It seems movies based on video games are still incredibly hot despite the fact that most would agree that we haven’t had a truly great one quite yet. There have been some good ones, but there has yet to be a movie that’s done for video games what X-Men and Spider-Man did for comic books.

While John Krasinski hasn’t retired from the acting game, as evidenced by him still leading the Amazon series Jack Ryan, he’s also been making a name for himself as a filmmaker through the Quiet Place movies. Now Krasinski is turning his attention to directing IF, previously known as Imaginary Friends, which we already knew had
Disney Genie+, the add on service that provides line skipping capabilities on rides at Walt Disney World and Disneyland Resort, for a fee, has been met with mixed reviews since its launch last year. Some aspects of the service work well for some guests, while others don’t find it to be worth the money. But
Creative liberties come with the territory when it comes to adapting stories. In the case of David Fincher’s Fight Club, the ending of his movie differed greatly from what happened at the end of Chuck Palahniuk’s original novel, though it arguably retained the same spirit. However, the same can’t be said for a version of Fight
Ghostbusters: Afterlife was a movie that relied heavily on nostalgia for the original franchise. While many of the film’s references to the original 1986 movie were overt connections to the plot, there were also a lot of easter eggs and other references that were really just there to entertain the fans, which is not to
Watching Dwayne Johnson stunt and smolder on the big screen, after years of grueling careers in football and professional wrestling, one might be tempted to think that the man known in the WWE as The Rock is indestructible. But Johnson has actually had to deal with a number of injuries over the years that could
With the world becoming more and more of a place where social media and online content determine public perception, celebrities, and people in general, are starting to be pretty careful about what they post online. One of the ways many people are doing this is by keeping their children’s faces off their digital accounts. Katherine
After becoming a huge name for playing Mary Jane Watson in the Spider-Man trilogy, Kirsten Dunst has primarily gravitated toward offbeat, independent films and that trend will continue with her next project. The actress has signed on to be in Alex Garland’s next film, the writer/director behind one of the best science fiction movies in
One of the most polarizing topics within our society right now would have to be cancel culture, as many argue that it’s starting to become a social norm when it comes to celebrities. Noted pop star Sia, who you may know from her signature exaggerated blonde and black hairstyle that’s used to hide her face,
A lot of franchise conventions were challenged in Daniel Craig’s final James Bond outing, the explosive finale known as No Time To Die. Adding to the sweeping changes in dynamic was, naturally, the role of Léa Seydoux’s Dr. Madeleine Swann being brought back to draw further dramatic contrast between the modern era of 007 and
The Shrek 4-D movie is gone from Universal Orlando Resort, but the Shrek franchise is still going strong inside the parks because Donkey is still there and Donkey is still talking some serious smack to the guests. Last week Donkey went off on somebody who wore Minnie Mouse ears inside Universal. And now he’s back
Disney has recently made it a habit of going back over almost every one of its animated films and remaking them in live-action settings. They have been big hits just about across the board, especially with The Lion King, Aladdin and Beauty and the Beast, which were major blockbusters. The trend now continues with a
Disney’s Hollywood Studios underwent a massive transformation a few years back that resulted in not one but two new lands with both Toy Story Land and Star Wars: Galaxy’s Edge. However, both lands opened being quite a bit less than they perhaps could have been. Galaxy’s Edge was in much better shape once Rise of
If Brian Cox’s time on Succession doesn’t give the actor a ruthless enough image already, the 75-year-old actor recently took shots at an actor still near and dear to many people: Johnny Depp. During a recent interview, the award-winning actor called Depp “so overblown” and “so overrated,” as well as called out a couple of
Picture the illuminated tapestry of the crudely macadamized cemented asphalt that separates the invisible boarder of Queens and Brooklyn known as Cypress Avenue. The neighborhood aligned with brick stoops, fire escapes and the sound of the “L” in the background was the scene for author and poet Mike Figliola to brilliantly pen an evocative illustration
It seemed like Tyler Perry’s time as Madea had ended after A Madea Family Funeral was released in 2019. Perry proved that by taking on varying roles while working on and pushing out an unlimited supply of television shows. But he reconsidered his stance after announcing a new film starring the foul-mouthed, gun-toting grandmother. After
Usually journalists do not tend to type “cold weather” and “Florida” in the same sentence, but this week it has, in fact, been happening. Following a cold streak that led Disney World’s Typhoon Lagoon to shut down just shortly after it opened, Universal Orlando followed suit with its own water park, Volcano Bay. Over the
Stop me if you’ve heard this but Disney fans are more than a little obsessive. When Disney, and especially Disney Parks, releases limited edition merchandise, you can be sure there will be plenty of people looking to get their hands on it. Demand is so high that many of those that do get a hold
There are few franchises that can claim to be home to more than just one or two action stars, and The Expendables probably holds one of the top spots for most action icons that can be found in one place. The Expendables 4 will be no different with legends like Sylvester Stallone, Jason Statham, and
Drew Barrymore and Courteney Cox have been pals for a pretty long time. Despite their eleven year age difference, the duo has been thick as thieves ever since they were cast in the original 1996 Scream. Drew Barrymore even felt comfortable enough to confide in Courteney Cox during a poster shoot for Scream, where she
