The Fourth of July is celebrated in America as Independence Day, commemorating the day in 1776 when the Continental Congress voted to adopt Thomas Jefferson’s Declaration of Independence. Or, as the history teacher in the iconic Richard Linklater film Dazed and Confused (set in 1976) says, “Remember this summer, when you’re being inundated with all this American bicentennial Fourth Of July brouhaha, don’t forget what you’re celebrating, and that’s the fact that a bunch of slave-owning, aristocratic, white males didn’t want to pay their taxes....

Johnathan Daniel Hamm, gaining fame from his role as Don Draper in Mad Men, has become somewhat of a Hollywood heart throb. In 2007, he was named Salon’s Sexiest Man Living. In 2008, he was named one of People Magazine’s Sexiest Men Alive. Entertainment Weekly named him one of their “Entertainers” in both 2008 and 2010, and he also won GQ’s “International Man” award in 2010. Although much attention of the handsome actor is directed at his looks, Jon Hamm is much more than just a pretty face....

Land of the Lost wasn’t the big box office hit it was supposed to be. Despite culminating a pretty strong cult fan base since its release in the summer of 2009, this “Will Ferrell in a world of hungry dinosaurs” comedy failed to resonate with the true, hard-core fans of Sid and Marty Krofft’s original 1970s Saturday morning live action show. The legendary brothers, who became famous for bringing their unique puppets to television in the late sixties, aren’t letting the poor critical reception of Land of the Lost stand in the way of bringing their other iconic properties to the big screen, though....

British actress Keira Knightley rose to prominence in the 2000s, but hit all-new heights when she appeared in the 2005 adaptation of Jane Austen’s Pride and Prejudice. Not even two years later, she appeared in another adaptation of a book: Atonement. Knightley had made her mark appearing in the Pirates of the Caribbean franchise as Elizabeth Swann, but before then she was only decently known in the United Kingdom for some of her previous roles....

Hill was asked if The Lord of the Rings franchise should have ended after Peter Jackson’s trilogy was finished, and he replied: “Completely, yes.” However, he did make an exception for The Hobbit, although he says it was stretched out a little too much: “It’s a money-making venture and I’m not interested in watching that or being in it… Good luck to them and all that stuff but it’s not like the real thing....

When you hear the word ‘comedy,’ ‘smart’ is usually not the first thing that comes to mind. Instead, one thinks of slapstick humor, silly gags, and hilarious situations that would be deeply embarrassing in real life. So, what causes a comedy to be ‘smart?’ While regular comedies mostly prioritize the funny over other aspects, this subgenre manages to find the balance between profound issues and humor. It deals with subjects like race, class, sexuality, and mental health, to name but a few....
