Recently a friend mentioned how much of a shame it was that, generally speaking, there are few of those backdoor “classic” reimaginings today like the ones we had growing up. And after thinking for a moment, I agreed. Children and teens of the ‘90s were treated to an embarrassment of riches when it came to […]

Iron Man was a resounding success when it opened in 2008, earning more than half a billion dollars and declaring in no uncertain terms that Marvel Studios—and the Marvel Cinematic Universe, as it later came to be known—had arrived. Although Marvel was also developing movies about Thor, Captain America, and Ant-Man at the time, Iron […]

The old school action movie hero, like the old school movie star, is a dying breed. Tom Cruise is acutely aware of this since pretty much all of his franchised efforts in the 2020s have been about the glories of the fading old days and ways. Top Gun: Maverick, for example, explained why we still […]

It’s been 25 years since the original Final Destination film hit screens and began terrorizing audiences with its deeply memorable (and memeable) Rube Goldberg-like murder tableaus, which get more and more intricate and anxiety-inducing as the franchise goes on. Yet it’s somehow been 14 years since the last entry into the series—the campy, fun, and […]

Hayley Atwell and Tom Hiddleston recently concluded a run on the West End of William Shakespeare’s Much Ado About Nothing. This is perhaps not a surprise. Both thespians have multiple Olivier nominations to their names and are veterans of the Bard, with Atwell at one time being a member of the Royal Shakespeare Company. And […]

It’s unquestionable. Ryan Coogler’s Sinners is a verified box office smash.  The record-breaking film recently achieved another massive feat, taking $33.1 million on its third weekend of domestic release with another impressively small drop of just 27 percent week-on-week despite losing all Premium, Large Format, and IMAX screens to Marvel‘s latest would-be blockbuster, Thunderbolts* (Nee […]

This article contains light spoilers for Thunderbolts*. By this point, Marvel has fully spoiled the closing twist that the main team in Thunderbolts* is not in fact the Thunderbolts, but rather the New Avengers. The New Avengers aren’t the only team with a big future for Thunderbolts* director Jake Schreier either. According to The Wrap, […]

Gather round summer children, Zoomers and Alphas alike, for I want to tell of a long ago time when the multiplexes were full and the choice for big screen comedies plentiful. It was a lost age of laughs and tears, and in the best romantic comedies, you’d get both: a feat always promised, too, by […]

It is supposed to be difficult making new friends after 30. This is a truism so agreed upon that the New York Times regularly runs the same article about it, wistfully reminiscing about the halcyon days of a youth passed by. But that’s not always the case, especially for guys like Austin (Paul Rudd), that […]
