The Weirdest Kisses In Sci Fi Movie History

The Weirdest Kisses In Sci-Fi Movie History Warner Bros. By Dalin Rowell/July 31, 2022 4:25 pm EST What makes a good movie kiss? Is it the chemistry of the actors mixed with the proper lighting? Is it the combination of the narrative and the right director? Maybe it is just a random bit of cinematic circumstances falling into place. There’s no easy way to explain the success of Hollywood’s most outstanding smooches, and if there were, the iconic ones wouldn’t be as special....

Timothy Dalton Has A Theory On Why His James Bond Went Underappreciated

Timothy Dalton Has A Theory On Why His James Bond Went Underappreciated MGM/UA By Jeremy Smith/Oct. 9, 2022 9:30 pm EST Roger Moore turned 58 while he was shooting his seventh James Bond feature “A View to a Kill.” He’d already huffed and puffed his way through action sequences in his previous 007 effort, “Octopussy,” but he looked downright spent in this Summer of 1985 offering. It was time for Moore to hand over his Walther pistol, but replacing him would be no small feat....

Don’t Worry Darling Ending Explained: Go Ask, Alice Warner Bros. By Bill Bria/Sept. 23, 2022 9:00 am EST Human beings have a natural resistance to change. Every time anything in someone’s life is thrown off course, from their daily routine to their preconceived notions about the world, people find themselves either adjusting or resisting.The numerous instances of anti-progressive thought that can be seen in society today (especially that coming from cisgendered white men) are proof positive of this continual phenomenon, and thus the arts — being the bastion of cultural commentary that they are — react accordingly....

This Targaryen-centric show delves into all sorts of unpleasant territory, thanks to the blonde lunatics at the center of the drama.

Every The Office Season Ranked Worst To Best

Season 1 NBC “The Office” becomes “The Office” as we know it three episodes into Season 2, when Michael Scott, regional manager, returns from an emotionally taxing condo purchase to join the closing ceremonies of an office olympics.

Oliver Stone Brought A Vietnam Mentality To Directing Michael Douglas During Wall Street

The Vietnam mentality 20th Century Studios It should be noted that Oliver Stone had, just the year prior, completed work on his Best Picture Oscar-winning film “Platoon,” a cynical tragedy about the Vietnam War. Stone established himself as a forthright, open-throated political artist, a view that was reinforced by the anti-capitalist themes of “Wall Street.” For many years, Stone was a filmmaking mercenary, using the medium to confront and provoke. Michael Douglas understood that about Stone in 1987, and felt that it was the director’s real-life war experience that colored his directing....
