Pluribus: The One Note Vince Gilligan Had for Rhea Seehorn

Vince Gilligan knows about complicated characters. And he knows how people sometimes misunderstand those characters. Gilligan is, of course, best known for creating Breaking Bad, the hit TV series about a high school chemistry teacher who became a drug lord and, along the way, a hero to thousands of viewers. But the same principles are […]

Miles Teller Blames One Person for Fantastic Four Failure

With the Fantastic Four now firmly ensconced in the MCU, the 2015 misfire Fantastic Four mostly lives on as a meme. All over the internet, one can find images of Miles Teller‘s Reed Richards asking his friend(?) Ben Grimm (Jamie Bell) to “say that again,” after the Thing says the word “fantastic” in the movie’s […]

Rian Johnson Has a Wild Way to Save Poker Face from Cancelation

Poker Face has been canceled by Peacock. After two seasons, the Columbo-inspired mystery series created by Rian Johnson has possibly met its end, despite strong reviews from critics.

George R.R. Martin Calls Out a Controversial Spider-Man Story

Spider-Man: Brand New Day is coming to theaters next year, a brand new big-screen adventure starring Tom Holland as our favorite wall-crawler. But even that movie can’t distract from the comic book series One More Day, which preceeded the storyline that inspired the new movie. It may be almost two full decades since One More […]

Ghostbusters: Dan Aykroyd Revealed Surprise Spinoff Is Canon

Dan Aykroyd may be the chief creative force behind Ghostbusters, but his approach has always been a little different than most fans of the series. As a true believer in all things paranormal, Aykroyd originally envisioned the movie as a vast epic, filled with lore drawn from real myths. To this day, Aykroyd rarely misses […]

Predator: Badlands Director Almost Made Guardians of the Galaxy

Even though he now runs DC Studios and makes movies about Superman and shows about the Peacemaker, it’s hard not to think James Gunn when you hear the words “Guardians of the Galaxy.” Who else in Hollywood would look at weirdos like Drax the Destroyer or Rocket Raccoon and decide to make them the main […]

Elizabeth Olsen Predicts VisionQuest Will Complete WandaVision Trifecta

These days, it’s hard to love Marvel television. Not only has much of it been so substandard or immediately forgettable (remember Ironheart? That happened this year!), but it’s also often blamed for the lack of quality that’s plagued even the mainline MCU movies. Yet, there is one TV series that has avoided all that criticism, […]

James Bond Continuity Concerns Might Bring Back the Dumbest Fan Theory

For some reason, Amazon cares about James Bond continuity. Having newly acquired the rights to Ian Fleming‘s superspy from Eon Productions, who have held those rights since producing Dr. No in 1962, the streamer is reportedly having trouble picking up from the last entry, No Time to Die. “The last time we saw Bond, he […]

’90s Star Trek Creators Blast Modern Trek’s Tone

Every era of Star Trek gets its own fans and detractors. The Original Series had its incredible colors and sci-fi adventures, but had to deal with people mocking it for its cheesiness. The Next Generation had a strong ensemble cast and some of the best speeches in the franchise, but people complained about its beige […]

James Gunn Courts the Wrath of Alan Moore, Greenlights V for Vendetta Series

To our knowledge, legendary comic figure Alan Moore hasn’t weighed in on Superman, Peacemaker, or any of the other projects James Gunn has made for his DCU. But we can probably guess that he doesn’t like them. The master author behind Watchmen, The Killing Joke, and other superhero classics has long had a (well-earned) skepticism […]

Jimmy Olsen Spinoff Has to Clear Legends of Tomorrow’s High Bar

James Gunn doesn’t just love superheroes. He loves silly superheroes. Over his career, he has turned Rocket Raccoon, Groot, the Polka-Dot Man, and Peacemaker into not just household names, but also three-dimensional characters rich with pathos. But he has yet to clear the highest of bars when it comes to live-action adaptations of superhero wackiness, […]

Sigourney Weaver: Alien 5 Was Killed by ‘Possessive’ Ridley Scott

Picture this: a monster hovers over a defenseless child. It has every ability to tear the child apart, to infect the child, and turn it into something new. Something hideous. But then, just before the monster lunges, the child’s caretaker arrives and commands, “Get away from her, you bitch!” Okay, that’s probably not how it […]
