Avatar: The Last Airbender was an extremely popular series and one that created dozens upon dozens of fan theories. So many that we can actually make a list talking about individual characters. For example, Toph was introduced later in the series (relatively speaking), yet she had several fan theories focused on her and her alone. The crazier part is how many fan theories about her actually ended up being true. Here are ten theories about Toph that were later proven to be completely spot on....

Avatar 2’s marketing is now hilariously mocking fan criticisms with memes. The original Avatar was of course a massive hit when it came out in 2009, grossing a then-record $2.79 billion at the worldwide box office (a total that was surpassed just this year by Avengers: Endgame with $2.796 billion). But despite the film’s huge popularity when it came out, Avatar now finds itself an object of mockery more often than respect....

Some men aren’t looking for anything logical. Some men just want to watch the world burn. While this may have been Joker’s goal and mindset at one point, his first interaction with Batman must have altered that perception. While the desire for chaos to fuel his twisted laughter remains, Joker found a foil in Batman. Someone to share in the joke. Thus began a relationship that rarely shifts course: Joker instigates a crime for laughs or does something to cause pain for Batman, and Batman retaliates, beating him and sending him to Arkham behind bars, only for Joker to break out and continue the running gag....

Along with growing Marvel, Star Wars and its own animated output, one of Disney’s biggest creative movements is the live-action remakes of their classic cartoons. Following the success of the likes of Cinderella and The Jungle Book, there are now several popular films scheduled for a live action upgrade. Many are direct adaptations, such as the planned remakes of Mulan and The Little Mermaid, while others are taking a more unique approach; the upcoming Cruella tells the story of the 101 Dalmatians villain in much the same way Maleficent did for the evil Sleeping Beauty enchantress....

It would’ve seemed unlikely that an Austrian bodybuilder would ever become one of the most popular stars in Hollywood, but Arnold Schwarzenegger is living proof that anything can happen. All throughout the ‘80s, “the Austrian Oak” was on top of the world, starring in the biggest action movies getting made. He took a break from acting to focus on a political career but now, he’s back with a vengeance to star in another Terminator movie for a returning James Cameron....

I had a lot of good and not so good times with XP. When it first came out I had horrendous driver issues and not to mention multiple Blue Screen’s of Death. Service Pack 1 addressed some of the issues, but there were still a lot of holes and vulnerabilities. Service Pack 2 did a good job of shoring things up at the time, however at that point I had already switched my browser to Firefox…I had actually switched to it before it even reached version 1....

Earlier today, YouTube’s foray into the streaming cable bundle market was officially unveiled earlier today, offering the “big four” networks and unlimited DVR at $35 per month.

During that ordeal, Le Maire continued to pressure Germany into legislating a tax, saying: Today, Austrian Chancellor Sebastian Kurz said the country will be following suit, and no longer wait for an EU-wide agreement. If we are incapable of re-establishing a fair tax system, of taxing the digital giants, we will pay for it at the ballot box....
