Justified Revival Will Bring Back Timothy Olyphant As Raylan Givens

Justified Revival Will Bring Back Timothy Olyphant As Raylan Givens Sony Pictures Television By Jeremy Mathai/Jan. 14, 2022 11:57 am EST It’s an IP-driven world and we’re just living in it, folks. If there’s any established franchise that holds even the slightest potential of bringing eyeballs with news of a buzzy revival, you can bet that studios these days will find a way to do it. We just received a new “Matrix” sequel over a decade after the trilogy wrapped up conclusively, the fifth installment of the beloved “Scream” series is slashing its way into theaters today with positive reviews, and even “Dexter” found new life after a catastrophic series finale with “Dexter: New Blood....

Locke Key Season 3 Will End The Series

A respectable, but uneven adaptation Netflix According to Netflix, this was not a premature cancellation, but part of the plan from the very beginning. Executive producers and co-showrunners Carlton Cuse and Meredith Averill said in a joint statement that they “three seasons was the ideal length to bring the story of the Locke family and their Keyhouse adventures to a satisfying conclusion.” This is rather interesting, because the third season of the show moves away from the original source material into brand new territory....

Nicolas Cage Couldn’t Land A David Lynch Cameo For The Unbearable Weight Of Massive Talent Lionsgate By Jeremy Mathai/April 15, 2022 9:06 am EST Welcome to the Nicolas Cage-aissance, folks. After years of getting the outrageous meme treatment, even to the point of causing beloved “Community” character Abed Nadir (Danny Pudi) to suffer a complete mental breakdown over classifying whether he’s a good or bad actor, the man, myth, and legend himself has been enjoying a well-deserved victory lap with a string of strong performances that best show everything the actor is capable of....

Night Sky Review Sissy Spacek And J K Simmons Shine In Stunning New Sci Fi Series

Strong writing — and an even stronger cast I was consistently delighted by the writing of “Night Sky.” As a critic, I’m always looking for character inconsistencies, events that aren’t adequately set up, unbelievable contrivances — basically, the kind of story issues that television shows, in particular, are vulnerable to since they often have various writers working at the same time. Overarching plot threads can dictate events that need to happen, even when that doesn’t fit organically with how the episodic stories are forming (just think of the infamous final season of “Game of Thrones”)....

Peacemaker Season 1 Finale Features Some Surprisingly Huge Cameos And Marvel Helped Pull Them Off

Peacemaker Season 1 Finale Features Some Surprisingly Huge Cameos, And Marvel Helped Pull Them Off HBO Max By Ethan Anderton/Feb. 17, 2022 12:23 pm EST Today brought the finale for the first season of “Peacemaker” to HBO Max, wrapping up the warped DC Comics series about the misguided superhero played by John Cena. If you haven’t been keeping up with “The Suicide Squad” spin-off series, then you’re missing out on one of the best stories to come out of the DC Extended Universe, turning the character into more than a one-note joke, giving him a tragic origin story, and slowly bringing about some much-needed redemption and evolution for the chrome clad meathead....

It’s your needy ex or a Scam Likely caller, still ringing you up to make meta horror jokes and pack in some gore-ridden mysteries year after year. There’s a lot to be said about the franchise that Wes Craven built with “Scream,” but one things for sure, it comes back slashing time and time again....

Set Phasers To Bone Star Trek Shows Ranked By Sexiness

Enterprise Paramount How can “Enterprise” be the least sexy, you say, when it was the show that tried the most desperately to be sexy? Well, just that. “Enterprise” is chock-full of naked flesh and see-through shirts, but it all feels so weirdly exploitative that it’s never actually very hot. The hotties of “Enterprise” are all lovely to look at, but their sexual exploits never really seem like much fun. T’Pol (Jolene Blalock) is the focus of most of the series’ sexual escapades, including an episode where she goes into an uncontrollable sex-craze due to Pon-Farr, the Vulcan mating cycle....

Muschietti’s movie is the first film adaptation of the novel, and he was the second director to work on the project, following the departure of screenwriter David Kajganich and Cary Fukunaga, who were both associated with the film during its production stage....

The Daily Stream Veep Is A Brutally Cynical And Hilarious Political Satire

Why It’s Essential Viewing HBO The last half-decade has made three things undeniable: American politics are dire, ego-driven, and very, very stupid. “Veep,” which debuted in early 2012, before President Obama’s re-election, was ahead of the curve. Part of its lampooning is how the series explores a part of the American executive branch under-scrutinized by the media and public. Most movies or TV shows about American politics focus on the president over the VP....

The Most Streamed Series Of 2021 Wasn T Squid Game Believe It Or Not

Silenzio Bruno! Disney+/Pixar Nielsen’s ranking of the most streamed movies in 2021 paints a similarly complicated picture of the streaming landscape. The top spot went to Pixar’s animated movie “Luca,” which amassed about 10.6 billion minutes of viewing on Disney+. What’s more, Disney+ had all but two of the top 10 most-streamed films last year, including new releases like “Raya and the Last Dragon,” “Cruella,” and “Jungle Cruise.” (For those who are curious: “Encanto” only streamed on the service for a week in 2021, so Nielsen has yet to report on how the movie has performed compared to these other titles....

Jean-Luc Picard had a new crew, each of them a lost cause given meaning. They had a ship, and a galaxy to explore. Was this going to be the new status quo going forward? Nope. Without going into spoilers, season 2 of the Paramount+ series sees a time jump — an unspecified amount of time has passed between seasons, and each member of the ensemble is now in a very different place....
