God of War Ragnarok: “Fat Thor” Design Divides the Internet Despite Being Perfect

New DVD release, , , , , ,
While we were all buzzing about PlayStation’s incredible September showcase, Sony Santa Monica Art Director Raf Grassetti caused a bit of a debate on Twitter when he shared the first full, official image of Thor as he appears in God of War: Ragnarok. My boy! pic.twitter.com/5hPocTewBJ— Raf Grassetti (@rafagrassetti) September 9, 2021 To get a portion of the editorial portion of this program out of the way early, I think that design is awesome. Aside from a few scenes in Avengers: Endgame that were mostly played for laughs, we typically don’t see Thor depicted in this way despite the fact…

Back to the Future Not Being Planned as a Trilogy Is What Makes It Great

New DVD release, , , , ,
In the last decade, it’s become a common refrain among fans and industry players alike: the filmmakers should’ve “planned it better.” This trilogy could’ve been mapped out; those five sequels needed to be outlined first. Perhaps this is inevitable in an era where “shared universe” is part of the everyday vernacular, yet I cannot help but be amused when folks grow wistful over sequels with allegedly concrete roadmaps: franchises like Star Wars, Godfather… and the Back to the Future trilogy. Whenever social media discussions about sequels or franchises that most smoothly told their sagas rear, Robert Zemeckis and Bob Gale’s…

Jupiter’s Legacy: Andrew Horton on the Importance of Being Paragon

Netflix, New DVD release, , , , , ,
This article is presented by: Despite the fact that his career is a fairly young one, Andrew Horton is being faced with dramatic challenges on Jupiter’s Legacy, not the least of which stems from the fact that his character, Brandon Sampson (aka Paragon) is the son of the world’s greatest heroes, the Utopian (Josh Duhamel) and Lady Liberty (Lesie Bibb). The good news is that he’s had no problem rising to the meta-human challenge. Besides starring in the short films Ladies First and Breach, Horton made a guest appearance on the TV series Doctors and in the films It Came…

Superman & Lois Episode 3 Review: The Perks of Not Being a Wallflower

New DVD release, , , , ,
This Superman & Lois review contains spoilers. Superman and Lois Episode 3 “Morrissey’s a xenophobic has-been.” This one line, delivered with deadpan perfection by Alex Garfin’s Jordan Kent pretty much sums up why Superman & Lois episode 3 is so good. Wait, really? Yes, stay with me for a minute… I loved the first two episodes of Superman & Lois. There’s no question about that. But there was a very slight nagging feeling in the back of my mind, that maybe this show was going to be a little too serious for its own good. That maybe in the process…

Why the Studio Kept Santa Claus Being in Miracle on 34th Street a Secret

New DVD release, , , , , ,
If you ever sit down to watch 20th Century Fox’s original trailer for Miracle on 34th Street, a few things might appear strange. Right off the bat it’s unique—unprecedented even—to market a new release without any real footage from the film. Other than a few seconds of the movie’s opening titles and an actual shot from the picture’s final seconds, audiences were told nothing about Miracle on 34th Street other than it was “hilarious!” “exciting!” and, dare they say it, “groovy!” There was of course a reason for this: 20th Century Fox, and more specifically studio head Darryl F. Zanuck,…

New DVD release, , , , , ,
Jurassic World: Dominion star Jeff Goldblum has revealed that there are post-production changes afoot for the movie’s plot which are being deliberately designed to make it more meaningful in a post-pandemic era. Goldblum, who has reprised his role as Dr. Ian Malcolm for the upcoming dino sequel alongside Chris Pratt, Bryce Dallas Howard, Sam Neill and Laura Dern, says that his Jurassic Park mathematician has always been vocal about the kind of scientific outlook and philosophy that has become a focus for many people during the events of 2020. “There are things that my character talks about, has always talked…

Zendaya Says Acting in Dune Was Like Being On Another World

New DVD release, , , ,
In the very first images that we see in the incredible new trailer for Dune, protagonist Paul Atreides (Timothée Chalamet) has a vision in which he sees a young woman and hears her calling his name.

Venture Bros. Canceled While Season 8 Was Being Written

New DVD release, , , , ,
Seventeen years and seven seasons (yes, the math is right…this show always took its time), it seems like we may have seen the last of Hank, Dean, and Doc Venture. Word broke on Twitter over the weekend that beloved cult animation series The Venture Bros. has been canceled. There are very few details at this time, but The Venture Bros. co-creator Jackson Publick did offer a brief statement on Twitter confirming the news. “Unfortunately, it’s true: #VentureBros has been canceled. We got the highly disappointing news a few months ago, while we were writing what would have been season 8.…

John Boyega Speaks Out About Being Sidelined in Star Wars

New DVD release, , , ,
We don’t deserve John Boyega, his inarguable acting talent, or his captivating Black Lives Matter speech, speaking to the world without fear of reprisal, which will undoubtedly go down as one of the most important moments of 2020/the decade. It’s a shame that we even live in a society where a Black actor would have to worry about “having a career” after speaking out against racial injustice and inequality. As Boyega would say, “Fuck that.” Boyega is once again speaking out in a new interview with GQ, this time about being one of the stars of the Star Wars Sequel…

Star Citizen Fans Are Starting to Wonder Why The Game Isn’t Being Updated

New DVD release, , , ,
Star Citizen fans are beginning to suspect that something’s not quite right as they’ve started asking developer Cloud Imperium Games for more updates regarding the controversial game’s progress. This particular round of “We need to talk about Star Citizen” was prompted by the release of a Star Citizen development roadmap in March. Hilariously (depending on how much money you’ve spent on the game so far), the roadmap largely consisted of this statement which explained why there would be no traditional roadmap: “When we first embarked on this Roadmap journey two years ago, our goal was to make communication more transparent,…

Hellraiser TV Series Being Developed by HBO

New DVD release, , ,
Somewhere in the bowels of HBO right now, there is probably an executive smirking, “We have such sights to show you.” After all, the prospect of a big budget television adaptation of the Hellraiser franchise on the premium cable network would be a hell of a sight, indeed. Deadline was the first to report HBO has made a deal to develop a Hellraiser TV series that comes with some big names attached, including David Gordon Green at the top of the list. Green became a horror genre darling after successfully rebooting Halloween for its 40th anniversary in 2018 with a…
