For the longest time, the 1978 Star Wars Holiday Special was seen as one of the strangest and most divisive additions to the franchise. And while the LEGO Star Wars Holiday Special does involve some pretty out there scenarios (Rey traveling back in time, Emperor Palpatine trying to change the future, the Max Rebo Band),

As I mentioned, this isn’t stuff that Marvel hasn’t done before, so it’s all above the line in terms of lore. With that being said, comic book sales have been on a steady decline for years, with the fact that characters are frequently rebooted, relaunched or killed being an undeniable factor with some of that.

That’s not to say Netflix and Judd Apatow have always seen eye-to-eye on things. Last year, when word got out that Netflix was experimenting with a “player control,” allowing users to speed up the video, many directors and filmmakers, including Judd Apatow weren’t having it. Judd Apatow took to social media to voice his displeasure

With the outbreak of a global pandemic, the discovery of Murder Hornets, and apparent evidence of real UFOs, I think we can all agree that life has felt a lot like a horror movie lately and the title is 2020. Fortunately, many have found ways of distracting themselves from the madness through entertainment and, if

I commend Blumhouse for how well they casted the new coven in The Craft: Legacy, a sequel to the 1996 cult classic about teenage witches. Also, if you ask me, Zoey Luna gave the standout performance among the four main leads in her first of many memorable feature films, I predict. In fact, I think

While many would agree that (most) Christmas movies are best when reserved for the Christmas season, if you ask me, of all the films set on holidays, Halloween movies are the one kind that can be enjoyed all year long. Just ask any Disney+ subscriber you know how many times they have streamed Hocus Pocus

After decades in the industry, Sylvester Stallone is still one of the busiest stars in Hollywood. The 74-year-old actor just wrapped on his new superhero movie, Samaritan, and is also working on a director’s cut of Rocky IV, which he’s been hyping up for a while. Now, the actor is poised to enter another superhero

I should mention, however, that the corrupt “supes” and (mostly) powerless CIA squadron covertly taking them down in the hit Amazon Prime original, technically, are already DC characters – or once were, at least. Garth Ennis’ comic book series that inspired The Boys was originally a property of the DC-owned brand Wildstorm for its first

Mark Strong (Captain Smith) In the role of Captain Smith, a British officer who offers some world-weary advice to our traveling soldiers, Mark Strong is one of a series of starry cameos seen throughout 1917. An accomplished British actor with several prominent roles in his resume, Strong is best known for the Kingsman movies, Tinker

How To Rent Or Buy Dolittle If you don’t have a cable, satellite, or online television package that gives you access to HBO, or you don’t feel like signing up for a monthly HBO Max subscription, you can purchase a digital copy of Dolittle on services like Amazon, YouTube, and Vudu. None of these sites

Borat Subsequent Moviefilm follows the 2006 cinematic introduction to Sacha Baron Cohen’s hilarious character, which has clearly remained interesting to movie fans with a look at its location of 2020’s biggest streaming wins. Just following the Borat sequel is another exclusive Amazon Prime film, My Spy, a family adventure film starring Dave Bautista. We’re not

Nowadays, it’s hardly uncommon for team-ups to happen in the Marvel Cinematic Universe outside of ensemble pieces like Avengers movies. In Thor’s case, he reunited with Bruce Banner, a.k.a. The Hulk, in Thor: Ragnarok, and earlier this year, Groot voice actor Vin Diesel said that the Guardians of the Galaxy would be involved with Thor:

Who’s Time Traveling In the corner of evil, we have several renegade Borg who have beamed on to the Enterprise-E, just as their Borg Cube is destroyed by Starfleet’s forces. One of their numbers happens to be the Borg Queen (Alice Krige), who plans to assimilate the Enterprise, and eventually the Earth. But standing up

Hmm… we are prepared to disagree, but the humbleness is appreciated. The actor characterized a “legend” as someone who accomplished something especially extraordinary that no one else could do. Let’s say, such as Martin Luther King Jr, Mahatma Gandhi or Albert Einstein. There are many ways to categorize a legend, and in each field has

A little over a year ago, Samantha Barbash filed a lawsuit against STX Entertainment, Gloria Sanchez Productions, and Pole Sisters LLC for a cool $40 million, reportedly claiming that the movie “exploits” her likeness and defames her character. But according to EW, in a major win for the Hustlers production companies, the federal judge ruled

Set in 1970s London, Cruella follows the eponymous character as she rises through the fashion industry and becomes increasingly obsessed with dog skins, especially from Dalmatians. Along with the aforementioned actors, the cast includes Paul Walter Hauser, Joel Fry, Emily Beecham, Kirby Howell-Baptiste and Jamie Demetriou. Tony McNamara and Dana Fox penned the most recent

Warning: spoilers for The Village are in play. If you’ve somehow escaped spoilers for this M. Night Shyamalan film, and want to remain that way, don’t follow us into the woods. A little over 16 years ago, M. Night Shyamalan was on a hot streak, as his career had delivered three solid hits into the

Sean LaRochelle of Napa, California has officially launched himself into the top tier of Disney nerds, as the aspiring architect decided that, since he couldn’t go to Disneyland to ride the park’s oldest roller coaster, he would build his own in his backyard. The Matterhorn – Alpine Escape, as it is officially called, isn’t quite

People Mostly Sort Of Follow The Social Distancing Rules In Line I would describe the behavior of guests at Disney World as mostly fine. Sadly, the world is not filled with exclusively thoughtful people or even just those with self-awareness. Because of that, individual line experiences will vary a lot. I stood in some lines

Strangers doesn’t presently have a release date, as Netflix doesn’t typically reveal those until just a few weeks before a project is set to launch, but stay tuned for more updates on the production (it wouldn’t be too surprising to see the production aim for some notable talent to play the story’s antagonists).

I feel for my friend Zack Snyder. He had a rough time of it, between the struggles with his family and what he went through with Warner Bros. Zack is a sweet, kind, gentle, hard-working, super conscientious human being, and I hope that this release gives him some sense of satisfaction or vindication or whatever

Whether you know her best from her years on NBC’s Friends, her various big-screen titles like Bruce Almighty, Office Space, We’re the Millers, Along Came Polly, The Break-Up, and The Good Girl, to only name a few, or her various tabloid appearances, there’s a good chance that you’re familiar with Jennifer Aniston. The film-TV actress

Again, there have been no confirmations about Millie Bobby Brown’s involvement in the Mighty Morphin Power Rangers reboot, but having a big-name start playing one of the teenagers who morphs into ninja-like warriors could probably bring more people to the theater (if things calm down between now and then). And maybe if this actually happens,

CinemaBlend participates in affiliate programs with various companies. We may earn a commission when you click on or make purchases via links. Being an actor isn’t an easy job. The career comes with a ton of rejections, as various performers vie for the same roles. And when it comes to projects within the MCU or

The question that remains is whether or not this would be an idea to execute now or in a few years. The Ferris Bueller’s Day Off trio is not quite in their 70s yet; Ruck is the oldest at 64 years old, while Broderick and Sara are 58 and 53, respectively. There are amazing things

Nitro In fact, while we are at it, there are plenty of other currently uncast, white-haired Marvel villains we could throw out whom Timothy Olyphant is a winning choice for. For instance, there is Robert Hunter – a Scranton, Pennsylvania, native (and there is our connection to The Office) who was genetically altered by a

The Devil All The Time (2020) It is rare that we see Tom Holland play dark and psychologically broken characters these days, which is what makes his portrayal of Arvin Eugene Russell in the 2020 Netflix thriller The Devil All The Time such a wild departure for the Marvel star. And yeah, the movie can

In the opening of the book, McConaughey lists the “few scars” he’s earned over the years. It’s there where he states that at the age of 15 he was blackmailed into having sex for the first time and molested by a man while knocked out unconscious in the back of a van when he was

Blind Fury (1989) Whenever someone asks for a recommendation for an insane campy ’80s action movie, the answer should always be Blind Fury. Haven’t seen it? Well… the movie stars Rutger Hauer as a Vietnam war vet by the name of Nick Parker who was blinded by a mine in the jungle and was later
