As we all know by now, the Coronavirus pandemic has had a massive impact on the entertainment industry. Many film and television productions were forced to shut down in an effort to maintain social distancing. Likewise, movie theaters and other such public places of business had to enforce social distancing guidelines and were forced to similarly shut down. This has had a dire effect on the industry as a whole, with many productions and releases being pushed back into 2021 if not released digitally. Obviously Disney was especially effected by this, considering the vast amount of films they were hoping…

It isn’t often that the public is allowed to see statistics directly from Netflix, but the popular streaming service has just unveiled their top 10 most popular original movies. And this isn’t just for a specific time period – these are the top 10 most popular original movies for Netflix, ever, in the history of the service. As such, it’s interesting to finally be able to look back and see what movies happened to be the most popular. And the answers are quite surprising for some spots. Obviously there are a few of the titles you would expect to make…

The Home Alone franchise has somehow managed to survive for a variety of direct-to-video films after actor Macauley Culkin decided to leave the series following Home Alone 2: Lost in New York. The franchise was recently acquired by Disney when they absorbed Fox into their already-massive library, and now work has progressed on a Home Alone reboot that’s intended to air on Disney’s streaming service, Disney Plus. While there aren’t too many details available yet regarding the new entry into the Home Alone franchise, we do have some interesting cast announcements for the reboot. According to some new reports, via ComicBook,…

The Child’s Play franchise has shown its ability to adapt and change with the times ever since the first film was released in 1988. We’ve gotten the original trilogy in which all three films closely followed the same formula. Bride of Chucky spiced things up in 1998 for the franchise’s tenth anniversary when they introduced secondary antagonist Tiffany Valentine, alongside a dose of self-referential humor inspired by the success of Scream. Seed of Chucky nearly took that humor too far, and the course was corrected with Curse of Chucky and Cult of Chucky years later via two direct-to-video continuations. Now…

One could compare the ocean to outer space, considering the vast amounts of both areas that remain to be explored. And although we haven’t yet discovered life in the outer regions of space, humanity has frequently discovered new types of life under the ocean. Sometimes it might even resemble cinema’s greatest interpretations of aliens. This is one of those cases – as scientists have discovered a new type of sponge that eerily resembles the alien from the beloved movie, E.T. The underwater sea creatures are actually a type of sponge, one which was initially discovered in 2016. They were labeled…

Although the Skywalker Saga has officially concluded with Disney’s Star Wars: The Rise of Skywalker, it looks like we might not have seen the last of key character Anakin Skywalker. In fact, a new rumor suggests that actor Hayden Christensen could be returning as Anakin Skywalker for the upcoming Disney Plus series that’s being focused on Obi-Wan Kenobi. While this is still just a rumor, as pointed out by LRM Online, it would make sense for Hayden Christensen to make an appearance as Anakin Skywalker, a role he played for Star Wars: Attack of the Clones and Star Wars: Revenge…

It’s been nothing short of fascinating to see The Lost Boys grow in popularity over the years. At one point, the movie was a stand-alone film for decades. Then in 2008, after the release of the rather divisive Lost Boys: The Tribe, the franchise continued to expand. We received a second sequel titled Lost Boys: The Thirst and two separate comic book series. Since then, we’ve had multiple different plans for a Lost Boys TV series, and now it appears there are even plans for a Lost Boys musical which would act as a prequel to the original 1987 film.…

Many horror fans have been excited ever since the rumors began that the entire Friday the 13th franchise would be collected under one new massive box-set. Now fans no longer have to speculate, as it’s been officially announced by Scream Factory that they’re the ones behind the highly anticipated Friday the 13th Collection – featuring all 12 films in the franchise – and you can already pre-order it on their website! The Friday the 13th Collection is currently scheduled to be released on October 13, 2020.  And it’s definitely one that fans shouldn’t miss out on, considering the massive amount of…

One of the movie franchises that’s been on everyone’s mind lately is the Halloween franchise. While the film Halloween Kills was delayed, meaning we won’t get to see Michael Myers on the big screen again until next year, fans are still turning back to the originals. In fact, some fans have started spreading a fan theory about the very first Halloween film and one of its protagonists – Samuel Loomis. The original Halloween is a movie that lends itself to plenty of different interpretations. Michael Myers and his unknown motivations are incredibly vague, so much that filmmakers and fans alike…

It’s been very eye-opening since the legal lawsuits between actor Johnny Depp and his ex-wife actress Amber Heard began. The issues started when Amber Heard claimed Johnny Depp would abuse her, as he claimed that was false and she was actually abusive towards him. This skyrocketed into a variety of stories and accusations from both parties, one of the more famous of which came from Johnny Depp when he stated Amber Heard allegedly defecated on their bed. While it’s hard to believe, now you can see for yourself the poop that Amber Heard allegedly left on their bed. As you…
