Ben Stiller is no stranger to sequels. After all, he’s done countless Meet the Parents, Madagascar and Night at the Museum movies. But, until recently, there had been a number of Stiller classics without a follow-up, like There’s Something About Mary, Tropic Thunder and Zoolander. Fortunately, the latter finally gets the sequel treatment with Zoolander 2 (also known as Zoolander No. 2 on certain promotional material). Like its predecessor, this movie is directed and co-written by Stiller, and will be released in theaters February 12, 2016....

Since Netflix became a main player in the television landscape, few series on the streaming giant have had quite the same enthusiasm and irreverent humor that the beloved sitcom Unbreakable Kimmy Schmidt had. The series followed Ellie Kemper’s Kimmy Schmidt, a cheerful yet childlike young woman who made a life for herself after being freed from the cult she’d been abducted into as a middle school student. Unbreakable Kimmy Schmidt also featured standout performances from Tituss Burgess as Kimmy’s loud and proud roommate Titus Andromedon; Jane Krakowski as Kimmy’s onetime employer and later friend Jacqueline White; and Carol Kane as Kimmy’s zany, one of a kind landlady Lillian Kaushtupper....

Two years after 10 Cloverfield Lane and ten years after the original Cloverfield, The Cloverfield Paradox was released. This third film in the Cloververse got a surprise trailer during Super Bowl LII and was even available to stream on Netflix after the game. While fans had been dying for another Cloverfield installment, The Cloverfield Paradox got mostly negative reviews from fans and critics. The third film attempted to tie all of the Cloverfield films together by having astronauts accidentally rip a hole in time and space in an attempt to solve an energy crisis....

Spring is nearly upon us, which means it’s time to clean out everything we don’t need anymore. Hopefully TV networks are feeling the same way, because there are a bunch of shows on the air that aren’t looking that fresh anymore. Whether they started out fun and full of potential, or just never really hit their stride to begin with, these shows just aren’t doing it for us anymore. Not every show on this list is completely awful....

There are a few directors who are so renowned that moviegoers can’t get enough of their stuff. So, while many film projects come and go from their development slates, because their fans want to know when they can expect their next project, we get to hear about every project they’re involved with in the earliest stages of development. James Cameron, Guillermo del Toro, Quentin Tarantino, Steven Spielberg, and J.J. Abrams are among these directors....

Every comic book fan has had this debate at one time or another, “Who would win in a battle between…” There are numerous powerhouses in the Marvel universe, but none with more epic levels of power than these! Focusing on more than just physical strength, and looking at pure power, such as energy and matter manipulation (and not including the cosmic entities such as Ego: The Living Planet or the Elders of the Universe, or the Gods such as Zeus and Odin that are as often adversaries), here are the 13 Most Powerful Superheroes in the Marvel Universe....

[This is a review of the 13 Reasons Why premiere. There will be SPOILERS.] – In recent years, Netflix has been building up its library of original content by introducing critically acclaimed programs like House of Cards and Orange is the New Black, establishing their own corner of the Marvel Cinematic Universe with The Defenders shows, and continuing the legacies of previously cancelled series with Arrested Development, Gilmore Girls: A Year in the Life, and Fuller House....

Movies are many things to many people. Some are merely entertainment, quickly forgotten. To others, they are nothing less than art. Some provide social commentary, others become deeply personal and make you re-evaluate your life and ask questions you’d never thought to ask. Here at Screen Rant, we examine 14 Movies That Will Make You Rethink Your Life. Warning: MAJOR spoilers ahead! 14. Fight Club (1999) One of the first overly violent films to be released after the Columbine tragedy, Fight Clubwas mauled by many critics who saw it as a savage assault on middle America and its values....

The greatest revelation from the last Game of Thrones episode is that every American household learned that their television’s brightness settings had supposedly been too low this entire time. There are also many other things that this season has yet to reveal. There’s no denying the fact that Game of Thrones likes to take its time when delivering big narrative pay offs. The show has so much mythology and family drama that it’s sometimes difficult to keep up with all of the sub-plots....

Judd Apatow returns to filmmaking with his latest, The King of Staten Island. Starring, and co-written, by Pete Davidson the film is a semi-biographical adaptation of Davidson’s life; he plays Scott and 20-something man, still living at home and still adjusting to the death of his father. It’s the type of material that Apatow excels at. His characters (while also falling into ridiculous or embarrassing situations) often find themselves trying to joke their way through tragic or uncomfortable circumstances....

Oh look, life found a way and we now have our very own meme ecosystem on the internet for Jurassic Park. It can’t be helped; in the face of Michael Crichton’s mere literary greatness and Steven Spielberg’s film genius, were are but mere bacteria; but boy do we know how to form a culture, as all bacteria do. So, this is the end result of all the running, screaming, and clever girl casualties from the Jurassic Park franchise, memes....

Logan Lucky is one of the most underrated movies of the past few years. The film marked Steven Soderbergh’s retirement in a fantastic manner, proving that the director was going out with a bang rather than with a whimper. While Logan Lucky was a fantastic movie, it is also important to remember that the film was heavily inspired and influenced by the plethora of heist films that came before it, such as the Italian Job and Ocean’s 11....

Going into last month, it wasn’t difficult to guess that films like John Wick: Chapter 2 and The LEGO Batman Movie would build upon the successes of their predecessors. In fact, the latter is currently the year’s highest-grossing domestic release. However, that likely won’t be the case for long, considering the heavy hitters coming to a theater near you in March. With each passing year, the concept of a “summer movie season” is becoming more and more outdated, with studios putting out anticipated franchise installments and big-budget fare all year round....

Because your business’ ability to build a following and convert customers means answering questions backed up by data. For example, which social network deserves the bulk of your time and budget? What are your top-performing pieces of content? What’s the overall impact of your brand’s social presence on your business? On top of answering these questions, according to Sprout’s 2019 Social Index, 63% of marketers are expected to discuss social ROI with their bosses to justify their spending for campaigns....

Even though the Academy Awards are largely considered the most important award show in Hollywood, it doesn’t mean everyone always agrees on the eventual Oscar winners. Just go on social media during any awards season and you will see plenty of debates about the merits of particular films that won over films people thought were overrated. Academy Awards should be seen more as a guidepost for popular, prestigious films, but not necessarily a hard and fast rule declaring the best of the best....

During its run, Community was one of the most consistently funny shows on television. It featured an incredibly versatile and talented cast including Joel McHale, Alison Brie, Donald Glover, Ken Jeong, Danny Pudi, and more. Though it never picked up big ratings, Community managed to make it to six seasons but fans know we’re still waiting for the movie. There are a lot of shows, especially comedies, that don’t stand the test of time....

While The Avengers and The Dark Knight may wield more weight in the cinematic arena that Fox’sX-Men, the sixteen-year-old franchise has undoubtedly trumped all other superheros when it comes to sheer variety. An original trilogy (2000-2006), a pair of middling Wolverine solo outings (2009, 2013), and a prequel/spinoff (2011) have each struck with varying levels of success, peaking with 2014’s mega-hit Days of Future Past. Reuniting with original director Bryan Singer, Past opted to rewrite the X-Men rulebook, reset the timeline, and in the process, reinvigorated the entire series....

Tony Stark might be the role that Robert Downey Jr. was born to play, but he had a decades-long career before he took up the mantle of Iron Man. While RDJ definitely had many ups and downs in his career and his personal life, he had many standout roles, and some rather hilarious ones, that Marvel fans might not be aware of. If you love Robert Downey Jr. and Tony Stark, you’ll definitely want to check out these films....

Bringing any literary work to the big screen is no easy task. An author may often feel like they can’t trust just anyone to bring their vision to life. So, it makes sense that some authors would follow the old adage of “if you want something done right, do it yourself.” You’d be surprised just how many authors made the transition from page to screen. Some of the greatest films of all time were inspired by literary works, though not all of them had the author’s pen involved in the process....

WARNING: The following article contains major spoilers for Avengers: Endgame, in theaters now. Fans of the Marvel Cinematic Universe showed up at theaters in droves to see Avengers: Endgame, which shattered opening weekend records, earning over $1 billion at the worldwide box office.
