Apparently The Call Of The Wild has trouble drawing the line between being realistic and being just the fun family movie that it wants to be. Yolanda Machado called out the film’s villain, played by Dan Stevens of FX’s Legion, Beauty and the Beast and Downton Abbey. Here’s what she said in her review on

Disney/20th Century Studios feature adaptation of Jack London’s Call of the Wild drew $1M last night from 6PM previews while STX’s horror sequel Brahms: The Boy II saw $375K at roughly 1,800 theaters last night.

But in recent years, that concept has thankfully fallen away, especially in the Craig era of films, in favor of more three dimensional characters. While romance is definitely still part of the game, as Eva Green’s Vesper Lynd and Lea Seydoux’s Dr. Madeleine Swann have both provided James with the loves of his life, those

It’s kind of funny to hear Jason Blum take aim at The Two Towers, considering just how massively successful the Lord of the Rings trilogy was in theaters. Although while it introduced, revived Gandalf, and included some epic battle sequences, the second movie didn’t actually drastically change the circumstances of the story. The Fellowship was

In modern Disney films especially, there are almost always easter eggs to be found in the latest animated Disney adventure. Of course, frequently, these easter eggs are tucked away in the background, so it’s unlikely one will notice them the first time around, even on a big theater screen. However, now that Frozen II is
This certainly would have been very early in the process, conversations with potential actors almost certainly had not begun, but films always have their short lost of actors they are interested in getting, and it’s certainly possible, even likely, that Chris Evans was on that list. So perhaps this image was sort of the “dream
Gisele Yashar (Gal Gadot) This next one is a stretch, I know, but hear me out. So, we saw Han die in Tokyo Drift and then archival and alternate footage of him dying in Furious 7, only for him to return in F9. With all of that being said, couldn’t the same happen with Gisele
The question is will it happen. On that front, John Krasinski doesn’t seem to have any more idea than you or I, or at least, not one that he’s willing to share. The actor says he doesn’t know what Marvel is thinking for the Fantastic Four in the MCU or whether his name is in
Avengers: Endgame is currently on home video, but if you’re looking for an excuse to try out Disney +, you’re in luck! Check out the 7 day free trial that’ll allow you to see all three Iron Man movies, as well as Avengers: Endgame, and many of the other heroes and stories in the Marvel

The indie distributor Neon is becoming the cool, popular kid in Hollywood and on the box office playground since they dominated the Oscars with the multiple Parasite wins. This weekend, the distributor, founded by Tim League and Tom Quinn, saw the return of Portrait of a Lady on Fire in theaters, while Parasite took a victory lap after winning
If we’re sticking to the All The Boys books, this is about as far as it goes with John Ambrose. Once Lara Jean makes her decision to go back to Peter, she never thinks back to John Ambrose again. So don’t expect this love triangle to play a massive part in the franchise after P.S.
Refresh for latest…: Paramount’s Sonic The Hedgehog raced to a $100M worldwide opening this weekend, including $43M from the international box office, and a domestic record for a videogame pic.

Wait, Wasn’t Han Dead? It’s safe to say that everyone who sought out the Fast And Furious 9 trailer was more than a little keyed up once they saw what was revealed. There was action, evil John Cena, Helen Mirren, and that whole scene where Dom drives his car off a cliff, latches onto a
THR reports that, according to Disney reps, yes, it should be expected that Mena Massoud, Naomi Scott, and even Will Smith will return, but, with the script still in its early stages, no offers have been made to the actors at this time. One actor from the cast of the 2019 Aladdin remake whom I

On that adjusted gross list, the first Star Wars movie is actually still above Avengers: Endgame. The “adjusted” list of highest-grossing movies is currently Gone with the Wind, Avatar, Titanic, Star Wars, Avengers: Endgame, The Sound of Music, E.T., The Ten Commandments, Doctor Zhivago, and Star Wars: The Force Awakens.
With the 2020 summer Olympics around the corner, the timing of the release of the IFC Films romantic comedy Olympic Dreams couldn’t be any more perfect — but this isn’t an ordinary rom-com or a film about the Olympics.
