  • Twitch was a bizarre place to be this weekend, as some of the platform’s most popular personalities contended with Jake Paul and Logan Paul disrupting the ecosystem. Summit1G is one of the most watched Twitch streamers who, like many other casters, is trying to get in on the Fortnite action. Summit1G’s decision to “duo” with Paul, however, left viewers and subscribers complaining in Summit1G’s Twitch chat, and on Reddit and Twitter. Twitch chat is a big part of Twitch culture. Search “Twitch nor

As Captain America steps off a ship to greet Black Panther and the Wakandan people, followed by Black Widow, he sees his ol’ pal, Bucky. That’s why Stony exists (Steve Rogers and Tony Stark) and, of course, Steggy (Steve Rogers and Peggy Carter). Of all the ships — excluding the canonical Steggy — Stucky has always been the most plausible

  • Westworld’s showrunners want to beat Reddit at their own game, saying they may spoil the entire second season before it premieres later this month — if they get enough upvotes. Showrunners Jonathan Nolan and Lisa Joy took part in a Reddit AMA earlier today, and dropped a bit of a bombshell on unsuspecting participants and lurkers. “If you guys agree, we’re going to post a video that lays out the plot (and twists and turns) of season 2. They argue that the problem with Reddit theories — and getti

The revelatory moment occurs toward the end of the trailer, when Han and Chewie are flying the Millennium Falcon. “You look great!”Based on the new information, it isn’t too difficult to guess Chewbacca’s age in Star Wars: Episode IV — A New Hope, the first time he appeared.

  • A good Vine compilation on YouTube is a thing of beauty, but it’s easy to miss how much work goes into the great ones. The best compilations put each Vine into some new light, or flavors how we experience each six-second clip, through the added context of the Vine that came before and the Vine that came after.

  • Joëlle Jones will write and draw a new ongoing Catwoman series from DC Comics, the publisher announced at this weekend’s Chicago Comics and Entertainment Expo. Jones has been nominated for multiple Eisner awards for drawing and co-writing Lady Killer, a 1960s-set comic series about a housewife who moonlights as an assassin. That series’ comparison to Catwoman — who’s about to become Bruce Wayne’s wife while she moonlights as Robin Hood-style reformed criminal — is not too far off. But what reall

  • If you needed to be reminded that this movie is about Han Solo — yes, that Han Solo — holy gosh, you will be absolutely reminded. Remember how much Han Solo likes blasters and trusts them? This is where Han Solo found that out! All of these images come from other places within the canon, which makes the vast universe of Star Wars look and feel impossibly small. Han Solo is also in no danger here, because we already know how and when he dies.
