Get Out earned a massive $250 million on a four-and-a-half million dollar budget and garnered multiple awards and no...

The Marvel Cinematic Universe spent 18 films building to an epic showdown with Thanos, the Mad Titan.

In 2007, one movie brought together Scarecrow, Captain America, Captain Phillipa Georgiou, Moira MacTaggart, Wong, the dad from Fear the Walking Dead, and Sinestro.

But just over a decade later, the legacy of t...

There was an idea… to bring together a group of Marvel's B-List superheroes to see if they could become something more than just a bunch of characters we still had the rights to. To see if they could work together when we needed them to fight the box office battles that the X-Men, Spider-Man, and the Fantastic Four never could. To see if a throwaway gag in a post-credits scene could actually becom...

In a rare turn of events, Legends Podcast tackles a television show. We're talking about the science-fiction-gone-horribly-wrong anthology series from the twisted mind of Charlie Booker.
