James Cameron is the kind of director who doesn’t put out a movie until he knows it’s ready. He’ll often wait years before starting on a project just to give technology time to catch up to his vision. He did so with The Abyss, which served as a microcosm for visual effects when it was released in 1989, and Avatar 2: The Way of Water. For the latter, his patience is paying off tenfold after a long decade of production as the film reached the billion-dollar mark in just ten days....

In 2021, a year after the COVID-19 pandemic started, everyone was looking for a reason to continue to have hope and laugh.

Movies that were supposed to be released years ago saw the light of day, while new ones unexpectedly stole the hearts of moviegoers. The range of films that came out in 2021 was wide, ranging from stale dad jokes to the romantic comedy beefed up into something new for the 2020s....

Breakups can be one of the toughest experiences to go through in life. On the one hand, it can be a relief to finally put an end to an unhealthy or unhappy relationship, but on the other, it can leave us feeling incredibly vulnerable. It’s only natural to want to fill that void with something that will make us feel better, and for many of us, that something is a movie....

Marvel Studios entered the world of television in 2021 with WandaVision and The Falcon and the Winter Soldier. Before the Disney+ Marvel series, however, a separate division known as Marvel Television had already produced a multitude of Marvel shows. Most of these shows, including Marvel’s Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D. and Daredevil, had taken place within the MCU, but due to studio politics at the time, the shows did not cross over with the films and were relegated to their own self-contained space....

Of all film genres, science fiction has perhaps seen the most growth over the history of the medium. Often heavy in visual effects, the progression of computer generated animation has done wonders for elevating the magnitude and spectacular nature of these fantastical works of fiction. Though the modern age of sci-fi can be home to some of the most inventive imagery and stories, the bygone-yet-beloved era of the genre still has its deep roots of influence, albeit from a simpler time....

Warner Bros. Discovery’s DC plans are very much up in the air at the moment, and that could mean that we see some unexpected movies and shows coming to the big screen. Barbarian director Zach Cregger would really love one of those to be his own Batman spin-off movie, which he says he has already written the script for. Cregger is currently celebrating a wave of praise for Barbarian, a new horror movie starring Bill Skarsgard, Justin Long, Georgina Campbell and Cregger himself that topped the box office and made back its minuscule $10 million budget on its opening weekend....

Cinema is Léa Seydoux’s blood, one could argue. Her grandfather is the Chairman of Pathé, after all. It’s no surprise, then, that she began acting at a relatively early age, appearing in films such as The Last Mistress (2007) and On War (2008). Seydoux first came to attention after she received her first César Award nomination for The Beautiful Person (2008) and won the Trophée Chopard, an award given to promising actors at Cannes....

Food and cooking is an art that has gained recognition in the last few years. Maybe it’s because there are more delicious cooking (and chef adjacent) shows; maybe it’s because food is part of every culture and way of living; the kitchen world has gained interest enough to appear more and more in movies and TV shows. We love and respect real chefs (and hope to one day eat in their restaurants), from movies and shows like Jiro Dreams of Sushi, Ugly Delicious, Chef’s Table, Salt Acid Fat Heat, or any of the Anthony Bourdain shows, but this list is about fictional chefs....

When modern audiences hear of silent films, they often think of the screwball comedies from the likes of Charlie Chaplin and Buster Keaton. For horror fans, they think of some of the most groundbreaking and innovative films in all of cinema. The horror films of the silent era pushed the boundaries of what could be shown on film at the time. They were also where many of the innovations of early special effects were found....

South Korean cinema is the best place to start at when looking for some of the best action movies with intricate story lines. These action movies many times leave Hollywood action movies behind, and set the bar exceedingly high. The recent Oscar-winning movie Parasite is an example of South Korean cinematic greatness with thrilling action. There are numerous action thrillers produced in South Korea, which have achieved recognition on par with Parasite....

Steve Martin is one of the most accomplished performers in film history. The actor, comedian, musician, writer, and producer became involved in the entertainment industry at a very young age. As a teenager, in fact, he began working at a community theater, and then landed a job at Disneyland. Quickly, however, he discovered his gift for comedy and started writing his own stand-up routines, as well as plays and even music....
