While it seems that there were some plans to include links to the MCU in Moon Knight, including members of the Eternal team for starters, it appears that the setting of the finale also underwent a change compared to the original idea for the showdown between Moon Knight and Arthur Harrow....

With Prey about to make its debut on Hulu, Trachtenberg has taken the Predator back to its animalistic roots. The original Arnold Schwarzenegger movie introduced the fearsome alien to audiences, the Danny Glover-led sequel, which switched the setting to the city, followed in 1990, and then over a decade later two movies that crossed the franchise over with the Alien movies arrived as a watered-down contribution to the series that didn’t fare well with audiences or critics....

Fan Fiction has turned into rumor fodder for the movie masses, and while its sometimes fun, it’s hardly ever accurate.

When it comes to actors who can switch from drama to comedy and comedy to drama, the name Adam Sandler is popping up more and more. His style is so insatiable, and classic; he’s becoming one of Americas greatest actors - and, in my opinion, that’s 100% true. In his newest film, Reign Over Me, Adam portrays a man whose family was killed on one of the planes that hit the World Trade Center on September 11, 2001....
