Movie theaters are the middle child of the movie industry. Theater owners build expensive cinematic palaces, and their employees constantly receive the brunt of criticism for ticket prices. The studios reward their efforts by attempting to steer business from them. Recently, theater chains planned to shorten the theaters-to-video cycle for a proposed $30 video on demand (VOD) premium option.

On January 3rd, 2017, the Queen of Geek, the marvelous Felicia Day, announced that she is expecting a baby girl in just three weeks.

“I thought you weren’t married?!?!”
