James Cameron Says He May Not Direct Avatar 4 And 5 Himself 20th Century Studios By Danielle Ryan/July 4, 2022 12:27 pm EST James Cameron’s “Avatar” is somewhat divisive. It’s one of the biggest blockbusters of all time, but some viewers weren’t impressed about a movie that felt like “Fern Gully” with blue cat people.

Spider Man No Way Home Reclaims Top Box Office Spot Becomes Sixth Highest Grossing Movie In History

Tom Holland to the Rescue Again? Sony Pictures As “No Way Home” gradually winds down its run, the box office could see a sharp drop-off in February. Lionsgate is hoping to lure audiences back to theaters on February 4 with “Moonfall,” the latest sci-fi disaster epic from Roland Emmerich, while Paramount will release “Jackass Forever” as counter-programming to Emmerich’s effects-heavy spectacle that weekend. A week later, Disney plans to finally drop the long-delayed “Death at the Nile,” in the hopes that Armie Hammer’s role (among other things that have made Kenneth Branagh’s star-studded murder mystery so toxic) isn’t enough to ward off moviegoers looking for a change of pace....

Val Kilmer Was The Best Batman, Actually: Defending The Most Overlooked Dark Knight Warner Bros. By Danielle Ryan/Jan. 3, 2022 1:53 pm EST The trailer for Matt Reeves’ “The Batman” has given us a glimpse at Robert Pattinson’s version of the Caped Crusader, and he might end up being the perfect performer to don the cowl. His haunted expression and fierce pout reminded me of Val Kilmer’s turn in the 1995 film “Batman Forever,” which I contend is the best live-action Batman performance, hands down....
