Battle Of The Bobs What Disney S Leadership Feud Means For Moviegoers

A clash of King-Bobs Marvel Studios It’s worth noting that Chapek’s appointment as Disney’s CEO was met with unhappy social media reactions from those familiar with the decisions he made during his tenure as the head of Disney Parks, Experiences, and Products. Under his watch, Disney’s theme parks saw an uptick in hard-ticket events and reduced operating hours that, combined with ticket price increases, served to make the park-going experience even more expensive....

Christopher Walken To Play The Emperor In Dune 2

The most powerful man in the known universe Warner Bros. Someone needs to tell Denis Villeneuve his version of “Dune” was supposed to be less campy than Lynch’s, because there is no way they are going for absolute seriousness and stoicism with Walken playing the big villain. Whether it’s a larger than life headless Hassian, or an archangel on a mission to kill the second coming of Christ, Christopher Walken is the man you want to give your villain an over-the-top flair....

Even Millie Bobby Brown Thinks The Stranger Things 4 Cast Is Too Big Netflix By Sandy Schaefer/May 24, 2022 10:39 am EST If there’s one thing the marketing for “Stranger Things” season 4 has been keen to impress upon viewers, it’s that this is by far the Netflix series’ biggest outing yet.

How The Boys Gets Around A Big Game Of Thrones Problem Prime Video By Michael Boyle/June 24, 2022 5:00 pm EST With this week’s very explicit episode of “The Boys,” it’s worth taking a moment to look back at the last big TV show that was famous for its heavy amount of nudity: “Game of Thrones.” (Okay, so there is also “Euphoria,” but that’s a whole other can of worms.) Before the epic fantasy show was being bashed for its poor plotting and questionably-concluded character arcs, the big recurring complaint critics had about it was the way showrunners used sex and sexual assault, particularly when it came to its female characters....

I Want You Back Director Jason Orley On Rom Com Staples And Securing The Rights To Little Shop Of Horrors Interview

“They’re never going to let you do that.” Warner Bros. The idea of you, a director, directing a director making a middle school version of “Little Shop of Horrors” is very funny to me. Totally. All the jokes about, “Oh, you’re the director.” I had never directed even a meta scene within a scene before. I never directed any kind of production where you got backstage and everything. Manny [Jacinto] is fantastic and he played it so well....

Pistol Review A Punk Rock Miniseries As Raw And Powerful As The Band That Inspired It

No future for me FX One thing that’s important to remember about the rise and fall of the Sex Pistols is that most of the band members were rather young. Vicious was only 21 when he died, and the rest of the band were similarly in their early twenties. They were barely young adults, fresh out of adolescence and trying to survive in a real meat-grinder of a world. It’s no wonder that several members turned to drugs and alcohol to chase away their pain, though the series wisely doesn’t glorify these moments....
