How Disney made Darth Vader scary again
This week we plan to publish our profile of Kari Byron who reunited with the Mythbusters' build team for Netflix's White Rabbit Project. We'll also take a look at how Disney made Darth Vader scary again, explore a Clash of Clans cartoon made by some Simpsons writers, and provide you with an introduction to the Japanese animated series Yuri on Ice.
We'll also be continuing our end-of-year wrap-ups as we look back at how things progressed in science, entertainment, transportation, and tech over the course of 2016. We'll also see which companies made the grade this year, and give you tips for a better 2017. We'll even point out the best PS4 games and streaming TV selections to help while away the holidays.
