‘Deepwater Horizon’ Photos: Mark Wahlberg And Peter Berg Reunite By Jack Giroux/March 22, 2016 5:00 pm EST Less than a year after the disastrous BP Oil spill, a film based on the tragic event was already in the works. Back in 2014, director J.C. Chandor was attached to helm Deepwater Horizon. Unfortunately, the A Most Violent Year and Margin Call director walked away from the project, citing “creative differences.” Mark Wahlberg was already attached to the film at the time, and following Chandor’s departure, the actor might’ve had a hand in bringing aboard Lone Survivor director, Peter Berg, as his replacement....

‘Jack Reacher: Never Go Back’ Trailer: Tom Cruise Pummels His Way To Justice By Angie Han/June 22, 2016 5:49 am EST Last week we got our first look at Jack Reacher: Never Go Back thanks to Entertainment Tonight.

‘Spectre’ Bond Girls Reveal New Photos And Character Details By Angie Han/July 21, 2015 6:30 am EST Every Bond movie’s gotta have its Bond girls, and Spectre has four of them. Although maybe “Bond girls” isn’t really the correct term here. “I don’t consider myself a Bond girl,” Léa Seydoux said back in February. “I think I’m not really the stereotyped Bond girl.” In any case, Spectre does have four kickass female characters, played by Seydoux, Monica Bellucci, Naomie Harris, and Stephanie Sigman, and today we have the opportunity to get to know them a little better....

‘Stranger Things’ Trailer: Netflix Takes A Pinch Of Amblin And A Cup Of Stephen King… By Jacob Hall/June 9, 2016 9:30 am EST Netflix is producing so many original shows these days that it’s often hard to keep up, with much of their original programming falling through the cracks in the crowded television landscape.

A New Betty Boop Animated Series Is In The Works, But What Does This Character Even Look Like In 2016? By Jacob Hall/Feb. 12, 2016 2:00 pm EST Any character with longevity risks losing their identity.

Google Patents Social Media Spoiler Software By Germain Lussier/April 8, 2015 11:30 am EST There are few things more frustrating than the speed with which the Internet posts spoilers. The second a character dies on TV, there are hundreds of online articles about it, and thousands of tweets. If there’s a surprise in a movie? Good luck holding that for the opening. The second something is seen, avoiding the spoiler is like navigating a mine field....
