Every Game Release Is Avoiding GTA 6 Except Two Pop Culture Giants

Grand Theft Auto VI has the presence of one of those cliché high school bullies that, when they walk down the hall, you quickly get out of their way in fear of being shoved into a locker.  As hyperbolic as that may seem, it’s clear game studios have felt the looming presence of Rockstar Games’ GTA 6. Resonance: A Plague Tale Legacy producer, Eric Chort, even went as far to say “GTA is like the ogre, it’s the biggest one” in an interview with Eurogamer. According to Chort, that presence has led “all the studios in the world” to adjust…

Jason Momoa Has One Non-Negotiable Demand for a Lobo Movie

The big-screen debut of Lobo in DC Studios’ upcoming Supergirl is one that has been long-awaited (seriously it’s about fragging time). But this version sees the cigar-smoking alien space-biker in a more tempered state than usual. Fortunately for fans, Jason Momoa has promised that any solo movie for The Main Man himself will be strictly rated R.  In a Collider interview, Momoa confirmed he had discussed a possible spinoff with DC Studios heads James Gunn and Peter Safran saying, “It’s all I want, and I promise—I’m just going to put this out there right now—I do not have any interest…

Doctor Who Will Survive its Return to the Wilderness (And Be Better For It)

The death of Doctor Who has been greatly exaggerated. Yes, the show’s been put on a hiatus of indeterminate length, showrunner Russell T. Davies and his production company Bad Wolf have been removed (or stepped down, depending on how descriptively kind you’re feeling), and we have no idea when it will return. The previously promised Christmas special has been canceled — and may have never existed in the first place? — and it feels increasingly unlikely we’ll ever find out the answer to that Billie Piper cliffhanger that closed season 15. Things definitely aren’t great right now, and it’s fair…

Spielberg and Ford Fought George Lucas on the Worst Indiana Jones Sequel (and Lost)

It’s no secret that Indiana Jones and the Kingdom of the Crystal Skull faced resistance from star Harrison Ford and director Steven Spielberg on the long road to its 2008 release, and that George Lucas’ insistence that aliens could be a viable plot device in the movie was a big part of that resistance. Lucas had been pitching Indy vs aliens since the 1990s, and after various writers had worked on scripts for the belated fourquel, David Koepp’s screenplay about Indy reuniting with Marion Ravenwood from Raiders of the Lost Ark and discovering he has a son while searching for…

Gladiator Is a Movie for Women, Argues Russell Crowe

If you’ve ever watched Letterboxd’s Four Favorites video series on social media, you’ll be more than aware that a lot of men really love Ridley Scott’s Gladiator, which remains understandable in a decade where “my Roman Empire” has been trending. Scott’s crowd-pleasing, awards-hogging, fist-pumping action-adventure flick explores themes of honor, courage, loyalty, and brotherhood, and its central character, Maximus Decimus Meridius (portrayed by Russell Crowe), remains true to his principles and fights for something greater than himself until he becomes a true “soldier of Rome” in death. The 2000 epic also has a really strong fan base among women, and…

My Adventures With Superman and the Anti-Cannonical Fun of Supergirl

This article contains light spoilers for My Adventures With Superman season three, episode one. As its name suggests, My Adventures With Superman isn’t just about the titular hero. Each episode gives just as much time to his pal Jimmy Olsen and to his girlfriend Lois Lane, a place of honor illustrated by the end of the opening credits. Right before the episode proper begins, we see Jimmy and Lois steel themselves against some upcoming threat, standing on either side of Clark as he removes his glasses to become Superman. Season three adds a fourth person to the circle of friends,…

Krypto and the Superpets We Want to See in the DCU

In the latest issue of Empire Magazine, Supergirl writer Ana Nogueira identified Krypto as the key to unlocking the movie. Not only does the Krypto’s connection to her own dog help Nogueira find the emotional center for her superhero movie, but an injury dealt in the movie’s first act gives Supergirl a reason to go on her adventure. In this way, Supergirl follows the lead set by Superman, which also turned Krypto into a household sensation. But really, both movies are just applying the lessons learned by DC Comics, when the company started giving all of its major heroes animal…

Let George Miller Finish His Mad Max Saga

For lovers of cinema, few things are as depressing as a franchise that extends itself into too many sequels or, worse, into a television series. One need not look far into the history of genre cinema to see later entries that devolve into self-parody, and the MCU Disney+ shows have shown that too much of a good thing can dilute the power of the original property. But such mundane rules don’t apply to George Miller. So if he wants to make one more Mad Max movie and a Mad Max TV show, as Matthew Belloni suggests in his latest rumor…

The 15 Most Boring Movie Titles Ever, if Taken Literally

Movie titles don’t often describe what the movie is about, but transmit a feeling or vibe. In Fast and Furious, the title doesn’t immediately translate to illegal racing, but it does transmit the sense of velocity and wild natured rebels that the movie intends. At least if you take that name literally, it can be about wild cats hunting. Other movie titles, taken literally, are about things that we wouldn’t really want to watch. This is not just an exercise in silly thinking, but it’s also for us to not judge a movie by its title alone; the rest of…

15 Celebrity Deaths That Could Bring Michael Jackson Level Devastation

It’s likely that nothing will compare to the cultural impact Michael Jackson had on the world, both because of how much of an icon he was, and how the world was back then. But there are still people that are known in enough parts of the world that, should they perish, it would certainly be felt. These are the cultural icons that we know and love today, and it would be devastating to see them go. All that remains is, in each of their cases, if their legacy will remain spotless as they show it, or if we will find…

Disclosure Day Ending Explained with Screenwriter

This article contains massive Disclosure Day spoilers. It’s a single word with profound implications. On a night where the world feels like it is on the eve of WWIII, and the media breathlessly follows reports of geopolitical turmoil coming out of the Korean peninsula, all of the petty problems of humanity seem suddenly mooted by a sequence that is pure Spielbergian magic. Driven by—or possessed—by her connection to extraterrestrials that dates back to a childhood abduction, Emily Blunt’s Margaret Fairchild is able to commandeer her local new station in Kansas City, and soon enough the entire planet, and reveal we…

The Death of Robin Hood Review: Hugh Jackman Leads a Beautifully Brutal Elegy

The earliest surviving narrative text featuring that rogue we now know as the Prince of Thieves, the Fox of Sherwood, the guy with the bow, is the ballad of “Robin Hood and the Monk.” Our copy is believed to date back to around 1450, although the tale is likely older. But even that long ago, many of the elements we associate with Robin Hood are already in place: the Merry Men, Little John, and an antipathy toward the Sheriff of Nottingham. Yet if you actually go back to dust off the stanzas and verse of that tale, the details can…

How Eraser Director Chuck Russell Challenged Arnold Schwarzenegger

By the time Eraser released on June 21, 1996, Arnold Schwarzenegger ruled Hollywood. It’s not just that he was a giant man, the former Mister Universe. Arnold had already done all-time classics like Predator and Terminator 2. He knew what he was and he got his way. So when he wanted to make a movie about a U.S. Marshal who defends a whistleblower in witness protection from a government conspiracy, most would just follow orders. Not Chuck Russell. When the script for Eraser hit his desk, Russell—fresh off horror classics A Nightmare on Elm Street 3: Dream Warriors and The…
