Remember when I wrote that Walter Hamada wasn’t long for the head of DC Films last September? I was right because while I didn’t name the circumstances under which he would leave the post, leave it he did and from the outside looking in it’s fairly obviously why: He had no idea what he was […]
What is it about filmmakers that makes them continue to make movies that are supposedly about actual human beings, where they adopt hideous dolls or, in the case of M3gan, create equally hideous automatons that it goes without saying are going to try to kill them at some point? Do you remember 2014’s Annabelle? In […]
I really wanted to love Hulu’s reboot/relaunch/continuation of Clive Barker’s Hellraiser and while there were many pleasures to be found – for instance, Ben Lovett’s music and Eli Born’s cinematography – there was one problem that I found to be unforgivable, virtually a cardinal sin as far as relaunching anything goes. And that’s knowing when […]
Of course I’m being facetious because Damien Leone’s Terrifier is the sort of movie that a lot of adults might have difficulty with, never mind children; which is a pity because it’s really hilarious. The movie revolves around a clown named Art who seemingly kills for no other reason than it’s what he enjoys doing […]
According to The Hollywood Reporter, Bassam Tariq is no longer helming Marvel Studios’ reboot of Blade. Interestingly, an actual reason was given him leaving the project (a scheduling conflict, which likely had to do with meeting the November 23, 2023 release date, as opposed to the virtually meaningless ‘creative differences’). Though one sign that Tariq […]
When I woke up this morning one of the first things I read was a story on Buzzfeed about the racism Caleb McLaughlin (Stranger Things) was encountering from the series’ fandom and while none of that should have been a surprise – he’s a darker-skinned male in the United States, racism/sexism/nativism/whatever -ism you want – […]
I watch a lot of movies (which isn’t a humble brag because that would be weird) and while I don’t typically find a lot of stuff I hate – which isn’t to say that it don’t exist though I usually won’t sit though it to discover the true depths of it’s awfulness – I also […]
Earlier today the official trailer for Hulu’s Hellraiser dropped, and it features a FEMALE Pinhead! I emphasize that because that’s what the trailer does and I find it confusing because there never been anything intrinsically male about Pinhead – beyond being played by a male actor – in that I could see the character easily […]
In case you’re wondering, David Zaslav is still looking for someone to act as the ‘Kevin Feige’ for DC Films and apparently it isn’t going to be Walter Hamada (and based on his tenure thus far that’ should be fairly obvious’s probably a wise decision). My question is why aren’t they looking for someone who’s […]
As you’re probably aware, Netlfix’s has already canceled Resident Evil after a single season. And that really cheeses me off because Sony somehow managed to keep making Resident Evil movies even when every movie after the first sucked (now that I think about it even the first wasn’t that great though it was at least […]
