Rogue One: A Star Wars Story was the first spinoff anthology film Lucasfilm produced under the ownership of Disney. It told the story of how the Rebels got their hands on the Death Star plans, alluded to during the opening crawl of A New Hope. The film, I think, has been aging quite well, but…
Sorry for the delay on this one, it was a really busy week for me and I didn't have the time to go and see this one. But as soon as things calmed down, I headed on over to the cinema to check out Mission: Impossible - The Final Reckoning, one of our most anticipated…
The Last of Us returns to the present-day narrative in its finale and makes a beeline for its confrontational conclusion. It's a bit of an odd finale, in that it feels like part of a story, with random interludes and interjections from narrative beats that feel out of place. This is by design, as we…
Do we really need another live action remake of a beloved classic Disney movie? As someone who enjoyed the animated film Lilo and Stitch when it first came out and whose appreciation for it has only grown, I walked into the theater quite skeptical. I'm happy to say that my skepticism has been replaced with…
Despite recently going into production, we'll have to wait a bit longer for the next two Avengers films. Both films were slated to release in May 2026 and 2027, respectively, but Disney has now moved both projects into the winter months. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aZXBFirj6b4 Doomsday, which stars Robert Downey Jr. as Doctor Doom, will now release on…
Now that's what I'm talking about. Yesterday, acclaimed studio A24 announced that they'll be turning the hit video game Elden Ring into a film. Warfare co-director Alex Garland will not only direct the film but also serve as the film's writer. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=K_03kFqWfqs The acclaimed video game Elden Ring, whose story is conceived by A Song…
The sixth and penultimate episode of season two of The Last of Us gave us a whole episode dedicated to Joel and the influence he had on Ellie, both positive and negative. It was a powerhouse episode, with the best acting of the show to date by both of the leads. But it also continues…
After an unconventional release cycle, which saw three episodes get released a week over four weeks, Andor has come to an end. The show was, without a doubt, a masterclass in writing once again and segues nicely into Rogue One, which serves as more of a season finale than the final episode of this season…
While better than last week's episode, this week's episode of The Last of Us continues to be uneven due to the writing and rearrangement of the narrative relative to the source material. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_zHPsmXCjB0 The most glaring this week is just how quickly the second day in Seattle goes by. After a brief scene where Dina…
Rockstar may have recently delayed the highly anticipated Grand Theft Auto VI mere days ago, but to make up for the extended delay of the game, which is now targeting May 26, 2026 as a launch date, we now have a new trailer, a slew of new screenshots, and details about the upcoming title. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VQRLujxTm3c…
Editors note: we wrote this editorial before the White House clarified its stance, but we decided to run the story, as there's ample points made as to why tariffing the film industry is a bad idea. Since the writing of this article, President Donald Trump has paused the implementation of 100% tariffs on foreign-produced movies,…
Marvel has finally revealed the answer to a question that it's been hinting at for years about Thunderbolts*, and the big surprise is that it was a marketing gimmick all along. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-sAOWhvheK8 To be more specific, it is one of the best and most insane marketing gimmicks I've seen in a long time, and I love…
The fourth episode of The Last of Us' sophomore season dove back into horror in more than a few ways, aiming to further the character development. I'd say that one of these themes worked out, but the other stumbled pretty hard, unfortunately. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_zHPsmXCjB0 Where the show stumbled this week was the relationship between Ellie and…
I suppose it was inevitable. In a press release this morning, Rockstar Games announced that Grand Theft Auto VI will be delayed until May 2026. The game, one of the most anticipated pieces of media of all time, initially targeted a fall 2025 release. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QdBZY2fkU-0 Rockstar issued the following statement this morning:" We are very…
The latest MCU theatrical release is a true underdog story, both on and off the screen. After the lackluster performance of Captain America Brave New World, Marvel has some work to earn the attention of even some of its more loyal fans. Luckily, I have good news about the baddest heroes on Earth 616. Thunderbolts*…
It's Election Day in Canada and the gents decided to record an episode before the vote count starts! Sean shares his nostalgic experience seeing Revenge of the Sith back in theatres after 20 years, and we discuss the first few episodes of Andor season 2 and The Last of Us. Although we've missed many releases…
The first thing I did when the credits started rolling on Warfare was wipe my palms against my pants. Rarely has a movie shaken me literally to my core, but A24's latest film did just that. It was incredibly stressful and difficult to watch at times, but it was gripping in a way that few…
Can you believe it's been twenty years since Star Wars Episode III: Revenge of the Sith hit the big screen? I certainly can't, but here we are. The Star Wars prequels have enjoyed something of a comeback as of late, whether that's due to the people who were kids when these movies are grown up…
HBO's The Last of Us started its Joel-less narrative this week, cutting Pedro Pascal's name from the opening credits of the show, as well as his silhouette prior to the title splash. We may feel anger and loss, but I found the show itself felt a bit indifferent to the loss of the lead character.…
Note: while this review is spoiler-free, I will be talking about what the horror is in the movie, something that wasn't revealed in trailer 1 but confirmed in trailer 2. Sinners is the latest effort from writer/director Ryan Coogler and the first to not be based on a historical event (Fruitvale Station), or pre-existing IP…
Note: there are massive spoilers in this review. Read on if you're up to date, or don't care. The second episode of The Last of Us' second season was a tour de force of special effects and tragedy. It follows key events from the game, while also remixing and adding a lot to it, resulting…
Daredevil Born Again's first season is now over, and it went out with quite the bang. The season overall may have been a bit underwhelming, but the three episodes that were part of the major rehaul were by far the best of the season. The finale is one of those three and rivals the premiere…
It's been a long time coming, but it's finally happening. In 2028, which just so happens to be the 100th anniversary, the Academy Awards will introduce a new category: best stunts. It's something that's been championed by actors, directors, stunt crews, and yours truly for years now, and now those stunt performers will finally get…
This is a difficult month of April in Hollywood, especially for the greater Los Angeles area and movie goers of the 80s and 90s. We lost the great Val Kilmer on April 1st, 2025, a Los Angeles-born actor who most definitely shaped my childhood in so many ways. A passionate star, known to be incredibly…
HBO's The Last of Us is back after a two-year wait for its second season, which in turn is an adaptation of around half of The Last of Us Part II on PlayStation. The game in question was historically quite polarizing, but co-showrunners Craig Mazin and Neil Druckmann (the latter of whom was the Game…
You may have noticed over the past decade or two that some tentpole Hollywood productions were finding ways to bring in Chinese audience members. That may come from Chinese stars joining the cast or receiving partial financing from a Chinese company. This is because China is a huge potential market for film studios, as it's…
Sorry for the delay on this one! Daredevil: Born Again returns for its penultimate episode this week, and it was quite the episode! A lot of plot points collided this week, including the reintroduction of Bullseye to the plot and the tone that the show takes (and why!). https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7xALolZzhSM The pacing and tone of this…
We have some new details and rumours about the Predator franchise this week. CinemaCon just wrapped up, and one of the closer panels was for Predator: Badlands, the upcoming theatrical film slated to be released in November. There's also a juicy rumor from reputable insider Jeff Sneider about that second Predator film, so let's get…
The gents have been in theatres during the last few weeks, listen as they share their impressions of Mickey 17 from director Bong Joon-Ho and "Black Bag" from Steven Soderbergh. Also, the casting reveal for Avengers Doomsday has now been shown, a lot of familiar '20th Century Fox' faces coming back. Enjoy! Apple https://open.spotify.com/episode/1ResXNsJmaVGxJQnuZsaxi
Celebrated actor and artist Val Kilmer has died at the age of 65. According to Kilmer’s daughter, he passed away on Tuesday, April 1st, in Los Angeles surrounded by friends and family. The stated cause was pneumonia. Val Kilmer and Kurt Russel in Tombstone. Credit: Buena Vista Pictures Val Kilmer began his stellar career in…
Daredevil: Born Again continues to amp up the stakes for Matt as the ground below him begins to cave in as he dives back into the life he cast aside a year ago. Episode 7, titled Art For Art's Sake, really dove into the character motivations and delivered a satisfying episode. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7xALolZzhSM It addressed a…
In what could've easily been mistaken for an April Fool's joke, we have word that there is to be a sequel to Quentin Tarantino's Once Upon A Time In Hollywood. Only this time there's a twist. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ELeMaP8EPAA&t=1s Where Tarantino wrote and directed the original 2019 film for Sony, the sequel is doing to be a…
It's back! After years of collecting dust on a shelf, the near-complete film Coyote Vs. Acme will get a theatrical release in 2026 after Warner Bros sold the rights to the film to Ketchup Entertainment. It's been a long, confusing, and frustrating road for Coyote Vs. Acme. The hybrid animation/live-action Looney Tunes film was cancelled…
Both of these episodes of Daredevil: Born Again aired on the same time, so we're doing one review for them. The reason for that is likely just scheduling, as Andor is on the horizon and that has to line up with Star Wars Celebration Japan, likely. So we get a one-two combo of two unrelated…
In an unorthodox reveal, Marvel slowly unveiled the cast for the upcoming Avengers: Doomsday film. During a multi-hour live stream event, the names of the cast members were slowly revealed as the camera would pan across the line of chairs and linger on the name for an extended period of time before revealing the next…
Now that Michael G. Wilson and Barbara Broccoli are no longer active members of the creative team for the James Bond franchise, Amazon MGM Studios are fast-tracking the next 007. The first official act under this new direction is to find new producers to helm the ship, and now we know who will be the…
Episode four of Daredevil: Born Again, titled Sic Semper Systema ("so always the system"), feels like the kind of episode that finalizes the first part of a story before a major shift in tone and direction takes place. It follows up on the fallout of the murder of Hector last week, while having Matt really…
The oddly named Bob Trevino Likes It is an indie film inspired by unlikely true events in the life of the film's writer and director Tracie Laymon. The movie's description and cast will no doubt intrigue many, but it's definitely got some work to do to convince viewers of such an unlikely premise. Can Bob…
Just putting this at the top since they're stealing our articles, but "Mania Entertain Scoop" are a bunch of hack thieves. Since they copy our work verbatim using web scraping, hopefully, this makes its way to the top of their page. Anyway, here's the review. Daredevil: Born Again's third episode shifts the attention from the…
If you're a James Bond fan like I am, it's fair to say you may be having whiplash with all the news around the franchise. Godamn, even I'm struggling with this Herculean task. Since 2005, at the time when Daniel Craig was first announced as the new 007, there hasn't been AS MUCH new information…
