Sequel Synopsis: A Quiet Place and Cloverfield Scare Up More Films

People often talk about the superhero dominance in theaters right now. While it is valid to say we’re seeing some of the best comic movies ever, horror is also having a moment. Cerebral thrillers from Get Out to A Quiet Place are redefining the genre, and audiences are rewarding these risk-taking filmmakers. We are unbelievably pumped for Laurie Storde and Michael Myers to meet face to mask again this Halloween. Now,...

New Luke Cage Season 2 Clip Shows Off Super Strength, Speed, and Long Jumping Ability?

You know Luke Cage (Mike Colter) is tough. You know he’s got super strength. You know he’s got unbreakable skin. But did you know he’s also faster than Usain Bolt (his 40-yard dash time is 3.72)? And can beat the world record for the long jump by eleven feet? With these kind of all-around skills, Luke better be careful—he could be getting a call from the Avengers sometime soon. Or, perhaps, an NFL team.

The new clip,...

New Deadpool 2 IMAX Promo Says Go Big or Go Home

Yesterday we shared Deadpool 2‘s Lisa Frank inspired IMAX poster, and now a new IMAX promo has arrived to remind viewers that when it comes to seeing Deadpool in the theater, size does matter.

Like nearly all of the Deadpool promos since the first film bowed, and broke records, in February of 2016, the Merc with the Mouth (Ryan Reynolds) is addressing you directly. “Here’s what I look like on a pathetic regular screen…”...

Watch The Avengers: Infinity War do the Rounds On Late Night

If you were channel surfing last night, you were in for a treat.

Over on The Tonight Show, ...

We shared this adorable Deadpool 2 IMAX poster earlier today, but now its time to show you some footage from the actual film, focused on Zazie Beetz’s mutant assassin Domino—and its glorious.

New Deadpool 2 IMAX Poster Highlights How Its Infinity War‘s Near Polar Opposite

While we’re all understandably talking about Avengers: Infinity Warthere’s another smaller, quieter, more polite superhero movie coming out in a few weeks. Okay, Deadpool 2 is hardly quiet (not when your protagonist’s nickname is the Merc with the Mouth), and it sure as heck isn’t more polite. What Deadpool 2 is, however, is the type of superhero franchise that can release an IMAX poster inspired by Lisa Frank,...

Interview

Director

Cult or Cultural Utopia? The Directors of Wild Wild Country Let Viewers Decide

You would be forgiven for having difficulty placing the term ‘Rajneeshpuram.’ The violent clash between the followers of Indian guru Bhagwan Shree Rajneesh and the residents of Antelope Oregon in the mid-1980s seems like the makings of a famous event, but it has somehow faded from cultural memory. Directors Chapman and Maclain Way admitted the incident did not ring a bell to them either when they began their research for breakout Netflix documentary Wild Wild Country.

“I was born in 1986 and Mac was born in 1990 and neither of us had heard of this story either,” Chapman told us...

Do not fear—this is an Avengers: Infinity War spoiler free zone. The first reactions to the Russo Brothers epic are now pouring in, and they tout one of Marvel’s gutsiest, most gonzo efforts with possibly its best ending, ever.

It was this last bit that would turn out to be the most momentous—in the accident,...

Amy Adams Investigates Chilling Secrets of the Past and Present in Sharp Objects

We have had four years to recover from the twisted psychological torture of Gone Girl, so it is time to subject ourselves to the next onscreen adaptation of a Gillian Flynn novel. Amy Adams stars in Sharp Objects, which runs as deep and jagged as Gone Girl into the psychosis of the human mind. The first trailer for the HBO miniseries is beautifully haunting and appropriately creepy with the added element of a group of young girls who seem…off...
