Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2 players are voicing their love for Call of Duty: Vanguard now. Call of Duty: Vanguard was hardly a successful Call of Duty.

Jimmy Fallon managed to work the #RIPJImmyFallon trend into his monologue last night. Addressing that Twitter death hoax was always going to have to happen on his show. When he asked Elon Musk for help this week, the billionaire only had jokes for him.

What if Iron Man was a box office bomb? What if 20th Century Fox bought the film rights to more Marvel heroes? What if Tobey Maguire’s Spider-Man 4 was never cancelled? While comic book movie fans are enjoying the golden age of superhero projects right now, there are plenty of branch timelines out in the multiverse that would have drastically reshaped the landscape of Hollywood’s capes and tights. One of the closest what if’s comes in the form of the aforementioned Spider-Man 4, which was developed by director Sam Raimi for over a year before ultimately being scrapped....

French fries, despite their name, have long been a staple of the American diet. It’s said that Thomas Jefferson offered “potatoes served in the French manner” at at White House dinner as early as 1802. Since that time, french fries have appeared on menus throughout the country in nearly every genre of eating establishment – from fast-food joints to gourmet restaurants.

Years after the release of the massive crossover film, people are still upset about Scarlett Johansson’s character falling off that cliff in Vormir. Clearly, the directors haven’t forgotten.

In the response video, the Endgame director perfectly employed “White Flag” by Dido and mimed playing a song on the tiniest violin just for them....

Several downtowns are referenced by many as “Main Street,” while some actually carry the name. There are many quaint Main Streets in Oklahoma where streets are lined with trees, locals gather to dine and tourists come for the shopping....
