https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JM1U-Whb-P0 Hercule Poirot is back, now navigating steamy Egyptian waters rather than chilly Euro-train transit. Following the global success of 2017's Murder on the Orient Express, actor/director Kenneth Branagh reprises his turn as Agatha Christie's beloved Belgian sleuth (complete with the funky accent and well-endowed 'stache) in Death on the Nile, another classic Poirot mystery that was teased [...]
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=w4p0vjj_C8s It's a marriage lost in translation. That's the premise of writer/director Sophia Coppola's new arthouse dramedy On The Rocks. Bill Murray, who memorably teamed with Coppola almost twenty years ago for Lost in Translation, stars with and Parks & Rec's Rashida Jones as a father and daughter who reconnect in New York City when he suspects [...]

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1gPGeAYo3yU Well this is excellent. In a year where we've seen the entire summer movie season collapse in the wake of the COVID-19 pandemic, we are now officially guaranteed to get one of those summer movies this summer -- albeit at the last possible date and on a less-than-desired platform. Bill & Ted Face the [...]

Or less, depending on when you're reading this. The long wait is almost over for the biggest at-home event of the year: the full Original Cast stage production of Hamilton, the Pulitzer Prize and Tony Award winning phenomenon from actor/writer/composer Lin-Manuel Miranda. It debuts exclusively July 3, 2020 on [...]
It's the first cut from The Snyder Cut. Director Zack Snyder tweeted out the first new look of his original edit for Justice League (see video below), the DC superhero team-up movie that Snyder had to bail out of during post-production and reshoots due to a family tragedy. Avengers 1 & 2 guru Joss Whedon took [...]
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0hAL7emClFM There's something a little stale about old dudes still trying to party, and it's something that even William S. Preston Esq. and Theodore Logan can't quite shake. Nevertheless, when the heart's in the right place, it's still worth it to party on. That's the vibe of the first official trailer for Bill & Ted [...]
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=L3pk_TBkihU&t= It's not time travel. It's inversion. To put it in practical terms, it's like what John David Washington's agent is told: "You're not shooting the bullet. You're catching it." Whoa. That's about as close as I can come to describing what Tenet is about -- and I wouldn't have it any other way. The [...]
The Snyder Cut is real. All of it. And it's about to be released. Long rumored but consistently dismissed by the studio as being true, there is indeed a complete version of director Zack Snyder's 2017 DC Universe blockbuster Justice League, the DCEU mega-tentpole follow-up to Batman V Superman. After suffering a family tragedy during [...]
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eyzxu26-Wqk Tom Hanks is back in World War II, but this time he'll be fighting by sea rather than by land. And rather than the action exploding on the big screen, now it will stream straight to the small. Originally, Sony Pictures had slated Greyhound for a Father's Day weekend release in June. But now, [...]
