Don’t bother asking Andrew Garfield about Spider-Man: No Way Home anymore, as he’s apparently finished with talking about it. It’s understandable why Garfield gets asked so many questions about the movie, given the rumors that will not go away that he is involved in the feature. Rumor is he’ll reprise his incarnation of Spidey from The Amazing Spider-Man alongside Tobey Maguire as his own version from the Spider-Man trilogy. Back in September, a certain photo made the rounds on social media which seemed to feature all three Spider-Man actors together on the set....

The movie is the first release from director Lyne since Unfaithful in 2002, and it looks like with the theatrical market both in recovery from COVID and becoming quite crowded in terms of film volumes but not so much audience numbers, that the decision makers at Disney have opted not to take the chance on Deep Water taking up valuable cinematic space. If the release had gone ahead as planned, then the relatively small budget thriller would have found itself vying for attention against the highly anticipated return of the Scream franchise, and there could only be one winner in that particular battle....

A picture where the filmmakers were in control and were given a budget to run with their vision instead of being studio-noted to death — but also, a surprising amount of existential, cynical, and nihilistic worldview permeated the films that have stood in relevance across decades. While the 1970s had great dramas, comedies, and horror films, the genre of crime churned out an unusual high in great movies....

The 1980s provided some of the very best detective movies. From hard sci fi to action comedies, the 80s had some memorable detective movies that varied in genre. It was a decade that really furthered the genre of the hard-hitting detective film.

Detective stories had already been such an iconic part of film yet the 80s really furthered the genre and took it to places it had never gone before....

Born in Kolkata, India, in 1921, Satyajit Ray would grow up to become one of South Asia’s defining filmmakers and writers. His father was Sukumar Ray, a prominent Bengali poet and writer, but Ray would not have his father in his life for long; he died when Ray was only three years old. He would always have a love for fine arts, but he studied economics in college. That did not last long, though, as he would adapt the Bengali novel Pather Panchali into his debut feature film....

Right in the middle of Fraser’s early movies, the Harold Ramis-directed comedy received mixed reviews but did reasonably well at the box office, and while it will never be remembered as a classic, the pair’s reunion 22 years on is a great little trip down memory lane for the film’s fans....

The fight to keep the network from being sold has ensued after a planned $1.2 billion sale was initially proposed under Boris Johnson’s administration 18 months ago.

The thrilling and utterly physical experience of watching a great horror movie is timeless and goes back to the earliest silent pictures. With the advent of new motion-capture techniques and more realistic props and gore in the 1980s, the horror genre was plunged into a golden age of terror-inducing films.
