We’re in March of 2022, and the year has been exhausting, to say the least. The one thing that can come off exhausting is the annual Oscars race and the Academy Awards celebration. Last we wrote down our predictions on who’ll win and came out somewhat close? As it is, it’s that time to take a dart and try to hit the mark on what picture, actor or actress, director, and other facets of entertainment will walk away with that golden statue. Look, the general audience doesn’t have 3-4 hours to burn while watching Hollywood pat themselves on the back,…

Another year and another Marvel Studios produced movie is around the corner. First up is the long-awaited Doctor Strange sequel, Doctor Strange in the Multiverse of Madness. Directed by Sam Raimi – after Scott Derrickson left the project for creative differences – the movie is set to have the MCU wizard multiverse hop to fight some sort of antagonist. However, there may be a secret team that might appear in Doctor Strange 2. The Doctor Strange in the Multiverse of Madness trailer showcases a confrontation with Morodo, played by Chiwetel Ejiofor, Shuma-Gorath, and even an evil version of Doctor Strange…

Grab a rock, chuck it across a field, and you’re more than likely to hit a coming-of-age movie. This subgenre in cinema has been used to deliver a poignant lesson about life, love, death, and loss.  I’m a sucker for these types of films, although not all of them do well. Fortunately, Norwegian film director Joachim Trier gave us The Worst Person in the World to fill our coming-of-age need and this dark romantic comedy-drama should definitely be on many people’s watchlists. The Worst Person in the World directed by Trier—who also handles writing duties with Eskil Vogt—follows Julie played…

Biopics are nothing new in the world of cinema. Some of them are spot on gold such as Malcolm X, Schindler’s List, and Goodfellas and some are just plain awful like Jobs and J. Edgar. So, what should come as no surprise is that the King of Pop, Michael Jackson, is finally getting his own biopic. The only thing we have to worry about is that the film will be brought to the theater by Bohemian Rhapsody producer, Graham King. King has secured the rights to create the film from the Jackson Estate that will cover Michael Jackson’s complicated life…

Superhero movies have been well-known to be produced with the idea that children and their parents are the majority audience. Recent Marvel and DC movies have been leaning into the idea that some of their movies can cover more adult-themed subjects that barely go into the realm of PG-13. And then there are some that straight jump into rated “R” like Watchmen, Blade, Joker, and James Gunn’s The Suicide Squad. However, Steven Soderbergh is wondering why there isn’t any sex scene in these superhero movies. Soderbergh has been a huge player in the Hollywood industry since the late 1980s indie…

It’s the beginning of 2022 and you know that means The Oscars nominations are here! That’s right. Another year where Hollywood gives themselves a hard pat on the back and demands that you recognize them recognizing films that you might’ve never heard of. There were a lot of great films released in 2021 that held astounding performances from the cast and people behind the scenes. Unfortunately for you Spider-Man fans, the web-slinger’s latest movie was only nominated for best visual effects. Honestly, there were a lot of great choices in the Best Picture category—except for Don’t Look Up—and in terms…

With every year when the Oscars occur, you can expect The Razzies event is sure to follow. The Razzies ceremony is where the worst in acting, directing, pictures, and everything else involved in filmmaking gets recognized for their poor choices. Originally known as the Golden Raspberry Awards, the occasion has been going strong since 1981. This year the event is set to take place on March 26, 2022—one day before The Academy Awards—and the nominations have been announced. The event will feature nominees such as Ben Affleck in The Last Duel, Amy Adams for The Woman in the Window, movies…

A lot of eyes have been on Matt Reeves’s entry into the Batman franchise since it was announced a long while ago. We got the news that the movie’s runtime will go the distance and now composer Michael Giacchino has dropped his theme for the movie for us to listen to. A moody theme or tone goes hand in hand when it comes to The Dark Knight and Giacchino decided to tap into that for his take on the music for The Batman. We got a little taste of the movie’s score when The Batman trailer dropped last year but…

Netflix’s acquisition of the rights of Rian Johnson’s whodunit franchise Knives Out was a big purchase. The streaming service has big plans for the second film – and production on the sequel is underway. Now, it looks like fans of the movie have an idea of when they can actually expect the sequel to drop. Variety has revealed that Knives Out 2 will be hitting theaters and Netflix in the last quarter of 2022 – in addition to giving us a few more details as well. It seems that Netflix plans on taking Knives Out 2 on the road for…

Disney and Lucasfilm announced some time ago that fans of the character, Ahsoka Tano, will be getting her own Disney Plus series starring Rosario Dawson as the lead. It looks like we have more news on the casting, and it appears that Mary Elizabeth Winstead has joined the show. Though we don’t know what her role will be, this is still exciting news, nonetheless. Winstead has proven herself multiple times in the world of action and has even showcased her talent by being able to take on more dramatic roles. Some of Winstead’s credits include projects such as Birds of…
