Like the White Walker army approaching Westeros, the final season of Game of Thrones is shambling towards its premiere after taking 2018 off. Through a new-ish video (with no new footage), HBO revealed that season 8 will begin sometime in ...
It's weird that I keep on forgetting about Alita: Battle Angel. At the beginning of the year, I couldn't wait to get the chance to see this movie for a whole host of reasons. Not only has it been a passion project for James Cameron an...
The most unfortunate thing about David Spade's career is he's probably most known as that guy who shows up in all the Adam Sandler movies. That in itself is not a bad thing, Sandler has had some banger movies, but it discounts how prolific ...
I'm not sure what to think about Creed II. Is it going to be the dramatic and stunningly good drama that Creed was or are we going full Rocky III here and just turning the franchise into boxing ridiculousness. It's hard to tell, a...
Venom opened in China! Just saying that right off the bat so you all don't immediately jump to the comments to yell at me. While Venom has been doing perfectly fine without China it opened there this past weekend and tor...
I can only imagine that Pokémon fans reacted to the news of a film adaptation for Detective Pikachu with a mix of skepticism and curiosity, with a bit of horror sprinkled in. Today, through the film's first trailer, Warner Bros...
Disney and Pixar just released not only the teaser poster for Toy Story 4 but also a little trailer introducing the newest "toy", Forky. This trailer starts out peaceful with all your favorite toys in harmony till we get to Forky who freak...
After a decade of airing, it takes a very special combination of acting, writing and comedic timing to keep a sitcom going. For most of these shows, there seems to be a specific season you can point to where the quality went on a downward t...
Coinciding with the centenary of the Great War, I think it’s safe to say that this documentary is a once in a lifetime achievement, and Peter Jackson does not disappoint. The result of hundreds of hours of research in conjunction wi...
One of the longest traditions of science fiction is its incredible ability to address social issues and concepts without directly being about the specific social issues of the day. Captive State is very clearly a science fiction ...
The still-untitled Avengers 4 is set to be the longest Marvel film to date, according to co-director Joe Russo. In a recent live stream Q&A, Russo stated, "The running time on Avengers 4 is currently sitting right at three hours. We'll ...
I've always loved the road trip genre of film, it's such a nice metaphor for character growth and there are usually some very scenic second unit shots that fulfill my wanderlust. There is comfort in these films as they usually all follow th...
For the longest time, I didn't think that Overlord would release. Not because it was in production hell or anything like that, but because it was a part of J. J. Abrams Cloverfield universe and those movies can be announ...
Lisbeth Salander should not be a superheroine. While the character is resourceful and strong, physically, mentally, and morally, The Girl in the Spider's Web turned her into some sort of action movie secret agent-type. As satisfying as...
Believe it or not, prior to my screening I wasn't paying that much attention to Illumination's The Grinch, but from what I did see I thought the film was going to try something a little new with the character and focus on how he became...
Disney is wasting no time with announcing shows for their streaming service that is slated to launch next year. While confirming the rumors that a show based around everyone's favorite bad boy Loki were indeed true, Disney CEO Bob Iger an...
Bob Iger, CEO of Disney and aspiring owner of everything imaginable, confirmed that Disney's long talked-about streaming service will be called Disney+, or Disney Plus, or what have you. Previously, a report misunderstood the name of t...
The more I hear about HBO's Watchmen, the more intrigued I am by it. Whether it was showrunner Damon Lindelof's bizarre letter about the project or how Dave Gibbons quoted the series to temper fan expectation, I can't he...
I've only briefly touched upon my utter adoration for Taron Egerton (and Ansel Elgort) when I reviewed Billionaire Boy's Club, but please dear reader do not mistake: I have the biggest man crush on this beautiful Welshman. He knocked his pe...
Content, content, content is what Netflix is all about, and the streaming behemoth is planning to offer a ton of original Asian shows and films. Included in that slew of content is an anime series continuing off of the Pacific Rim ...
It's not really fair to compare a film to something as good as Disney's live-action The Jungle Book, but obviously, Mowgli, the new film from director Andy Serkis, is going to draw them. The two actually started production around...
While Better Call Saul is great, the follow news may be satisfying to hear from Breaking Bad fans missing some of the classic, core characters of the original show. The mastermind behind the Breaking Bad universe is working on a two-hour fi...
Hey there, fellow travelers, and welcome back to The 300, a long, dumb feature on my attempt to watch 300 movies in theaters in the year 2018. I’ll be watching new releases, classics, hidden gems, and festival films to experience the ...
The Chilling Adventures of Sabrina hasn't even been out a month yet and already its caused controversy. It's all over a key set decoration piece that has one group up in arms. The Satanic Temple is angry at the Netflix show over the s...
If you think I'm going to stop running contests, then you must not know my name. Win a Blu-ray copy of The Unnamable. Our friends over at MVD Entertainment Group started sending us movies. But then, they didn't stop. The terror! I have...
While there was a rumor circulating that a new Super Mario Bros. movie could be coming sometime next decade, today we have proof that an animated movie is indeed in the works. Speaking with Variety, Despicable Me producer and Illumination ...
Somebody once told me (specifically Variety) the world is gonna roll me (because Universal Studios is rebooting Dreamworks franchises Shrek and Puss in Boots after parent company Comcast's 2016 purchase of Dreamwork...
I hated musicals as a kid, so the beginning of Willy Wonka and the Chocolate Factory bored me to tears, but it was still my favourite movie. When the magical first chords of "Pure Imagination" started playing and the kids explored a ro...
Because we live in a world where no holidays exist between Halloween and Christmas according to candy cane filled psychopaths, we're already getting into the Christmas spirit! With The Grinch releasing this Friday, why not du...
Overlord looks schlocky, gruesome, terrible and wonderful. I'm guessing for a sleeper hit on this one with probably some sort of twist on the Nazi/Zombie sub-genre you weren't expecting. Then again maybe not. Maybe it will just be a straigh...
Last spring, NBA Hall of Famer Shaquille O'Neal took on actor Ken Jeong in a rap battle of mismatched proportions. Shaq isn't shy on a mic by any means, and Jeong got a few good licks on the big man, including a dig on Kazaam. Now, aft...
At Flixist we don't cover kids movies with that much regularity. With that in mind, you're probably wondering why I've chosen to publish a story about a possible third film in the Paddington series coming out as, at face value, th...
Uh, does anyone here still watch The Walking Dead? I've fallen out of it ever since they hid Glenn under the dumpster, but I occasionally fast-forward through the big "event" episodes. While I'm trying to peacefully watch Better C...
Widows looks like something we don't get all that often: a clever and original crime film, replete with strong performances and an actually compelling story. It's definitely caught my attention after it stormed out of festivals with great r...
Who knew that what the people really wanted were drama-filled musicals? This weekend showed that evidently what we've all actually been craving are films filled with great songs and big emotional moments as Bohemian Rhapsody destr...
The coolest part about adapting lesser known superheroes and superhero groups into movies is letting audiences peek into the rabbit hole that are comic book villains. As a teen I read through the entire DC encyclopedia or heroes and villain...
James Cameron and Warner Bros. are about halfway through shooting Avatar 2-5, but we still know almost next to nothing about them aside from the fact that they'll take place on Pandora and a few casting tidbits. Now the&...
Orson Welles’ final film, The Other Side of the Wind, was shot from 1970-1976, but it wasn’t fully assembled until this year. The film released by Netflix today is an imperfect salvage job. Welles only finished editing about 40-...
Boy Erased looks like it's going to have a lot of people talking when it lands given both its subject matter and quality. Now you'll have the chance to talk about it first. We've got passes for an early screening of the film that you c...
Gladiator was one of those seminal films that if you were the right age and saw it at the right time has stuck in your mind since then. I was both at the right and at the right time so the movie for me is one of my favorites from direc...
