But if you didn’t make it out to theaters and you’re limiting the number of streaming services you’re subscribed to, you’ll be able to grab Space Jam: A New Legacy on 4K Ultra HD, Blu-ray and DVD starting in October....

‘Suicide Squad’ Explained: Who’s Who In That Comic-Con Trailer? By Angie Han/July 16, 2015 8:00 am EST One of the buzziest trailers to come out of this year’s Comic-Con was Suicide Squad. As Russ put it, the footage teased “a viciously detailed film, with a real eye for keeping things grim and weird.” It won the interest of fans and non-fans alike. Which is all well and good for Warner Bros....

‘The Martian’ Considered Channing Tatum In The Lead Role Instead Of Matt Damon By Hoai-Tran Bui/May 10, 2021 5:30 pm EST Weir continued, “I’m sure the real Channing Tatum is plenty intelligent, but that’s not the kind of character he usually plays. He usually plays either a guy who’s gorgeous, or a guy who’s a badass, or both. But yeah, we got Matt, and Matt did such a fantastic job. He nailed it....

Classic Christmas Movies That Really Didn’t Need Sequels Disney By BJ Colangelo/Nov. 10, 2021 10:10 am EST In some families, like mine for instance, watching Christmas movies is as much of a holiday tradition as opening presents, overeating, and arguing about current events after a few too many glasses of spiked hot chocolate. Christmas movies may hit their watchable peak once a year, but when just about everyone who celebrates the holiday is watching the same rotation of roughly 25 films, that seasonal peak allows a film to survive for generations....

Five Nights At Freddy’s Movie Loses Director Chris Columbus Scott Cawthon By Kaylee Dugan/Sept. 30, 2021 8:35 am EST It’s weird how waiting for the “Five Nights At Freddy’s” movie has felt like an actual level of the game. You’re alone (because so few of your friends care), the night stretches on (by “night” we mean years), and bad news pops up like horrifying animatronic monsters when you least expect it....

The Reitman Legacy Sony Pictures Honestly, it’s not that surprising to hear Reitman say that “Ghostbusters II” is canon, since his own father, Ivan Reitman, directed it. Both Reitmans were on hand in New York recently for the dedication of the Ivan Reitman Cinema, the alternate name of Alamo Drafthouse’s new Lower Manhattan location. Paul Feig directed “Answer the Call,” but otherwise, the “Ghostbusters” series is a family affair, with Ivan Reitman directing the first two films and his son, Jason, the director of “Juno” and “Up in the Air,” taking the reins of “Afterlife....

Ghostbusters Ending Explained And How It Leads To Ghostbusters: Afterlife Sony Pictures By Ethan Anderton/Nov. 4, 2021 10:22 am EST “Ghostbusters: Afterlife” is coming to theaters on November 19, 2021, picking up the original franchise that began with “Ghostbusters” in 1984.

Pretending to be someone else for the length of a movie shoot can let that character into your head, and that’s a little scary when you’re playing someone like the murderous Pennywise the dancing clown from “It.” Actor Bill Skarsgård put on the white and red greasepaint not just once, but twice, for “It: Chapter One” and “It: Chapter Two....

How To Watch ‘Space Jam: A New Legacy’ At Home By Jeremy Mathai/July 13, 2021 11:00 am EST (Welcome to How to Watch, where we get down to brass tacks and tell you “Hey, here’s how you can watch this thing.” In this edition: Space Jam: A New Legacy.) Navigating these unusual times can be strange and unpredictable and even a little scary… and that’s just considering the notion that Space Jam: A New Legacy is actually set to invade our big screens and living rooms very soon....

How Wild Wild West Became One Of The Most Expensive Westerns Of All Time Warner Bros. By BJ Colangelo/Oct. 22, 2021 9:10 am EST I don’t care how many times Will Smith jokes about passing up playing Neo in “The Matrix” in order to star in what he considers his worst movie, “Wild Wild West,” in 1999, that movie blew my little 9-year-old mind. 1999 is one of the best years for movies across all genres....
