The Ice Is Right: Line Cut From 'Game Of Thrones' Premiere Spoils White Walker Attack
It was a case of "Ice to meet you" when Game of Thrones returned for a frosty reception and its Season 7 premiere. With the Lannisters and Greyjoys teasing an uneasy alliance, Jon Snow gathering his northern armies, and Queen Daenerys finally stepping foot on Westeros, there was plenty to keep us talking.

Magic Moments: Leaked 'Infinity War' Photos Show New Alliances And A Huge Character Resurrection
The gauntlets are off as the MCU prepares to celebrate its 10th anniversary with next year's Avengers: Infinity War. As the culmination of 22 films and the highest-grossing franchise in cinematic history, the next Avengers film promises to be the biggest superhero film ever to grace our screens.

'Who' Are You? Has 'Doctor Who' Already Cast A Familiar Name As The Next Companion?
Ushering in a new era of the BBC's popular show, Doctor Who dealt the world of sexism a much-needed blow by finally casting a woman as the 13th incarnation of the time-travelling hero. Since first gracing our screens in 1963 with William Hartnell, the Doctor has been stuck with the XY chromosome, but it now looks like we are getting a woman's touch.

Who Let The Hounds Out: 'Game Of Thrones' Theory Teases Major Storyline For The Hound
As HBO's Game of Thrones comes roaring back onto our screens, the next seven weeks are sure to be packed full of dragons, deaths, and enough theories to fill a library at the Citadel. As those still alive in Westeros become fewer in number, it is safe to assume that most of those still alive on the show must mean something to the #GameofThrones endgame.

Back To Black: Continuing The William Is The Man In Black Theory From Westworld!
Time to stick on that tin foil-fedora, because it is back down to #Westworld for your weekly head-scratcher of WTF (What — Teddy Flood?). While the internet STILL ponders multiple timeline theories, and true identities of the #ManInBlack, the case for it all being true is stronger than ever. I have already highlighted the theory on how mild-mannered William could be the infamous Man in Black here:

Grin And Bear It: 'Game Of Thrones' Premiere Cut R-Rated Brienne And Tormund Scene
Game of Thrones is back and it looks like things are heating up in the Seven Kingdoms. However, it isn't just flaming dragons that are smoking in the world of Westeros, the sexual tension between Brienne of Tarth and Tormund Giantsbane is a scorching mess of burning loins. Forget the Lannister romance or Jon meeting Dany, the possibility of "Brimund" is the only romance anyone is talking about — well, we would be if showrunners David Benioff and D.B. Weiss put them together.

Ca-She-No Royale: Chris Hemsworth Wants His 'Huntsman' Co-Star As A Female James Bond
Looking for a license to thrill? Well, how about a female James Bond? While the haters will undoubtedly be reaching for their Walther PPK to shoot down the idea before it takes root, we have only recently seen that even in fiction, nothing lasts for ever. With the BBC doing a gender-flip and casting Jodie Whittaker as the first ever female Doctor Who, surely it is only a matter of time before other franchises start to follow suit?

Deja View: The Doctor Strange Film We All Forget
While Marvel's #DoctorStrange is casting a spell over the box office, let's not forget the caped conjurer's humble beginnings. It may look like we are reigniting the Golden Age of comic books on our screen, as #JessicaJones, #LukeCage, and #IronFist fill up our #Netflix queue — and in many ways we are — but it was the late '70s that saw superheroes truly dominate our telly box.

A Case Of The Morn Horn: Will ‘Game Of Thrones’ Introduce Two Major Weapons From The Books?
Game of Thrones really is a story of ice and fire, and alongside abominable snowmen, Daenerys and her dragons are currently the biggest threat to the Seven Kingdoms. We have already seen how dragon fire can decimate a stronghold like Harrenhal, and even Dany's baby dragons have been causing trouble over the past seven seasons. However, with only an hour of TV every week and a reduced episode order for the final two seasons, #HBO's epic saga hasn't delved as deep into the dragon lore as we might have liked.

Squad Goals AF: 'Suicide Squad' Actor 'Pretty Sure' She Won't Be Back For The Sequel
Say what you want about David Ayer's Suicide Squad, but the DCEU's villainous vacation certainly had us all talking — just maybe for the wrong reasons. It may have been a commercial success, but Suicide Squad detonated a neck bomb in the review stakes everywhere. Something just didn't quite fit, while the ensemble cast of #MargotRobbie, #WillSmith, and #JaredLeto jarred against each other. Sure, there were highlights like Viola Davis as Amanda Waller, but let's be honest, #SuicideSquad isn't exactly the jewel in the #Batman crown of anyone's DVD collection.
