The Final Episodes of Game of Thrones Will be Movie-Like
We’ve known for quite a while now that the final six episodes of Game of Thrones would be longer than average. We’ve known that because the shortened season involves the largest battle the show has ever filmed, and there’s no way they’d try to cram that into six normal-sized episodes. You don’t spend 55-days shooting likely the largest battle ever produced for television and then not use your considerable clout to get HBO to agree to longer-than-normal episodes.
The Game of Thrones Zombie Polar Bear Was Filmed Using a Flaming Wire Frame

M. Night Shyamalan’s Unbreakable came out in 2000, and to get the movie made, the director deliberately billed it as a film about anything other than superheroes. Nineteen years on, a slew of superhero films have erupted from Hollywood, and they are by and large nothing like Shyamalan’s trilogy, which also includes 2016’s Split, and now, Glass. Is this final chapter even a superhero movie?

The Lego Movie 2 Has an Even Catchier Song than ‘Everything is Awesome’
The Lego Movie was a totally surprising, clever, and fresh take on THE toy that has defined all of our childhoods. The plot was adorable and the characters were so dang likable. However, it is impossible to think about the film without thinking of the hit movie that emerged with it. Yes, in Bricksburg ‘Everything is Awesome,’ but will that be the case in The Lego Movie 2: The Second Part?
How Godzilla: King of the Monsters Pays Homage to the Original
Krampus has become one of my favorite films and one of the highlights was absolutely the creature building. The attic toy attack was a gruesome burst of creativity and the Christmas demon himself was fearsome and mesmerizing. That’s why I was thrilled to hear director Michael Dougherty would be helming the next installment of Godzilla: King of the Monsters.
The franchise is picking directors on the rise and giving a few different creators a shot at the atomic lizard.

Halle Berry is John Wick’s Sole Protector in Parabellum Trailer
I feel powerful. It is John Wick (Keanu Reeves) against the world in the first trailer for Parabellum and his incredible focus and drive are very motivating. Also, I have never loved the use of Andy Williams’ The Impossible Dream more and man, have I loved it in my lifetime.
This might be one of the most exciting trailers released in recent years. The hunt is on for the hitman on the run and there appears to be only one person,
Know Before You Go: Five Things to Prepare You to See Glass
When M. Night Shyamalan released Unbreakable in 2000, it was initially met with confusion. The horror movie master had released a film with two of the day’s biggest stars, but it wasn’t typical scare fare. The thriller was deeply disturbing, but without things going ‘boo,’ the genius of Shyamalan’s approach was missed. In the years that followed, fans became more appreciative of the hidden surprises, but it really wasn’t until 2016 that things became as clear as,
Oscar Watch: Black Panther Co-Editor Michael Shawver on the key to Cutting Fight Scenes
Editor Michael Shawver goes way back with writer/director Ryan Coogler. In fact, he edited Coogler’s first two films, his 2013 breakout film Fruitvale Station, and his deft resurrection of the Rocky franchise with 2015’s Creed. His work on Creed turned out to be the perfect training for his next Coogler project; the epic, game-changing Black Panther.
Shawver’s gut—and keen eye—led him to feel very connected to the hand-to-hand combat scenes that took place at Warrior Falls.

Jason Reitman to Direct new Ghostbusters Following Original Film’s Storyline
“Who you gonna call? Ghostbusters!” The rumors are true: a new Ghostbusters film is coming to a theater near you. What’s even better: this chapter will be set in the same world fans of the 1984 original fell in love with.

A Grieving Detective Drives the Action in Film Noir State Like Sleep

Like Katherine, she moved from the United States to Belgium to live with a highly secretive partner. And like Katherine, Danluck rushed to a Brussels hospital after her mother suffered a stroke. Now currently available on Digital, On Demand, and in select theaters, State Like Sleep may draw many of its plot points from Danluck’s adult life but one of its most offbeat sequences comes straight out of a movie she saw at the age of seven.
