Sony has been having a successful run with their portion of Spider-Man adaptations. While they’ve leased the character out to Disney and Marvel to allow Tom Holland’s version of Peter Parker aka Spider-Man to interact with his fellow Avengers in the Marvel Cinematic Universe, they have been focusing on their own brand of comic book adaptations. Aside from the animated flick Spider-Man: Into the Spider-Verse, they’ve produced a rather successful adaptation of Venom featuring the iconic symbiote alien of the same name. Now they’re trying their luck with Morbius, the Living Vampire, and you can see the first official trailer…

While the Halloween franchise has been rather uneven regarding the consistency of returning cast members, actress Jamie Lee Curtis has still managed to appear in almost half of the franchise’s installments. Her character Laurie Strode has remained one of the most beloved and iconic final girls in horror film history, and she’s no doubt part of why the 2018 Halloween film was as successful as it was. While her role in the franchise has become synonymous with her evil counterpart, Michael Myers, it turns out she actually also participated in the only installment that had nothing to do with Michael…

Sony has had an interesting run with their take on the Spider-Man franchise and its characters over the last few years. They’ve not only teamed up with Disney to allow Tom Holland’s version of Peter Parker/Spider-Man in the Marvel Cinematic Universe, but they’ve been busy making their own film adaptations as well.

Now in that same style they’ve been working on an adaptation of Morbius, The Living Vampire with…

It makes sense considering that the Internet allows for obscure products with very specific demographics to directly sale much more easily. But now it appears mainstream actress Gwyneth Paltrow, who for example has acted in the blockbuster Marvel Cinematic Universe franchise, is now offering her own bizarre product. Gwyneth Paltrow actually owns a company called Goop that specializes in lifestyle products, and they are now offering a candle named “This Smells Like My Vagina”. It’s certainly a bizarre selling point, especially for…

It appears that after Joker star Joaquin Phoenix attended Jane Fonda’s “Fire Drill Fridays” climate change protests, located at Capitol Hill in Washington D.C., he actually ended up being arrested. It’s been reported that he was taken into custody by the capitol police. It certainly sounds a little bit like Joaquin Phoenix might’ve been a little too much like the Joker at this protest. Of course, this isn’t too out of the ordinary. Jane Fonda herself along with several other celebrities have been arrested at past Fire Drill Fridays since they were initiated back in November. https://twitter.com/hcjewell/status/1215695512701194242?s=21 For what it’s…

Willow is perhaps one of the most celebrated cult classic fantasy films around, and talks of a sequel have gone off and on for decades. Most recently since Disney launched its own streaming service Disney Plus, fans started speaking again about Willow and whether or not it would be a good idea to release a series based on the film for the streaming service.
