire in a pub in London and reading the Daily Mail to distract myself from a dry cough that would not go away.
