The 15 Best Droids In Star Wars Ranked
It's a current trend on social media to point out how easily we're willing to bond with anything, even our household appliances. Science fiction, however, has known about our willingness to love our metal friends for decades. In 1977, "Star Wars" leaned all the way into this adorable aspect of humanity, with Threepio and Artoo becoming our guides to a galaxy far, far away. It was a bold move to put the story on the shoulders of these two droids, but despite their metal shells, their humanity ha

Superman & Lois Season 2 Trailer: The CW's Power Couple Is Back
Leaping long plot lines in a single bound, Superman (Tyler Hoechlin) returns to save the day in the second season of the superhero drama series "Superman & Lois," and CW has just dropped a trailer of the super-duper goings-on to expect. To recap: last season, the titular hero and Steele, a.k.a John Henry Irons (Wole Parks) gave Clark's scoundrel half-brother Tal-Rho (Adam Rayner) what for, and Irons' daughter, Natalie (Tayler Buck), emerged from a crash-landed ship on Earth-Prime.

Jason Eisener, whose credits include "Hobo With a Shotgun" and the "Dark Side Of The Ring" docuseries, is directing the sci-fi horror film "Kids vs. Aliens," which centers around a house party interrupted by extraterrestrials. Of course, that title really does tell you everything you need to know.

Ghostbusters: Afterlife Composer Rob Simonsen On Emulating And Evolving The Original Ghostbusters Score [Interview]
Even though "Ghostbusters: Afterlife" has some sizable missteps in its slavish references to the original "Ghostbusters," one of the more praiseworthy elements of reverence and nostalgia comes in the form of Rob Simonsen's score for the sequel. Not only does the soundtrack perfectly utilize the familiar themes from composer Elmer Bernstein's original 1984 score, but it emulates and evolves the music to create a blockbuster score that calls back to the glory days of adventure movies of the 1980...

How Hawkeye Finally Addresses The Darker Side Of Being A Superhero
"People don't want that cynical 'cool' thing anymore, they want sincerity. Not self-seriousness, but heart-on-your-sleeve sincerity."
About midway through the second episode of "Hawkeye," titled "Hide and Seek," Kate Bishop (Hailee Steinfeld) and Clint Barton (Jeremy Renner) are strolling through the streets of New York City and end up holding an impromptu debate that feels much bigger than a mere difference in opinion. On a surface level, the scene is ostensibly about Kate calling out Hawkey...

Here's When You Can Watch Don't Look Up At Home
Netflix has been on an absolute tear when it comes to releasing original movies in 2021, with at least one original movie arriving on the streaming service each week — and in many cases several. But the company has saved one of its biggest for last, as director Adam McKay's star-studded comedy "Don't Look Up" is set to arrive this month.

The Turning Ending Explained: Is This Movie Really That Bad?
There's a fair chance more people have heard about "The Turning" (more specifically, its ending) being terrible than have actually seen the film. Adapted from Henry James' classic Gothic horror novella "The Turn of the Screw," the movie was once called "Haunting" and was meant to mark Steven Spielberg's triumphant return to the horror genre as a producer. Instead, it went through a bumpy pre-production that led to the film's original title, cast, and crew being dropped before shooting began on

The 15 Best Two-Player Board Games
Board games are often a social experience. Many players find them a refreshing alternative to video games, and the opportunities to combine cardboard, beer, and community give tabletop games a bit of an edge. But while many games are designed with large groups in mind, there's something special about titles that work best with two players (or even one, but that's probably another list altogether).
Complexity is a key factor here. The more people you have to teach the game, the more uncertain th

Scream TV Spot Has Ghostface Using A Flamethrower
When the first trailer for the new "Scream" movie arrived earlier this year a lot of people seemed bothered that the latest entry looked like more of the same. Been there, done that. Well, if you're craving something different from the "Scream" franchise, how about this: Ghostface using a flamethrower. The slasher is seen shooting a huge blast of fire in a new TV spot, and wearing what appears to be a silver mask instead of the traditional latex Ghostface face. This brief, hot snippet sure see...

Halloween Kills Blu-Ray Is Coming Next Month, Complete With The Alternate Ending
David Gordon Green's "Halloween Kills," the sequel to the filmmaker's 2018 slasher legacyquel "Halloween," finally arrived in theaters and on Peacock in October after being delayed a year by Covid. It earned a far more divisive reception than its predecessor, dramatically upping Michael Myers' body count while more or less doing away with whatever subtlety Green's "Halloween" took with its social commentary.

Leonardo DiCaprio And Adam McKay Discuss The Urgency And Humor In Don't Look Up
"It's so sad and frustrating to watch people who have dedicated their lives to learning the truth be turned away, because people don't like what the truth has to say."
That quote from Jennifer Lawrence at the recent "Don't Look Up" press conference encapsulates the last several years of what it's been like to live in a world in which science and facts have come under attack. Co-writer/director Adam McKay tackles that idea head-on in his star-studded new comedy, which features the Oscar-winning...

Will Ferrell, Jamie Foxx, and Will Forte bring a happy howl-iday treat for movie lovers; the trio will voice-star in the upcoming live-action/CGI comedy "Strays," about an abandoned dog who tag-teams with local strays to exact revenge on his ex-owner. This will be director Josh Greenbaum's follow-up to his feature breakout, the unashamedly silly "Barb and Star Go to Vista Del Mar."

James Bond Producer Barbara Broccoli Thinks Women Deserve Their Own Characters
"No Time to Die" is the latest film in the 007 series. There have now been 25 James Bond films, the last several starring Daniel Craig who is now retiring from the role and the franchise. Of course, speculation is rife in terms of who should play the famous spy that everyone immediately recognizes. I mean, it always is, but now that Craig is leaving, it's hit a fever pitch.

Thandiwe Newton May Join The Cast Of The Next Magic Mike
The cast of the upcoming (and if the title is to be believed, final) "Magic Mike" movie has been growing (and/or showing) and it's making us feel a certain kind of way. When we first reported on "Magic Mike's Last Dance," there was no word on who would be joining the cast outside of Channing Tatum, who has been gyrating and thrusting as "Magic" Mike Lane since the first film debuted in 2012. But Thandiwe Newton is apparently throwing her tear away clothes into the ring and we couldn't be more e

Sonic 2 Brings Back Original Video Game Voice Actor As Tails

Bond Producers Want To Work With No Time To Die Director Cary Fukunaga Again
Cary Fukunaga might be fresh off of directing the latest high-flying entry in the world of James Bond, but if Barbara Broccoli has anything to say about it, this won't be the last time he teams up with 007. The delightfully named owner of the James Bond film franchise can't stop saying nice things about the "No Time to Die" director, and it seems the feeling is mutual. Fukunaga's Bond film might feel like the closing of a door, but maybe it's also the opening of a window? At the very least, rev

Shows Like Game Of Thrones You Definitely Need To See
Yes, some years ago, "Game of Thrones" ended — a walker was killed, a dragon burned a throne, a boy who couldn't become king became the king, and a fanbase went wild. But whatever disappointments "Game of Thrones" ended with, the show still began with undeniable promise.
It wasn't like the others. It was a big-budget fantasy series — a rarity at the time — and rewrote entire conceptions about narratives driven by morality. The good would no longer benefit from the tradition of hand-holdin...

The Essential Marvel Movies You Must Rewatch Before Spider-Man: No Way Home
"Spider-Man: No Way Home" feels like it's been a long time coming, at least by Marvel Cinematic Universe standards. The end of 2019's "Far From Home" left audiences with one heck of a cliffhanger, setting the stage for Tom Holland's biggest cinematic adventure as the beloved superhero to date. This movie has a whole lot going for it, with Doctor Strange along for the ride, the Marvel multiverse cracking wide open, and whatever surprises are in store we don't even know about yet.

Don't Look Up Review: This Smug, Shrill Disaster Movie Satire Is Just A Disaster
Who is "Don't Look Up" for? Adam McKay stepped away from his unapologetically silly comedies with 2015's "The Big Short," a semi-serious investigation into the crisis surrounding the United States housing bubble. It was a new side to McKay, and while the film outfitted famous players in goofy wigs, the reception was positive, and the message was sound. McKay ventured further down this path with "Vice," his acidic biopic of Dick Cheney. The reaction to "Vice" was more mixed -- most critics tor...

Here's The Latest Round Of Kevin Feige Giving Perfect Non-Answers To Pressing Marvel Questions

Feige is a master of giving us all just enough hints without spoiling anything.
As you may have read, Feige recently sort of suggested that Netflix Marvel star Charlie Cox could appear in the MCU. It would make sense, of course. Bring...

This Genius Invention Made 2001: A Space Odyssey's Most Complex Scene Possible
When "2001: A Space Odyssey" hit theaters in 1968, it was unlike anything audiences had seen before, and not everyone took kindly to it. According to The Hollywood Reporter, actor Rock Hudson was overheard grumbling "What is this bullsh*t?" before he ducked out of a screening in L.A., while in New York, around 250 people walked out of the premiere. The film eventually became a box office success, partially helped by a new poster campaign describing it as "The Ultimate Trip," aimed squarely at t

Why Anthony Bourdain Called Ratatouille The Best Food Movie Ever Made
Anyone who has watched "Ratatouille" will probably agree that it is a dazzling movie. Pixar's 2007 animated comedy is one of the studio's best films because its resonance isn't bound by an age group and is built around universal ideas and themes. It follows the adventures of Remy, a rat who lives in the French countryside and is blessed (or cursed, if you will) with a refined palate. His dream of becoming a chef consumes him, but in a world where diners run out of restaurants if they're found i

The two are now officially working together on another dark satire in the form of "Bad Blood," a film inspired by the real-life rise and fall of notorious Theranos CEO Elizabeth Holmes.

John Cho Says Making Harold & Kumar 4 Is Possible, But Complicated
Years before John Cho played Hikaru Sulu in the "Star Trek" Kelvin timeline and grew thick locks to bring Spike Spiegel to life in the live-action "Cowboy Bebop" series, the actor made his name getting up to all sorts of drug-fueled shenanigans opposite Kai Penn in the "Harold & Kumar" movies. The stoner buddy comedies were modest box office hits that earned decent reviews, combining raunchy gags and surreal humor with sharp jokes about racism in modern America.

Why Bill Murray's Nothing Lasts Forever Never Got A Theatrical Release
Bill Murray was one of the undisputed kings of comedy in the 1980s, and became one of Hollywood's brightest stars.

Being The Ricardos Review: An Exhausting And Unfunny Look At One Of The Funniest People Ever
Some multi-hyphenate filmmakers become their own worst enemy because they end up being stronger directors than writers, or vice versa.

To wit, Aaron Sorkin, who proved himself earlier in his career to be extremely gifted at capturing the rat-a-tat, rapid-fire pace of the world of media and politics, grafting urgency while depicting people speed-walking and talking through the halls of Washington, D.C. and

It also marks the latest triumph for Sony Pictures Animation and producers Phil Lord and Chris Miller, coming on the heels of the Oscar-winning "Spider-Man: Into the Spider-Verse" in 2018. Much like that film, "The Mitchells vs. The Machines" pushes the envelope for animation, blending 2D and 3D visuals to bring its

The Matrix Resurrections Trailer: It's Time To Return To The Source
"After all these years, to be going back to where it all started ... back to the Matrix." The release of the first trailer for "The Matrix Resurrections" promptly made it feel like 1999 all over again, bringing back Keanu Reeves and Carrie-Anne Moss well over a decade after we last saw them bow out of their iconic roles as Neo and Trinity, respectively. Along with her star leads, Lana Wachowski clearly has some unfinished business with this wonderfully idiosyncratic world and we couldn't possi...

Encanto, Ghostbusters, Eternals Cross Minor Milestones In Quiet Weekend At The Box Office
Well, that was one of the most uneventful weekends at the box office in some time. Unless you were someone who was particularly excited to see "Christmas With the Chosen: The Messengers," which cracked the top five with $4.1 million this weekend, it was pretty quiet, serving as something of a calm before the end-of-the-year storm. Even so, "Encanto," "Ghostbusters: Afterlife," and "Eternals" passed minor milestones over the past few days. Let's dig in.

Will There Be A Raya And The Last Dragon Sequel? Here's What We Know
With "Raya and the Last Dragon," Disney continued its push towards more diverse stories across the company's many franchises and studios. The film follows the titular heroine on a quest to reunite her land against a ravaging plague with the help of the world's last living dragon. It stood out as a striking celebration of the South Asian cultures that are usually excluded from mainstream media, and utilized much diversity behind the scenes with screenwriters Adele Lim ("Crazy Rich Asians") and Q

Tatiana Maslany's She-Hulk Will Be Completely CGI
Because Marvel's Hulk has such a storied history as a live-action television character, you might be left wondering if Disney+ was going to honor that tradition with their forthcoming series "She-Hulk." Lou Ferrigno played Bruce/David Banner's alter ego in green make-up and a fright wig from 1978 to 1982 on CBS' "The Incredible Hulk," and then later in three made-for-TV movies from 1988 to 1990. Now "She-Hulk" star Tatiana Maslany ("Orphan Black") has told the Scott Hasn't Seen podcast (via ...

Doctor Who New Year's Special Trailer: Happy Holidays, Have Some Daleks
"Doctor Who: Flux" has just come to an end, but there's no rest for the wicked -- or for Time Lords and their companions. After the credits rolled on the season 13 finale, the BBC aired a trailer for "Doctor Who: Eve of the Daleks," the upcoming New Year's special set to premiere on January 1, 2022.
And what better way to ring in the New Year than with a time loop? The trailer for "Eve of the Daleks" features the return of one of the Doctor's oldest enemies, but rather than dying permanently wh

5 Marvel Characters We'd Love To See Keanu Reeves Play In The MCU
Keanu Reeves has officially announced that it would be an "honor" for him to join the Marvel Cinematic Universe. Good sir, the honor would be ours.
In an interview with Esquire, the "Matrix Resurrections" actor revealed:
"It would be an honor [to join the MCU] ... There's some really amazing directors, and visionaries, and they're doing something no one's ever really done. It's special in that sense in terms of the scale, the ambition, the production. So it'd be cool to be a part of that."

Will There Ever Be A Christmas Chronicles 3? Here's What We Know
"The Christmas Chronicles" was a massive hit for Netflix when it debuted on the streaming service in 2018. It was watched by 20 million people in its opening week itself and led to a sequel where Kurt Russell reprised his role as the uber-cool, gruff Santa Claus and accompanied kids on another adventure to save Christmas.
The first "Christmas Chronicles" film follows children Kate and Teddy, who sneak into Santa's sleigh after he visits their home, causing the sleigh to malfunction. Santa's re...

Chucky Season 1 Ending Explained: Who Lived, Who Died, Who Wants To Play Again?
The range of emotions the "Chucky" TV series has put me through made me feel almost as bats*** insane as the "Child's Play" franchise itself -- not that I'm complaining. Good media makes you feel things, and "Chucky" has made viewers feel a lot of things.
If you're one of those viewers, we can work through our emotions together as we attempt to make sense of the wonderful, whacky, and weird events of the "Chucky" season 1 ending with an in-depth look at what happened to the characters, how it ...

The Reason Dragon Ball Z Has All Those Filler Episodes
"Dragon Ball Z" is a wildly popular anime series that's best known for its epic action sequences. The action-packed shonen franchise has a reputation for being filled to the brim with crazy battle arcs and long drawn out fights, but not every episode of the show keeps the bloody, breakneck pace going. Some slow down to explore the characters in other, unexpected ways; I'm talking, of course, about the many filler episodes scattered throughout "Dragon Ball Z." Although the temptation is to dismi

The Alternate Return Of The Jedi Ending We're Glad We Never Had To See
It might be a little controversial to say this, but "Return of the Jedi," is one of my favorite films in the "Star Wars" universe. It's an epic conclusion to the original trilogy and has one of the happiest endings in the film franchise. The Death Star is destroyed, Darth Vader turns back to the light side, and fireworks explode across the galaxy (which is kind of like being at Disneyland, but 10x cooler).
Yet the trilogy as we know it today could have been extremely different, had the original

This Movie Got Martin Scorsese Temporarily Banned From China
From 1997 until 2012, no Martin Scorsese films were available in China.
2020 was the first year in history wherein the Chinese box office outstripped that of the United States, and 2021 is shaping up to be the same. The highest-grossing films of this year are "The Battle of Lake Chanjing," which made $900 million, and "Hi, Mom," which made $850 million and is the highest grossing film ever directed by a woman. The third highest is "F9."

The Texas Chainsaw Massacre Trailer: Guess Who's Back, Back Again...
I hope you've been keeping up your cardio, because Leatherface is back and so is his chainsaw. Netflix has dropped the first teaser trailer for its upcoming "Texas Chainsaw Massacre" movie.
Though any effort to revive a classic horror franchise is generally met with a measure of skepticism, there are a couple of reasons to give "The Texas Chainsaw Massacre" a chance. First, the movie was produced and co-written by Fede Álvarez, the filmmaker behind the excellent 2013 remake of "The Evil Dead."...

47 Ronin Sequel Starring Mark Dacascos And Anna Akana Has Started Filming
In 2013, Variety listed "47 Ronin" as one of Hollywood's biggest box office bombs of the year. The film was the last Keanu Reeves vehicle to hit before "John Wick," which birthed a new action franchise and helped bring about a career resurgence for the actor. You might not think of "47 Ronin" as a franchise in the way of "John Wick" or "The Matrix," both of which have four-quels starring Reeves in the pipeline. However, "47 Ronin" does have a sequel on the way, headlined by one of Reeves' co-s...

Abel Ferrera And Ethan Hawke On Going To War For Art In Zeros And Ones [Interview]
Abel Ferrera's "Zeros and Ones," a thriller filmed in the heart of the pandemic, is in many ways a novel beast of a film. Dark, gritty, often told in close-ups, the film sees soldier J.J. (Ethan Hawke) digging into the dark underbelly of Rome to find his revolutionary brother, Justin (also Hawke), an idealistic radical who may hold the key to stopping the deadly attack.
It's a tense film with a singular vision from director Ferrera, and one that took full advantage of the eerie emptied stree...

However, outside of their remastered album recordings, fans haven't been able to hear much of the Fab Four in high definition.
Now, in "The Beatles: Get Back" on Disney+, director Peter Jackson has delivered audio and footage from The Beatles that's highe...

Tales From The Box Office: Resident Evil Beat The Video Game Movie Curse
Video games have been wildly popular for decades now, but it was in the '90s when Hollywood first became interested in the notion of turning these interactive experiences into movies. These began in earnest with the likes of the legendarily bad "Super Mario Bros." in 1993 and the A-for-effort "Mortal Kombat" in 1995. To this day, video game movies remain a truly difficult nut to crack, with only a few managing to rise above and become truly successful. Fewer still end up finding critical love b

Jon Bernthal Is Open To Returning As The Punisher, But Only If He Can 'Do It Right'

He was then given his own Netflix series that ran for two seasons.

After that, I calmly awaited death: only regretting ... that I must part from my friends so soon." Voltaire, of course, was a philosopher who wrote on behalf of the French Enlightenment, a movement that favored human happiness. To its members, knowledge wasn't merely power.

Lost In Space Season 3 Ending Explained: Trust, Will Robinson
"Lost in Space" (or, to use the title I personally gave it, "A Series of Unfortunate Events ... in Space!") has come to an end after three seasons packed with stunning sci-fi visuals and, despite the darkness along the way, a fundamentally hopeful vision of humanity's future. Based on the 1960s CBS show of the same name, "Lost in Space" debuted on Netflix in 2018 and has traveled many lightyears since then.

The dark noir film is something of a departure for the acclaimed filmmaker, trading i
