The Coolest Easter Eggs In Doctor Strange In The Multiverse Of Madness Marvel Studios By Ben F. Silverio/May 10, 2022 9:10 am EST From this point forward, there are massive SPOILERS for “Doctor Strange in the Multiverse of Madness.” Proceed with caution. The Marvel Cinematic Universe has always been filled with references and Easter eggs. But up until relatively recently, the architects of the fan-favorite franchise only had the one universe and timeline to play in....

The Fabulous Filipino Brothers Star Dion Basco Makes The Case For A City Guys Reboot [Exclusive] NBC So what show or cast of beloved character should be next to get a moment in the spotlight again? Clearly, the answer is “City Guys.” C-I-T-Y You Can See Why But if “City Guys” was just another one of these teen-centric educational sitcoms, then why is it important? Well, for me personally, this show was the very first time that I saw a Filipino person on American TV....

Harry Crosby Was Blinded For Six Months Paramount/Warner Bros. Accidents on horror film sets don’t happen as often as they used to because, over the years, we’ve been able to build both the experience and technology required to make the most terrifying scenes a reality without anyone getting harmed. But in “Friday the 13th,” an accident that occurred while filming one of the movie’s more grisly scenes caused an actor to be blinded for six months....

The Star Wars Character Farrah Fawcett Almost Played Sony Pictures Television By Collier Jennings/March 21, 2022 9:34 am EST The “Star Wars” universe has given birth to a number of Hollywood stars, launching Harrison Ford to national heartthrob after his turn as Han Solo and even leading to Mark Hamill becoming a successful voice actor. But the landscape of that galaxy far, far away could have looked very different if a number of casting choices had been made....

What The Monsters In A Quiet Place Originally Looked Like Paramount Pictures Studios By Kaylee Dugan/June 8, 2022 10:58 am EST “A Quiet Place” may be all about the horror of sounds, but its aesthetics certainly matter. The super-hearing beasts that have taken over the world and driven humankind pretty close to extinction have a lot more going for them than their sensitive hearing. The monsters are formidable, hunched over and crawling on all fours in a deeply off-putting way, while covered in a black inky chitin packed with inhuman ridges and dips....

I’ve got a bad feeling about this Lucasfilm As we all know, “Star Wars” would go on to become a huge hit, kick-starting one of the biggest film franchises of all time. But back then, nobody saw it coming. Even Lucas himself thought “Star Wars” was going to be a flop. “I didn’t think the film was going to be successful,” he said at a Q&A in 2015. “I showed it to all of my friends early on, but it was mostly stock footage of old war movies, and all kinds of stuff....

Arrowverse Star David Ramsey Will Headline New Justice U Series For The CW The CW By Ben F. Silverio/Jan. 17, 2022 10:25 am EST Despite all the uncertainty surrounding the potential sale of The CW and the future of the Arrowverse if/when that sale takes place, the network is still continuing to develop shows in the universe created by Greg Berlanti & company that are based on characters from DC Comics....

Bill Burr To Direct And Star In Old Dads, A Movie About, Uh, Old Dads Netflix By BJ Colangelo/March 5, 2022 12:57 pm EST As if Bill Burr wasn’t already dadding hard enough with his Netflix animated series “F is For Family,” he’s going to be perfecting his niche as an old dad by writing, directing, and starring in the new original comedy film “Old Dads.” Joining Burr is Emmy award-winner Bobby Cannavale (“Boardwalk Empire,” and Emmy nominee Bokeem Woodbine (“Fargo”), who we assume will also be repping the world of old dads....

Greyhound Sequel In The Works At Apple TV+ Apple TV+ By Witney Seibold/April 12, 2022 10:12 pm EST There exists in this world a certain kind of war buff. They are the kind that obsesses over machinery, battlefield layout, and moment-by-moment plans of attack. These wartime aficionados are not necessarily interested in the death or mayhem of war, nor do they concern themselves with causes or wartime morality, but focus on the logistics, the devices, and the more personal or tactile experiences instead....

How Mad Max: Fury Road Tried To Do Its Most Vulnerable Characters Justice Warner Bros. Pictures By BJ Colangelo/March 10, 2022 10:51 am EST George Miller’s “Mad Max: Fury Road” is considered to be one of the greatest post-apocalyptic action films of all time, building on the 1979 original and its sequels to create an absolute masterpiece. With resources scare and the tyrannical slaver Immortan Joe (Hugh Keays-Byrne) ruling the wasteland with a brainwashed army of War Boys, titular hero Max Rockatansky is captured and brought to Immortan Joe’s Citadel to be harvested as a “blood bag” for an ill War Boy....

Judomaster Is Hiding Throughout The Peacemaker Intro And You Probably Didn’t Notice Him HBO Max By Joshua Meyer/Jan. 24, 2022 8:45 am EST If you haven’t heard, John Cena’s “Peacemaker” is the toast of the town, as much for his dance skills as for his anti-heroics, currently playing out in new episodes every Thursday on HBO Max. “Peacemaker” had already wrapped filming its first season by the time “Hawkeye” dropped on Disney+ last year, but its opening credits — which you can see below — almost seem like a response to the Steve Rogers-themed Broadway musical in that series....

When and where to watch Resident Evil Sony Pictures Releasing “Resident Evil” heads to Netflix on July 14, 2022, so there’s really not long to wait. Not now, anyway. After all, it debuts almost three years after rumors that a “Resident Evil” show was in the works. Eventually, Netflix confirmed it and even gave us a hint of what’s to come, teasing the first page of its “Resident Evil” script via Twitter....

Obi-Wan Kenobi Episode 4 Reveals The Tragic Fate Of A Clone Wars Character Disney+ By Rafael Motamayor/June 8, 2022 11:07 am EST The “Obi-Wan Kenobi” show, better known as the Princess Leia Power Hour, has been a heartbreaking bridge between the prequel and original trilogies. As cool as it is seeing Ewan McGregor back in “Star Wars,” so far it’s been a rather miserable time for the old Jedi Master. Indeed, more than a nostalgia fest with a parade of cool cameos, any connection we’ve had to the prequels or the animated shows like “Star Wars: Rebels” and “The Clone Wars” has been a source of emotional damage....

One Piece First Look Takes Us Behind The Scenes Of The Live-Action Anime Adaptation Netflix By Ryan Scott/June 6, 2022 1:59 pm EST “One Piece” is a wildly popular manga and anime series that has been running for well over two decades with no sign of slowing down. Now, Netflix is going to get in on the franchise’s good name by bringing a live-action adaptation to life, and we have been offered a glimpse into that undertaking during the streaming service’s Geeked Week....

Harry Brown Lionsgate Shot in Michael Caine’s hometown of Elephant and Castle, “Harry Brown,” released in 2009, plays out like “Death Wish” in London — well, maybe “Death Wish 5” when Charles Bronson was much too old to be chasing crooks! Something of a personal project for Caine, he plays the title character, a pensioner who embarks on a murderous revenge mission after a gang of youths murders his friend....

The Best TV Shows And Movies Coming To Disney+ In April 2022 Marvel Studios By Andrew Housman/March 22, 2022 4:12 pm EST April might bring warmer weather, but that isn’t stopping Disney+ from providing a new load of content to keep subscribers entertained indoors. Hot off the success of March releases “West Side Story” and “Turning Red,” the streaming service looks to continue its steady flow of movies and television shows with a host of original projects alongside returning titles....

The Innocents Trailer: When Superpowers Go Very, Very Wrong IFC Films By Valerie Ettenhofer/March 1, 2022 3:09 pm EST A dark drama from one of the writers of “Thelma” has just dropped its trailer, and it looks extremely unnerving. The Scandinavian film “The Innocents” played at Cannes and Fantastic Fest — earning a Best Direction award for filmmaker Eskil Vogt at the latter — and now it’s set for a May release with IFC Films....

Resurrections Warner Bros. Getting a fourth “Matrix” film was never a sure thing in the first place, with Lilly Wachowski (who isn’t returning for “Resurrections”) once going so far to call the prospects of another sequel as a “particularly repelling idea in these times.” Lilly has recently opened up in even further detail on why going “backwards” with “Resurrections” was never all that appealing to her, understandably evoking the loss of the sisters’ parents as one of many reasons why....

Completing the Story Warner Bros. For those venturing out to theaters or who are planning on catching the film from the comfort of your own home on HBO Max, perhaps refrain from expecting “The Matrix Resurrections” to conclude with a blatantly sequel-bait ending, laying the groundwork for years and years of return trips back to the Matrix. According to director Lana Wachowski, one last “Matrix” sequel is enough. In a red carpet interview with the Associated Press (via Comic Book), Wachowski shoots down the idea of any more films in the franchise — let alone another entire trilogy of them....
