The 10 Best Netflix Original Animated Series Netflix By Erin Brady/June 22, 2022 5:00 pm EST The future of animation on Netflix is a bit grim. Despite an interesting showcase at the Annecy International Animation Film Festival, it was revealed this past April that Netflix would be drastically cutting down on its animated programming. This move, made in the wake of various scandals for the streamer, included high-profile cancelations such as the long-gestating “Bone” series and Ava DuVernay’s adaptation of “Wings of Fire....

Paul HBO Max Perhaps if Scott and the other “Raised by Wolves” directors had pushed Felix Jamieson to give a more transformative and muscular performance, his character would have fared better on this list. The tribulations, progressions, and regressions that Paul undergoes are more interesting than Jamieson’s work indicates. But Paul does have an interesting rapport with the other characters, particularly his imposter parents and his “brother” Campion; his relationship with the faith that has sunk its claws deep into his heart and brain is compelling as well....

The 95 Best Comedy Movies Ever DreamWorks By Audrey Fox/April 18, 2022 4:25 pm EST How does one even approach making a list of the best comedies? Of all genres, this is the one that’s the most difficult to pin down. First of all, comedy is entirely subjective — everyone’s sense of humor is different. What works for one person will fall completely flat for another. Then, how do we account for comedy that has aged poorly, but has had a huge impact on the genre, influencing cinema for decades after its release?...

The Psycho Controversy Explained Paramount Pictures By Soham Gadre/Dec. 20, 2021 11:57 am EST Nothing riles up the public quite like a horror film. For pretty much the entire last century and still somehow continuing into this one, movies of the macabre have attracted the biggest scolding of any film genre in Hollywood. People fear the unknown, and horror, suspense, and thriller films live in those realms. They revel in the naughty and uncouth, so it’s no wonder that horror cinema also seems to depict the most daring cinematic depictions of sexuality as much they do death, religion, and the supernatural....

By Michael Boyle/April 18, 2022 11:45 am EST Perhaps one of the most impressive parts of Matt Reeves’ “The Batman” is the sheer amount of attention to detail. In nearly every scene, especially the ones outside where you can see the streets of Gotham, it’s tempting to get distracted by how cool everything looks. This version of Gotham is more gothic and grimy than ever, and that’s reflected in pretty much every moment we get to see it....
