Time is a flat circle, as Matthew McConaughey’s Rust informed us with that distinctive drawl, which means we’ll see the same stuff coming around to happen again and again. And that’s exactly how it was on HBO’s brilliant True Detective, whose first season had barely concluded before the internet began doing what it always does, and spat out rumour after rumour …

I don’t know about you guys, but I kinda dig the idea of Disney’s upcoming channel movie, Descendants. The idea that several Disney villains never died at the end of their films is always welcome, but the fact that they got bizzay and conceived a few kids during their exile is most likely going to send the fanfic side of the Internet …

I still can’t believe how quickly the idea of Gotham has taken to go from the concept stage through to a fully realised 13 episode series that debuts soon.

And somehow still not as ridiculous as the prospect of James Franco and Seth Rogen serving as CIA assassins on a mission to take out the “Glorious Leader”, which is exactly …

Despite their track record standing as past evidence to the contrary, I’d like to give Warner Bros’/DC Comics the benefit of the doubt and assume that they – like their biggest rival, Marvel Studios – actually have a gameplan. Based on how the not quite as successful Man of Steel‘s sequel suddenly morphed into a Batman/Superman movie, and then finally became …
