Let’s be clear, I’m looking forward to catching Zach Snyder’s Rebel Moon and am jazzed to learn that it’s premiering a day earlier – the 21st instead of the 22nd – though I’m not expecting much because it’s based on an idea created by Snyder himself. Though let’s back up for a moment. What was […]
I just watched François Ozon’s Summer of 85 and for the most part enjoyed it, except for two things. The first was when Alexis Robin (Félix Lefebvre) and Kate (Philippine Velge) visited the body of David Gorman (Benjamin Voisin) at the morgue. Here’s where the movie veered dangerously close to slapstick with a really odd […]
Ridley Scott has one of the most distinctive eyes – figuratively speaking – in movies in that if you see one of his films and can pick up on his particular visual tendencies/quirks, you’ll recognize anything else he does. And Prometheus (2012) is no different because it’s a beautiful movie that looks much more expensive […]
Today I learned from The Hollywood Reporter that Warner Bros is offering a 25 pictures Sci-Fi and Horror movie bundle. It contains movies like 2001: A Space Odyssey (1968), Gravity (2013), A Nightmare on Elm Street (1984), It (2017), among many others though what’s worth mentioning is that no matter your preferred application, you’ll likely […]
David Robert Mitchell, the writer and director of It Follows, is planning a sequel. According to The Hollywood Reporter, it’s going to be called They Follow and continue the story of the characters introduced in the first movie. I enjoyed the movie though it confused me why the entity was so inescapable because – while […]
Say what you will about Netflix, you have to admit that they do reality shows right. Their latest is Surviving Paradise – the titular similarity to Survivor I suspect is no coincidence – revolves around 15 people who all have to stay in pretty primitive circumstances, till half of them are lifted up, so to […]
I’m a bit concerned about The Exorcist: Believer because it’s getting some fairly bad reviews (I’ve read only four or five, and none were particularly charitable). Now keep in mind, I’m fond of thinking for myself but at the same time if enough people say something sucks I tend to think they can’t all be […]
According to MacDailyNews, Netflix – along with seemingly every other paid streaming network – will be raising prices, if they haven’t already. This really pisses me off because the solution for American companies is always to raise prices, not ‘maybe we ought to stop paying executives way more money than they’re worth.’ That way they’d […]
I just learned that there’s a Disney+ sale in the United States (the tier with commercials) for $1.99 and I have to admit that I might bite because I’m really curious about Moon Knight. That being said, that price only lasts three months, after which it returns to $7.99. I’ve always been of the opinion […]
When I learned that DC Studios – formerly DC Films – was going to release a Blue Beetle movie (not based on the Ted Kord version of the character, the only one I’m familiar with) I assumed that the movie was DOA. And I still do, except for a bit of uncertainty I like to […]
