‘Star Trek: Discovery’ Review: “Despite Yourself” Is A Shocking, Heartbreaking Return By Monique Jones/Jan. 8, 2018 9:00 am EST I don’t normally curse in my everyday life, but the first thought that came to my mind after viewing the Star Trek: Discovery’s midseason opener was: “Goddamn it!” I’m usually a human Vulcan, but this time, this Vulcan’s about to lose her s***. Here’s why. Naturally, major spoilers begin immediately. Grappling with that shocking death...

By Vanessa Armstrong/Sept. 21, 2021 2:19 pm EST The DC Extended Universe is behind the Marvel Cinematic Universe in a lot of things, including the number of movies out there.

Love for the Audience IndieWire also quotes from an essay that Villeneuve wrote for Variety last December. This essay came hot on the heels of the bombshell announcement from Warner Bros. that it would be giving its entire 2021 movie slate a simultaneous theatrical/HBO Max release. Villeneuve was one of the high-profile filmmakers who was blindsided by the announcement. Dune is a Warner Bros. picture. It only covers the first half of Frank Herbert’s novel and was supposed to be the first of two movies, so Villeneuve and his planned sequel have a lot riding on its commercial success....

Dan Aykroyd’s Original Ghostbusters Script Was Vastly Different Colombia Pictures By Lee Adams/Nov. 1, 2021 1:51 pm EST “If there’s something strange, in your neighborhood, who you gonna call? Ghost…smashers??” Yes, “Ghost Smashers” was the not-so-catchy title of Dan Aykroyd’s first draft that would go on to become the 1984 supernatural comedy hit, “Ghostbusters.” Ivan Reitman’s blockbuster became a pop culture phenomenon and remains a perennial favorite today, yet it could have been a very, very different movie if Aykroyd’s original concept had made it to the big screen....
Early Twitter Buzz: Star Trek Has Secret Premiere In Austin By Peter Sciretta/April 6, 2009 9:47 pm EST Paramount pulled a MASSIVE bait and switch with tonight’s Alamo Drafthouse’s screening of Wrath of Kahn on Monday night.
