From movies, to television, to comics, to video games and more, we’ve picked a few highlights from the last seven days to help spurn conversation - but feel free to discuss any topic (within reason) that catches your fancy. This week, we've brought back Geek Picks as well - just a few items we've discovered that you might find interesting.
As with any new project, we’ll be updating and modifying the SR Forum post as we find new and interesting ways to present the information and discussion. Give us your thoughts and suggestions in the comments section. As usual, talk about whatever you like as long as it’s related to movies, TV or Screen Rant itself.
