One Punch Man Season 3: Is It Ever Going To Happen? Crunchyroll By Adam Wescott/Feb. 10, 2022 12:44 pm EST Once upon a time, there was an artist named ONE who made a silly webcomic about a powerful hero who could defeat any foe with just one punch. That comic was redrawn by talented artist Yusuke Murata as something more like an epic widescreen flipbook than something you’d read in a magazine....
Quentin Tarantino Never Let The Hateful Eight Cast Out Of The Cold The Weinstein Company By Jeremy Smith/June 27, 2022 6:18 pm EST Quentin Tarantino’s “The Hateful Eight” is a cold movie. Emotionally, it’s his most frigid work since “Reservoir Dogs,” a largely one-set western/thriller dripping with blood and vitriol. Tarantino strands his characters in a Wyoming general store in the middle of a raging blizzard — it’s brutally cold outside but not much better inside....
Okay, but seriously, where are Eddie and Marilyn? NBC The inclusion of Butch Patrick and Pat Priest is exciting for longtime fans of “The Munsters” and continues Rob Zombie’s time-honored tradition of offering roles to older actors who helped shape the genre so many of us love, long after Hollywood has forgotten about them. Zombie’s dedication to casting outside the norm has helped revitalize a number of careers, including Bill Moseley, Sid Haig, and Meg Foster....
RRR Director S.S. Rajamouli Once Made An Action Epic About A Murdered Man Who Is Reincarnated As A Housefly Ficus By Mike Shutt/June 29, 2022 5:00 pm EST For genre filmmakers, revenge has been and always will be a plot worth returning to. In terms of storytelling, it makes for a satisfying arc. Someone is wronged, and they set out to right that wrong in what is usually a violent manner, regardless of the degree of the wronging....
Schmigadoon Season 2: Everything We Know So Far Apple TV+ By Sandy Schaefer/June 10, 2022 4:42 pm EST Musicals, like rom-coms, have seen better days at the box office. Luckily, however, they’ve gained a new lease on life thanks to the streaming market. Last year saw “tick, tick… BOOM!” hit Netflix, ushering in the Andrew Garfield renaissance on its way to landing a well-earned pair of Oscar nods. Not long after that, Disney’s “Encanto” did sturdy business in theaters for a pandemic-era release, only to explode in popularity upon hitting Disney+....
That f***ing corset Paramount As one might imagine, Ryan hated the costume, designed by longtime “Star Trek” costume designer Robert Blackman. It was a neck-to-toe bodysuit with a corset stitched inside of it, and required help to put on and remove. Ryan has said that she couldn’t bend down in it, and even sitting was something of a chore. In an interview with The BBC, Ryan revealed the difficult mechanics that her midsection-cinching outfit required, including the headache involved in merely taking bathroom breaks:...
Studio 666 Co-Writers Jeff Buhler And Rebecca Hughes Kill The Foo Fighters [Interview] Open Road Films By Jack Giroux/March 4, 2022 4:23 pm EST “Studio 666” always has its tongue in its cheek. The horror-comedy, in which Dave Grohl becomes possessed and devours the rest of the Foo Fighters, never takes itself seriously in the slightest. The jokes and kills go big. Maybe beneath the grilling, the cannibalism, and the band’s infighting over a never-ending song, there’s a story about the fear of losing your friends or band mates and, as a result, yourself....
The 15 Best Body Horror Movies, Ranked New World Pictures By Jason Baxter/March 25, 2022 6:07 pm EST Body horror is without a doubt one of the most viscerally affecting subgenres in cinema. In an essay for The Rumpus on body horror and its relationship with later period capitalism, Davey Davis wrote, “Far more than being merely stomach-turning, [body horror] runs fantastically and viciously rampant with the anxieties we all have about our own physical vulnerability....
The Batman Composer Michael Giacchino Tapped To Direct Marvel’s Disney+ Halloween Special Marvel Comics By Valerie Ettenhofer/March 11, 2022 3:29 pm EST If Giacchino behind the camera doesn’t immediately have us hooked, the details of the project are sure to do the trick: Gael García Bernal is set to star in the project. Though initial reports don’t specify whether “Werewolf By Night” will be live-action or animated, Bernal is well-versed in both, building his career on performances in Spanish-language films like “Y Tu Mamá También” and “Bad Education” before taking a family-friendly role in Pixar’s “Coco....
The Godfather 50th Anniversary Trailer: Francis Ford Coppola’s Masterpiece Gets A Limited Theatrical Release Paramount By Chris Evangelista/Jan. 13, 2022 11:00 am EST Hey, have you heard about this young up-and-comer Francis Ford Coppola?

To celebrate, Paramount is re-releasing the film in select theaters....
The Munsters Prepare For Their Close-Up In Rob Zombie’s Upcoming Movie Universal Pictures By Valerie Ettenhofer/March 29, 2022 3:23 pm EST In a combination of words that still boggles the mind, the new Rob Zombie family comedy seems to be coming along quite nicely. The hardcore horror director and heavy metal musician is hard at work on his feature-length version of “The Munsters,” the sweet 1964 sitcom about a family of monsters....
‘Blondes have more fun, but … ' Paramount Barbara Stanwyck was already a big name by the time “Double Indemnity” came out. She had been a leading lady in Hollywood for over a decade and had garnered two Academy Award nominations for “Stella Dallas” and “Ball of Fire.” She was an incredibly recognizable figure, and one thing people knew about Stanwyck was that she was a brunette. For the role of Phyllis Dietrichson, Wilder envisioned the character as a blonde....

The True Cause Of Chevy Chase And Dan Harmon’s Fall Out On Community Sony Pictures Television By Shae Sennett/May 11, 2022 2:11 pm EST Chevy Chase and Dan Harmon had a twisted creative relationship on the set of “Community.” Chase, an “SNL” Weekend Update veteran and star of ’80s comedy classics like “Caddy Shack” and “Fletch,” earned a reputation for being a bit of a diva on the set of Harmon’s ensemble sit-com....
31% Of People We Surveyed Said This Was Their Favorite Star Trek: Deep Space Nine Character Paramount By Danielle Ryan/April 4, 2022 10:17 am EST (Welcome to Survey Says, a feature where we conduct a movie-related survey for a random group of people and explain why they’re completely right, completely wrong, or somewhere in-between.) Of all of the “Star Trek” series, “Star Trek: Deep Space Nine” digs the most deeply into the lives of its characters....
A Kids In The Hall Documentary Is Heading To Prime Video CBC By Danielle Ryan/Feb. 6, 2022 3:43 pm EST The History of Some Canadian Hilarity Here’s the official description for “The Kids in the Hall: Comedy Punks:” “The Kids in the Hall” were a talented post-punk group of guys making genre-breaking, gender-bending comedy, and I can’t wait to learn more about their history and celebrate their legacy. It’s impossible to overstate the impact of the Kids on TV comedy, as their willingness to get really weird helped shape subversive humor for decades to come....
Alice In Borderland Season 2 First Look Images: The Game Is On Netflix By Rafael Motamayor/June 6, 2022 1:27 pm EST “Squid Game” was a global phenomenon when it premiered on Netflix last year and quickly took the world by storm. But while everyone became obsessed with its deathly competition, it is far from the first TV show or movie to play with that premise. Another similar show about a group of people playing death games is the vastly underrated “Alice in Borderland,” a Japanese TV show based on a popular manga of the same name by Haro Aso....
An Alita: Battle Angel Sequel Is Still Possible, Says Director Robert Rodriguez 20th Century Studios By Sandy Schaefer/Dec. 16, 2021 12:27 pm EST Live-action adaptations of anime and manga properties continue to present a challenge for the U.S. film and TV industry, as shown most recently by Netflix’s abrupt cancellation of its live-action “Cowboy Bebop” series after a single season. Director Robert Rodriguez’s “Alita: Battle Angel” stands as the rare exception to that rule, having become a modest critical and box office hit upon its release in 2019....
Breaking Down The Biblical Imagery Of The Batman Warner Bros. By Jeremy Mathai/March 6, 2022 9:00 am EST Much like Robert Pattinson’s version of the Caped Crusader himself, “The Batman” isn’t a movie that even attempts to hide its various influences. As Bruce Wayne mopes around Wayne Tower (on the rare occasion that he’s actually there and not beating criminals to a pulp on the streets, that is) and listens to Nirvana like a total emo edgelord without an ounce of self-consciousness, director Matt Reeves adds to his already-impressive filmography with yet another thoughtful, ambitious blockbuster that reveals some fascinating sources of inspiration....
Cillian Murphy Has Always Been Christopher Nolan’s Secret Weapon Warner Bros. Pictures By Lex Briscuso/March 11, 2022 5:00 pm EST Christopher Nolan movies are an experience. That experience differs from film to film, from person to person, from concept to concept — but you are always left changed in some way, wholly different from the moviegoer you were two hours before. He uses many tools to cast this spell on you: his dreamlike yet intricately structured writing, his similarly intoxicating directing style, the sheer scope and breadth of the production design of his worlds, just to name a few....
