2. Sonic the Hedgehog Had the Best Domestic Opening of Any Video Game Movie Ever | io9

"As reported by Deadline, Sonic the Hedgehog opened this week at approximately $68 million dollars in the United States, making it the highest-grossing video game movie ever released, edging out Detective Pikachu, which opened at $54.3 million. Internationally, Detective Pikachu and, surprisingly, Warcraft did a little better, but it’s still coming in at around $100 million.

6. MICHAEL PEÑA Doesn't Know What's Gonna Happen in ANT-MAN 3 | Newsarama

“I have no idea [if Luis disappeared or not]. Ant-Man 3 is not going to be shot for another year or so,” Peña told The Hollywood Reporter, referring to whether Luis was 'Snapped' by Thanos and then 'Blipped' by the Hulk or not. “After my involvement in the first two Ant-Man movies, we really won’t even know what’s going to happen until one-to-two months before we film. Right now, Marvel is in a really cool position where they can break hearts by who they bring back and who they don’t. But, I’m still interested even though I have no idea what’s gonna happen, and I can’t wait to find out.”

The Internet Melts When Baby Yoda Meets George Lucas

Find out why the internet is melting over Baby Yoda meeting George Lucas. The breakout star of the Disney+ show The Mandalorian is the little guy nicknamed Baby Yoda. Back in the 1970s writer-director, George Lucas created the first Star Wars movie. In 1980 he produced Empire Strikes Back and introduced Jedi master Yoda. In 2019 The Mandalorian introduced a 50-year old baby alien that looks a lot like Yoda. Fans saw the big eyes, floppy ears, and overgrown cloak and immediately fell in love. He's only named "The Child" on the show and apparently does have a real name but it's not being released. Back when Lucas was in charge he had a rule that no one could develop anything or offer any stories based on Yoda's species. He broke that rule a little during the prequels when he showed a female alien of Yoda's species named Yaddle. Since there's been nothing. After Disney bought the rights to Star Wars they made several changes to his vision. This is the bigge

It's hard to estimate but some LingoHut says there are160 distinct English dialects throughout the world. That's just English. How many accents are there in the 6,500 spoken languages? There are a ton of fictional alien languages too and the most notable is Klingon. An alien race that doesn't have a spoken language is Betazed. Betazoids are a telepathic civilization that can read minds, so they don't need a language. But some learned English and one very famous Betazoid is counselor Deanna Troi of the USS Enterprise-D . She's played by the British-Greek actress Marina Sirtis. During her run on Star Trek: The Next Generation she used a very unique and exotic-sounding accent. But no one else, in the history of Star Trek , has the same accent. For decades fans have been confused Why does Deanna Troi have an

Well, it's finally happened. The Netflix characters are finally back in the MCU. The streaming service canceled all the Marvel shows back in 2018 and 2019. But, reportedly, a clause in the contract said Marvel couldn't use the characters for two years after the Netflix shows were canceled. It's been exactly two years today that the last Marvel Netflix show Punisher which was canceled on February 18, 2019. So now Marvel can start developing plans for the characters. Now that Phase 4 is officially underway. Marvel Studios boss Kevin Feige told The Hollywood Reporter that "Everything is on the board." He added "That's one of the fun things about the comics is that characters would appear and disappear and come and go. All of it is the inspiration for the future. There are some great characters and actors from those shows." So it's not only possible that Daredevil and Luke Cage will show up soon, but that the actors will reprise their roles. Back in
