The Mandalorian and Grogu Brings ‘90s Movie Style to Star Wars at Extended Footage Preview

Max SchindlerNew DVD release
There have been Star Wars movies made since the 1990s. There was even a Star Wars movie released (barely) in the ’90s, the decade of Clinton and dot.com, beanie babies and Swingers. However, 1999’s The Phantom Menace, like every Star Wars movie produced by George Lucas (or those who would seek to imitate his aesthetic) tended to reach toward a more classical cinematic style and vocabulary. The original Star Wars evoked the vistas of John Ford and the compositions of Akira Kurosawa, while the Prequel Trilogy maintained that mid-20th century influence, even while going all-in on CGI and digital photography…

Evil Dead Burn Trailer Features a Major Twist on the Usual Formula

Max SchindlerNew DVD release
Evil Dead Burn is going to swallow Sam Raimi‘s soul. Okay, okay, that’s going too far. But the latest trailer for the next entry in the horror franchise features both the audacious camera movements that have been the director’s calling card since he made The Evil Dead in 1981, but it also inserts something new for the series: a plot. The trailer has lots of nastiness, as someone with a car seat headrest in their face chases a couple into a family home. But it also sets up some character stakes, with the loss of a family member driving a…

Mortal Kombat: Annihilation’s Goofiness Has Aged Perfectly

Max SchindlerNew DVD release
If you’ve spent any time at all on the internet, you’ve probably seen the most infamous moment from the 1997 bomb, Mortal Kombat: Annihilation. A woman in purple strides onto the screen to take her place between two ninjas standing in fight positions. When a young lady below says, “Mother… you’re alive,” the camera cuts to a close up on the purple person. “Too bad YOU… will DIE!” she declares with an ostentatious point. That bit of dialogue occurs just four minutes into the film, and for nearly 30 years, it solidified fans’s opinion that Annihilation represented a serious step-down…

New Star Wars Viewing Data Shows a Deep Generational Divide

Max SchindlerNew DVD release
Nielsen has released new viewership data to mark Star Wars Day, aka May 4th, and the numbers are pretty fascinating for anyone curious about how well the franchise is doing in the streaming landscape. Largely based on 2025 data, it reveals that in the U.S. alone, viewers watched a staggering 33 billion minutes of Star Wars content last year. A New Hope, The Phantom Menace and Rogue One were the most popular movies, while Andor, Skeleton Crew and The Mandalorian filled out the top three spots on the TV side. Yet, it’s the data from the first quarter of 2026…

Shattered Might Have the Most Underrated Ending Twist of the ’90s

Max SchindlerNew DVD release
The late Wolfgang Petersen made some memorable films in his career. The German director, who first gained international acclaim with the war film Das Boot, went on to traumatize children everywhere with The Never Ending Story and then captivate audiences with movies like In the Line of Fire, Outbreak, Air Force One, and Troy. You’ll also occasionally hear people discuss his box-office flop, Enemy Mine, which later became a cult sci-fi movie. But a Petersen movie that no one talks about has one of the most underrated ending twists of the 1990s, and it’s time to give Shattered its due.…

Marvel’s Oddest Show Is Staying That Way in Season 2

Max SchindlerNew DVD release
After garnering positive reviews and having cracked the Nielsen Streaming Originals chart using a binge release model, something that Daredevil: Born Again hasn’t managed in either of its much-hyped weekly rollout seasons, Wonder Man will be coming back to Disney+ for a second batch of episodes in the future. Marvel doesn’t renew its live-action Disney+ shows very often. Only Loki and Born Again managed to secure renewals before Wonder Man’s debut. Yet unexpectedly, audiences warmed to the unusual series, which introduces a complex superpowered human and struggling actor named Simon Williams, who keeps his powers hidden so he can audition…

Euphoria Season 3 Is Full-On Body Horror – We Should Have Seen It Coming 

Max SchindlerNew DVD release
This article contains spoilers for Euphoria through season 3 episode 3. Euphoria has always enjoyed mistreating young bodies. From the physical toll Rue (Zendaya) faces during her numerous drug relapses and withdrawals, to the way characters like Jules (Hunter Schafer) and Kat (Barbie Ferreira) utilize their sexuality in dangerous situations, the story of this teenage drama is told through the exploitation – self-inflicted or otherwise – of the human body  Euphoria has also never been short on raw violence. In its first two seasons, Nate (Jacob Elordi) chokes and bruises his ex-girlfriend, puts another high schooler in a neck brace…

The Devil Wears Prada 2 Eulogizes Journalism, Movie Stardom and Last Gasps of Creativity

Max SchindlerNew DVD release
It was a different world The Devil Wears Prada opened in 20 years ago, as indicated by the fact that you could open a summer hit like The Devil Wears Prada without it being a sequel, remake, or reimagining. To be sure, the 2006 original—which also netted Meryl Streep an Oscar nod—was still based on a hit bestselling book. But even that trend of adapting popular, gossipy novels aimed at a slightly more sophisticated audience was the rule in Tinseltown, not the exception. It was a time when comedies were blockbusters, summer crowd-pleasers didn’t regularly cost a cool quarter-billion dollars…

Hokum Cements Adam Scott as One of Our Great Everyman Actors

Max SchindlerNew DVD release
This article contains light spoilers for Hokum. Early in the Irish horror movie Hokum, American author Ohm Bauman loses what little patience he had with the staff of the rustic hotel he’s visiting. When bellboy Alby (Will O’Connell) fails to comprehend his blunt and rude rejection, Ohm places a spoon over a candle, lets it heat up, and then presses it into the interlocutor’s hand. Alby recoils with shock and waits for an explanation, but Ohm only says, “You’re gonna need thicker skin than that if you’re gonna make it as a writer.” For all that writer/director Damian McCarthy does…

Monarch: Legacy of Monsters Star Reveals the Season 2 Ending That Almost Was

Max SchindlerNew DVD release
The following contains spoilers for the Monarch: Legacy of Monsters season 2 finale. Monarch: Legacy of Monsters’ second season may feature some of the series’ biggest Titan battles to date, but its primary story is a deeply human one. From Cate’s refusal to leave Lee Shaw in Axis Mundi to Kentaro’s wild plan to try to save the dead father he can’t bring himself to admit he lost, it’s been a season of big emotions, hard choices, and far-reaching consequences. And perhaps no character has been asked to endure quite as much as Keiko Randa, the brilliant, time-displaced scientist who is forced to…

Monarch: Legacy of Monsters’ VFX Supervisor on the Debut of Another Familiar Kaiju and Humanizing Titan X

Max SchindlerNew DVD release
The following contains spoilers for the Monarch: Legacy of Monsters season 2 finale. Monarch: Legacy of Monsters’ second season wraps up with a monster-sized face-off between Kong and Titan X on Skull Island, another appearance from Lee’s past self, an emotional split between Cate and Kentaro, and the dramatic rescue of a stolen Titan egg. The finale wraps up most of the season’s outstanding plot threads, but it also sets plenty of new stories in motion, including the establishment of a secret Monarch division (in a literal basement) that’s charged with the top secret task of locating Kentaro and Apex’s…

The 15 Oldest Movie Stars to Ever Grace Our Screens

Max SchindlerNew DVD release
Age has never fully limited a screen career, and some performers remained active far longer than anyone expected. Across film history, several actors continued appearing in movies well into their nineties and even past one hundred, bringing decades of experience to the screen. These appearances were not always leading roles, but they carried a unique presence shaped by extraordinary longevity. In many cases, simply seeing them perform at that age became memorable in itself. Here are fifteen of the oldest movie stars ever to grace our screens, based on the age they reached while still appearing in films. Mel Brooks…

BREAKING: New Lanterns Promo Image Has Actual Green In It

Max SchindlerNew DVD release
In a bold creative decision that’s certain to shake the world of pop culture, HBO Max has released to Instagram a new still from its upcoming series Lanterns. To the shock and delight of at least 12 people (yours truly included), the picture prominently features the color green. The image depicts a human fist butting against a strange, alien-looking object. While the dark shading and overall drabness of the fist and its surroundings match the tone of the images and teasers already released for the series, the object itself has a hue that can only be described as “green.” The…

My Adventures with Superman Reveals Season 3’s Big Bad

Max SchindlerNew DVD release
The Reign of the Supermen is upon us! Or, rather, it will be this summer, because that’s when My Adventures with Superman returns for its third season. As excited as we are to rejoin the show’s anime-inflected take on Clark Kent, Lois Lane, and Jimmy Olsen, it’s not all fun and sunshine for the Man of Tomorrow and his pals. Because along with the announcement comes the reveal of the season’s primary antagonist, the Cyborg Superman. “We’re Cyborg Superman right out the gate,” showrunner Jake Wyatt told Entertainment Weekly, while also promising a very different approach to the villain. “It’s not…

Zach Cregger’s Resident Evil Trailer Is All Survival Horror Tension

Max SchindlerNew DVD release
Even though he has only two solo movies under his belt, filmmaker Zach Cregger has established a few key interests. He’s afraid of what goes on in quiet houses. And he likes running. Both of those qualities are on full display in the first trailer for Resident Evil, Cregger’s follow-up to Weapons. Both of those qualities also fit well within the survival horror genre, which the Resident Evil video games helped define. Throughout the trailer, we see Austin Abrams cross a snowy yard to an isolated house. Upon finding it abandoned, he enters, makes a call to a loved one,…

Devil Wears Prada 2 Represents the End of Marvel Summers

Max SchindlerNew DVD release
This year, Disney will kick off the summer movie season with a titanic clash of good and evil. On one side stands a maiden, oft-dismissed and misunderstood, who overcame her humble origins to become a formidable new force. On the other, stands the devil. Such a description could apply to any of the Marvel movies that have signaled the start of the summer blockbuster season for nearly two decades: Iron Man (May 8, 2008), The Avengers (May 4, 2012), Avengers: Infinity War (May 24, 2018), Avengers: Endgame (April 26, 2019). Even recently, Marvel has staked its claim at the end…

American Dollhouse Cast and Director on Making Meat and Potatoes Horror

Max SchindlerNew DVD release
Love it or hate it, “elevated horror” has come to dominate the genre. Everywhere you look, there’s another movie that wrestles with a social ill by making its central monster an extension of that wrong or a manifestation of the trauma it causes. So it’s refreshing to hear that writer/director John Valley has modest aims for American Dollhouse, the slasher he premiered at SXSW. “I’m drawing from a lineage of slasher films, starting with Psycho, Peeping Tom, Black Christmas,” Valley tells Den of Geek. “I’m obsessed with how minimalist a slasher can be, while still being a container for modern…

Widow’s Bay: Matthew Rhys, Stephen Root, Hiro Murai On Apple TV’s Offbeat Horror Comedy

Max SchindlerNew DVD release
Apple TV’s Widow’s Bay is genuinely unlike anything else on television at the moment. The series deftly mixes elements from multiple genres, refusing to be confined to any particular box in terms of its tone or storytelling choices. From jumpscares and complicated historical lore to mysterious creatures and office politics, it’s all over the map, narratively speaking, and all the more interesting for it.  The story of a picture-perfect New England town that may or may not be cursed by some sort of dark entity, the series is frightening and absurd by turns, with plenty of spooky coastal vibes and a…

The Devil Wears Prada Is a Stanley Tucci Masterclass

Max SchindlerNew DVD release
Ask most people about the greatest monologue in The Devil Wears Prada, and one word will come to mind: “Cerulean.” The speech that Miranda Priestly delivers to her awkward new assistant, Andy, seems to encapsulate the film’s worldview, the faith that the fashion industry matters because regular people are beholden to decisions made by those at the top of field. It’s a tough, cynical moment, one that underscores the movie’s plucky tone. The better speech occurs just minutes later, when a frustrated Andy complains to fashion director Nigel about the recognition Miranda refuses to give her. What follows is a…

Spider-Man: Brand New Day Script Notes Reveal a Half-Step Fix to the MCU’s Peter Parker

Max SchindlerNew DVD release
When he entered the MCU, Peter Parker was the Queens kid we knew from the comics and movies… for about 30 seconds. He strides through his crowded apartment building, proudly holding a DVD player he found on the street, just like standard-issue Peter Parker would do. But then, he finds Tony Stark sitting on his couch, and from Captain America: Civil War onward, the MCU Spider-Man diverted from the standard depiction. The MCU Spider-Man is a scion of Tony Stark, a kid who has access to incredible tech and nano-suits, who never once needs to take a crappy freelance gig…
