Although dressing up in costume for fan conventions has been around for more than 70 years, the general public doesn’t really understand the fan-favorite practice. “Cosplay Melee” aims to change that.
Syfy’s reality competition show, premiering Tuesday, March 21, aims to demystify cosplay, a portmanteau word comprised of “costume” and “play.” Sort of a “Project Runway” for geeks, the series shows the competitors in action, creating their costumes from scratch within a specified time limit.

Sometimes in life, you just win. The stars align, your hard work pays off, and suddenly you're face-to-face with a dream come true. That's how Robert Eggers seems to feel about his next project, a remake of Nosferatu. The Witch director took some time to chat with Indie Wire recently, where he gushed about how his next movie came together.
"[It’s shocking] to me,” Eggers told Iw. “It feels ugly and blasphemous and egomaniacal and disgusting for a filmmaker in my place to do ‘Nosferatu’ next. I was really planning on waiting a while, but that’s how fate shook out."
The Witch reportedly cost a mere $3 million to make, and ended up making $40.4 million worldwide while also notching a stellar 91% on Rotten Tomatoes- a rare feat for horror films. So when you have a film that sees that kind of success, great opportunities are bound to land on your lap.

As we trek ever closer to the season finale, we were treated to two episodes back to back, and neither story disappointed.
We can only hope the final episode lives up to the excitement I'm hoping for!
The first episode, Dark Matter Season 2 Episode 11, saw Five get kidnapped by backwoods hicks and then rescued by Three, while being chased by Ga Inspector Kierken. The second, Dark Matter Season 2 Episode 12, was all about Ryo.
I confess that writing a single review to cover both episodes will be difficult, since on the face of it they have very little to do with each other, but I will start with this: both were fun, entertaining, and filled with great character moments.
And there was indeed a common thread running through the two episodes, one that has been something of an undercurrent throughout the series: the relationship between memory and identity.

There are only three more episodes remaining in this season, and the tension definitely started to ramp up even more in Dark Matter Season 2 Episode 10 as a computer virus wreaked havoc on the Raza and her crew.
Zoie Palmer was the true star of this episode, and, boy oh boy, did she get a lot to do.
She played three distinct roles in this episode: The Android, The Android in the dream world, and The Hologram.
I truly enjoyed the initially subtle ways in which The Hologram attempted to undermine both the crew's confidence in The Android and The Android's confidence in herself and the crew.
I am of the opinion that the dream world itself was being manipulated by the Mikkei virus; note how dream-Victor kept trying to distance The Android from her human crew, encouraging her to abandon them and find real-Victor.

"I really like this," the 14-year-old said in the video, while putting the collar in place.
Stepdad Kroy Biermann, 30, is also in the video and is holding the collar's remote control.

It’s going to be a stylish summer, and GQ is all about helping gents look top-notch in the forthcoming July 2015 edition.
The popular periodical looks at the top 20 best-dressed dudes in the game, including Jeff Goldblum, Jay Z, Kanye West, Pharrell Williams, Ryan Gosling, Bradley Cooper, Jared Leto, LeBron James, Harry Styles, Cristiano Ronaldo, David Beckham and John Mayer.
Speaking of Mr. Mayer, he told the mag his former fashion choices came from his self-loathing. “You know, looking back on it, I think part of the idea was hiding out. Sometimes, if you don't see the person you recognize in the mirror, then you're free from your own punishment. It's almost like a witness relocation program for yourself. Sometimes in life you just don't want to be recognizable to yourself. A lot of people get f*cked up for that reason. I was drinking—I was drinking a whole hell of a lot.

Guardians of the Galaxy director James Gunn says he was pretty confident while shooting Guardians of the Galaxy, however, occasionally, he'd have a few sleepless nights. "I actually felt that [Guardians of the Galaxy] was something that people needed, they just didn't know it yet. They needed the humor, they needed the fun. So, I felt confident, but there were those nights at 3Am where I would wake up and be like, 'Oh my God, what am I doing. If this goes wrong, my life is screwed. I'll be a pariah'". Pratt chimed in, "Every rule said, 'You don't make a movie with a talking tree,' 'You don't spend this much money on a raccoon with a gun.' For me, I was like, 'Oh, so this movie is going to bomb. Done. This is the end of my career." Sometimes in life, it pays to roll the dice. Guardians of the Galaxy...

Sometimes in life you come across people who confuse your emotions. It’s like, you want to hate them, but you just can’t. Or conversely, you know objectively that you really should like someone, but they somehow rub you the wrong way. Or maybe it’s a weird combination of the two. This goes double for television characters, the people that we as audience members develop a weird sort of relationship with over the years.
Film is all about story, but television relies almost entirely on the strength of its characters. Where else can you develop either an intense love or a virulent hatred of a character with only one hour a week? Depending on the actor and the writing, quirky character traits can be either grating or endearing. But there are some television figures the the jury’s still out on. These are those happy few.

Look back at your childhood and how you imagined yourself as an adult, did you come even close to that expectation in reality? Sometimes in life we place our bar of expectation too high and thanks to the help of the economy, lack of the proper skills or our own bad choices in life those goals are impossible to meet.
Dream Home is all about one woman’s childhood goal of owning her dream home in a time when housing prices in Hong Kong are astronomical, the daily struggles she has to endure and the morbid measures she is willing to go to, to make her dream come true. If you like the typical blood, sex, occasional drug use with a humorous undertone at times in your slasher films, then this one is definitely for you.

Source: FameFlynet Miley Cyrus was greeted by a legion of British fans as she left the BBC Radio 1 Studios in London on Tuesday. The fur-clad star was all smiles as she waved to the crowd and posed for photos with her supporters. During her morning appearance on the radio show, Miley sang a cover of Lana Del Rey's hit "Summertime Sadness" - you can listen to the impressive rendition here. Source: Getty Miley touched down in the UK after spending the weekend in Amsterdam for the MTV Europe Music Awards, where she caused quite the stir. Though her performances of "We Can't Stop" and "Wrecking Ball" were pretty tame in comparison to her August VMAs set, it was Miley's onstage marijuana moment that got the most attention during the ceremony. While accepting her award for best video, Miley told the crowd, "I couldn't fit this award in my bag,...

She’s grown accustomed to receiving flak for her MTV performances, and Miley Cyrus wasn’t too worried about the naysayers following her appearance on the 2013 MTV European Music Awards.
The “Can’t Be Tamed” dame smoke what looked to be a joint as she accepted the Best Video trophy, taking advantage of Amsterdam’s lenient views on marijuana.
And after everything was said and done, Miley simply tweeted, "Sometimes in life you just gotta decide to not give Af."
During her acceptance speech, Cyrus blurted out, "I don't think I'm going to be able to fit that in my purse so I'll put it right here for now. I couldn't fit this award in my bag but I did find this.”...

It doesn't look like Miley Cyrus is paying any mind to the criticism after her MTV Ema appearance. "Sometimes in life you just gotta decide to not give Af," she said on Twitter, presumably in response to all the attention following her controversial acceptance speech.

Sometimes in life good and bad things come in threes. Luckily for us this week, WWE has been on the good side of things with programming and the trend continued into the Main Event and Nxt. Let’s begin with the Main Event from my old stomping ground of Dayton, Ohio and the Nutter Center.
