James Gunn Is Developing Another Dc Project After Peacemaker

James Gunn Is Developing Another DC Project After Peacemaker Warner Bros. By Jeremy Mathai/Oct. 4, 2021 10:59 am EST Few people are able to say they’ve experienced the same sort of career rollercoaster that James Gunn has found himself on in the last few years. Plucked from relative anonymity as he produced schlocky low-budget horror films for Troma, Gunn’s idiosyncratic work on the “Guardians of the Galaxy” movies for Marvel quickly turned him into an in-demand blockbuster filmmaker....

Lady Gaga Spoke With Her House Of Gucci Accent For Nine Months, Refused To Break Character MGM By Jeremy Mathai/Nov. 3, 2021 11:36 am EST She’s off the deep end, watch as she dives in.

Love On The Spectrum Season 2 Trailer Netflix S Surprising Feel Good Dating Series Is Back This Fall

Love On The Spectrum Season 2 Trailer: Netflix’s Surprising Feel-Good Dating Series Is Back This Fall Netflix By Ethan Anderton/Aug. 27, 2021 1:30 pm EST Last year, Netflix surprised everyone by delivering a reality dating show that wasn’t a super horny trash-fest. “Love on the Spectrum” followed a group of young adults on the autism spectrum as they tried to find love. Rather than providing a glimpse into these singles’ lives with a pitiful lens, it shined a charming light on how these men and women from all different backgrounds run into many of the same challenges of those who don’t fall on the autism spectrum, destigmatizing some of the common misconceptions about this frequently misunderstood group of people....

Quentin Tarantino Has Written Two Chapters Of A ‘Reservoir Dogs’ Novelization By Ben Pearson/June 29, 2021 1:11 pm EST Quentin Tarantino’s novelization of Once Upon a Time in Hollywood has been released to the world, and in addition to taking us deeper into his vision of 1969 Los Angeles, it specifically sheds some light on one of that film’s biggest mysteries. Writing that novelization allowed the auteur filmmaker to flex a new creative muscle – and it sounds like he wants to keep exercising that muscle, potentially with adaptations of some of his other movies, including his highly influential breakout movie Reservoir Dogs....

Christopher Pike Paramount+ Ask any Trekkie and they’ll happily tell you that before William Shatner’s Kirk charmed his way into our hearts, “The Original Series” was actually meant to begin with an ambitious pilot titled “The Cage” that revolved around the (mis)adventures of Christopher Pike, played at that time by Jeffrey Hunter. This was ultimately scrapped and the footage was recycled for a later episode in the series once things were more established, but this earlier captain of the USS Enterprise has always played an important role in the background of Kirk & Company’s journeys....

The 15 Best Debut Films From Directors

The 15 Best Debut Films From Directors Libra Films By Liam Gaughan/Aug. 31, 2021 7:49 pm EST A great first film can jumpstart a filmmaker’s career and show the world what makes them unique. For example, the conversational dialogue, ’70s soundtrack, and nonlinear narrative of Quentin Tarantino’s first film “Reservoir Dogs” established tropes that the director still relies on today. Not every great director starts out strong, though. Although he’s one of the greatest filmmakers working today, David Fincher’s career nearly imploded after his disastrous debut, “Alien 3....

The Alternate Return Of The Jedi Ending We’re Glad We Never Had To See Disney By Fatemeh Mirjalili/Dec. 5, 2021 11:59 am EST It might be a little controversial to say this, but “Return of the Jedi,” is one of my favorite films in the “Star Wars” universe. It’s an epic conclusion to the original trilogy and has one of the happiest endings in the film franchise. The Death Star is destroyed, Darth Vader turns back to the light side, and fireworks explode across the galaxy (which is kind of like being at Disneyland, but 10x cooler)....
