By Hoai-Tran Bui/June 1, 2017 3:00 pm EST Fan films have a short shelf life — either they’re forgotten in the netherworld of the Internet, or they’re taken to court by the studios that own the franchises upon which they’re based. Either way, despite the fans’ passion for the subject, they’re often doomed from the beginning. That was almost the case for a Harry Potter fan film that explored the origins of the immortality-seeking villain Voldemort, Voldemort: Origins of the Heir....

This New ‘Twin Peaks’ Season 3 Featurette Doesn’t Prove That ‘Twin Peaks’ Season 3 Actually Exists By Jacob Hall/Oct. 18, 2016 12:50 pm EST I won’t be convinced that Twin Peaks season 3 actually exists until the closing credits roll on the first episode sometime next year.
