On Friday, 20th Century Fox unveiled the first trailer for the science fiction epic War for the Planet of the Apes. The third installment of the rebooted Charlton Heston classic looks to continue the trend of the new series being way better than it has any right to be. 2011’s Rise of the Planet of the Apes was a […]

It took a very long time for the first season of HBO’s Westworld to grace our television screens. The pilot was shot about a year before the rest of season one was shot. Despite the production issues, Westworld continued on and delivered a strong opening 10 episodes. As a result, the biggest question hovering around the show is simply, where can […]

Director Zack Snyder is quite a Star Wars fan and isn’t shy about letting his geek flag fly. Fans might remember the Batman v Superman filmmaker and Star Wars: The Force Awakens director J.J Abrams trading mash-ups related to their respective projects during production. If not, here’s a refresher. Two years ago, Abrams revealed a […]

On the surface, there is no reason that the Baywatch movie (remake?) should fail. Dwayne Johnson is the embodiment of star power at this point in his career, and is the perfect combination of action hero and comedy goofball for a project like this. Zac Efron certainly has an action star’s body and has proven […]

Like so many industries, Hollywood is one of trends. Someone figures out a type of movie that works, and all of a sudden, we have 20 more like it. A fresh-faced actor connects with audiences, and now he or she in every movie. A cinematic universe becomes a thing, and so everyone must have one. Movie […]

Being able to binge television shows is not as much of a modern convenience as you might think. Prior to widely available streaming services (Netflix, Hulu, Amazon, etc.), there was TiVo, introduced in 1999. That technology evolved rather quickly into widely-available DVR service. But prior to TiVo, even, television shows were available as box sets […]

You’re getting a new Transformers film whether you want it or not, young man (or woman). It’s been more than two years since a new Transformers movie hit theaters to assault your eyes, ears and brains. So another sequel in the giant robots blockbuster was apparently due. But with the last installment — the fourth […]

Cord-cutters haven’t embraced the HBO Now streaming service like the network and corporate parent Time Warner had hoped HBO Now hasn’t been quite the hit that the premium cable network and Time Warner hoped it would be. According to the New York Post‘s Claire Atkinson, the streaming service hasn’t drawn in a large percentage of […]

In a joint victory for corporate synergy and mildly edgy comedy, Jimmy Kimmel will be hosting the 2017 Academy Awards on ABC. It was confirmed by the comedian himself: It’s perhaps a bit surprising that Jimmy hasn’t hosted yet. He’s been ABC’s late-night host for nearly 14 years now, debuting in January of 2013. He also […]

Westworld‘s first season on HBO certainly didn’t end on a quiet note. Dolores Abernathy, you’ve come a long way. Westworld’s fair country maiden was presumably the series’ most important character from the very start. In recent weeks, it seemed as if Maeve might have taken that role away from her, as her attempt to escape […]

Few hosts enjoy their week at Saturday Night Live as much as Emma Stone. She’s been rather public about her childhood dream of becoming a cast member before those dreams were dashed by a successful movie career. As a consolation prize, Stone settled for hosting the show she loves twice, but it has been over […]

As fun as the first teaser trailer for Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 2 was, it was missing a key component (at least until the very end): Baby Groot. The tree-like monster was reduced to a sapling after sacrificing himself to save his friends in the first GotG film, and he’s toddler-sized for the sequel. […]
