The Beta Report

Never mind the clickbait title, I think there is some truth to this. In one corner, there is a family of heroes that waited 14 years to release a sequel. In the other, we have a team of heroes who became a family, that spent 10 years doing nothing but releasing sequels. And, though we've grown up with both groups, there is a certain fondness for The Incredibles that is nestled deep in my Pixar lov...

Check out this week's episode to see if The Rock takes the crown or if someone else currently sits on the throne....

Arnold schwarzenegger, Tom Cruise, Will Smith...these titans ruled over all other actors for years at the box office.

But, as Marvel and the rise of comic book movies have sort of monopolized over the box...
