It is a genuinely well-crafted, popular show that any network would surely be happy to have, and host Sean Evans is truly great at what he does....
Cool Runnings Buena Vista Pictures There are some concepts that are just delightful in their absurdity. A Jamaican bobsled team, for example — a sport utterly dependent on snow and ice being mastered in a country with a tropical climate. That’s really all there is to “Cool Runnings.” It’s a one-joke movie, but the joke is funny, and it’s a comedy that luxuriates in a certain good-natured vibe rather than trying to make you laugh uproariously at every turn....
The Boys Is Getting An Animated Anthology Spin-Off Called Diabolical By Jeremy Mathai/Dec. 6, 2021 9:47 am EST New The Boys Spin-Off Announced According to Variety, this series will run for a total of 8 episodes and promises to push the limits even further than “The Boys” has to this point … which is saying a lot, coming from the series that blew up a beached whale and featured the Superman-analogue Homelander falling head over heels for his white supremacist girlfriend, Stormfront....
The Daily Stream: ‘Song Lang’ Is An Exquisite LGBTQ Romance Centered Around A Dying Art Form By Hoai-Tran Bui/June 8, 2021 10:00 am EST I make it my job to find hidden international gems, but I’ll admit that even Song Lang slipped me by. I only watched it because I was moderating a panel on which Leon Le was participating, and was provided with a screener to watch his directorial debut, which he co-wrote with Nguyen Thi Minh Ngoc....
Why It’s Essential Viewing Morgan Creek Entertainment It’s October and we’re all watching scary shows and movies to celebrate Halloween. But if you’re in the mood to laugh and marvel at some ’90s absurdity then look no further than “Stay Tuned.” In 1992, millions of people were glued to their televisions watching Michael Jordan slay the NBA with the Chicago Bulls or checking out “Silence of the Lambs” which won the Academy Award for Best Picture the previous year....
The Dark Rambo Alternate Ending You Likely Haven’t Seen Orion Pictures By Joshua Meyer/Nov. 4, 2021 11:37 am EST The character John Rambo has appeared in five Sylvester Stallone films, and during his heyday as an ’80s action icon, he even had his own animated series and toy line. However, if “First Blood” director Ted Kotcheff had gone with his original plan, Rambo might have been a one-and-done. Quentin Tarantino isn’t the only filmmaker who’s envisioned a Rambo movie that would be closer to David Morrell’s novel, “First Blood....

In this edition: This iconic scene in What Lies Beneath uses a classic scare tactic to catapult the tension to unbearable levels.)Upon release in theaters 20 years ago this week, Robert Zemeckis’ attempt to channel Alfred Hitchcock with his PG-13 supernatural thriller What Lies Beneath failed to impress critics, despite making a strong showing at the box office....

Love them or hate them, Melissa McCarthy movies tend to leave strong impressions on those who watch them. Although the actress is best known for her comedic sensibilities, the next McCarthy film is titled “The Starling” and seems to be eschewing comedy in favor of heartfelt, tear-jerking drama....

Something’s Coming, Something Good 20th Century Studios Justin Peck’s choreography keeps the snap-heavy work of the original front and center while adding new twists, and we’re off like a bang as we watch the Jets, a gang of white kids, strut about the streets of their New York neighborhood. Spielberg has these juvenile delinquents emerge from the rubble like denim-clad creatures come up from the earth. They snap, they spin, they fly, they move through a world that seems completely their own, and completely empty....

Zachary Levi’s Guardians Of The Galaxy Audition Landed Him Shazam Warner Bros. By Joshua Meyer/Nov. 25, 2021 4:35 pm EST Zachary Levi is one of those actors who, like J.K. Simmons and Willem Dafoe, has had a role in both DC and Marvel movies.

Chucky is arguably the most famous, but the list goes on and on, from Talking Tina on The Twilight Zone, to the Zuni Doll in Trilogy of Terror, to the ventriloquist dummies of Dead Silence, and beyond. Now we can add Benny to the list....
Fear Street Opening Scene I loved Fear Street Part 1: 1994, the upcoming Netflix movie that’s a bloody, creepy, very entertaining tribute to the era of Scream. The movie isn’t shy about its many Scream references, even borrowing the Scream formula of immediately opening with a star being targeted by a masked killer. Maya Hawke is the star this time around, playing a mall employee suddenly being chased by a psycho in a Grim Reaper costume....
By Ben Pearson/Sept. 5, 2018 6:30 am EST The last episode of LOST aired on ABC on May 23, 2010. That was more than eight years ago, but people are still fiercely divided about whether or not the mega-popular drama series came to a satisfying conclusion. (For the record, I still love it.) But if you’ve ever been curious to have the LOST finale explained by actress Evangeline Lilly, who played scrappy criminal Kate Austen in all six seasons of the series, you’re in luck: Lilly took the stage at Dragon Con this past weekend and answered a fan question that involved her laying out an excellent interpretation of the show’s controversial ending....
