The YES! chant master is no more, as Daniel Bryan has announced that his legendary career in a WWE ring is effectively over.
The announcement of the Academy Awards nominations is never without some surprises. Movies and actors that you thought were shoe-ins might have been snubbed, while other nominations might have come out of left field.

Fortunately though, after a string of box office and critical bombs, the getting-slightly-stale Prince of Bel Air righted the ship considerably with slick con-man drama Focus. Now Smith …
Believe it or not, but sports such as American football are rather dangerous. After all, when you have a field of two dozen men who weigh about as much as VW Beetle on steroids, decked in armour and regularly causing flesh collisions every time they play a game, somebody is bound to get hurt. And by hurt, I mean suffer …

A spooky European village. Properly scary castle mania. Vampires. Werewolves!
