Bohemian RhaPOLLdy
One of the most enigmatic, surrealistic and iconic songs of all time, Bohemian Rhapsody (2018) is also the title of one of the most anticipated biopics of the year, starring Rami Malek as pop icon Freddie Mercury. In homage to the legendary song that made Wayne Campbell and his friends bang their heads at the guitar solo, here's a selection of classic movie shots that illustrate each of the song's legendary lyrics... literally, symbolically, in a way... or in another. Which image/lyrics combo hit the most sensitive chord to you? After voting, you might discuss the list here
Creative Character Names
Excellent prose sometimes seems to be a dying art. The film industry, at times, does its part to revive it with great screen plays or scripts based on great novels. Great screen plays and great novels have something in common: they tend to be written by great writers, like Harper Lee, Spike Lee, and Quentin Tarantino. Great writers are imaginative enough that often their creativity is also displayed in details, such as the titles of the films and/or names of the characters, sometimes ignored by other writers. Below are some great character names that are wonderfully original or ironic, yet don't betray the character with unnecessary showiness or unfitting silliness. Instead of asking you for your favorite character, we ask: which name do you think best suits the particular character and helps to brings that person to life? After voting, feel free to discuss here. Note: All characters are listed in alphabetical order.

Mysterious Movie Characters
Over the years, cinema has graced us with countless fascinating personalities with even more fascinating origins. For some characters, however, much of their allure stems from the fact that they have remained an enigma to us, mysterious characters whose pasts WE DEMAND TO LEARN MORE ABOUT. With many of them, we were either given their 'version' of their past or simply no backstory at all. Either way, we're left with questions. Which of these mysterious characters portrayed in film, and their surely fascinating pasts, would you be eager to learn more about? (Please note: In order to be eligible for this list, these characters must have a past, whether it being their childhood or background, that hasn't truly been explained in the films they have featured in and thus remain a general mystery to us.)
