While many of us grow up wishing to be famous, there’s a definite downside to that level of notoriety, especially when one’s personal struggles become a public matter. Johnny Depp and Amber Heard know this all too well, as their battle in court was televised and made countless headlines. And Depp seemingly alluded to the

When it comes to Florence Pugh’s best fashion moments over the years, many instances have included the Dune Part Two actress going for it in a sheer look that has definitely led to chatter about her on the red carpet. Last week, Pugh even got real about how internet comments about her body have affected
While the majority of filmmakers who make Stephen King movies have a history of being one and done, there is a special list of names who have had much more significant impacts on the history of adaptations. This is a list that includes George A. Romero, Mick Garris, Rob Reiner, Frank Darabont, and Mike Flanagan,
When Stephen King novels get adapted as feature films, the name of the game is always compression. Even the longest of the long King movies (Frank Darabont’s 189 minute adaptation of The Green Mile and Mike Flanagan’s 180 minute director’s cut of Doctor Sleep) feature composite characters and skip over subplots from their source material.
Chris Evans is famous for many things: being one of People’s Sexiest Men Alive, a top contender among Hollywood’s best Chrises, and, of course, if you’ve watched the Marvel movies in order, you know him for playing Captain America across 11 Marvel films. But did you know he’s also known for something a bit more
There has been a lot of talk in recent years about the importance and value of “the theatrical experience.” If there is one thing that Francis Ford Coppola’s Megalopolis does right, it reminds one that there is nothing quite like the theatrical experience, especially when watching one of the most unique pieces of cinema in
Keenan “Special” Bristol, CEO and Founder of “Music Brings Life”, proudly presents a heartwarming film dedicated to bringing awareness of the shortage of blood donations for victims facing sickle cell disease by African-American, Latino and Caribbean donors. The movie is entitled “Students Are Heroes: A Sickle Cell Warrior’s Story.” Students Are Heroes Film Synopsis: The narrative
The horror genre has been thriving for years now, to the delight of fans like myself. Some of the best horror movies returned to theaters with new sequels, including the Scream franchise. The last two movies (which can be streamed with a Paramount+ subscription) were released in quick succession, and a seventh slasher is currently
The desire to change one’s less-than-perfect attributes has long been a staple for fictional plotting, and is at the heart of several 2024 features – such as Demi Moore’s body horror tour de force The Substance and Netflix’s YA novel adaptation Uglies. But no film, TV series or workplace instructional video has taken the concept
Celebrity couples have a way of making headlines, just look at Taylor Swift and Travis Kelce. One high profile pair that’s been turning heads lately is Ben Affleck and Jennifer Lopez, who are splitting up after months of online speculation. Some folks have been wondering why Affleck and Lopez are playing so nice, and an
One thing (of many) that I love about Hispanic Heritage Month is the focus on just how diverse and eclectic “Hispanic Heritage” actually is. Case in point: the absolute legend that is Robert Rodriguez. His projects are both inherently Mexican, but also universal in a way that very few other filmmakers can truly capture. And,
Everybody has their own favorite Napoleon Dynamite quote. Co-writer and director Jared Hess’ instant high school movie classic from 2004 has gone down in history as one of the most hilariously quotable comedies of its time and, two decades later, fans are still telling people to “vote for Pedro” or to “bow to your sensei!”
Look, I love Adam Sandler. You love Adam Sandler. We all love Adam Sandler! So, why was I so shocked to discover then that my students, who are all around the age of 12, also love Sandler? This all came about because several of them interrupted my class to ask me if I knew that
There’s something funny about grief, and A Real Pain captures it perfectly. The film, written and directed by Jesse Eisenberg, is about two cousins — played by Eisenberg and Kieran Culkin — taking a trip to Poland to visit their late grandmother’s old home. This movie, which I saw at the New York Film Festival,
Saturday Night Live’s 50th season’s place on the 2024 TV schedule was already exciting, especially with another presidential election for the NBC series to help make light of, but the anticipation rose a ton this week when the hosts and musical guests for the first five shows were announced. Ariana Grande is among the hosts,
For many of us, the sound of Disney songs brings in an instant air of nostalgia for our childhoods. And when you look back at the best Disney animated movies (along with some live-action and Pixar) from the House of Mouse’s one-hundred-year history, there are a ton of genuinely hilarious song lyrics. Check out which
When it comes to upcoming horror movies, one of this year’s best may be hitting theaters this weekend, with Demi Moore’s body horror flick The Substance causing quite a stir amongst critics since its premiere at Cannes. The actress bares it all in the movie, but Moore says it’s not about the nudity. In fact,
Beetlejuice Beetlejuice’s release may have passed on the 2024 movie schedule, but Jenna Ortega is still serving Beetlejuice…whoops I just said his name three times! However, that’s OK, because instead of Michael Keaton’s demon appearing, his co-star, Ortega, has popped up in the most on-theme black and white striped look. While the Beetlejuice Beetlejuice press
After some sporadic returns to moviemaking amidst her divorce from Brad Pitt, cinematic icon Angelina Jolie is making quite the return with some 2024 movies. Reflecting on her tumultuous split, and the unfortunate ramifications, the Academy Award winner has had a lot of time to discuss on just how Hollywood has changed during the span
Halle Berry has had a lot of different hairstyles in her best movies whether it’s Storm’s signature white hair from the live-action X-Men movies or her short ‘do seen in Die Another Day and The Flintstones. But it’s hard to forget the viral bad wig she wore playing a 911 call center agent in The
It was exciting news to find out The Devil Wears Prada is getting the on-screen sequel treatment. With Andy Sachs’ journey continuing in Lauren Weisberger’s books and the positive reception of the Golden Globe Award-winning film, it seemed inevitable we’d see our favorite characters returning once again. While Emily Blunt confirmed herself to be reprising
Christopher Nolan’s Oppenheimer was one of the biggest films of 2023, having an insane box office haul and winning several Academy Awards. The flick delved deep into the life of J. Robert Oppenheimer and the creation of the atomic bomb. However, Nolan deliberately chose not to focus on: the devastating aftermath of the nuclear bombings
Director Alexandre Aja’s Never Let Go is a balancing act. The audience is told up front that this is a story full of fantastical nightmares… but is it? The source of this information is questionable in terms of both motive and sanity, which eats away at trust, but consequences for losing faith are extreme. It’s
Pixar struck gold again earlier this year with Inside Out 2, a film that raked in $1.6 billion worldwide, blowing past the previous 2024 box office champs, Dune: Part Two and even breaking Top Gun: Maverick’s impressive milestone, making it one of the most successful animated movies of all time. While the film’s success should
Halloween season is nearly here, and fans of upcoming horror movies can expect more than just jump scares and scary flicks this October. Cinemark Theatres has unveiled its latest collectible popcorn buckets, featuring two of horror’s most legendary horror villains—Pennywise from IT and Chucky from Child’s Play. These limited-edition buckets hit theaters just in time
Nearly 40 years ago, Beetlejuice burst onto the big screen and, while it’s now hailed as a bonafide classic and one of the best ’80s movies, its debut wasn’t all smooth sailing. While the OG Ghost with the Most is now considered one of Tim Burton’s best movies now, at the time, some critics downright
Saturday Night Live’s history is long, storied and well-documented, plus many of the comedians who worked on the show – including members of the original 1975 cast – are still working. However, when it came time for Dylan O’Brien to prep his take on Dan Aykroyd for the film about SNL’s origins, he did basically
For nearly 40 years, Goonies fans have been waiting for news about a potential sequel to one of the best ’80s movies. While the 1985 adventure classic, in retrospect, might not have been an appropriate flick by today’s standards, its charm and sense of adventure have kept it beloved for nearly four decades. Fans have
This is a big year for Saturday Night Live on two fronts. Along with the monumental 50th season premiering on the 2024 TV schedule in just a couple weeks, the origins of this small screen institution will be explored in Saturday Night, which drops in theaters next month on the 2024 movies schedule. Of course,
This year marks 23 years since the terror attacks on September 11. Many lost loved ones that day, including Pete Davidson, as his father, who was a firefighter, died while responding to the horrific event.
