Joss Whedon S Grim First Firefly Pitch Was Probably Better Left Unfilmed

‘My god, that’s dark’ 20th Television In the Science Channel ten-year reunion special “Firefly: Browncoats Unite,” Minear shared Whedon’s initial pitch to him: “[Inara] had this sort of magic syringe. She would take this drug, and if she were, for instance, raped, the rapist would die a horrible death. The story was that she gets kidnapped by Reavers, and when Mal finally got to the ship to save her from the Reavers, he gets on the Reaver ship and all the Reavers are dead....

Manifest Season 4 Trailer We Are Now Beginning Our Final Descent

Manifest Season 4 Trailer: We Are Now Beginning Our Final Descent NBC By Valerie Ettenhofer/Sept. 24, 2022 2:08 pm EST The intriguing, complicated mysteries of “Manifest” are about to be solved once and for all. The supernatural series, which was canceled last year by NBC, will officially return this fall for a final season on Netflix after the streamer decided to give it one last chance to fly. Given that the once-heroic platform rarely rescues high-profile shows these days, and more often cancels trippy ones like this (see: “The OA”), it’ll be especially interesting to see how this last season plays out....

Jones described the insidious battle they had to fight with the lawyers and contract writers at Marvel in order to be paid for the film rights to a character they had created. The character, Yelena Belova (played by Florence Pugh) first appeared in “Inhumans” #5 in March of 1999, when she had adopted the mantle of Black Widow from Natasha Romanoff (played in the movies by Scarlett Johansson)....

Star Trek: Lower Decks Season 3 Trailer: Mariner Is Taking It To The Limit Paramount By Witney Seibold/July 23, 2022 4:39 pm EST “Star Trek: Lower Decks” is proving to be — most definitely by design — the black sheep of the Trek franchise. Animated, irreverent, and endlessly self-effacing, “Lower Decks” lets its showrunners poke fun at some of the more ridiculous conceits of “Star Trek,” while still endlessly paying homage to them; not an episode will pass without a massive basket of Easter eggs for fans....

Steven Spielberg Just Directed The First Music Video Of His Career

The filmmaker directed Marcus Mumford’s ‘Cannibal’ Mumford shared the credits on social media as well, calling Capshaw the Producer, Art Director, and Dolly Grip (the dolly in question, hilariously, seems to be Spielberg’s chair) while Krieger produced and handled behind-the-scenes videography, and Mulligan did sound and costumes. The song itself is called “Cannibal,” and both it and the resulting one-shot video are quite excellent. The lyrics of the song seem to describe a person breaking the silence about a painful childhood trauma....

Sylvester Stallone Found The Key To Rocky S Character In A Film From Decades Before

Inspiration strikes United Artists Stallone has never been afraid to cite the places where his ideas originated. His initial idea for the “Rocky” series itself came after he watched Muhammad Ali fight Chuck Wepner in 1975. “Chuck Wepner was basically a guy who everybody considered a joke. He was known as the Bayonne Bleeder, and it was clear that his only notable contribution to the history of pugilism would be just how badly Ali would destroy him,” said Stallone in a GQ interview from 2018....

The Bodies Bodies Bodies Cast Bonded Over Some Mutual Pain A24 By Erin Brady/Aug. 5, 2022 2:32 pm EST It’s pretty obvious that “Bodies Bodies Bodies,” which recently began a limited release run, was a labor-intensive film. After all, our main cast of characters does find themselves fighting for their lives in pretty comical ways, not to mention the titular game they play can get pretty aggressive. This aggressiveness is something that the cast of the film seemed to relish in, at least according to stars Lee Pace and Rachel Sennott....

The Daily Stream Celebrate Skyfall S 10Th Anniversary By Watching Bond At Its Finest

Why it’s essential viewing MGM Director Sam Mendes is a man largely associated with prestigious cinema (especially up to 2012), having helmed movies such as “American Beauty” and “Road to Perdition,” the latter of which also starred Daniel Craig. He didn’t, at first glance, seem like an obvious choice to direct such a set-piece-heavy, pound-for-pound blast of a spy thriller, but he sure as f*** did. Mendes was aided in no small part by an A-list crew top to bottom, perhaps none more important than cinematographer Roger Deakins, who makes “Skyfall” quite possibly the best-looking “Bond” film ever....

The Guardians Of The Galaxy Holiday Special Features A Blink And You Ll Miss It Eternals Easter Egg

Martin has always been riddled with violence, with some of the most memorable episodes of “Game of Thrones” centering around legendary battles and wedding night massacres. Thus far, the spin-off series “House of the Dragon” has been a masterclass in emotional manipulation and the devastating understanding that the birthing bed is as much of a battlefield as the fields of war....
