Time to travel Netflix Aside from his similarities with the character, one of Rowan’s favorite parts of working on “Peaky Blinders"a was how instantly they were transported back in time, giving him a new appreciation for the time period. That said, all roads do lead back to fighting for the young man, as he freely admitted that he would love to have seen how the fights played out back in the day....
Ralph Macchio Reveals The Movie Magic Behind Catching A Fly With Chopsticks In The Karate Kid Columbia Pictures By Miyako Pleines/Oct. 27, 2022 8:30 am EST There are two things everyone who has seen “The Karate Kid” has tried to attempt. The first is the famous Crane Kick that Daniel LaRusso (Ralph Macchio) employs at the end of the film to knock out Johnny Lawrence (William Zabka) for the All Valley Championship, and the second is catching a fly with chopsticks....

Creating an egoless environment Netflix Featured as a guest on Jimmy Kimmel Live, Kathryn Hahn talked about being a part of “Glass Onion.” Hahn called it a positive experience, which, according to the actor, is “not always the case, where you have such a fun time working on something, sometimes it doesn’t translate to the screen.” However, for Rian Johnson, it was all about bringing familiarity and comfortableness to the production, as Hahn would elaborate:...
‘Practically finished and turned out beautifully’ Warner Bros. Following the announcement, several key people that worked on the film took to social media to share their disappointment with Warner Bros. Discovery’s decision to cancel the film. Co-writer Paul Dini (yes, that Paul Dini, creator of “Batman: The Animated Series”) tweeted in frustration over the decision. “Why cancel a 95% finished holiday movie this close to Fall, when you’re guaranteed kids watching it from right after Halloween until at least New Years?...
’ … So much gold that’s on the cutting room floor' Marvel Studios Christian Bale was asked about what he was looking forward to audiences seeing in “Thor: Love and Thunder,” or something he couldn’t believe was in it. It’s a good question, as he’d mentioned in an earlier interview with Total Film that there had been a planned Gorr the God Butcher dance to a Kate Bush song that was rehearsed but didn’t get shot....

The 16 Most Disturbing Movie Moments Of 2017 By Matt Donato/Jan. 3, 2018 11:00 am EST Those following my work here on /Film know that I watch a lot of horror movies, from psychological puzzlers to bone-snapping slashers. It’s not all gore, guts and viscera, but one can guesstimate the ceaseless quantity of “disturbing” moments these eyes witness year after year. It could be a scene that triggers an immediate gag reflex, or recharges my nightmare fuel, or hits upon existential devastation with unearthly intent....
The Brutally Funny Only Murders In The Building Scene Steve Martin Personally Pitched Hulu By Sandy Schaefer/Aug. 10, 2022 1:02 pm EST If “Only Murders in the Building” really is the end of the line for Steve Martin (so far as his acting career goes, mind you), then he’ll certainly bow out strong. The thoroughly delightful mystery-comedy series had doubled as a showcase for the multi-hyphenate’s many talents as an artist, from his musical skills to his knack for slapstick....
Paul’s dream about the emperor — Dune (1984) Universal Pictures Even the biggest David Lynch fan may struggle to defend 1984’s “Dune.” Lynch himself disowned the film, as he felt that he had very little control over the final version that audiences saw in theaters. “Dune” is weird — even by Lynchian standards. Frank Herbert’s original novel is a complex work of literature and trying to cram the entire story into one film makes it more confusing....
Warner Bros. Playing Financial Games With Films Goes Back To The Days Of John Wayne Warner Bros By Jeremy Smith/Nov. 4, 2022 2:45 pm EST Angie Dickinson once said of Jack L. Warner, “Jack was funny. He was funny because he wasn’t funny, but he was always trying to be funny, and that struck me as funny.” Dickinson’s “Rio Bravo” co-star, John Wayne, was far from enamored of Warner’s funniness, particularly as it pertained to business....
Will We See The Man Who Fell To Earth Season 2? Showtime By Ryan Scott/Oct. 11, 2022 12:40 pm EST Showtime has been home to some flashy scripted programming over the last handful of years, with the breakout hit “Yellowjackets” right at the top of the list, not to mention the upcoming series adaptation of “Let the Right One In.” This year saw the release of the ambitious “The Man Who Fell to Earth” on the premium cable channel/streaming service, serving as a sequel to the original 1976 movie that starred the late David Bowie....
The Twisted Mind of Love Quinn Netflix Sure, Joe can be a bit of a wildcard for strangers: no one who first meets the bookish “nice guy” immediately realizes that he’s a deranged killer. But fans of “You” have put in the work, endured his many bloodstained rants, watched his love affairs end in burials and seen him hide under the beds of his many beloveds. While it started off shocking, he’s becoming predictable....
Scream Dimension Films Since the release of “Scream” in 1996, the ongoing franchise has become one of the most popular examples of meta horror films. Self-aware teenagers with an SAT-level vocabulary openly discussing horror movie tropes, while actively experiencing them, made the first film a hit that has spawned four sequels. Onscreen, “Scream” characters are clever, precocious, and self-referential, but behind the scenes, the actors are just as clumsy as the rest of us....
A blast from the past Columbia Pictures It’s entirely possible that you either missed seeing “The Karate Kid Part III,” or you’ve blocked it from your memory, so here’s the deal. After returning from Okinawa with Mr. Miyagi (Noriyuki “Pat” Morita), he and Daniel find themselves without a place to live while their building is renovated. Daniel uses his entire college fund to buy Mr. Miyagi a bonsai store (just stay with me, because logic is not a part of this film) across the street from a pottery store....
American Horror Stories Season 2: Everything We Know So Far FX on Hulu By BJ Colangelo/July 14, 2022 2:49 pm EST The spooky season is starting early this year, with the second season of “American Horror Stories” arriving faster than you can say, “BALENCIAGAAAAAAA!” The anthology spin-off of “American Horror Story” from Ryan Murphy and Brad Falchuk is back with a new assortment of scary stories to tell …err, watch on TV....

Protostar encountering a distant planet occupied by a species called Enda-Prizians who speak in a formal Starfleet-like language and wear Starfleet-adjacent clothing. The Protostar crew soon come to the conclusion that this planet had been visited by Starfleet over a century ago, and the society adopted the organization’s trappings as the basis of their society....
Douglas Sirk melodramas Universal Pictures The glossy, well-manicured world of Victory with its palm trees and wide desert skies is not the same as the New England suburbs in a Douglas Sirk melodrama, but there is an uncanniness to the uniformity of these immaculate exteriors shot in bright colors. Both films portray environments that trap the female protagonist with its expectations of perfection. In Sirk films, “Homes that are supposed to be havens start to look like prisons as the decor comes to dominate the compositions....
