After The Rise of Skywalker hit theaters last December, John Boyega began speaking more freely about what it was like working on the property, and the negative side to playing Finn. He's revealed the racist backlash he faced from the fandom, and used his platform to speak about the Black experience. Boyega recently explained why he won't be happy to "just take the money and shush" moving forward. Despite this reportedly being the expectation, the actor/producer won't put up with that status quo, as he went on to explain,...

Clearly Ryan Reynolds is holding a bit of a grudge here, but honestly, would you expect anything less? If these two weren't trading insults or tossing passive aggressive snark back and forth, would the rest of us even know what to do with ourselves? If there was anything even remotely meanspirited in the whole thing it would be different, but these two are clearly good friends and they enjoy the fun, and finding new ways to prod each other, as much as the rest of us....

Justin Simien assembled an amazing cast to bring this very specific story to life. The names include Jay Pharoah, Vanessa Williams, Lena Waithe, Usher, Kelly Rowling, and Laverne Cox. The movie leans on elements of camp, and Simien helps to immerse audiences in the storytelling thanks to a grainy late '80s filter effect. And with so much outstanding Black talent behind and in front of the camera, it is definitely not one to miss....

Technically, the synopsis, published by Kaiju News Outlet on Twitter, is for the novelization of the upcoming movie. The book is set to hit shelves in May, just a few days after the movie arrives both in theaters and on HBO Max, but it does give us an idea of what we'll be in for the film arrives, and in this case that's epic destruction, with civilization as we know it caught in the crossfire....

According to Bradley Pierce in the same interview, this seemingly small kindness may have been larger than it appears. Pierce explains that by insisting the kids be sent home instead of spending more time filming in the water, Robin Williams cost the production around $100,000. Williams spoke out when not many others would, as Pierce also says that working child actors into overtime was not an uncommon practice....

Again, this new deal between Warner Bros and Legendary Entertainment hasn’t been cemented yet, but if it is, Dune will revert to a traditional release, which should please director Denis Villenueve.

I used to ask Roger, I said, ‘Look, how do you decide where you’re going to do the next, what the next Bond film is going to be?’ Because they were running out of books, of course. He said, ‘Oh, we get together and decide where we want to have our next vacation, and then we write a story around it.’ I went, ‘Ok, well that makes sense.’ … They chose locations first, and then decided on the script that would fit it. They don’t do that now, not under...
