Modern science fiction movies provide&nbsp;audiences with a wide range of subject matter. The genre offers a lot of flexibility, as it is capable of telling stories set on Earth or in outer space. Often times, the two are combined, with aliens visiting our planet&nbsp;or by having&nbsp;earthlings journey to another planet. Audiences have long enjoyed the speculative nature of sci-fi - the way it imagines amazing scientific breakthroughs, futuristic societies, interstellar battles, and more. It taps directly into our collective imagination.

The best new sci-fi films have continued this tradition. The genre has benefited from modern advancements in special effects technology. As CGI becomes more and more sophisticated, it&#39;s possible for movies to take on bigger ideas and to depict astonishing sights with more authenticity than ever before. Consequently, a couple of the more recent sci-fi movies have already come close to achieving &quot;classic&quot; status.&nbsp;

Originally known as Timely Publications and then as Atlas Comics, the comic book publishing company known as Marvel began in 1961 when it launched The Fantastic Four.

The Universe of Marvel Comics

Comic Books & Characters

Marvel Comics has long been the kind of company that honors its fans&#39; requests in a number of fun and interesting ways. Back in 1977, the company tried something new by releasing a series titled&nbsp;What If...?&nbsp;with each issue focusing one or more stories related to their previously published titles. Instead of Spider-Man getting rejected from the Fantastic Four in&nbsp;The Amazing Spider-Man&nbsp;#1, why not see&nbsp;What If... Spider-Man JOINED The Fantastic Four?&nbsp;

Titles like that explored how the Marvel Universe might have turned out differently if just one thing was altered from how it actually played out. Each comic essentially created what would become Marvel&#39;s Multiverse in that each issue was <a href="https://www.ranker.com/list/main-timelines-marvel-universe/ranker-comics" target="_blank">basically a separate universe</a> depicting a slight change (or sometimes <a href="https://www.ranker.com/list/craziest-marvel-what-if-stories/stephanroget" target="_blank">a wild change</a>) from what happened in Marvel&#39;s prime universe, otherwise known as Earth-616. Some of the stories were so successful and beloved, parts of a few found their way into canon eventually.

What If...?&nbsp;has been a popular series for Marvel Comics for decades, and it&#39;s even been made into <a href="https://www.ranker.com/list/best-what-if-episodes/ranker-tv" target="_blank">an animated TV show&nbsp;for Disney&#39;s new streaming service, Disney+</a>. But even the most extensive television anthology series can&#39;t cover all possible possibilities, so why not take a look at the many&nbsp;What If...?&nbsp;titles Marvel has published over the years and rank up your absolute favorite to see which one rises to be the best of them all!

This list of the best, most interesting characters from HBO&#39;s Game of Thrones&nbsp;series has been voted on by tens of thousands of GoT fans. Though the complicated study of power dynamics in the fantasy kingdom of Westeros may not have too many identifiable or even sympathetic lead characters, it has nonetheless produced a wide variety of compelling, entertaining and outsized personalities, from the brutal boy king Joffrey Baratheon to his diminutive but ingenious cousin Tyrion Lannister to their rivals, <a class="edS-cl" href="https://www.ranker.com/list/all-members-of-house-stark/ranker-of-thrones?ref=internalCrossLinking_keyword">the Stark family</a> of Winterfell and the &quot;Mother of Dragons,&quot; Daenerys Targaryen. But which characters are the true fan favorites, providing the most memorable moments and unexpected plot twists? While it&#39;s inevitably that a certain Bolton is likely to get heavily downvoted based on the true evilness of his character, hopefully some of the more nuanced &quot;not purely evil&quot; characters will maintain high rankings based on the opinion of true fans (like yourself, dear reader!).&nbsp;

HBO&#39;s Game of Thrones&nbsp;show is based on the Song of Ice and Fire&nbsp;cycle of novels by fantasy author George R. R. Martin.&nbsp;Martin has said that the series was partially based on the real &quot;War of the Roses&quot; that engulfed England in civil war in the 15th Century. Those conflicts concerned a rivalry between the houses of Lancaster and York, whose names clearly provided inspiration for the rival families of Lannister and Stark in the GoT universe. While this list is focused on characters from the TV series, voters who have both seen the show and read the books will probably vote somewhat differently given the additional nuance they will bring to their opinion of this unique ranking. This list ranks every major Game of Thrones character from best to worst, and given how many fans have voted on it, it&#39;s the definitive ranking of GoT&nbsp;fan favorites

Geeking Out: Star Wars

There are more celebrity&nbsp;cameos in Star Wars&nbsp;than there are droids in&nbsp;Attack of the Clones. Okay, maybe not&nbsp;that&nbsp;many, but the sheer number of celebrities who appeared in Star Wars films could form a small but surprisingly famous Rebel Alliance. Since the original&nbsp;Star Wars&nbsp;never intended to become a phenomenon, the first trilogy features few, if any,&nbsp;<a href="https://www.ranker.com/list/hidden-celebrity-cameos-you-missed/nathan-gibson" target="_blank">Star Wars&nbsp;celebrity cameos</a>. However, when the series made its return in 1999 with&nbsp;The Phantom Menace&nbsp;(which you can <a href="https://disneyplus.bn5x.net/c/1217251/707629/9358?subid1=2652208&amp;subid2=Disney%2B&amp;subid3=comlink&amp;u=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.disneyplus.com%2F" target="_blank">stream on Disney+</a>), it had enough clout to feature a few more cameo appearances. George Lucas appears to be a rather generous fellow, letting not just actors make appearances in&nbsp;Star Wars,&nbsp;but also his film crew, their family members, and even Lucas&#39;s own son and daughters. By the time The Last Jedi&nbsp;arrived in December&nbsp;2017, celebrity cameos in <a href="https://www.ranker.com/list/stormtrooper-cameos-sw-universe/tyler-mitchell" target="_blank">Star Wars reached royal levels of celebrity</a>. Not hyperbolic royalty, actual&nbsp;royalty -&nbsp;two&nbsp;princes appear in the film.

The best celebrity cameos in Star Wars lie below, each more surprising than the last. Academy Award winners, comedians, and even directors pop up in all manner of setting and species, some looking so alien you fail to recognize them. But finding celebrities in Star Wars is simply another <a href="https://www.ranker.com/list/star-wars-easter-eggs/destiny-a-lopez" target="_blank">Easter egg of the Star Wars franchise</a>.

Superheroes

This lists the most badass, inspiring, and iconic comic book superheroes ever created. This list includes central characters from both the DC and Marvel Universe, as well as more non-traditional or underground comic books. The definition of&nbsp;a &quot;superhero&quot; can be quite slippery, and often encompasses characters with questionable morals and behavior (your classic anti-heroes).&nbsp;If you love these superheroes, keep in mind that&nbsp;a few of them have really <a href="http://www.ranker.com/list/the-10-lamest-super-hero-origins/ihateeverything">lame origin stories</a>.

Traditionally, a &quot;superhero&quot; is&nbsp;a larger-than-life character gifted with special abilities, either organically or via their own genius or inventiveness, who uses his or her powers to protect and defend the public from threats - at times <a href="https://www.ranker.com/list/unexpected-superhero-day-jobs/stephanroget" target="_blank">even while maintaining day jobs</a>. Though the word &quot;superhero&quot; began to be used as early as the 1910s, the concept really took hold in the public&#39;s mind following the introduction of Superman in 1938.

Though Superman and other characters of his day were gifted with special talents and abilities, making them particularly suited to crusading for justice, many characters that followed were more &quot;human&quot; than the noble alien from Krypton, using their intelligence (such as Iron Man or Batman) to create a superheroic persona.&nbsp;

Because of the massive popularity of superheroes &ndash; particularly at the start of the 21st Century, when <a href="http://www.ranker.com/crowdranked-list/the-best-superhero-movies-ever-made">superhero films</a> reign&nbsp;at the box office &ndash; a number of deconstructions and analyses of the genre have also been done, culminating in the creation of &quot;meta-superheroes&quot; who comment on the concept of superheroism itself.&nbsp;So take a look at this list, decide who your favorite comic book superheroes are, and vote them up.&nbsp;We have your top 50 superheroes, your top 100 superheroes of all time&hellip; we even have your <a class="edS-cl" href="https://www.ranker.com/list/most-powerful-comic-book-characters-ranked/ranker-comics?ref=internalCrossLinking_keyword">top 200 comic book characters</a> of all time.

Who doesn&#39;t love a little bit of wordplay every now and then? When the so-called &#39;Disney Reinassance&#39; began in the late 1980s, Disney Puns became a thing as more and more of them began to pop up throughout their numerous animated films.

Easter Eggs

Google Easter eggs are the funny, quirky and sometimes just plain weird hidden features built into Google Search, Gmail, Google Maps and other Google products. They have a keen fondness for marking special occasions, and a decorated history of April's Fool's pranks. If there was ever any doubt, let's quell it now: Google has one hell of a sense of humor.For many of Google’s Easter eggs, the search engine acts more like a command prompt and tends to take things a bit too literally. Fret not, the results are often as hysterical as they are clever. Search for “anagram,” and it will turn up with the anagram of “anagram” in the “did you mean” section. Feel like taking a break from work to play some Pac-Man? They’ve got you covered, and you don’t even have to leave your search results.Yes, it’s true, Google is essentially Skynet at this point. But for all of their might and despite every indication of “BIG EVIL CORPORATION,” you just can’t help but love Google. Maybe that’s part of their marketing strategy. Maybe all of these Easter eggs are just ways to keep us thinking that they’re human while the machines over in Mountain View ready the harvesters. Maybe so. But in the meantime, who doesn’t love a good Easter egg hunt. Feel free to vote for your favorite Google secrets, and make sure to share the article so the robots think you’re on their side.&nbsp;

The Best Characters In The Marvel Cinematic Universe

Currently in Phase Three, the first two MCU Phases brought us Iron Man, The Avengers, and Captain America: Winter Soldier.&nbsp;Marvel sagas have a timelessness about&nbsp;them as morality tales of good versus&nbsp;evil will always be an overarching cultural concern.

Which Marvel films have struck a chord with audiences? Black Panther&nbsp;has received nearly universal critical acclaim and been lauded for using the characters and setting to make allegorical points about race relations in America.

Judge Dredd

The Best Science Fiction Action Movies

Drama

WARNING: Spoilers abound. If you&rsquo;re caught up on Season 9, you should be fine, though.

Walking Dead fans spend about 60% of their time discussing who will die before just about every episode. Watching the AMC show causes anxiety for this very reason alone. Who&rsquo;s actually going to make it to the end or very close to the end of The Walking Dead? Even though the&nbsp;<a href="https://www.ranker.com/list/how-does-twd-comic-end/stephanroget" target="_blank">TWD comic ended in July 2019</a>, the show and its source material have diverged enough that no one is truly safe.

Daryl Dixon doesn&rsquo;t even exist in the comic books but he&rsquo;s got fans so crazed, they border on the obsessive. Norman Reedus has vowed to strike the first match if they kill off Daryl so he might just make it through the apocalypse. A popular saying among Dead fans: &ldquo;If they kill Daryl, we riot.&rdquo; It helps that as a character, Daryl has the skills and the luck to make it through psychopathic overlords, cannibals, bloodthirsty gangs, and even the dreaded yuppies behind Alexandria&rsquo;s walls.

If you were placing bets during season one, there&rsquo;s no way you&rsquo;d expect the mousy, domestically-abused Carol to live through an episode, much less outlive Glenn and Abraham. Even Carl has grown from being an overly-protected little boy to a stone-cold calculating killer.&nbsp;Will The Walking Dead&rsquo;s producers kill off the boy who has lived through so much - even having to kill his own mother?

Remember, you&#39;re voting up the characters most likely to make it, not your favorite characters.&nbsp;Who will survive in this hard, cruel world all the way to the bitter end? Who would you choose as the <a href="https://www.ranker.com/list/strongest-walking-dead-characters/jonathan-kantor" target="_blank">Walking Dead characters</a> who will survive longest?
