Ainur like Sauron could shapeshift inThe Lord of the Rings, but Sauron lost this ability from multiple angles. Ainur were the first-created species ofLord of the Rings’One god, Eru Ilúvatar.

Because the story ofAndorseason 2 is going to lead directly into the events ofRogue One: A Star Wars Story, the movie that leads directly intoA New Hope, it’s expected that there will be plenty of connections between all these stories....

Since their debut in 2014’s eponymous Phase 2 movie, theGuardians of the Galaxy teamhas been one of my favorite MCU properties. I loved seeing the team change and grow over the duration of the James Gunn-directed trilogy and Holiday Special, but, now, I’m nervous we might not see the Guardians of the Galaxy again....

EveryTeenage Mutant Ninja Turtlesfan recognizes Shredder as the series' long-standing “big bad” and a powerful foe of the turtles, but the original comics tell a different story about the iconic villain.
