HBO’s Game of Thrones has been making headlines for several reasons in Season 7, whether it be for the Game of Thrones leaked episode from a few weeks ago, or the ongoing cyber-attack that has resulted in the leak of scripts and even personal data of the show’s stars. Regardless of all that drama, the show is still pulling in huge numbers, breaking yet another ratings record with Sunday night’s episode Eastwatch, which brought in 10....

They’re crossing to the final front-ear. The Nimoy family has donated Leonard Nimoy’s original Spock prosthetic ears to the Smithsonian National Air and Space Museum. The ears just arrived at the Smithsonian as of this past Saturday. In celebration of the arrival of the new entry to the museum, the Smithsonian uploaded an unboxing video. The video, which can be viewed below, is hosted by museum curator Margaret Weitekamp.

Ahead of the premiere of House of the Dragon, original author George R. R. Martin has expressed his frustration about the original Game of Thrones series getting cut short. After eight seasons, Game of Thrones ended controversially with many fans critical of the final episodes. One common complaint was that the final season felt “rushed” with every major storyline reaching a sudden conclusion. Martin seems to agree with that sentiment, feeling that Game of Thrones needed to be much longer to end the series properly....

The Good The film attempts to broach an interesting hot button issue. The Bad Robert De Niro and just about everything else. When I saw that Robert De Niro was playing a doctor in this movie I immediately became skeptical of Godsend. This story about parents (Greg Kinnear and Rebecca Romjin-Stamos) who lose their child and then have him cloned back to life, could have worked better if it had only taken itself more seriously....

With the recent announcement of the 95th Academy Award nominees, much discussion has been had about the various snubs and surprises in the major category. Yet one that is particularly interesting is The Best Original Song category, which featured some high-profile nominations but also major snubs. What determines the Best Song Oscar is always a tricky aspect to nail down, as it means different things to different people. Is the Best Song the one that is the catchiest, one that can work both within the context of the film but also stand apart as a song on its own merit, or is it one that is vital to the movie?...

Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 3 is still just under a year away, but we have already seen some sneak peeks about what to expect from the third and final movie to feature this Guardians team under the direction of James Gunn. While the Guardians of the Galaxy began their MCU journey as a largely independent movie in the Marvel Cinematic Universe, with many of its connections to the Infinity Saga coming in foreshadowing of things to come, the group led by Chris Pratt’s Peter Quill aka Star Lord have become firm fan favorites and that means their next movie is not only one of the most anticipated movies of 2023, but also a sad send off for the familiar team....

The adventure thriller Hanna, directed by BAFTA Award winner Joe Wright, begins filming in Europe next week. Focus Features holds worldwide rights to the movie. Focus CEO James Schamus made the announcement today. Academy Award nominee Saoirse Ronan (of Focus’ Atonement, also directed by Mr. Wright), Academy Award winner Cate Blanchett (soon to be seen in Robin Hood), and Eric Bana (Star Trek) star in Hanna.

That ’70s Show premiered in 1998 and became one of the most popular sitcoms and best TV shows about being a teenager in television history. The show featured a dynamic cast of characters, all representing different cliques seen in high school. The beautiful part of this show is that all of these characters were great friends. They shared the love for hanging out, getting high, and drinking beer. The show resonated with young viewers as well as older ones....

In the current age of seemingly endless gossip and scandals surrounding celebrities, the “gotcha” style of news reporting feels as if it must be a relatively recent advancement in the world of entertainment media. While the level of coverage may be vastly more prominent these days, actors from way back in the silent era of films could still fall prey to the rantings of publication outlets, and the prying eyes of the public who hope to get a front seat to a fascinating fall from grace....

TÁR may be controversial, but it’s also a brilliant triumph for unapologetically tackling topics that most Hollywood films would never dare take on. Cate Blanchett is widely regarded as one of the greatest actors in history. It’s not hard to understand why, since she boasts a colossal list of individual awards that include two Academy Awards and four Golden Globes. With too many standout performances to mention, as an artist, her hegemonic status at times is certainly merited....

HBO has released a new trailer for its upcoming true-crime documentary series I’ll Be Gone in the Dark. The series is based on the book of the same name by Michelle McNamara, who passed away in 2016. McNamara had been investigating the criminal, known as the Golden State Killer, prior to her untimely passing. This series will bring her investigation to life. The trailer opens up with several accounts from people who encountered the killer....

The term independent film, or ‘indie’ movie, tends to get thrown around a lot without any explanation. Indie movies get this label with seemingly no reason why, especially if you don’t know what the term means. It seems that any movie could be an indie film if it has a certain style or appeal, regardless of its genre or who stars in it. While some well-known actors could be in an indie movie, it’s more likely you’ll see lesser-known actors, or even actors no one has seen before....

The Good Tarantino once again shows why he is one of the best in the business. The Bad Crummy extras.Inglorious Basterds is a brilliantly conceived tale of jews fighting back against their Nazi oppressors in World War II Germany. As the war in that country went forward, the U.S. unleashed a band of merry soldiers known as The Basterds. These people scalp Nazis under the leadership of Lt. Aldo Raine (Brad Pitt)....
