‘The Boss Baby’ goes viral in the most ominous fashion

Up until yesterday, there was nothing particularly memorable about The Boss Baby, other than the fact the 2017 animated feature marked the last credited appearance of Tobey Maguire, something that may or may not be about to change when Spider-Man: No Way Home comes to theaters in exactly three weeks.

It was lightweight, inoffensive fluff to keep younger audiences occupied, with the movie going on to earn a surprisingly hefty $528 million at the box office, even if reviews topped out at a steadfastly tepid 53% on Rotten Tomatoes. Sequel Family Business was shuffled onto the big screen and Peacock earlier this year to very little fanfare, but The Boss Baby is now back in the most terrifying fashion imaginable.

Test footage of Jason Momoa’s ‘The Crow’ resurfaces online

Having celebrated the 27th anniversary of its release this past May, The Crow found itself back in the headlines under tragic circumstances recently, after parallels were drawn between the fatal shooting of Rust cinematographer Halyna Hutchins and the death of Brandon Lee.

Even though more than a quarter of a century has passed since Alex Proyas’ Gothic comic book adaptation hit theaters, where it was ultimately followed by several disappointing sequels, trying to get a reboot off the ground has been proving nigh-on impossible since it was first announced to be in development back in 2008.

The James Bond debate begins after producers reveal casting talks have started

No Time to Die still hasn’t finished its theatrical run yet, having recently become the highest-grossing Hollywood blockbuster to release since Star Wars: The Rise of Skywalker thanks to a box office total sitting at $735 million heading into the weekend, but that doesn’t mean fans can’t speculate on the identity of the next James Bond already.

Daniel Craig’s sage advice to his successor was “don’t be sh*t”, which are wise words indeed. The shortlist has thrown up several interesting contenders over the last couple of months, with The Umbrella Academy and Resident Evil: Welcome to Raccoon City star Tom Hopper recently addressing his status as one of the current front-runners.

A deranged B-movie is slashing through the competition on streaming

Robert Rodriguez and Quentin Tarantino’s Grindhouse experiment was a noble failure, with the best buds and filmmaking duo severely overestimating how much casual audiences share their love for classic exploitation cinema and a double-feature broken up by an intermission.

The movie wound up bombing hard at the box office, so much so that the studio opted to individually release Death Proof and Planet Terror overseas in an effort to recoup the losses, but the one silver lining was that it managed to give Danny Trejo an action franchise to call his own.

MCU Fans Arguing if ‘Spider-Man: No Way Home’ or ‘Doctor Strange 2’ Will Be Bigger

In exactly three weeks, the wait will finally be over when Spider-Man: No Way Home comes to theaters, where it’s virtually guaranteed to become the biggest box office hit of the pandemic era, and quite possibly the first movie to reach a billion dollars since Star Wars: The Rise of Skywalker.

Tom Holland is going to have his hands full battling villains from the Sam Raimi and Marc Webb franchises, but we’re all expecting him to get an assist from Tobey Maguire and Andrew Garfield in what’s shaping up to be a multiversal smackdown for the ages that leaves jaws on the floor.

A fast-paced sports thriller is the latest surprise hit on Disney Plus

The introduction of the STAR expansion for international subscribers has seen content that would typically be reserved for Hulu make its way to the Disney Plus library, which has in turn dramatically altered the complexion of the platform’s most-watched list.

This week alone, we’ve seen the R-rated duo of blockbuster sci-fi actioner Terminator: Dark Fate and chilling psychological horror The Night House perform incredibly well among viewers, and the latest to make a splash is a gripping sports drama bolstered by two top-tier performances from a pair of A-list stars.

The internet questions which of 2021’s comic book movies are the best

It’s a smart move to get this particular discussion out of the way before Spider-Man: No Way Home arrives, because based on how loud and rabid the web-slinging fanbase have been the closer we get to the release of Tom Holland’s third solo outing, the rest of the competition will barely get a mention.

Thanks partly to the pandemic, it’s been a very mixed year for the blockbuster comic book adaptation, with critical acclaim constantly battling against fan support and box office dollars, with only one of the year’s major superhero titles arguably managing to land the complete trifecta.

A low-key Tom Cruise thriller is stomping up the Netflix charts

Tom Cruise does not make small movies, and even when he does lower the scope and scale somewhat, he’s still churning out broad, crowd-pleasing genre films. The actor hasn’t starred in anything resembling a straightforward drama since 2007’s Lion for Lambs, and that doesn’t look as though it’s going to change anytime soon.

In fact, if you include the seventh and eighth installments in the Mission: Impossible franchise and Top Gun: Maverick, then only five of Cruise’s sixteen most recent movies have cost less than $100 million to produce, with just two of them coming in with budgets under $75 million.

Keanu Reeves thanks Will Smith for turning down ‘The Matrix’

It’s long since gone down in Hollywood folklore that Will Smith turned down the role of Neo in The Matrix in favor of Wild Wild West, a mistake that still haunts him to this day after he recently admitted the movie’s failure remains a thorn in his side.

Instead, Keanu Reeves ended up headlining the groundbreaking sci-fi actioner, which made a killing at the box office on top of winning widespread critical acclaim and having a massive influence on the next decade of cinema. In less than a month, the beloved star will be back in The Matrix Resurrections, eighteen years since we last saw him in the signature shades and leather trench coat combo.

One of the few criticisms audiences had of Denis Villenueve’s Dune wasn’t a concern that was shared by those familiar with the source material, or even the majority of casual audiences who checked out the epic sci-fi on either the big screen or HBO Max.

Instead, in a display of her massive popularity and global fanbase, there was uproar on the internet that Zendaya’s total screentime in a movie that ran for 156 minutes ran to roughly seven. Fear not, though, because Villenueve has already confirmed that her contributions to sequel Part Two will be significantly increased, to the extent that she’ll be just as integral to the story as Timothée Chalamet.

Fans do a double take as Arnold Schwarzenegger’s son shoots new movie

As one of the most iconic action heroes to ever grace the silver screen, it was inevitable that at least one of Arnold Schwarzenegger’s five children would follow in his footsteps by trying to carve out an acting career.

Eldest daughter Katherine is a successful author that’s continued the Hollywood connections by marrying Chris Pratt, while 28 year-old Patrick’s onscreen endeavors have largely seen him stick to drama and romance. However, Joseph Baena looks to hewing closely to the template that turned his old man into a superstar, by getting incredibly buff and taking his shirt off.

Denzel Washington’s new movie scores poor test screening reactions

Denzel Washington is both one of the greatest actors and most popular movie stars of the modern era, boasting a consistent track record of box office success that makes him the envy of his peers, while he’s also got two Academy Award wins from eight nominations under his belt.

While his on-camera resume is impeccable, his directorial career has been much more muted so far. That’s not to say his output has been terrible, but it’s definitely been distinctly more low-key. Antwone Fisher, The Great Debaters and Fences were all intimate character-driven pieces, and the latter was the only one that caught on in a major way after landing four Oscar nominations, with Viola Davis walking away as Best Supporting Actress.

Michael Bay is proud that ‘Armageddon’ predicted NASA asteroid mission

On Wednesday morning, NASA launched a particularly cool space mission. Code-named DART (Double Asteroid Redirection Test), the project will fire a rocket at the asteroid Dimorphos, hoping to alter its trajectory. The idea is that if Earth was ever threatened by a ‘planet killer’ asteroid, plans like this could be humanity’s last line of defense.

If you’ve seen Michael Bay’s Armageddon this is all going to sound very familiar. The 1998 movie saw Earth in similar peril, with NASA resorting to sending a ragtag drilling crew into space to blow up the asteroid. That’s not quite what’s happening here, but the basic concept is the same.

Fans debate which amazing acting talent Marvel Studios wasted most

A hero is nothing without a villain, and the MCU has had some humdingers. Highlights go all the way back to Iron Man‘s Obadiah Stane, as played by a forceful and charismatic Jeff Bridges. Since then, we’ve seen awesome turns from Tom Hiddleston as Loki, Cate Blanchett as Hela, Michael B. Jordan as Killmonger, and Michael Keaton as Vulture to name just a few.

But there are a lot of amazing actors whose potential has been wasted by Marvel Studios. An ongoing Reddit thread is discussing some of them: ranging from top actors cast in roles too small for them or simply talent buried under a bad script and movie.

Leon S. Kennedy actor talks playing the hero in ‘Resident Evil: Welcome to Raccoon City’

Of all the Resident Evil heroes, Leon S. Kennedy is probably the most loved. He began his journey into the dark world of survival horror in 1998’s Resident Evil 2, in which he was a rookie cop experiencing the worst possible first night on the job.

But his evening battling biological monstrosities hardened him and by the time of the smash-hit Resident Evil 4 he was a roundhouse-kickin’, one-liner spoutin’, Ganados-blastin’ badass. That would continue through his appearance in Resident Evil 6, with the younger version of him also getting some love in the awesome Resident Evil 2 Remake. All of which means all eyes were on Avan Jogia as he stepped into the role in Resident Evil: Welcome to Raccoon City.

The hard-hitting drama about a fallen MMA fighter making a comeback against all odds to secure a better life for her son is riddled with cliches and positively oozing formula, but it’s nonetheless an accomplished first-time feature from the Academy Award winner, who also happens to give a suitably gripping performance as Jacky Justice.

With the absence of box office dollars as a barometer of success, Netflix needed Red Notice to post some major viewership numbers to justify an investment that ran to well over $200 million, and the mega budget action blockbuster looks to have delivered on that front, and then some.

Disney Plus may have passed 118 million subscribers in the first two years of its existence, which is an incredible number of customers for what’s essentially a startup streaming service, but the platform isn’t without its flaws.

One of the most notable is that the Mouse House’s in-house service regularly comes under fire for a lack of original or engaging content that doesn’t hail from either Star Wars or the Marvel Cinematic Universe. While Disney Plus has definitely upped its game, it’s hard to think of a title from outside those two monolithic franchises that’s managed to seize the zeitgeist.
