That was my favourite scene in the Animatrix.

Five films ago.

After almost 40 years of making nerds mad, Star Wars and Star Trek are now finally the same thing.

Related to that, The Life Aquatic was the first Wes Anderson I saw and went into it knowing Anderson was a very precise stylist, so was surprised as just how poorly made it is. The sets looked cheap and the audio sounded like there was one boom and no ADR. I thought the film was shit but the way it was made was really

My favourite thing about the hate MGS2 gets is the people who hate Raiden for being "whiny" when the thing he "whines" about is that he isn't Solid Snake, which is exactly what the players were doing too. MGS2 is still so far ahead of where games are that it's probably never going to get the respect it deserves.

The sequels deliver more on what the trailer promised.

On Netflix, the 1997 Richard Gere film Red Corner has a blurb about being framed for a murder in China and the images are of him wearing the suit from Collateral and holding a gun, with a cut above his eye and a concerned look on his face; I'd hoped it would be his version of The Fugitive. But, that image is from one

It's for people who have been on the dating market for more than two years, are in their late 20s/early 30s and are into special-effects movies for teenagers, otherwise they wouldn't be interested in that nostalgia bait wankfest.

I also expected some kind of historical epic so was blindsided by Daniel Day-Lewis being soapy for two and a half hours. The only explanation I have for that performance is that Anthony Hopkins had to drop out and he stepped in last minute.

People talk about the rhythm of his scripts but after seeing a few, they come across like dramatic, feature length versions of Seinfeld.

Power Girl is actually the T-1000.

Nobody else makes films about ugly people so why should he?

Blevins by name, Blevins by nature.

Everything beyond Empire was bad, but it all did gangbusters, so Episode I was a sure thing regardless of what was in it. It's the even more blatant with The Force Awakens: if the fandom could survive a wholly shit trilogy, then they weren't going to disown a supposedly fresh start, and yet they played it - and by the

I'm not going to lie: when it came out, Blair Witch stuff was everywhere and I thought it was real too. But I was also 10 and it wasn't long before I realised there's no way they would put a genuine snuff tape out in cinemas worldwide.

I also make up my own stories to fill the gaps in bad franchises too.

I hope it's like Looper and after half an hour drops the whole conceit of being a Star Wars movie and becomes a string of references to other, better things.

Stormtrooper main character, who from the first time we see him is anything but a stormtrooper. A female Jedi introduced in an extended, dialogue-free sequence that spends the rest of the movie doing everything from fighting with a lightsaber to using force powers to piloting the Millennium Falcon. Our legendary hero

It's a feature length toy advert made by Disney.

The article said "cranky uncles" not "racist granddads."
