Ryan Gosling has confirmed what we all know about the sexes.

Women are better than men*.

The Nice Guys star – who has two daughters with Eva Mendes – told ES Magazine: ‘I’ve always liked women more. I was brought up by my mother and older sister. I found my way into dance class. My home life now is mostly women.

‘They are better than us. They make me better.’

‘You can tell especially when you have daughters and you see their early stages, they are just leaps and bounds beyond boys immediately,’ he added.

Because the film will be the first in the Marvel Cinematic Universe to see a female hero get a solo outing.

So far names like Rebecca Ferguson, Emily Blunt and Charlize Theron have been thrown into the mix, but now Brie Larson is said to be a frontrunner in the casting process.

Would you like to Amazon Prime Instant Video and chill?

Yeah, that’s never going to catch on.

But just because it doesn’t slide easily into a thoroughly modern euphemism for casual sex, doesn’t mean Amazon can’t compete with its rival Netflix.

While Netflix may have the bigger library of movies, there is still plenty of cinematic quality on Amazon Prime, and all of it for free. Uh, as long as you pay your monthly subscription.

Here are the best movies on Amazon right now.

Got a spare £2,500 knocking around? You’ll probably want to spend it on this, if you’re a Star Wars fan.

You can now get your hands on a very special piece of movie memorabilia, you’re very own, made to order melted Darth Vader helmet for just $3,500 (£2,428).

Worth the spend, for sure.

There is a slight hidden cost – there’s a whopping shipping charge attached to that which brings the total to $4,040.58 (£2,083.90), and they’ll only let you buy one per house hold (just in case you were thinking of filling up your spare room with these bad boys), so it doesn’t come catch free.

Following in the footsteps of Leo brings its own rewards in Canada… but no Oscars. (Picture: 20th Century Fox)

Even though Oscar-winning drama The Revenant is set in America, the bulk of filming took place in Alberta, Canada.

So in an effort to follow the epic trail Leonardo DiCaprio’s character Hugh Glass undertakes in the film, I visited some of the locations used in the movie.

Based on a true story, The Revenant follows Glass – who is left for dead by fellow trappers – as he seeks brutal revenge on those who have wronged him. The violence is a polar-opposite to the serene beauty of rural Canada, although once you… Read the full story
