Question for other #YouTubers, where do you get you clips from movies and TV shows to use in your videos?

Stranger Things is coming to an end soon, but there's a problem that's been holding the show back since season one: it won't kill off its characters. Over its four-season run, none of the main…

Ben Solo is the worst character in the #StarWars sequels. A selfish, ungrateful child who rebels against his parents, while cosplaying as Darth Vader.
