Just when you think Adam Sandler has fully redeemed his reputation as an actor, he signs on for another Netflix film. Worse than that, a Netflix film that’s the sequel to a beloved classic comedy. Both are extremely troubling signs. But much like our feelings about the titular character, we can’t help but root for the …

For the first time in its nearly 30-year run, Eric Cartman will do the impossible: He’ll lose weight. Following 15,000 seasons of Stan and Kyle lobbing fat jokes at the sadistic 10-year-old, the festively plump Cartman may finally have the opportunity to deprive his friends of the one thing they mock him for. But is…

Upon receiving her honorary Palme d’Or at the 2024 Cannes Film Festival, Meryl Streep is reflecting on the first and only other time she’d attended the event 35 years prior. She was there to promote the 1988 film A Cry In The Dark (also titled Evil Angels), which was based on the true story of Lindy Chamberlain, who…

David Copperfield, the famed Las Vegas magician, faces allegations of sexual misconduct from 16 women. The news was reported by The Guardian US, which sourced the claims from court and police documents, as well as interviews with more than 100 people.

Did you think And Just Like That... would lay the Carrie Bradshaw (Sarah Jessica Parker) and Aidan Shaw (John Corbett) romance to rest after season two? So what if they broke up in the finale yet again, this time because he wants to prioritize his annoying teen sons over her? If there’s one thing Max’s Sex And The…

If you don’t use it, you lose it, and Hollywood has been using The 40-Year-Old Virgin poster for nearly 20 years. You know the one: Steve Carell in front of a glowing orange sun with his eyes staring off in the distance like he’s having his high school yearbook picture taken. From small productions that could use more…

The ongoing trend of trailers obscuring that a movie is a musical (see: Wonka, Mean Girls) is reaching epidemic levels. Wicked is one of the most beloved and highest grossing Broadway musicals ever—that’s the whole point of adapting Wicked for the screen. Yet while the first full trailer for the movie teases some of…

The Bene Gesserit saw the new trailers for House Of The Dragon and Lord Of The Rings: The Rings Of Power yesterday, and said, “don’t forget who’s really in charge here.” While Denis Villeneuve’s Dune adaptation may have received one of the faster prequel turnarounds in recent memory, it’s certainly earned the right to…

Puzzles are a kind of analog telepathy. The puzzle designer conceives of an idea, and then attempts, through the expression of their work—a maze, a cipher, an encoded message or cleverly hidden clue—to export that idea to someone else’s head, in as clean a fashion as possible. It’s the same process that happens in…

Sequels may be commonplace throughout this summer’s release slate (an evergreen statement), but Nightwatch: Demons Are Forever is probably the least expected. It’s been 30 years since Ole Bornedal’s mortuary thriller kickstarted Nikolaj Coster-Waldau’s career, which the Danish continuation acknowledges. Bornedal…

Francis Ford Coppola isn’t exactly known for being the most cuddly and nurturing guy, especially if those traits would come at the expense of his art. The set of Apocalypse Now was famously so chaotic that it led to a near-fatal heart attack for its star and an entire documentary chronicling the madness of its…

A new installment of the Terminator franchise is coming to Netflix on August 29, the streamer announced on Wednesday. Terminator: Zero is an anime series, but it’s firmly rooted in the logic of all six of the films, showrunner Mattson Tomlin told Entertainment Weekly. That said, he specifically leaned into the horror…

Since the blockbuster success of the Queen movie Bohemian Rhapsody in 2018, a music biopic gold rush has been underway in Hollywood. Some of the resulting films—made as they are with the participation of the artist, or more often their estate—have found room for genuine creative flare (Rocketman, Elvis); more have…

It’s a common misconception that A Quiet Place was John Krasinski’s directorial debut. The critically acclaimed post-apocalyptic thriller was actually his third film as a director (besides a handful of episodes of The Office), following two previous two outings in the indie world—the ensemble family drama The Hollars,…

The first surprise in Outer Range’s second season, which kicks off May 16, is that it exists at all. The quietly competent sci-fi western debuted in 2022 without much fanfare, despite some good and intriguing first couple of episodes and a tremendous cast. This could be chalked up to Prime Video’s inability to market…

Look! Up in the sky! It’s a bird! It’s a plane! It’s the second movie in James Gunn’s reboot of the DC canon!

Better start lining up for your $17 Hailey Bieber skin smoothie because Only Murders In The Building is heading to La La Land. Announced during the Disney presentation at today’s network upfronts in New York City, Only Murders In The Building, the streaming series that dares ponder a world wherein Steve Martin, Martin…

After three years of scheduling and name changes, Marvel has finally settled on a premiere date and title for Kathryn Hahn’s much-anticipated return to the MCU. It was never a “Coven Of Chaos,” a “House Of Harkness, or “Darkhold Diaries.” It was Agatha All Along—and she would’ve gotten away with it too if it hadn’t…
