I recently got a sneak peek at the making of this sci-fi sequel, and it’s fascinating! The writer-director, Fede Álvarez, kicks things off with a video intro, then we get a really in-depth conversation with Alex Nice, Matthew Savage, and Joshua Viers – the key people who actually built this world. They’ll be talking about what it took to bring the film to life, and each of their specific talents. ScreenRant’s Todd Gilchrist is leading the discussion, and I’m really excited to hear all the behind-the-scenes details.

“A House of Dynamite” is a gripping thriller that also feels like a stark warning about the dangers of living in the age of nuclear weapons. The screenplay, by Noah Oppenheim, unfolds like a realistic military and political investigation with a feel reminiscent of 1990s thrillers. However, it’s director Kathryn Bigelow’s masterful skill and precise direction that truly drive the film. She expertly manages the complex plot and keeps viewers completely engaged from beginning to end.

The movie Wicked was a major success in 2024, bringing in $756 million worldwide. In the United States and Canada, it earned $473 million, a total no other film has reached since its release. The film also received significant recognition at the Academy Awards, earning 10 nominations and winning two awards. Critics loved Wicked too, giving it an 88% ‘Certified Fresh’ rating and a 95% ‘Verified Hot’ score on Rotten Tomatoes.

It’s unusual for an attraction to be downgraded during an update, but that’s what appears to be happening with Remy’s Ratatouille Adventure at Epcot. Like the ride in Paris, the Epcot version will undergo refurbishment next month and will have its 3D video replaced with standard 2D video.

Bruce Springsteen’s new film, Deliver Me from Nowhere, debuted at the Telluride Film Festival last month to a very strong and emotional response. Deadline magazine captured the overall excitement, calling it a refreshing change from typical music biopics and praising it as a thoughtful, unhurried look inside the artist’s mind.

As a lifelong Godzilla fan, I’ve seen a lot of monsters, and honestly, the worst ones are usually just…embarrassing. They’re often silly and weak, and really drag the whole franchise down. Sometimes, they’re not even developed enough to be interesting, which leads to pretty forgettable battles. Ultimately, these monsters weren’t just defeated by Godzilla – they kind of defeated the movies themselves, making for some seriously low points. They almost managed to ruin the fun, not just in the fights, but for the whole series.

A new TV series will have the chance to include details that the Harry Potter movies left out, but because the story has been told before, some fans are questioning the need for another adaptation. Despite this, many are eager to see the Wizarding World expand, particularly with a prequel focusing on the earlier years – a project fans have long requested. Recently, Andrew Garfield, known for his portrayal of Remus Lupin, spoke about the films in an interview with GQ.

Quentin Tarantino has praised Hellraiser as one of the most shocking films of the 1980s in several interviews. He highlighted that Clive Barker, a relatively new director at the time, successfully adapted his own story into a truly remarkable and groundbreaking movie, even surpassing more established filmmakers of that era.

The new movie, a follow-up to the popular YouTube series “Paranormal Paranoids,” feels hesitant about what it’s trying to do and how it’s doing it. It starts strong with a genuinely creepy opening, but after that, writer-director Chris Stuckmann switches from the found footage style to a more traditional thriller format—a choice that unfortunately leads the film into predictable and tired horror clichés.

According to The Hollywood Reporter, Witt and Ulrich are the latest actors to join the cast of the upcoming horror-comedy The Big Kill. The film, produced by Live Nation Studios, is currently being directed by Todd Berger, who also wrote The Curse of Bridge Hollow.
