While growing up in Canada, Robin became a teenage music sensation by performing in malls across the country. Robin wore an ’80s outfit despite the fact that she toured in the ’90s, since Canada was said to be a decade behind in trends. Robin’s secret pop star past was first revealed in How I Met Your Mother season 2 with the episode “Slap Bet”....

DC Universe’s new Harley Quinn series features cameos by a large number of DC Comics characters. Many of these are Batman villains and allies, as befits the Gotham City setting, but the show’s trailers have revealed that the Clown Princess of Crime will be confronting heroes and villains from all corners of the DC Universe soon enough. The Harley Quinn series premiere, “Til Death Do Us Part”, sets the stage for the series at large and introduces the main players....

Wands! In the Potterverse, they are the necessary wizard or witch accessory. Or are they? Actually, a witch or wizard can, if they focus really hard and concentrate, do magic without a wand. But the wand comes in handy to speed up the process. It’s a convenience item, a way of channeling the maximum amount of magical energy. Zapping power, you might say. Before the movies came along, you had to imagine what the wands actually looked like....

Every house in Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry is well known for certain qualities that they value and aspire to above all else. Hufflepuff values kindness and hard work, Gryffindor values bravery and boldness, Slytherin values ambition and cunning, and Ravenclaw values wit and wisdom. So it’s no big surprise that Ravenclaw house has the reputation of being the smartest house in the world of Harry Potter. While the vast majority of Ravenclaw students are at least above average in their intelligence, being in Ravenclaw certainly isn’t a guarantee that someone is smart....

Over the years there have been many a franchise, and many a franchise based on books, that have left their mark on pop culture in a huge way. Two such franchises are that of The Lord Of The Rings, and Harry Potter. Of the sixteen films set between the two magic-infused universes, the majority of them have landed critical acclaim and adoration with fans for which both franchises have a huge amount of....

HBO takes a dramatic, in-depth look at disaster of Chernobyl in the first trailer for the upcoming miniseries event. The premium cabler is no stranger to dramatizing real-life events, but often times they come in smaller packages, like the one-two punch of Al Pacino-starring films with the creatively titled Paterno and Phil Spector, or, more recently, Brexit, which starred a bald cap-wearing Benedict Cumberbatch as the man who essentially sold voters on Britain leaving the European Union....

Hannibal Lecter is one of the most memorable characters of all time, and NBC’s 3-season series Hannibal was an exciting, fresh look at what life might have been like for Hannibal before he was behind bars. The operatic arcs that Hannibal’s friends, clients, and meals went through on the series really showed what they were made of. Although cannibalism is also frowned on in the wizarding world, Hannibal characters can still be sorted into their Hogwarts houses....

While it’s too big to miss entirely, there are a fair few details, secrets and nuances that may have passed you by in the grand scheme of things....

Sirius Black and Molly Weasley are two very important characters in the life of Harry Potter. Sirius is his godfather and his father’s best friend, although he sadly misses out on a chance to get to know him until later in life due to his wrongful imprisonment in Azkaban. While Molly is Harry’s surrogate mother that immediately embraces him and takes care of him in ways that Petunia Dursley never did....

After an excellent first season, why was Heroes season 2 such a monumental disappointment? Premiering on NBC in September 2006, Heroes originated from the mind of Tim Kring and took the world by storm with its grounded depiction of ordinary people who suddenly develop superpowers. Playing out across 23 tightly-written episodes, the interweaving arcs of Heroes’ flawed, yet relatable, ensemble formed a neat tapestry, mixing classic comic book heroes and villains tropes with the real-world issues of drug addiction, high school drama and breaking away from the mold of an invisible everyman to become something truly special....

Social media allows you to reach, nurture, and engage. You can easily access it via computer, tablet, or smartphone, but your presence on the internet gives others to interfere in your personal life.

You need to take some precautions if you didn’t want to share your personal information....

For the witches and wizards that live in the world of the Harry Potter series, it’s safe to say that the sky is the limit. With magic at your fingertips it would seem that anyone could make even their wildest dreams come true. However, just like in the world of muggles, there are certain occupations in the wizarding world that are treated with more respect and reverence than others, and there are few jobs in that world that are more renowned than that of an auror....

The Harry Potter movies are brilliant, don’t get us wrong, but they don’t always stay true to the source material that is J.K. Rowling’s amazing books. As a result, Warner Bros. had many decisions to make about what to include and what to omit — meaning not everything can be crammed into a single two-hour blockbuster. So we’re now going to wind the clock back and take a look at the Chamber of Secrets movie....

In the finale, Lady Trieu attempted and failed to absorb Dr. Manhattan’s powers, thanks to Will Reeves and Adrian Veidt....

Wardrobe and costuming is typically one of the most often ignored aspect of filmmaking and media that exists. For some reason people tend to think that the costumes are clothes and nothing more. But the wardrobe department is filled with dedicated and skilled professionals who pour hours of work into each and every choice. Every pattern, every colour, and every accessory is chosen for a reason. Whether they connect characters to one another or hint at their backstory, these choices are made deliberately....
