It’s Comic-Con weekend, so there would be plenty of new reveals taking place, even after the ELO gets posted. However, if you’re not lucky enough to attend, perhaps you can venture to the cinemas to catch the latest Star Trek Beyond. Reviews have been kind so far and you can catch Sofia Boutella in the flick! Not that you would recognize her under all that make up in the movie though…

Oh how the mighty has fallen. The Divergent series has gone on an epic collapse (in both quality and box office intake); hence Lionsgate has decided to shift the final film of the franchise into a TV movie followed by a TV series spinoff instead of the plum summer theatrical release. No word on whether the current cast would be returning. The bigger question is, if people weren’t interested in the film franchise, what makes the studio think people would tune into the TV series?
