The Cast Of 'Back To The Future' Reunited And Great Scott, It Was Perfect

By Tanya
All of us have thought about time travel at one point or another. Whether it was thinking about where you'd like to go, or how fun it would be, it's definitely crossed each of our minds. A lot of our obsession with time travel is no doubt caused by the popularity of Back to the Future, and how much fun it looks like it would be. Sure, Marty McFly ran into a few issues here and there, but it all worked out in the end! The movie (and its two sequels) made us believe that anything was possible as long

The 'Matilda Challenge' Is Purest Thing On The Internet You Didn't Know You Needed

By Tanya
I don't know about you, but every time I see these so-called "challenges" that teens are doing I get completely thrown off. Why are kids eating laundry detergent? Why are they jumping out of moving vehicles? I'm sure the older generation thought the same about the weird things we did, but at least we didn't have the internet so it wasn't like it spread all that far. But now there is finally one that we can all get behind. Not only is it impressive, but brings back a classic moment from one of the best movies ever. Introducing the "Matilda

John Travolta and Olivia Newton-John Reunite For The 40th Anniversary Of 'Grease'

By Tanya
Watching Grease as a kid was basically like seeing the epitome of idyllic high school situations. The coolest guy in school falls in love with a girl who teaches him how to be a better person, while teaching her how to loosen up. It really defined high school movies forever, and has remained a classic ever since. It's hard to believe that it has been 40 years since the movie came out, but here we are. When Grease came out in 1978, I don't know that anyone expected it to become the mega-hit that it did. John Travolta is still

Macaulay Culkin Turned Down "Hundreds Of Millions Of Dollars" To Be On 'Big Bang Theory'

By Meg
Even if you don't like the show, it's hard to deny that The Big Bang Theory has taken over television. If I hear one more person say "BAZINGA!" unironically, I might lose my mind. The show's stars have basically set themselves up for life with their contracts, each making $1 million per episode. It seems hard to believe that someone would turn down the opportunity to be a part of such a massive television hit, but Macaulay Culkin did just that. CBSIn the Home Alone actor's defense, though, he was offered the show before it even aired. That being said,

Debbie Gibson Opens Up About Being A Teen Star, And One Fan's "Dying Wish"

By Tanya
Debbie Gibson first came into our lives in the mid 80s with her song "Only In My Dreams." The singer/songwriter released the single in 1986, and was signed immediately. She recorded her first album in only four weeks, and managed to make her way onto the Top 40 charts. Gibson would later become the youngest artist to write, produce, and perform a Billboard number-one single, which she earned for her song "Foolish Beat." She was one of the biggest names in pop music in the 80s, and her bowler hats and rolled up jeans made her the style icon

The Original 'Transformers' Movie Is Coming Back To Theaters And We're Ready To Roll Out

By Tanya
How many times have you watched the classic 1986 Transformers movie? Probably a lot right? The classic story about our favorite robots in disguise is the only one that matters to a lot of us. Sorry Shia LaBeouf, but the only Optimus Prime we really want to see is the cartoon one. Okay, sure, a lot of people seem to love the live-action movies, otherwise why else would they be making a sixth one? But I think we can all admit that the cartoon is where true fans go when they want to watch some quality Transformers content. The movie

'Power Rangers' Are Coming Back (Again) Thanks To New Deal With Hasbro

By Tanya
When Power Rangers was rebooted last year, there were a lot of excited people and a lot of people who were, well, let's just call them 'less than excited.'People were ready for our 'Mighty Morphing Power Rangers' to come and save the day, but then again, we all tend to hate new spins on old classics. When the movie came out, it did well at first, but the hype kind of fell off as soon as all the other summer movies started coming out. Power Rangers would go on to make over $85 million domestically, and over $140 worldwide,

'Mighty Ducks' Star Arrested For Public Intoxication, But His Mugshot Has Everyone Speechless

By Tanya
Mighty Ducks was one of the 90s sports movies that seemed to be about so much more than the sport itself. Sure they were playing hockey, but really they were teaching us about ourselves in a big way. Shaun Weiss played Greg Goldberg in the movie, but even though the movie was a hit, that doesn't mean the rest of his life has been easy. Just this weekend, Weiss was arrested in Northern California. At 12:47 a.m., Weiss was brought in by police along with three other individuals after "behaving erratically with flashlights," which led the officers to

Jim Carrey Is Coming Back To TV And It's Exactly As Twisted As You Want It To Be

By Tanya
A lot of us know Jim Carrey from his iconic roles as Ace Ventura, Lloyd Christmas, and Stanley Ipkiss, but he actually got his start on the small screen. He had a few guest spots and small parts on TV shows, but he got his big break thanks to his work on the classic comedy series In Living Color. That's where we all became completely obsessed with the cartoon-like guy who could embody a character better than anyone in the world. He could make us laugh with the greatest of ease, and because of that he was able to get

There has been a lot of drama surrounding the Roseanne reboot over the last few months, thanks to the stars controversial actions. But now that the network has managed to buy her out of her contract, they've decided to move forward with the spinoff, The Conners, allowing the rest of the cast to continue on with their successful reboot.
