Watch the American Animals trailer below. Remember Barry Keoghan, the weird boy from The Killing of a Sacred Deer? He’s back, in another kind-of-animal-themed story! Keoghan leads a cast that includes Evan Peters, Blake Jenner, Jared Abrahamson, Ann Dowd, and Udo Mother Effing Kier....

‘Atomic Blonde’ Trailer: Charlize Theron Is A Little Bit Of James Bond, A Little Bit Of John Wick By Jacob Hall/March 10, 2017 8:23 am EST In Mad Max: Fury Road, Charlize Theron created one of the greatest action heroines of all time with Imperator Furiosa. So, no pressure on secret agent Lorraine Broughton, her character in the new Cold War spy thriller Atomic Blonde. However, if Theron is going to create another truly great cinematic badass, teaming up with one of the minds behind John Wick is a great start....

‘Avatar’ Producer Reveals Official Start Date For Standalone Sequels By Ben Pearson/June 22, 2017 12:00 pm EST I learned a long time ago to think twice before doubting James Cameron. When everyone in Hollywood thought he was in the midst of an over-budgeted disaster, Cameron delivered what became the highest grossing movie of all time. The fact that the previous sentence could be referring to either Titanic or Avatar and be equally accurate is absolutely nuts, and while I’ve made my fair share of jokes about the upcoming Avatar sequels never getting off the ground, we now know exactly when Cameron will be diving back into the alien world of Pandora to begin filming....

Marvel Studios has been no stranger to huge blockbuster success stories since the company’s inception a decade ago, but their most recent cinematic effort, Black Panther, is kicking things to a whole new level. As of today, the film is now the ninth highest grossing movie of all time at the United States box office....

‘Godzilla’ Shared Universe On The Way From Toho By Chris Evangelista/May 21, 2018 12:30 pm EST Toho is creating their own Godzilla shared universe. Not to be confused with Legendary Entertainment’s MonsterVerse, Toho’s shared universe will launch after Toho’s deal with Warner Bros. and Legendary comes to a close after 2021. Here’s a nice reminder that there’s still good news left in the movie world: Toho is planning a Godzilla shared universe....

‘Jurassic World: Fallen Kingdom’ Originally Went Further Into The ‘Jurassic World 3’ Story By Hoai-Tran Bui/April 23, 2018 10:15 am EST When Colin Trevorrow first signed on to direct Jurassic World, he mapped out the plot of an entire trilogy. Even as he stepped away from Jurassic World: Fallen Kingdom, with J.A. Bayona stepping into the director’s chair, Trevorrow still had a hand in crafting where the new Jurassic trilogy would go....

‘Justice League’ Is Officially The Lowest-Grossing DCEU Movie By Chris Evangelista/March 20, 2018 12:00 pm EST No one could’ve predicted this, but Justice League has ended its theatrical run as the lowest-grossing DCEU film to date. Even Suicide Squad somehow made more money than DC’s huge superhero team-up film. So what happened with the Justice League box office? While I wasn’t a fan of Justice League, I was all-but-sure that the film would do well at the box office....

‘Kitty Pryde’ Movie All But Confirmed As Tim Miller And Brian Michael Bendis Team For ‘143’ By Chris Evangelista/Feb. 13, 2018 7:00 am EST 143 is likely a code name, referring to Uncanny X-Men No. 143, one of the first solo Kitty Pryde stories, in which the character goes head to head against a demon inside the X-Mansion, aka Xavier’s School for Gifted Youngsters. If 143 is, indeed, the Kitty Pryde film, it won’t be the character’s first on screen incarnation....

‘My Entire High School Sinking Into The Sea’ Trailer: School Overboard By Jack Giroux/Feb. 23, 2017 4:00 pm EST I imagine at least a few of you reading this are in high school. Maybe you’re even in class at this very moment. Perhaps you’re bored in computer class, anticipating your daily extra-long bathroom break and casual stroll down the hallway. What if the next time you’re taking a little break from class, you notice the whole school happens to be going underwater?...

‘Psychokinesis’ Trailer: A Super-Powered Comedy From The Director Of ‘Train To Busan’ By Ben Pearson/Jan. 19, 2018 4:00 pm EST Yeon Sang-ho, the South Korean filmmaker behind the completely bonkers 2016 zombie movie Train to Busan, is back. And on the off chance you were worried he might tone things down a bit in his newest movie, you can safely put those worries to rest: Psychokinesis is bursting with a new batch of wild antics, and this thing looks like a total blast....

‘Stranger Things’ Season 2 Cliffhanger Probably Sets Up A Third Season By Hoai-Tran Bui/June 2, 2017 10:30 am EST The first season of Stranger Things captivated, baffled, and frustrated us — and the second season promises to do all that and more. That includes upping the stakes on a cliff-hanging finale, which star Gaten Matarazzo (who plays the scene-stealing Dustin) promises the second season will end on. The first season, which had no guarantee for a sequel, ended on Will (Noah Schnapp) ominously vomiting up a creepy slug and Chief Hopper (David Harbour) leaving a box of Eleven’s (Millie Bobby Brown) favorite Eggo waffles out in the forest....

‘The Gracefield Incident’ Trailer: A Recording Prosthetic Eye Witnesses An Alien Invasion By Ben Pearson/June 13, 2017 2:30 pm EST One of the biggest complaints we tend to have about movies presented in the found footage style is always, “Why would these people keep the cameras rolling in these intense situations?” A new movie called The Gracefield Incident seems to have found a nice way around that pesky problem: the protagonist implants a camera into his prosthetic eye so he can record an upcoming vacation with his friends, but he also manages to witness a terrifying alien invasion during the trip....

‘The Polka King’ Trailer: Netflix Film Stars Jack Black As A Dancing Con Man By Hoai-Tran Bui/Dec. 15, 2017 8:30 am EST Life truly can be stranger than fiction. In The Polka King, based on a true story, Jack Black plays Jan Lewan, a real-life polka dancer who fell from grace after he conned an entire town with a Ponzi scheme. The Polka King, a black comedy that Netflix bought after it premiered at the Sundance Film Festival in January, has released a first trailer, and it lives up to its wacky premise....

‘Westworld’ Images: Where You Can Be Whoever You Want By Jack Giroux/Aug. 21, 2016 10:00 am EST After a delay and some production issues, Jonathan Nolan, J.J. Abrams, and Lisa Joy’s reimagining of Michael Crichton’s 1973 film Westworld is finally coming to HBO. The show was originally scheduled to arrive in 2015, but Nolan and all involved were allotted more time to get the show back on track. The latest trailer for the series — which is part western, part science-fiction — promised an ambitious, large-scale production....

Cool Stuff: ‘Rick And Morty’, ‘Ghostbusters’, ‘Stranger Things’ & More Are Getting Chia Pets By Ethan Anderton/Sept. 6, 2018 6:00 am EST Anyone who survived the 1980s and 1990s are more than familiar with the Chia Pet, mostly because of their infectious commercial jingle (“Ch-ch-ch-chia!”) that always seems to be playing on a TV late at night. But Chia Pets have come a long way since the early days of rams and sheep....

Cool Stuff: ‘Stranger Things’ Action Figures From Funko By Ben Pearson/June 17, 2017 10:00 am EST Funko may be best known for their Pop! Vinyl toy line, but now the company has created a batch of Stranger Things action figures based on popular characters from the supernatural Netflix series. After taking a look at these figures, I’m guessing collectors who love the show would be willing to dive into the Upside Down in order to get their hands on these things....

Cool Stuff: Celebrate Merry Rickmas With ‘Rick And Morty’ Holiday Gear For A Limited Time By Ethan Anderton/Dec. 12, 2017 6:00 am EST There are only two weeks until Christmas arrives, but that’s plenty of time for you to get schwifty with some killer new holiday gear courtesy of Adult Swim’s fantastic animated series Rick and Morty. Under normal circumstances, there’s no good reason to go into a Spencer’s gifts unless you need to get something for your dirtbag friend, or you just need a tacky white elephant Christmas gift....

Cool Stuff: This ‘Rogue One’ Fan Built An Incredible Life-Size K-2SO Puppet By Ethan Anderton/April 20, 2017 5:00 am EST There are plenty of dedicated Star Wars fans out there who pour money into creating intricate, detailed costumes that allow them to dress up as their favorite characters. There are even more technically skilled fans who have been able to build working versions of droids like R2-D2. But how does a fan build a droid like K-2SO?...
