It seems that Hollywood will once again be adapting Hugh Lofting’s Dr. Dolittle for the big screen. When it was first adapted in 1967, Rex Harrison took the role of the titular lead.

Now, a new film titled The Voyage of Doctor Dolittle will start filming next year with the lead role being played by Iron Man himself, Robert Downey Jr. Dr. Dolittle, both versions, follow an eccentric scientist of the same name who has the ability to talk to animals. Each film adaptation offered…

It was recently announced that the DCEU’s Aquaman movie would be delayed from its original intended release of October 5th, 2018. However, in the midst of this announcement, Sony Pictures had one of their own. On the day that was originally intended for Aquaman, Sony will release its upcoming movie based on famous Spider-Man character, Venom. To clear things up, this not a movie made by Marvel. Most likely as part of the agreement between the two companies in regards to the film rights of Spider-Man, Sony will be making its own film based on the alien symbiote. Because of…

One of the big stories revolving around Deadpool 2, aside from that amazing teaser, is the casting for the character of Domino.

A few days ago, Joseph Kosinski, director of Tron: Legacy, revealed what he was originally going to do with a third Tron movie had it ever seen the light of day. However, just recently, Disney broke silence on the issue of the franchise saying that a new film is in the works. However, this film isn’t going to be a direct sequel to Legacy. Instead, it’s intended to be a reboot of sorts. The reboot in question will be using unused plot elements that were originally intended for Tron 3 and will feature a new character prominent to the story…

Let’s face it. Whether you liked the original Tron or not, most people won’t deny that Tron: Legacy was a massive disappointment. And from the looks of it, Disney thought so too. In the seven years since Legacy’s release, Disney hasn’t jumped at the chance to make a third film. However, the second film’s director, Joseph Kosinski, has given an update on where things stand in regards to a possible third film. In an interview with Collider, Kosinski revealed that Tron 3 is in development limbo. The franchise isn’t exactly dead at this point, but it’s completely up in the…

I’m not gonna lie here. When Ridley Scott released his prequel/spin-off/whatever the hell he was trying to do to the Alien franchise, Prometheus, I was disappointed. I mean REALLY disappointed. What a lame and underwhelming film to bring us back into the world of this classic sci-fi horror franchise. However, if the new trailer for the upcoming Alien: Covenant is any indication, Scott might finally be bringing back the once proud franchise to its roots. The trailer shows our group of Xenomorph entrees arriving on a new planet in hopes of making it a human colony. However, as they explore,…

Star Wars fan theories have been around almost as long as the franchise itself and honestly, with a film franchise that is reaching 40 years at this point with not only the numerous films that have come out, but also the books, comics, video games and so forth, you can find fan theories on just about any story, character, planet, etc. However, one that may seem odd comes from a film that isn’t even part of Star Wars to begin with. It has often been theorized that the titular character of Stephen Spielberg’s E.T.: The Extra Terrestrial might actually come…

Another year of the Golden Raspberries has come to a close with this year’s winners finally being announced and to no one’s surprise, there is barely any variety in the winners whatsoever this year. Almost every single award handed out was given to one of two films: Dinesh D’Souza’s political documentary, Hilary’s America: The Secret History of the Democratic Party, and Zack Snyder’s big superhero face-off, Batman v. Superman: Dawn of Justice. The only time a different film from the two won was in the case of Worst Supporting Actress. That award was given to Kristen Wiig for her performance…

The Walking Dead is no stranger to controversy. But typically, these controversies stem from content within the show itself such as excessive violence or the death of a fan-favorite character. That isn’t the case this time around. Recently in the world of the way too easily offended, a shirt from the series’ clothing line was removed by a British clothing line for being “racist” and “fantastically offensive”. The shirt in question had a picture of a baseball bat with the words “Eeny Meeny Miny Moe” on it. Fans of the AMC zombie series will immediately recognize this as a reference…
