The D Train Trailer: Jack Black Needs You To Come To The High School Reunion By Peter Sciretta/March 31, 2015 10:45 am EST One of the films I enjoyed at the 2015 Sundance Film Festival but didn’t get around to reviewing is The D Train.

‘It’ First Look Teases Bill Skarsgård’s Pennywise The Dancing Clown With New Image By Jacob Hall/July 13, 2016 10:00 am EST Stephen King has written many great books (and his fair share of stinkers), but few linger in the public consciousness quite like 1986’s It, which remains one of the most ambitious, unsettling, and profoundly frightening horror novels of all time. Over 1,138 pages, King told the epic story of an unnamed supernatural force that terrorized the town of Derry, Maine over decades and the small group of friends that stood against it....

‘Spectre’ Heineken Ad Is Like Seeing Daniel Craig In A Roger Moore Bond Movie By Russ Fischer/Sept. 21, 2015 11:30 am EST There is a marked difference between the tough, squinting James Bond played by Daniel Craig and the urbane, quippy Bond incarnated by Roger Moore in seven films released between 1973 and 1985. The two get a little closer, however, in this long James Bond Heineken spot, which vaguely promotes the new film Spectre and definitely promotes the beer....

Nickelodeon Making ‘Legends Of The Hidden Temple’ Movie By Ethan Anderton/March 1, 2016 11:00 am EST Even though Nickelodeon is still a destination channel for kids these days, they just don’t have as many cool game shows as they used to back in the ’90s.

Read The Fan Letter Steven Spielberg Sent Dwayne Johnson By Angie Han/June 30, 2015 8:30 am EST Is there a movie star more universally beloved right now than Dwayne Johnson? The guy is so powerfully charismatic, he’s been dubbed “franchise Viagra.” He can rock the hell out of a Taylor Swift anthem and make a gritty Bambi reboot seem like a good idea.
