We've got a last minute screening for you so you can cry for two hours tonight! OK, that doesn't sound like that much fun, but Beautiful Boy looks like the prolific tear-jerker of the holiday season, and it's good to have a nice cry ev...
The big question last week was whether or not Venom's above-expectation box office would carry over to next week. Predictions were for a pretty solid drop considering the poor reviews and only OK audience reception. Those predictions w...
In news that is probably shocking to no one, Marvel and Netflix's Iron Fist will not be returning for a third season. Despite apparently improving the second time around, the showrunners at Marvel have passed on continuing Danny Rand's tale...
Like The Big Lebowski? Like contests? I've got somethin' for ya. The good thing about these movie giveaways is I don't really have to sell you guys on it. It's always these big, iconic releases that everyone is already super familiar w...
Julia Roberts and Lucas Hedges serve up some mighty fine performances in the new trailer for Ben Is Back. In a wave of awards season films aimed at tearing parents’ hearts apart, notably with the Steve Carrell/ Timothee Chalamet-led B...
For a film, many thought would do horribly because it's not part of the MCU and is done by Sony, Venom did extremely well at the box office in its opening weekend. Now, of course, there is the talk of where does it go from here and that que...
His mother says he’s changed, that he’s given up. However, that theory quickly proves false as Elijah Price catches a glimpse of his new roommates and sets into motion a new plan. The nearly three-minute trailer is chock full...
Another year, another epic sci-fi movie that rolls into theatres to rake up award nominations. Since 2013, there's been a trend to release at least one big sci-fi movie that either focuses on scientifically accurate space adventures or a hi...
I won’t beat around the bush here; this movie blows. I was gonna do this whole intro I normally do where I tell you about how scary the Goosebumps books were when I was a kid, and blah blah blah, yadda yadda yadda, and this new thing...
Gareth Evans (not to be confused with the also talented Gareth Edwards) is easily one of the best action directors working. The Raid and The Raid 2 are, to put it simply, action masterpieces. His use of space, innov...
Matt Murdock has had a hard life. Just when you think our favorite superpowered blind lawyer vigilante has totally hit rock bottom, the extraordinary situations that he gets into keeps bringing him lower and lower. Matt, a devout Catho...
A new teaser trailer for Disney's live-action remake of Aladdin was shown during tonight's football game and if you were hoping for something substantial, it's best to temper your expectations. They call these things teasers for a reason an...
There comes a point in one's life where they become disillusioned with the world and their surroundings, and when one's optimism and idealism become cynicism and nihilism. In Titans, that disillusionment is a constant in a wo...
With the first Black Panther film from Marvel Studios being such a huge box office and critical hit, a sequel was only inevitable. What was less certain, however, was the film's director and co-writer Ryan Coogler (Fruit...
Comic book adaptations are all the rage today, yet I don't think anyone was expecting CBS to announce that they just ordered a pilot for a TV series based on DC's "Secret Six" series. The series is somewhat similar to "Suicide Squad", where...
In a world teeming with superhero sensory overload, sometimes a respite is needed. Sometimes the hero isn’t really a hero and only fights for good because there’s no other choice. A reluctant hero, perhaps. Welcome to God Coun...
We've got more Disney live-action movie news for you. Apparently, Lady Gaga is interested in taking on the role of Ursula the Sea-Witch in the live-action adaption of The Little Mermaid. This past summer it was reported that this role was o...
If you happen to love all things Disney like I do, and have been keeping up with their live-action adaptions of their classic films, then you will love what Will Smith just showed off today. In an Instagram post, the new Genie showed off th...
By the time the world ends in a few decades due to climate change, consumers will at least have access to what I presume will be hundreds of streaming services. Ever since the likes of CBS and Disney have started their own not-Net...
The pieces are starting to fall into place for Netflix's The Witcher adaptation. Today it was announced that Freya Allan and Anya Chalotra will portray the roles of Ciri and Yennefer respectively. This comes after it was announced a few w...
Halloween is back... in pog form! No, OK, it's just back in classic form. With the return of Jamie Lee Curtis and functioning as a direct sequel to the first movie the newest edition of Halloween actually looks scary as hell....
I'm not sure who walked into the casting room for The Christmas Chronicles and suggested that Kurt Russell play the jolly gift-giver, but that person is a genius. Judging from the trailer that just dropped, the rest of this movie look...
The path to redemption is not necessarily a straight line—rather, it can be sinusoidal instead. With Jimmy McGill (Bob Odenkirk) in Better Call Saul, his journey as a con-man trying to turn into a genuinely good person is full of...
Let me get my dig in upfront about how a potential sequel to the worst sequel ever is totally fine and definitely not capitalism squeezing out my last gasp of creative hope for Hollywood. Nope, just another Wednesday where once excitin...
Why howdy, partner, and welcome back to The 300, a rootin' tootin' feature on my wild 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 scariest child in cinematic history is Miko Hughes ("that kid" from the 90s) in the original Pet Semetary. Screw that kid and his terrorizing of my childhood dreams. It looks, however, like there's a new host of creepy children se...
Thinking about the opening shot of Roma brings tears to my eyes. The centerpiece film at the 2018 New York Film Festival is a masterful display of Alfonso Cuaron’s craft, and how the magic of filmmaking can situate the mind in a speci...
After a few days of recovery, it's time to wrap up our coverage of New York Comic-Con. Between all of the running around most of us did from the Javitz Center to Madison Square Garden for the big panels, the Flixist crew is pretty damned ti...
Veteran of the long-running Big Bang Theory Jim Parsons has decided that he just can’t break from TV, and will be executive producing a new comedy with ABC. It's been competitive, but ABC just had the edge and got dibs on the show, ba...
Garth Ennis is the best thing that ever came out of the terrible period of comics known as the 90's. There I said it. Yes, there are a few other merits from that decade but Ennis and his writing just embodies so much of the 90's while stil...
In a surprising development for the increasingly-tumultuous career of James Gunn, the writer-director of Marvel Studios' Guardians of the Galaxy is jumping ship to DC Films with a new Suicide Squad film. This comes ...
Ruby Rose is flying into Vancouver, the location they shoot all the CW shows, today so the network is dropping our first look at her as Batwoman. As you can see the costuming is both in line with the Arrowverse designs and her comic book&nb...
Like Hail, Caesar!, The Ballad of Buster Scruggs is a movie about movies. Hail, Caesar! took the tropes of the old-fashioned studio pictures and turned them into an interconnected backlot pastiche of cinematic styles. You had composites of ...
Netflix hosted Friday’s final event on the main stage of the 2018 New York City Comic Con. It was appropriate titled, Netflix and Chills. But as the host was quick to point out -- this was the seasonally appropriate kind of Netflix &a...
This year's NYCC had a heavy dose of our favorite web-crawling superhero Spider-Man. First, we got a glimpse into more of the upcoming film Spider-Man: Into the Spider-verse. Now LEGO and Marvel are bringing us LEGO Marvel Spider-Man: Vexed...
It's almost time! We're quite near the end-of-summer movie slump (though, there's been some great stuff these past few months) and rolling right on into the wonderous movie time that is the end of the year. There's the horror of Octobe...
I feel like I should be more excited for How To Train Your Dragon: The Hidden World. Both the original movie and the sequel were some of the best movies Dreamworks have ever put out, but I'm just not feeling that spark for the third m...
With the release of Spider-Man: Into the Spider-Verse’s second trailer debuting earlier this week, I was wondering why the hell the Spider-Verse panel was going to be an hour and a half instead of the normal hour. ...
