‘I feel so funky’ Reebok The “Ectoplasm” version (GX1648) of the Ghost Smasher sneakers has the same design as the original release, but there’s a more distressed design emulating the rundown look of the Ecto-1 that’s been sitting in Egon’s farmhouse in “Ghostbusters: Afterlife.” The proton pack attachment, which can be removed from the shoes themselves, has a glow-in-the-dark element, as does the tongue of the sneaker.

The Adam Project Trailer: Ryan Reynolds Has To Stop The Invention Of Time Travel Netflix By Jenna Busch/March 1, 2022 9:27 am EST I am not even going to pretend that I won’t go see a Ryan Reynolds movie, no matter what it is. He’s an absolute delight. I have even been known to watch commercials he does, and I hate commercials. I mean, I don’t need a new cell phone service provider, and yet I will let those Mint Mobile ads run to the end when I’m on YouTube because it’s Ryan Reynolds....

The Batman Gives A Quick Nod To One Of Robert Pattinson’s Best Films A24 By Valerie Ettenhofer/March 4, 2022 12:57 pm EST “The Batman” is a rich text. With its nearly three-hour runtime and a plot that draws influence from horror, noir, and superhero genres alike, it’s the rare blockbuster with enough going on to actually merit moviegoers’ close scrutiny. The film is also chock-full of references and homages. One of the best blink-and-you’ll miss it nods comes early on, in a scene establishing just how dark Gotham has gotten....

By Mike Shutt/April 22, 2022 8:41 am EST Whenever I decide to get on my Apple TV and fire up a streaming service, the first place I will always go to first is … Criterion Channel. The second place I will go is HBO Max.

The Leftovers Ending Explained: Nora’s Comforting Story HBO By Michael Boyle/March 28, 2022 2:59 pm EST When “The Leftovers” began, it was met with mixed reviews. Some of the criticisms were from disgruntled “Lost” fans still mad at Damon Lindelof (showrunner of both shows) for supposedly failing to answer all the mysteries “Lost” set up throughout its six-season run, and others were critical of “The Leftover’s” unflinchingly dark, depressing tone. Season 1 had most of its main characters trapped in the darkest period of their lives, buckling under the weight of a mass tragedy that had no explanation....

Let the Predator kill superheroes Marvel Comics Brisson had this to say about writing the upcoming “Predator” comic book series: “I’ve been obsessed with Predator since first seeing the film at the drive-in theater as a kid.

The Squid Game Doll Has a Twin Netflix Believe it or not, there’s more than one of her. I apologize in advance for this nightmare-inducing news, but a replica of the doll recently appeared at a Manila mall crosswalk. She monitors for jaywalkers, whilst singing the eerie “red light, green light” song from the series. If a pedestrian tries to cross on her watch, she swivels her head around and flashes her LED red eyes directly at them....

Why These Jurassic Park Characters Didn’t Make It Into Jurassic World Dominion Universal Pictures By BJ Colangelo/June 10, 2022 9:13 pm EST No, we’re not talking about kitchen raptors. Colin Trevorrow’s “Jurassic World Dominion” is now available to see in theaters, and chances are, the biggest selling point outside of dinosaur related hijinks is the return of Drs. Alan Grant, Ian Malcolm, and Ellie Sattler (Sam Neill, Jeff Goldblum, and Laura Dern)....

Why You Shouldn’t Compare Marvel’s Moon Knight To Batman Marvel Comics By Jamie Gerber/March 22, 2022 11:00 am EST When trying to explain Moon Knight to the uninitiated, there are many who would describe the hero as Marvel’s Batman. It’s a comparison that isn’t completely unfounded, particularly when considering some of the character’s early comic appearances. However, Marc Spector has evolved considerably over the years and he deserves better than being in the Dark Knight’s shadow....
