Here’s The Dune Moment Director Denis Villeneuve Wishes He Could’ve Included In The Movie Warner Bros. By Ben Pearson/Sept. 3, 2021 5:38 pm EST Director Denis Villeneuve’s upcoming film adaptation of “Dune” includes all sorts of wild imagery from author Frank Herbert’s seminal 1965 science fiction novel: massive sandworms, intricate costumes and weapons, and alien spacecraft that feel unique to the world Herbert created. But there was one element that Villeneuve could not figure out how to incorporate into the final cut of his movie: the baliset....

How ‘Black Widow’ Avoids Tired Tropes Between Natasha And Yelena, According To Scarlett Johansson By Marisa Mirabal/June 15, 2021 5:51 pm EST The hyper-sexualization of women is not a new or foreign concept, especially in Hollywood. However, actresses are speaking up more on the matter and putting their foot down in true superhero fashion since the 2018 #MeToo movement. Most recently, Scarlett Johansson has opened up about the depiction of her character in Marvel’s upcoming film Black Widow and how she hopes the shift in perception will be a positive change....

How The ‘Loki’ And ‘WandaVision’ Finales Set The Stage For The Next Phase Of The MCU By Ethan Anderton/July 14, 2021 9:26 am EST Even though Marvel Studios was forced to take a break from the big screen due to the coronavirus pandemic, it allowed the comic book movie studio to make waves with their new original shows on Disney+. It’s almost a blessing in disguise that Marvel’s movies were pushed back, allowing WandaVision, The Falcon and The Winter Soldier, and Loki to shine....

Malignant Review: James Wan Goes Wild With His Bloody, Bonkers Return To Horror Warner Bros. By Chris Evangelista/Sept. 10, 2021 9:48 am EST A movie that takes big swings is always worth celebrating, and “Malignant,” James Wan’s out-of-control return to horror, takes some of the biggest swings you’ll ever see on film. Wan hasn’t helmed a horror movie since 2016, and returning to the genre has seemingly unhinged him, or at the very least made him dizzy with glee....

By Jamie Gerber/Nov. 7, 2021 11:37 am EST (Welcome to Survey Says, a feature where we conduct a movie-related survey for a random group of people and explain why they’re completely right, completely wrong, or somewhere in-between.) It’s been a rough couple of years at the movies, and though “The Suicide Squad” is the only new DC film releasing in 2021 (not including “Zack Snyder’s Justice League”), fans still have a lot of reasons to be thrilled looking ahead....

How Paramount+ Caused Mass Confusion CBS The confusion comes from the phrasing of Paramount+’s promotion of the Emmys, which was correct in noting the awards ceremony would be available to stream on the app, but failed to mention that the stream was only available for premium subscribers. Most frustrated viewers only learned of the requirement of a premium account after tuning in to watch the 73rd Emmys, and finding out that they couldn’t....

Superhero Bits: Kick-Ass 2, Iron Man 3, Thor: The Dark World, Doctor Strange, Guardians Of The Galaxy, Dark Knight By Germain Lussier/Sept. 21, 2012 3:30 pm EST Where did this amazing Dark Knight promo image come from and where can you see more, including Heath Ledger as The Joker?

Since the episodes debut at 12:00 A.M. PT overnight, that means the finale is already available, and there may already be some spoilers lurking online. We’ll be keeping those well hidden until a decent amount of time has passed, and Marvel Studios hopes you’ll be able to do the same....

The F**king International Version Of The Social Network Movie Trailer By Peter Sciretta/July 19, 2010 2:00 pm EST Last week, Sony released the full length movie trailer for David Fincher’s The Social Network. I’ve just been informed that an international version of the trailer is now online on the international official website. Before you get too excited, I should probably let you know that it’s the same exact trailer as the domestic release in almost every way… except it features the non-modified “Creep” cover by Scala & Kolacny Brothers with the original verses, and yes, with the “f***” in the lyrics....

Tom Holland Pitched Other Spider-Man Ideas During The Brief Marvel/Sony Break-Up Sony Pictures By Shania Russell/Oct. 28, 2021 1:09 pm EST The most traumatic celebrity break-up of our generation came in the form of two multi-billion dollar companies deciding to call it quits. Sad, right? We all remember that fateful summer day when Sony and Marvel endured a brief yet painful break-up. Just a few years after finally striking a deal to bring Spider-Man into the MCU — two movies into his shiny solo journey — the studios announced they were parting ways....

Tony Leung’s Wenwu Is Marvel’s Best Villain Yet — Why This Helps And Hinders Shang-Chi Marvel Studios By Hoai-Tran Bui/Sept. 7, 2021 5:08 pm EST (This article contains spoilers for “Shang-Chi and the Legend of the Ten Rings.”) “Shang-Chi and the Legend of the Ten Rings” made history when it hit theaters this past weekend to a roaring success.

Why You Never Hear Vigo’s Real Voice In Ghostbusters II Columbia Pictures By Sandy Schaefer/Nov. 29, 2021 9:58 am EST “Ghostbusters II” is proof that sometimes the worst thing a sequel to a hit movie can be is “disappointing.” Far from a flop upon its release, director Ivan Reitman’s 1989 followup to his beloved 1984 horror-comedy earned middling reviews and turned a healthy profit while falling well short of its predecessor’s box office gross....

‘Better Call Saul’ Won’t Be Back Until 2022 By Chris Evangelista/Feb. 26, 2021 4:30 pm EST I had such high hopes for 2021, but so far, the new year keeps letting me down. And now to add insult to injury it looks like Better Call Saul season 6 won’t arrive until early 2022. COVID-19 delays are to blame, and while there was some hope that the sixth and final season of the AMC series would arrive before 2021 ended, that’s no longer in the cards....

By Ethan Anderton/March 4, 2021 4:30 pm EST Having not seen Coming 2 America yet, I’m not sure if there’s still a circumcision scene in the movie or if that’s something that got cut entirely. But the idea of The Klumps attending a scene like that in Coming 2 America certainly feels like it would have been a bit too much. While Murphy is outstanding as those characters, it sounds like their appearance would have been a little too forced....

‘Escape Room: Tournament Of Champions’ Spoiler Review: A Fun Time That Won’t Let The Mystery Be By Shania Russell/July 19, 2021 1:53 pm EST B-rated horror movies are cinematic junk food. For every slow-burn drama and genre-bending surprise, it’s nice to cleanse the palette with something easy, clever, and earnestly ridiculous. They come in all shapes and sizes, but their simple premises tend to bubble down to a single, weirdly specific question....
