In television, celebrity guest stars are quite common. It doesn’t feel out of place when Sheldon Cooper runs into someone like James Earl Jones, Stan Lee, or Stephen Hawking because The Big Bang Theory is a hugely popular show and can, therefore, attract big-name guests. Audiences forgive the lack of realism because we enjoy seeing celebrities poke fun at themselves. However, a movie needs more staying power than an episode of television....
On a casual first watch, the How I Met Your Mother gang seem like friendship goals - and roommate goals! Marshall, Lily, and Ted have known each other and lived together for years, and they are still best friends. They have the kind of apartment that twenty-something New Yorkers dream of: a huge space with plenty of room for friends and parties (and a phonebooth, and a goat, and…), above a cool bar where they always drink with their friends....
This weekend’s discussion of the Sony a6300 got me thinking about the iPhone’s camera, and how great it can be when wielded properly. Our own Ben Lovejoy shared his tips for taking good iPhone photos a few months ago, and now I’d like to share my 10 go-to tips for snapping better iPhone pictures. Clean your camera lens It seems obvious, but you wouldn’t believe how many times I’ve taken a photo only to realize that my lens was smudged or dirty....
Together, DC and Warner Bros. have created some of the greatest animated comic book films to date. Really setting the standard for what an animated superhero adventure could and should be, they continue to produce quality entertainment with their animated division. In fact, the infamous Batman story, The Killing Joke, is now getting the DC animated treatment, with voice actors Mark Hamill (the Joker) and Kevin Conroy (Batman) both returning to the roles that have made them legends....
Mad Men is one of the greatest television shows of all time, with a fantastic storyline following the life of Don Draper, focusing on his work, relationships, and family life and all the ups and downs that come with that. However, one big reason why the show was such a hit is because of the detailed side characters. The show does a fantastic job of building up various characters, telling tons of different stories alongside the main featured one, which is why it is easy to invest in every character that appears....
Marvel fans were left devastated earlier this year when Netflix decided to cancel The Punisher after just two seasons. After years of waiting, we finally had a screen version of Frank Castle who was as brutally violent as he is in the comics. Jon Bernthal had nailed the character’s gruff mentality and fans were excited to see his story continue on the streaming service for years to come. But then Netflix decided to gut all of its shows with ties to Disney in the wake of Disney’s challenge to them with the announcement of Disney+....

One of the most enduring tropes in horror and science fiction is the mad scientist, the villain who wreaks havoc with a scalpel, a few test tubes full of questionable chemicals, and a slew of unfortunate victims. Often disavowed by their own professional colleagues, these characters are thirsty for blood and control, and they have no interest in ceasing their abominable experiments. For many of the crazed laboratory dwellers on this list, the stakes are high, and the more gruesome the exercise, the better....
Given the creative, and seemingly boundless premise of The Matrix - a completely constructed virtual world - the potential for a colorful array of interesting villains is endless. And the Wachowski’s live up to this potential throughout this epic trilogy, crafting a variety of rich and distinct villains. Their characteristics, motives, and abilities may be vastly different from one another. They range from machines to human companions to programs that only exist in the virtual realm....

After the events of “Crisis on Infinite Earths,” the Arrowverse has definite “Pre-Crisis” and “Post-Crisis” eras. Supergirl now finds its characters, city, and organizations on the same Earth as the rest of the Arrowverse. These shows have always provided plenty of storylines and mysteries every season, but now in addition to the ones we normally have, the Post-Crisis world offers even more....
Aside from the obvious language difference, there is something unique about the horror films that come out of Spanish-speaking territories. Countries like Spain and Mexico have especially made their mark in the genre. In recent years, filmmakers from these places have effectively combined elements of their culture with horror. Horror is one genre that is perfect for allegory and metaphor. Which is precisely why so many Spanish-language movies gravitate towards it....
It doesn’t happen too often, but when Adam Sandler stars in a well-acclaimed movie that requires him to give a dramatic performance, he usually delivers. Titles such as Punch Drunk Love, The Meyerowitz Stories, and even Funny People all showcased a side of Sandler we hadn’t seen before. Now cue up Uncut Gems, the gritty new crime thriller from filmmaking brothers Josh and Bennie Safdie. The film stars Sandler as a seedy New York jeweler who gets in way over his head when the opportunity of a lifetime presents itself....
Last Oscar season, Bradley Cooper and Lady Gaga took the world by storm with a contemporary remake of A Star is Born. The story is decades old, but it’s timeless. Every generation has its own version of A Star is Born, and thanks to impeccable performances and chemistry from Cooper and Gaga, a script that does interesting things with the now-familiar story structure, and deft, minimalist direction by first-time filmmaker Cooper, this generation’s version is a doozy....

So far they have done The Jungle Book, Beauty and the Beast, Cinderella, Dumbo, Christopher Robin, and Maleficent. That’s already a lot but far more are coming and Aladdin is one of them. Disney’s animated Aladdin came out back in 1992 and was a huge hit, winning two Academy Awards, Best Original Score, and Best Original Song for “A Whole New World....

One year after Jordan Peele shed his image as a sketch comic to become one of horror cinema’s most visionary and resonant directors with Get Out, John Krasinski shed his image as The Office’s Jim Halpert to do the same with A Quiet Place. In a movie-going landscape where ear-piercing, robots-on-robots smash-‘em-ups rule supreme, Krasinski managed to make a huge splash at the box office with what is essentially a silent movie....
