Friends, I’ve said it before and I’ll say it again: the 2024 movie schedule truly was the year of the popcorn bucket. And just when I thought we’d seen our final surprise with that gothic Nosferatu popcorn bucket, Disney came in to surprise us all. I certainly didn’t have a Mufasa: The Lion King replica

Without having seen it myself, it’s starting to sound like one of the most shocking projects on the 2024 movie schedule might be director Halina Reijn’s Babygirl. Considering how star Nicole Kidman still blushes over the picture, that label seems to be pretty well-earned. However, now we don’t have to take her word for it,

Mike Myers has played many unforgettable characters over his career, from Wayne Campbell in the Wayne’s World sketch from Saturday Night Live and two follow-up movies, to Austin Powers (and he’s indicated Austin Powers 4 could still happen). But for more than 20 years now, there’s a generation that arguably knows him best as the

When it comes to The Lion King remake, there were slight differences between the 2019 version and the original in terms of song lyrics and plot changes. But one big difference is not seeing our favorite characters in traditional 2D animation form, but in CGI. While there’s been a long-standing debate on whether or not

Jared Leto accomplished a feat back in 2014 that so many actors dream of achieving. For his exemplary performance as Raymond Rayon in Dallas Buyers Club, the 30 Seconds to Mars musician won Best Supporting Actor at the 86th Academy Awards. But after experiencing unfortunate luck by literally losing his Oscar statuette, he revealed it

When it comes to casting the new Harry Potter series HBO is making, every role comes with a heavy weight, because the characters and actors who played them in the original films are beloved. However, recently, Voldemort actor Ralph Fiennes was asked who should play The Dark Lord in the new adaptation of J.K. Rowling’s

Performing for a camera is far different than performing for a live audience. I mean, that seems like a no-brainer. Any kind of entertainment not done live is always polished to perfection, whether it be for a movie, TV show or music video. If anything is shot live, there’s a distinct kind of fear, because

With Daniel Craig making waves on the 2024 movie schedule through his Queer performance, the actor has also been taking the time to deconstruct his time as 007. With the James Bond movies officially in the rear view, the typically frank Craig has given even more insight into his view on the role and how

First, I want to apologize for taking so long to finally watch Lisa Frankenstein. You know how it goes – tons of movies released on the 2024 movie schedule, and it’s sometimes hard to keep up with every single one of them, but Zelda Williams’ Lisa Frankenstein was on my list, especially since the story

For the better part of a year, Ben Affleck’s relationship with Jennifer Lopez has been making headlines, as insiders alleged that there was marital strife between the two. That all came to a head in August when Lopez filed for divorce. Since then, the celebrity partners have rarely been seen spending time together. Most recently,

Since the mid-1980s when hip-hop fully entered the popular culture, filmmakers have been including dope beats and great rhymes in the soundtracks of their movies, creating some of the best soundtracks of all time. Just as hip-hop hasn’t faded, nor has the use of it in movies over the last four-plus decades. Here are some

After Tom Cruise’s long-awaited Top Gun sequel became a monumental hit in 2022, it was only natural that the world would ask “When’s the next one?” Fans seem eager to see the stunt-defying star and the rest of the Maverick cast back on the big screen. We’ve heard from actors like Glen Powell, Jennifer Connelly

I’ve always been a huge fan of scary movies, and I’ve seen most of the best horror movies. However, one area that I feel I’m sorely lacking in is with old, Universal horror movies. I’ve seen Frankenstein and Dracula, but I’m sad to say that I’ve never seen The Mummy, The Invisible Man, or Creature

My friends and readers, James Bond movies will return to a theater near us. It’s only a matter of time until they do. The world is too excited about what we know about James Bond 26 to let the subject go. While we wait for the latest news and updates on that very subject, I’d

SPOILERS for Wicked: Part 1 are ahead! Also, I don’t dive into what happens in Act 2 of the musical – so, you are safe from those here. If you haven’t seen the film yet, you can catch it in theaters now. I grew up watching The Wizard of Oz; I played it on repeat

When Lewis Pullman joined the cast of Top Gun: Maverick he was in for an experience unlike any other. While Tom Cruise himself is known for always doing his own stunts, Cruise made sure that everybody who flew did the same. They went to school to learn how to fly so that the action could

After writer/director Damien Chazelle made two of the most critically acclaimed movies of the 2010s, it felt like a big-budget follow-up starring Brad Pitt and Margot Robbie would be a shoo-in for a box office and critical success. However, that was very much not the case with 2022’s Babylon. The movie earned mixed reviews from

Disney is known for its beloved animated blockbuster movies, including golden era titles like Beauty and The Beast and The Lion King. But there’s also been some great modern classics in recent years, including Frozen, Encanto, and Moana (all of which are streaming with a Disney+ subscription). The latter’s sequel just arrived in theaters, and
