Today is, of course, April 1st and you know what that means… tomfoolery is abound. Warner Bros. got in on the action by releasing the first “teaser” for Aquaman 2. The short tease ultimately turns in to a great little advert for Shazam! and we can’t help but applaud Warner Bros. for doing it! https://youtu.be/9NegtY4febI We all have a superhero inside us, it just takes a bit of magic to bring it out. In Billy Batson’s (Angel) case, by shouting out one word—SHAZAM!—this streetwise 14-year-old foster kid can turn into the adult Super Hero Shazam (Levi), courtesy of an ancient…

Star Trek: Discovery airs on CBS All Access on Thursday’s in North America and Netflix internationally on Friday’s. Synopsis Burnham receives the reunion she’s been longing for, but it doesn’t go quite as she imagined. Georgiou and Tyler sense a disturbing change in Leland. Review This is yet another episode of Star Trek: Discovery that I thoroughly enjoyed but also found a little frustrating. I feel as though as season 2 has progressed the series writing has leant in towards its emotional elements and has struggled with its science fiction elements somewhat. Case in point: with the death of Ariam…
