Best Movies Coming to Netflix in September 2022

New DVD release
Summer is almost over. You can feel it as the days are getting longer. You can smell it as the air gets a little cooler and that first bit of foliage starts to fall. While the heat is still raging in large swaths of the U.S. (which this streaming list has been composed for), the truth is things are starting to quiet down. In that vein, it’s a perfect time to curl up with someone and “Netflix and chill” as the kids might say. It’s also just a good time to revisit some old favorites, which Netflix is bringing back…

Hulu New Releases: September 2022

New DVD release
When the leaves start to turn and the streaming calendar flips over to autumn, it’s helpful to have a guaranteed hit. And that’s exactly what Hulu has on its hands with its list of new releases for September 2022. While Prime Video unveils The Lord of the Rings: The Rings of Power and HBO Max continues on with House of the Dragon, Hulu is turning to a hit of its own with The Handmaid’s Tale. Season 5 of the dystopian epic premieres Sept. 14. That’s just the start of Hulu’s TV offerings this month though. While there are no original…

Why Winnie the Pooh Slasher Movie Legally Cannot Look Like the Pooh Bear You Know

New DVD release
Winnie the Pooh, Winnie the Pooh, willy, silly, old bear is coming for you! One imagines that the filmmakers behind Winnie-the-Pooh: Blood and Honey would absolutely love to include lyrics like those above in their new Winnie the Pooh slasher movie. It’d be as if Disneyland’s Main Street intersected with Freddy Kreuger’s Elm! However, for much of the same reason that “Winnie-the-Pooh” is nigh unrecognizable in the Blood and Honey trailer, there’s a reason you’ll never hear the above riff on the iconic Pooh Bear song in the new movie: the filmmakers behind Blood and Honey legally aren’t allowed to…

Studio Insiders Report Regrets over Zack Snyder’s Justice League

New DVD release
Almost everything at WB is up in the air these days. New CEO David Zaslav quickly went from anonymous executive to nemesis of both film and superhero fans, first by cancelling the almost completed movie Batgirl, then by holding a presentation that proposed a “male skew” to HBO Max and a “female skew” to Discovery+ (followed by a slide that included the cursed words “90-Day Fiancé Universe”). This point of turmoil means that nothing from the studio is safe, even fan-favorite superhero films. These shakeups have left questions about the status of the Snyderverse, the series of movies spanning out…

Furiosa: What’s Going On With the Mad Max Prequel?

New DVD release
This Furiosa article contains potential Mad Max spoilers. George Miller’s Mad Max: Fury Road is simply one of the best movie reboots/resurgences of all time. The film was such an instant classic, in fact, that it garnered six Academy Awards in 2016 and has placed on countless Best-of lists since its release, including our ranking of the Best Sci-Fi Movies of the Last 15 Years. Speculation of a sequel to the Tom Hardy-led revival bubbled up immediately, and while a Hardy return isn’t on the horizon just yet, what fans do have to look forward to is Furiosa, Miller’s prequel…

George Miller: The Only Director Who Could Make Mad Max and Babe

New DVD release
When people think about Academy Award-nominated directors, George Miller is probably not one of the first names that come to mind. Academy Award-nominated films have a certain connotation – typically we think of movies that are serious, but maybe a bit stodgy, ambitious, but classically-minded, crowd-pleasing, but rote. In the general public’s mind, Academy Award-nominated films are usually well-made, stuffy dramas that are more akin to eating your vegetables than pigging out on something decadent and different. But Miller makes odd, energetic genre films, something the Academy historically has ignored — unless this particular director is involved. Miller, whose new…

She-Hulk Showrunner Hints at World War Hulk MCU Story

New DVD release
This post contains spoilers for She-Hulk: Attorney at Law Episode 2 And just like that, Hulk is off-planet again. Midway through the second episode of She-Hulk: Attorney at Law, Jen phones her cousin Bruce to get his blessing on taking a new job, which would require her to defend Bruce’s old nemesis from The Incredible Hulk, Emil Blonsky aka Abomination. Bruce of course agrees but then reveals that he can’t do more because he’s on a spaceship headed for Sakaar, the same ship whose sudden appearance in episode one caused the accident that led to Jen getting Bruce’s gamma-irradiated blood…

Three Thousand Years of Longing Review: George Miller’s Latest Left Turn

New DVD release
There’s no question that Australian filmmaker and all-around eccentric genius George Miller has had one of the most eclectic directorial journeys in cinema. He’s only directed 10 ¼ features, and out of those, only three are standalone films (the quarter-feature, by the way, is the “Nightmare at 20,000 Feet” segment in 1983’s The Twilight Zone: The Movie, easily the best portion of the film). Four of his movies comprise perhaps the greatest post-apocalyptic action series of all time, while three more are…part of beloved and/or successful children’s franchises. It’s an odd resume, to say the least. Which brings us to…

Paddy Considine’s Best Roles Before House of The Dragon 

New DVD release
He’s a bit of a legend in the UK, not as well known in the US, and now he’s starring in Game of Thrones prequel House of the Dragon. But who is Paddy Considine? Well, he’s a British actor and director who grew up in Burton-on-Trent in Staffordshire (that’s in the West Midlands for our American friends – you’re welcome!). He’s won two BAFTA awards both as director for his short film Dog Altogether and for his feature debut Tyrannosaur which starred Olivia Colman and Peter Mullan and was one of the first movies to really introduce Colman as a…

Lord of the Rings: Return of the King Really Needed All Those Endings

New DVD release
The Lord of the Rings: The Return of the King was an incredibly successful movie in its time. It was the only film in the Lord of the Rings trilogy to win win eleven Oscars, including Best Director and Best Picture, and it set all sorts of box office records while out-performing the two previous entries, which is a rare feat. Grossing $1.1 billion total, it’s generally recognized as one of the most successful and popular genre movies of all time. Nevertheless, there is one thing it is absolutely notorious for among fans and casual moviegoers alike: It has too…

She-Hulk Episode 2: The Weird MCU History of Abomination and Hulk

New DVD release
This article contains spoilers for She-Hulk: Attorney at Law. In episode 2 of She-Hulk: Attorney at Law, Jennifer Walters (Tatiana Maslany), after losing her job as an assistant district attorney due to an incident of Hulking out in court, soon finds herself offered a new position with a firm that wants to defend enhanced humans and other super-powered beings. Desperate for a gig, she takes the job – and then finds out there are two caveats. First, her boss wants her to perform her duties in her She-Hulk form, thinking it will serve as both great marketing and publicity that…

Batgirl Directors Would Need “Snyder Cut” Resources Before Release

New DVD release
It’s hard to believe that lost nerd media is still a thing in 2022. Sure, in decades past, you would have to go to a comic con to buy an unreliable DVD-R with the Roger Corman-produced Fantastic Four movie or that unaired Justice League of America tv movie with Star Trek: Picard‘s Michelle Hurd as Fire and Miguel Ferrer as villain the Weather Man (no, not the Weather Wizard). But thanks to the wonders of the internet, you can find those films with just a few keystrokes. But if Batgirl directors Adil El Arbi and Bilall Fallah are to be…

Black Panther 2 Toys Reveal Final Ironheart Armor

New DVD release
This article contains potential spoilers for Black Panther: Wakanda Forever For a movie that comes out in just a few months, we still don’t know that much about Black Panther: Wakanda Forever. True, Marvel did release a trailer considered by many (including the Marvel Standom team) to be the best in the genre. But that teaser only included a few quick glimpses at returning characters such as Shuri (Letitia Wright) and Okoye (Danai Gurira), and new additions Riri Williams (Dominique Thorne) and Namor the Sub-Mariner (Tenoch Huerta). In fact, the most detailed information about the movie’s heroes has come from…

Lord of the Rings: How Faithful Are Peter Jackson’s Movies to the Tolkien Books?

New DVD release
Warning: contains spoilers for The Lord of the Rings and The Hobbit books and movies. With Amazon’s The Rings of Power series coming out very soon, there’s been a lot of talk about how faithful – or otherwise – the series is to Tolkien’s lore. But what exactly does it mean to be faithful to a book? We all know that no TV or film adaptation can simply take a book and put it on screen. For one thing, everyone imagines something slightly different, and for another, what works in a novel does not necessarily work on screen. For every…

Dragon Ball Super: Super Hero is Piccolo’s Time to Shine

New DVD release
This article contains spoilers for Dragon Ball Super: Super Hero. It’s not easy for a franchise to maintain a passionate audience for nearly four decades, and yet there’s no end in sight for Akira Toriyama’s Dragon Ball. There are hundreds of hours of entertainment between the many Dragon Ball anime, manga, video games and more, but the series’ feature film installments frequently tell stories that are too big to contain in the standard anime. Dragon Ball Super: Super Hero picks up after the events of 2018’s Dragon Ball Super: Broly, but turns to the original series’ roots when it comes…

What Dragon Ball Super: Super Hero Means for Gohan’s Future

New DVD release
This article contains spoilers for Dragon Ball Super: Super Hero. Akira Toriyama’s totemic anime series, Dragon Ball, has been delivering heightened battle spectacles for more than 35 years. The celebration that’s surrounded the series’ latest saga, Dragon Ball Super, has pushed the property’s popularity to unprecedented heights. Fans of the anime have patiently been waiting since the release of 2018’s Dragon Ball Super: Broly for the series’ next cinematic spectacle. Dragon Ball Super: Super Hero presents a revived villain from the series’ past, but the movie finds new strength by sidelining its standard Saiyan heroes and letting Gohan step into…

The Nice Guys Ending Is Darker Than You Realize

New DVD release
The world isn’t fair. That’s the message of Shane Black’s happily unkempt The Nice Guys, both onscreen and off. In a better timeline, we’d be on our third or fourth go-round with Ryan Gosling and Russell Crowe as undeservedly smug private eyes. Alas, despite some of us seeing The Nice Guys for the comedic masterpiece that it was in 2016—back when we noted that it’s “so confident it borders on arrogance”—few others did, and the movie crashed and burned at the box office. So return visits to the Nice Guys Detective Agency will never be in the cards. Nonetheless, Black’s…

Making a Lord of the Rings Gollum Movie Would Be a Bad Idea

New DVD release
Christopher Tolkien, the ever watchful son of his father’s legacy, strongly disliked Peter Jackson’s Lord of the Rings movies. Notoriously so. As late as 2013, he was still lamenting that “they eviscerated the book by making it an action movie for young people aged 15 to 25.” This is arguably too dismissive by half of a younger generation who learned to love the work of his father J.R.R. Tolkien through those movies—and movies that, for whatever concessions were made to blockbuster filmmaking, still had a slavish devotion for Tolkien’s text. As a consequence, Christopher’s disdain became a source of bemusement…

Jesse Eisenberg Reflects on His “Serious” Lex Luthor Take

New DVD release
Even those who dislike Zack Snyder’s trilogy of DC Universe films have to admit that the director brought an idiosyncratic approach to those movies’ longstanding characters. For better or worse, his version of Superman and Batman stood apart from those found in comics, movies, and television. That is perhaps most true of Lex Luthor, the primary villain of Snyder’s second DCEU movie, Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice. Played by Jesse Eisenberg, this Luthor not only sported a shaggy mane but also bounced off the walls with excitable energy. Where Gene Hackman and Kevin Spacey played Luthor as grandstanding misanthropes…

Is There a Future for Marvel’s Inhumans in the MCU?

New DVD release
This article contains spoilers for Agents of SHIELD, Ms. Marvel, and Doctor Strange in the Multiverse of Madness The Inhumans are one of the most popular and important groups within the Marvel continuity. It seemed like their presence within the Marvel Cinematic Universe was a surefire thing, considering the Mutants were unavailable to Marvel Studios in the early days. A favorite of head honcho Ike Perlmutter, an Inhumans movie was even announced; one of the few projects that the company would never make.  If you paid attention to the most recent San Diego Comic-Con, it would have been very apparent…
