Pennywise is Back: New Photos From the set of It
Director Andy Muschietti’s Instagram page has kept fans in the loop on his progress on It, his adaptation of Stephen King’s seminal horror novel starring Pennywise the Clown, the child-eating monster that is one of King’s most grotesque, and compelling, villains. Per usual in a King story, the action takes place in small town Maine (Derry, to be precise), where every 30 years a nameless monster appears in the sewer system and, voila, children go missing...
Godzilla: Monster Planet is Coming to Netflix
The Godzilla franchise holds the Guinness World Record for “Longest continuously running film franchise.” 63 years after the original Godzilla, fans still can’t get enough of the monster.
Godzilla: Monster Planet is now the latest in the series and pushes Toho, the Japanese production company responsible for the original 1953 film, to 30 total Godzilla films. It also makes history as the first entirely animated film of the franchise,...

Which Robot was the First to Have Free Will in Westworld?
After a long production schedule and some delays, once Jonathan Nolan and Lisa Joy Nolan's Westworld’s premiered on HBO, millions of us were more or less immediately hooked. The story of synthetic androids (called “Hosts”) who entertain the rich guests at the Western-themed amusement park known as Westworld struck a nerve. Unlike Michael Crichton's original, in this Westworld, the humans were the villains. The guests paid top dollar in order to live out their dreams and fantasies,...
Jack Sparrow’s Being Hunted in new Pirates of the Caribbean: Dead Men Tell No Tales Preview
We’ve said it before and we’ll say it again—you can’t do a better job of casting your main villain than snagging Javier Bardem. The man who made Anton Chigurh one of the truly great monsters in 21st century cinema in the Coen Brothers No Country for Old Men is playing Captain Salazar—a ghost sailor who, wouldn’t you know, has a major beef with a certain Captain Jack Sparrow (Johnny Depp) in Pirates of the Caribbean: Dead Men Tell No Tales...
Watch the Extended Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 2 TV Spot
Tickets are now on sale for Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 2, which is the ostensible point of this new, extended TV spot. We’d like to think that along with that crucial information, the spot also emphasizes what made the original such a hit—a Deadpool-like irreverent streak mixed with some actual emotions. Whether our heroes are mocking each other or risking their lives for one another, the new teaser proves that they’re together,...
Check out the new Justice League Trailer
As promised, Justice League dropped their full-length trailer this weekend, an epic two-and-a-half-minute glimpse at Zack Snyder’s big DC ensemble film. Batman (Ben Affleck) and Wonder Woman (Gal Gadot) go rounding up the other members of the team to help fight off an attack that Wonder Woman promises is already here. You know the squad: Arthur Curry/ Aquaman (Jason Momoa), Victor Stone/Cyborg (Ray Fisher), and Barry Allen/The Flash (Ezra Miller)...
Watch Vin Diesel Drive a Flaming car in Fate of the Furious Clip
No matter what type of vehicle you give him, and no matter what condition its in (this includes being airborne, say, released from the back of a cargo plane), Dom Toretto (Vin Diesel) can handle it. The Fast & Furious franchise has thrown every conceivable vehicular challenge at Dom and he’s met them all. In the latest clip from The Fate of the Furious, Dom is driving a vintage 1950s junker through the streets of Havana…...
How Star Wars: The Last Jedi is Approaching Carrie Fisher’s Death
It was a devastating blow when Carrie Fisher passed away last December. Fisher meant so much to so many people, from Star Wars fans to the millions of people she touched with her books, screenplays, and her many, many great roles throughout the years. Her last role was, of course, a return to the very character that had made her an international superstar—Princess Leia. Fisher had already returned (now as General Organa) in J.J. Abrams Star Wars: The Force Awakens,...
Watch Batman & the Flash in new Justice League Teasers
Yesterday we shared Aquaman’s new teaser for Zack Snyder’s Justice League, which is one of five that Warner Bros. will be releasing before the full trailer this Saturday. Today, we’ve got two more to show you—Ben Affleck’s Batman and Ezra Miller’s Flash.
While only 15 seconds long apiece, the teasers give us a little taste of what’s to come, the first Avengers-sized ensemble piece for DC, showcasing five of their most iconic properties (six,...
Check out the new Poster for Alien: Covenant
A while back, we interviewed Swiss documentarian Belinda Salin on her film Dark Star: H.R. Giger’s World. Giger is perhaps most famous in the United States as the man who helped Ridley Scott create the terrifying xenomorph from Alien, arguably one of the most famous movie monsters of all time. Ridley Scott was shown Giger’s “Necronomicon,” a book of Giger images that led to Scott giving him the job as a conceptual artist for the film...
Watch the New Justice League Trailer Teaser
Folks, a new trailer for Justice League is coming this Saturday, March 25, teased in this tasty little 15-second spot that was released on the Today Show this morning.
The star of this teaser is Jason Momoa’s Aquaman, who shows off his superpowers in a brief but potent little sequence. We then get a glimpse, blink-quick, of the whole team (sans a certain someone in a red cape) as they prepare to do battle...
Ewan McGregor Sees Double in First Trailer for Fargo Season 3
We’ve been waiting for a glimpse of Fargo Season 3 ever since we got a load of this season’s sensational cast. The marquee addition was Ewan McGregor, who will be playing twin brothers Ray and Emimitt Stussy (each with different accents and having lead very different lives). Then there’s Scoot McNairy, playing a sketchy pal of Ray’s. Finally, we were super pumped about the inclusion of David Thewlis, playing the dentally challenged villain V. M. Vargas...
Is Michael Shannon Going to be Cable in Deadpool 2?
Michael Shannon is one of the best character actors working. If you put him in a movie, he’s likely going to steal every scene he’s in. This was even the case when he worked with two of the biggest stars on the planet, Leonardo DiCaprio and Kate Winslet. Now DiCaprio and Winslet gave great performances in Revolutionary Road, and it wasn’t at all their fault that when Shannon walked in, as their neighbor’s mentally ill son,...
The 1st Pic of Luke Skywalker Ever + The Last Jedi News
Mark Hamill’s Twitter feed is a cornucopia of jokes, political musings, deep thoughts and, occasionally, great snippets from Star Wars past and present. His latest offering is a gem—possibly the very first photo ever taken him as Luke Skywalker.
Taken in Tunisia early morning Day #1 waiting for my 1st shot (emerging from home for robot auction)-Perhaps the very 1st #LukePic #SW
Meanwhile, there’s just a little itsy bitsy piece of news from Star Wars: The Last Jedi,...
Love Actually Short Film Sequel Drops Trailer
You’ve likely seen the 2003 romantic comedy Love Actually at least once, and possibly, oh, ten times. Director Richard Curtis and his ensemble cast of lovable Brits (and Laura Linney) captured the hearts of a generation of moviegoers. Who didn’t cheer the handsome Prime Minister (Hugh Grant) falling for a young staffer (Martine McCutcheon)? Who wasn’t charmed by an aging rocker’s (Bill Nighy) realization that his lifelong love was his put-upon manager (Gregor Fisher)? Hell, the film became such a cultural touchstone,...

Pixar fans, rejoice. The animation powerhouse is piling on a new animated short to add to its already famous collection.
Pixar debuted a new poster Tuesday to tease its upcoming animated short, Lou.

Per Pixar’s website, “When a toy stealing bully ruins recess for a playground full of kids,...
Watch the First Five Minutes of Ghost in the Shell
We've been impressed with what we've seen thus far from Rupert Sanders' Ghost in the Shell. We’ve seen the practical effects that Weta Workshop created to make those incredible robotic geisha masks that have been one of the most talked about images from the trailers. We've watched in awe at the creation of the iconic "shelling" sequence, where Scarlett Johansson's The Major is created. Pretty much every new spot boasts images and sequences that show how hard Sanders and his team have worked to honor the original magna series and Mamoru Oshii’s 1996 animated feature...
