Must Watch Medieval and Roman Era Themed T.V. Series
There is a lot of interest for the medieval and historical periods. I myself am fascinated with it and do my best to learn what I can about it. That's how I came across all the amazing series you will read about in this article. That period was filled with violence, hierarchies, and marital drama, which are portrayed in these series as mature content. If you are a history buff like me, you have to watch these series, but keep in mind that they are not 100% historically accurate, some of the ones I will mention are completely based on fiction. Let's get to it.

6 Marvel Monsters to Inspire You for Halloween
If you have the same issue, then this is the post for you. Marvel has many heroes, but few are as overlooked as the Legion Of Monsters (apart from Flatman and the other Great Lakes Avengers). Skipping over Satana (skimpy outfits aren't my style; they make me look fat) and Ghost Rider (because setting my head on fire for Halloween might be a little drastic), let's start with the Living Mummy and see if we can't find some inspiration from these classic costume ideas.

The Avengers, Guardians of the Galaxy... Ranking the Movies of the Marvel Cinematic Universe
With Marvel's Phase 2 ending this summer with Ant-Man, it seemed appropriate to add my 2-cents to this ongoing conversation. Everyone is going to have their opinions and rankings when it comes to the movies in Marvel's Cinematic Universe. In fact, many of you have posted your very own version of this article. But this is going to be a little different. Friend and fellow Movie Pilot contributor, Derrick Weston and I have a plan to put our own respective rankings out and, much like the Fantasy Team Contest, compare our rankings and then let you participate in the conversation as well. So, be on the look out for all that.

Ranking the Marvel Cinematic Universe Movies: Take 2
Recently, @derricklweston and I have been podcasting about the MCU over at The Gospel According to Marvel, and through each episode we've keep bringing up how we need to update our ranking of the MCU movies (particularly the newest ones to come out). So, here I am, to share my thoughts; I want to read your comments and rebuttal, as I rank the current MCU. Some of these have stayed in their original place while others have been rearranged since rewatching. Remember, I base these ratings subjectively as movies (and not based on their comic book adherence).

"Cat Got Your Tongue?" and 9 Other Idiom Origins
Being a huge movie fan, I know there have been many idioms in movies that have slipped by me without much notice. And with approximately 25,000 idioms in the English language, that's a lot of non-literal words being said. So, while many of us may understand the gist of these phrases (more or less), their historical backgrounds may come as a surprise to you. My goal is to look at some of the more common idioms used in movies and take a look at their historical origins.

Top 10 Rom-Com Anime to Get You Hooked
I first discovered the world of anime in middle school when I stayed over at a friend's house and she and I decided to start something called Ouran High School Host Club. That was it. I was hooked. I still remember us binge-watching it and crying because we were laughing so hard while watching the anime. Since then I haven't stopped watching and my world of anime has grown much bigger.

Top 10 Must-Watch Studio Ghibli Films
After watching so many films and studying many more while I earned my degree in Film Studies, I got to thinking about what really got me so interested in film in the first place. I remembered watching Spirited Away and Kiki's Delivery Service so many times when I was young that my grandmother gave me the nickname Kiki, which my family still calls me to this day. Studio Ghibli has never once disappointed me with their films, I may not like some as much as others, but I've liked them enough to start collecting every film they have ever produced.

The Holiday season is upon us! The weather is getting colder, the leaves are falling and those pesky insects die off for the season. The first major holiday coming up is of course Thanksgiving, a time for family to come together and be thankful for what we have over the past year.

Top 7 TV Dads
I hope you enjoyed my piece on TV Moms because now it's TV Dads' turn to take the spotlight! Along with the iconic TV mothers we all know and love, more than likely they have a male counterpart (unless they're single mothers). As much as mothers shape our lives, fathers are just as important. Fathers are there to love, protect and teach the children the way in terms of what they want for them. For us daughters, our fathers are our first love because they are literally the first man to ever love us. And for sons fathers are their role models, their first teacher in everything.
