IT Chapter Two is the next major release on the 2019 release calendar, but how much did it cost to make? In 2017, the new adaptation of Stephen King’s classic novel IT shattered box office records and became a phenomenon, ending its run as the highest-grossing R-rated horror film of all-time. Unquestioningly, Warner Bros. was quick to green light a sequel, which is set to be released this weekend. Already, it’s earning mostly positive reviews and is projected to be a massive box office hit....

Netflix’s The Witcher differs from the video games in many ways, chiefly because the series is based more heavily on the short stories and books rather than CD Projekt Red’s RPG trilogy. The Witcher season one establishes its main characters - Geralt of Rivia, Yennefer of Vengerberg, and Ciri - and dives into their back stories and general philosophies to help illustrate the ways they complement and clash with one another....

Everyone’s a hopeless romantic to someone or their stalker. How I Met Your Mother defined this as the Dobbler / Dahomey Effect. Unless you enjoy all of the romantic things your stalker is doing, you’re genuinely a little put off. For fans of the show, hopeless romantic Ted Mosby is on a grand quest, but along the way he does a lot of questionable things that according to the viewers may or may not actually be romantic....

Read on as we answer “ How much is a land tax in NSW?” and much more. Who Pays Land Tax in NSW?

Logan is now in theaters and marks the apparent end of Hugh Jackman’s long and illustrious journey as The Wolverine. It may be hard for some to remember a time when a whole year passed without an incredible superhero film hitting theaters, but this was the world that Jackman entered. He now leaves the role, and the superhero film genre, in an inarguably better place. This is due in no small part to his earnest, vulnerable, and heartfelt performances as one of the fiction’s most hard-as-nails heroes....

Talk show host Conan O’Brien briefly appeared in an episode of How I Met Your Mother. Unlike previous guest stars, O’Brien didn’t actually speak and instead simply served as a background extra - and there’s an interesting story behind his walk-on role. How I Met Your Mother had its fair share of guest stars over the CBS sitcom’s nine-season run. The series featured guest roles from actors like Bryan Cranston, Joe Manganiello, Kyle MacLachlan, and John Lithgow, and musical artists like Britney Spears, Katy Perry, Nicole Scherzinger, and Jennifer Lopez....

The Fast & The Furious film series has evolved significantly since its debut in 2001. April 2017 will see the release of the eighth film in the saga, The Fate of the Furious, which aims to be the most outlandish entry yet. Looking back on it now, it can seem hard to fathom just how Fast & Furious transitioned from a fairly self-serious movie about street racing criminals to a madcap action extravaganza over the course of just a few sequels....

How I Met Your Mother had absolutely massive shoes to fill as its first episode was broadcast only a year after Friends had ended. HIMYM was a show about a group of five young people living in New York who faced many trials and tribulations over the course of 9 years. Ted, Marshall, Lily, Robin, and Barney were the best of friends and were always there for each other whenever someone was going through a rough time....

Getting verified on TikTok can be a great way to legitimize your account and show your audience that you’re the real deal. Unfortunately, it’s not always easy to get verified. TikTok is notoriously vague about its verification process, and they don’t give out a lot of information about what it takes to get verified. However, you can use some tactics to increase your chances of getting verified on TikTok. Don’t lose heart too soon, though....

Warning: SPOILERS for The Fate of the Furious ahead - Fate of the Furious is the eighth installment in the Fast franchise, which started life in 2001 with the release of The Fast and the Furious. For newcomers to the bold and bombastic action series, the Fast timeline can be a little confusing; the first movie released is the first installment, but things get a little more complex from there on in, and The Fate of the Furious alters the Fast timeline still further....

Lucasfilm is home to some of the biggest film properties in the industry and has been a cultural touchstone for more than four decades, but there’s still some confusion about how the studio operates and its place within the Disney empire. Even those who fervently follow every update about the various Star Wars projects in development have questions about the bigger machine and all its moving parts. George Lucas, who founded Lucasfilm way back in 1971, helped shepherd a new era for Hollywood with his productions, entertaining millions around the world with his escapist fantasy stories....

Battery draining is one of the common issues that usually occur even to the best of us. Even with a boastful spec sheet of their smartphones, many folks struggle to even make it through the day without having to top off their battery. This is mostly compounded by the fact that we’re so much dependent on our smartphones and using it very often. We rely on smartphones so much to make calls, receive and send emails, stay in touch with friends, shop online, listen to music, watch movies, surf the web, play games and etc....

How I Met Your Mother might not have been the first sitcom based around a group of friends just hanging out in their New York City apartment all day, but the Maclaren’s Pub Gang never ceased to make their audience chuckle and made everybody wish that they had a group of friends that were as close as they were. That being said, the core five members of the show based on the world’s longest love-story weren’t the only characters to make their way into Maclaren’s Pub over the years....

For nine years, How I Met Your Mother fans followed Ted Mosby’s search for love, narrated by his older self from 2030. As with any long-running sitcom, the show had many ups and downs, with some episodes standing as all-time greats and others eliciting nothing but groans from the audience. The characters were always lovable, but their stories occasionally left a lot to be desired. While the seasons, on the whole, dipped in quality as time went on, there’s at least one gem in each of them....

Despite cries to the contrary, the superhero genre isn’t going anywhere. 2016 offered seven films, a number matched by this year (counting Marvel, DC, X-Men and outliers like Power Rangers and TMNT) and 2018 has a solid five (with room for at least a couple more) But if you really want proof comic book adaptations are here to stay, you need to go to 2019. It’s obviously a couple of years out, but this is shaping up to be the biggest year yet for both Marvel and DC, while the likes of Fox and Sony are also speeding up....

Fortune does a nice look back on how long Apple has waited from announcement (which seems to be October 4th at this point) and actual launch of the iPhones and iPads. Initial launch windows are huge because there weren’t really competitors in the space quite yet. Importantly, the general trend is towards a smaller window. Ten days out, October 14th, seems like a reasonable projection, doesn’t it? Ahead of the launch, Samsung wants iPhone 5 banished from Korea (9to5mac....

It’s your last chance to guess what Apple Watch will cost ahead of today’s ‘Spring Forward’ event where CEO Tim Cook and company are expected to fill us in on pricing, availability, and hopefully preorders. We know Apple Watch will start at $349, likely for the Sport model, but what we’re really interested in is the starting price for the most expensive model(s): the 18k gold Apple Watch Edition and the stainless steel Apple Watch with stainless steel band (pictured above)....

A total makeover. That’s what Dunlap discovered when she walked through the doors of Dress For Success (DFS) Indianapolis. She was looking for clothes because she couldn’t afford an interview suit; she ended up clothed in something that suited her much better. The mission of Dress for Success Indianapolis is to empower women to achieve economic independence by providing a network of support, professional attire and the development tools to help women thrive in work and in life....

Like most ‘attractive young people in New York’ sitcoms, How I Met Your Mother is all about the friendships. Yes, it’s about romance (and the never-ending search for it), but while boyfriends and girlfriends come and go, it’s the core group of friends that give the show its heart and soul. Except that, when you start to look at little closer at some of these ‘friendships’, they aren’t quite as heartwarming as that opening montage of bar photos would have us believe....
