WhenKeanu Reevesuttered the phrase “I’m thinking I’m back” in the trailer for the firstJohn Wickfilm, it seemed like a self-aware quip intended to kickstart a self-aware homage to his career in the style ofThe ExpendablesorRed. That is almost certainly not whatChad Stahelskicreated; viewers expecting jokes and gags may have been shocked to watch a heartbreaking story about a man who is mourning the loss of his wife, and only experiences another tragedy when his new puppy is killed by vicious gangsters....

John Carpenteris mostly known for his horror movies such asHalloweenorThe Fog, but one of his best and most optimistic movies is 1984’sStarman. It’s a movie that, even though it was made by thesame guy that created Michael Myers, rocks a super 80s, very Amblin-esque aesthetic and vibe.Starmantakes Carpenter’s trademark wide shots, synth scores, and Americana that he flips on its head, and instead of applying these to a horror movie, lends it to the story of an alien trying to return home....

Marvel Studios and Disney have released a batch of new images fromThor: Ragnarok, and this movie continues to look positively excellent. Marvel droppeda new trailerover the weekend after its debut at Comic-Con, and in a refreshing change of pace, this new trailer plays almost like a sequel to the first one.

In an epic 15-year fight that tested him beyond measure, the truth drove Bilott in his unwavering conviction to fight for a community victimized by a corporation driven by greed....

Triple Frontieris not the movie you’re expecting it to be. The trailers for the long-in-the-works action-thriller went heavy on the helicopter shots, machine gun fire,Inceptionbwaaaaaahhorns, and close-ups ofBen Affleck’s concerned, bearded face to paint the picture of an explosive shoot-em-up through the jungle that Schwarzenegger might’ve signed up for in 1986. The film has these things, for sure—especially the helicopter shots, enough to makeMichael Baystraight swoon—but it’s also a much smarter, much more meditative film than marketing might have you believe....

But Sharkboy and Lavagirl are kids no more....

The guilds are beginning to weigh in as we head into the final stretch of the awards race, and today it’s the Writers Guild of America’s turn. The WGA nominations are tricky because A. Every year major films are deemed ineligible due to strict WGA rules and B. The WGA loves to throw a wild card into the bunch.

While the small-screen adaptation ofThe Last of Usfranchise is currently in the works, the plan was originally for the story of Joel and Ellie to become a film. While discussing the HBO adaptation ofThe Last of Uswith the podcastScript Apart, Naughty Dog co-presidentNeil Druckmanntouched on capturing the essence of the source material while prioritizing drama over action, separating itself from the failed movie that never took off.
