It’s funny how the news cycle works. Stories have popped up everywhere today about Sharon Stone and her infamous “uncrossed legs” maneuver in 1992’s Basic Instinct. And the media, by and large, have been eating it up. Which is fine, except…. this isn’t new. Initially, I was annoyed about the coverage, which was from a…
Actors’ roles live on long after they’re gone, but there have only been a handful of times where those roles nab award nominations. In its 93 years, the Academy Awards have featured nominees who were no longer among the living 62 times in various categories. Rarely, however, have those people gone on to win (just…
Here it is, our last look at the action series, The Falcon and The Winter Soldier before it debuts on Disney+. Wandavision was terrific. But I have to admit, kinda looking forward to a straight-up action series. Also, just as an aside…. why two “The”‘s in the title?
It’s been a strange year for the movies, but that hasn’t stopped the awards season. Still some take-aways to be looked at here, but Sasha Baron Cohen made out well with two nominations (and big congrats to Maria Bakalova for being nominated for her break-out role). Very diverse list of nominations from the actor/actress categories…
It’s been nearly 20 years since Bill and Ted last graced the silver screen. And now they’re getting back together for one more sequel. Bill & Ted Face the Music is set to hit theaters Aug. 1, 2020. And while little is known about the upcoming film, Orion Pictures has released a few still images….
Who ya gonna call now? We got our first real tease of the latest attempt to breathe new life into the Ghostbusters franchise. Sony has released a poster showing the old Ghostbuster mobile driving through an open field. This comes some months after Jason Reitman, who is directing and co-wrote the script to this sequel,…
Eddie Murphy’s turn as Rudy Ray Moore in Netflix’s Dolemite is my Name is just inspirational. So much so, I found myself thinking about other movies about filmmaking that left me feeling energized and inspired. Not just about making movies, but about filmmakers themselves. This list doesn’t just focus on feature films, and not all…
The hype machine for the newest Terminator film is gearing up, as we get ready for our first trailer to arrive. Today Paramount released a rather nice poster for Terminator: Dark Fate. It featured a long Linda Hamilton, armed and ready for action, walking through the desert. Hamilton, of course, famously played the role of…
I never really got the popularity of the Child’s Play movies. However, to be honest, I’ve never really seen any of them. Pretty sure I watched a little of the original, but that’s about it. Now they’re doing a reboot, and this time Mark Hamill is providing the voice of red-headed killer doll, Chucky. So…
My son came over to me a few weeks ago and noted we had to go see Eighth Grade. I was a little surprised by this declaration, as it didn’t quite seem like the kind of film my 15-year-old would want to see. But he did. And so did my 11-year-old daughter. I’d seen a…
