A Quick Recap Warner Bros. As Adebayo says early in this episode, “this s*** is getting goofy.” In “Monkey Dory,” Adebayo discovered that team leader Clemson Murn (Chukwudi Iwuji) is actually a butterfly when she put on Peacemaker’s X-ray vision helmet and saw into his brain. It turns out that both team members Emilia Harcourt (Jennifer Holland) and John Economos (Steve Agee) already knew about Murn’s butterfly status, although Economos refuses to talk about it and puts his fingers in his ears whenever Harcourt brings it up....
The tech A24 According to American Cinematographer Magazine, cinematographer Jarin Blaschke shot “The Lighthouse” on Kodak’s Eastman Double-X black-and-white 5222 film stock with a Panavision Millennium XL2 and 1930s-’40s Baltar lenses. He also used custom filters that “emulated early-1900s orthochromatic stock, which was sensitive to ultraviolet, blue and green light, but not red.” Orthochromatic film was a stock made with silver halide crystals, which tended to be more blue-sensitive. It was commonly used from the 1870s until 1906, and the process led to starker whites (skies were typically seen as pure white on ortho stock) and deeper blacks (the stock would turn red objects into black and deep gray)....

Horror is truly one of the mainstay staples of Hollywood and, in many ways, its ever-reliable backbone. Slasher flicks, specifically, feel as though they have always done particularly well....
Taylor Sheridan’s Lioness Adds Laysla De Oliveira To The Cast Netflix By Valerie Ettenhofer/March 20, 2022 12:46 pm EST Taylor Sheridan is continuing his quiet TV takeover with “Lioness,” an upcoming Paramount Plus series starring Zoe Saldaña. Now, Variety reports Saldaña will be joined by “Locke & Key” actress Laysla De Oliveira. “Lioness” is one of many Paramount-related series the prolific actor-turned-filmmaker is set to helm.

Texas Chainsaw Massacre Director Has A Few Ideas For A Sequel Netflix By Ryan Scott/Feb. 23, 2022 1:54 pm EST Netflix released “Texas Chainsaw Massacre” last week, serving as (more or less) a direct sequel to Tobe Hooper’s original horror classic. It was met with, shall we say, a bit of a mixed response on social media, with many critics not being too kind to it. But it certainly generated a lot of conversation, and, as with almost any horror movie, it left the door open for more down the line....
The 10 Best Marvel Movie Credits, Ranked Marvel Studios By Adam Wescott/May 9, 2022 11:41 am EST I’m done with the post-credits scenes in Marvel movies. At the beginning of the Marvel Cinematic Universe, they served their purpose as a promise to the fans that, one day, all the pieces being assembled would add up to something huge. Years later, that assembly keeps growing bigger and bigger, and each new piece seems less consequential and more like wheel-spinning....
Jupiter and Beyond the Infinite MGM In 1964, Douglas Trumbull, a mere 22 years old, worked on a film for the New York World’s Fair called “To the Moon and Beyond” which employed a new type of photographic technique dubbed The New CINERAMA – 360 Process. This was a process that involved shooting on 70mm film at 18 frames per second with a fish-eye lens. This technique allowed the film to be projected on a dome-shaped screen, creating a planetarium effect....
The Behind-The-Scenes Chaos That Created The Bourne Identity Universal By Sandy Schaefer/March 22, 2022 12:27 pm EST There are many directors who like to know exactly where they’re going with a film before kicking off production, planning things out to the tiniest detail. Doug Liman, however, is not one of them. “I’m really interested [in] going on an adventure, and going to parts unknown,” Liman told /Film in 2017. He was talking about what led him to direct “American Made,” a movie based on the hard-to-believe exploits of real-life commercial jet pilot-turned CIA and Colombian drug cartel smuggler Barry Seal....
The Boys Season 3 Trailer The Boys is an irreverent take on what happens when superheroes, who are as popular as celebrities, as influential as politicians and as revered as Gods, abuse their superpowers rather than use them for good. It’s the powerless against the super powerful as The Boys embark on a heroic quest to expose the truth about “The Seven”, and their formidable Vought backing. The Boys Season 3: Release Date, Cast, And More...
The Five Coolest Easter Eggs In Morbius Sony Pictures By Witney Seibold/April 4, 2022 2:04 pm EST This article contains spoilers, major and minor, for “Morbius.” “Morbius” opened last week to modest financial success and shrugs from critics. The adventures of Marvel’s Living Vampire didn’t inspire quite the same passion as “Spider-Man: No Way Home” — to which “Morbius” is tentatively connected; more on that in a moment — but it was not going to pass idly by without multiple references to its comic book source material or to other Marvel comics....
A Hellraiser reference gone wrong Netflix The actor said he proposed that a particular scene in which Vecna is hovering in the attic could be reshot in order to pay respect to the classic Pinhead moment: “I was like, ‘That’d be amazing to pay this homage to this incredible character and this wonderful actor, Doug Bradley.” He also shared that, during his attempt to talk the Duffers into shooting the scene, he said that Vecna would look “kind of like Jesus,” which would be in line with this season’s dark spin on religion....
The John Wayne Classic Mia Farrow Thinks Is Her Biggest Career Mistake Paramount By Anthony Crislip/Feb. 4, 2022 7:14 pm EST Long before the Coen Brothers brought Charles Portis’ novel “True Grit” to the screen in 2010, its first film adaptation came in 1969, with Hal B. Wallis producing and Henry Hathaway directing. Recognizing that the book had strong cinematic potential, actor John Wayne encouraged the involvement of both men. To round out the decades-old talent behind the screen, he was cast as the protagonist, U....
Prepare your ears for the audio storytelling lineup Independent Productions The projects Tribeca has arranged for their audio storytelling lineup are particularly interesting. First of all, did I miss a memo? Are we not calling them “podcasts” anymore? Is this the second coming of the “elevated horror” discourse? Regardless of what we classify them as, Tribeca is highlighting some really intriguing podcasts that will inevitably get optioned and transformed into a series a la “Dr....
Tyler Hoechlin Never Expected To Return For Superman & Lois The CW By Fatemeh Mirjalili/May 2, 2022 11:55 am EST Tyler Hoechlin’s Superman career had humble beginnings. Before his “Supergirl” appearances and a full-fledged television show based on his interpretation of the Big Blue Boy Scout, the actor had auditioned for Zack Snyder’s “Man of Steel” a few years before. The part eventually went to Henry Cavill, but Hoechlin realized during his audition that his understanding of the superhero was at odds with Snyder’s....
The Dating Game Hulu Like “How I Met Your Mother” before it, “How I Met Your Father” is set in the present day and generally looks to depict the state of dating as it is for modern audiences. Yet the version of dating that these two episodes present are a far cry from what dating in 2022 actually looks like. Sure, many parts of the process remain timeless like the search, the first date, the hits, the misses, and the group of trusted confidants to fall back on when things don’t work out....
Will There Be More Breaking Bad Spin-Offs After Better Call Saul Ends? AMC By Jeremy Mathai/April 12, 2022 11:26 am EST Who says lightning can’t strike twice? When a “Breaking Bad” spin-off was first announced back in 2013, before the original series had even concluded its brilliant run, few ever envisioned the project becoming as much of a success as it has — especially given its nature as a prequel, which conventional wisdom dictates is usually a narrative dead-end....
1883 Creator Taylor Sheridan Says The Show Is ‘Close Ended,’ So Don’t Expect To See More Paramount+ By Debopriyaa Dutta/March 1, 2022 9:45 am EST In case you’re expecting a continuation of the Dutton clan saga after the events of “1883,” don’t.

Every Bob’s Burgers Christmas Episode Ranked 20th Television By Addison Peacock/Dec. 21, 2021 8:13 pm EST Although “Bob’s Burgers” has plenty of great episodes to choose from, the yearly holiday installments are always a special treat. The show’s Halloween episodes are packed with trick-or-treating and a lighthearted, spooky atmosphere. Its Thanksgiving episodes are filled with trials, tribulations, and turkey. And then, of course, there are the Christmas episodes, which celebrate both the coziness and the chaos of the winter season....
