“I would do any movie with Ryan Coogler again, hell, even for free!” That’s the impact Ryan Coogler has on his cast and crew members while he goes on to create memorable films, thus fueling the rise of black cinema.

It won’t be an understatement to say that Daredevil as a character has cemented his position among the massive Marvel fandom. Since Netflix also released a full-fledged TV show around Daredevil back in 2015, this character has only soared to new heights in terms of popularity and relevance in the superhero genre.

The industry in the spotlight is the mobile-game industry which works on a free-to-play (F2P) business model. But wait.

These games are everything but “free.” Under the hood, it’s just the freemium business model that is after your wallet, but the adrenaline…

If we take you back to the 90s, the Simpsons was a pop-culture phenomenon as it was one of the most popular shows to be aired on TV. And to this date, Simpsons has held that significance alive. On the other hand, Kevin Costner took to the producer’s chair and gave the world Waterworld. The film was costly, but the audience didn’t care about it that much, and the film tanked at the box office. The writers at The Simpsons saw this opportunity and made a joke about this. Years later, a die-hard fan of the TV show developed that…
