Obligatory Top 10 Highest Grossing Movies Of 2020 Post:
Oh god, Tenet feels like it came out about 17 years ago now...
Tom, here’s your next column: Figure out what the LEAST successful major film (that is to say, the movie that lost the most money when accounting for budget vs gross) of each year is since whatever year those records are easily available for. Call the column Bombs Away or something like that. Give Av Club readers the…
Well, as the Johansson lawsuit (and I think the whole Tenet debacle) shows, there is also a big financial incentive for actors/directors under current contract structures for their movies to screen theatrically. When they don’t, they don’t get as much money and the theaters obviously don’t get as much money. The…
That’s something I do miss about the nineties-black film didn’t need white approval to be successful, nor did its creators think so.
i took an impromptu trip to LA in january of 2020 for a few days and saw this at the arclight. it was definitely the weed pen, the fact that i was on vacation and the nostalgia (the first bad boys in particular was huge for me as a kid) but i was basically crying the whole time this movie made me so happy.
Her fake New York accent is insanely thick (and very terrible) in Birds of Prey.
You know, if Bad Boys for Life really is the last Hollywood cinema blockbuster, it’s a fitting one. A charming enough movie with solid stars and action scenes, that didn’t just earn the throne of ‘highest-grossing of the year’ by pure franchise rite and studio brute-force... but is still a major studio production that…
Tom, have to say, it’s been a pleasure following this column. I’ve been looking forward to it every second week. It’s gonna be hard to find something equally interesting to fill the gap that this’ll leave.
I’d say it’s more of an issue when it’s actors/directors weighing in, for two reasons:
“Lowrey and Burnett do a little globetrotting, going on a revenge mission to Mexico that makes absolutely zero sense for Miami cops.”
He’ll move onto movies that haven’t been released yet and then once those run out, the best films that have yet to be made of future years that haven’t happened yet.
I’m going to recycle my post from the previous time Bad Boys for Life was mentioned here if that’s OK:
I keep coming here because I’m old and out of touch, and it’s the only way I get news of things in the entertainment world. So I’ll probably be here until the site inevitably dies. But I’m not happy about it.
This has been a great series, and it’s kept me coming back to the AV Club for each update. And now that the series is over....well, that’s probably it for me around here. Here’s to a genuinely great series of essays, and here’s to what was once one of the finest websites around. And finally, here’s a hearty fuck you…
Tom, you are the man. Six decades worth of cinema and you made each article such a captivating read. I can’t wait to see what series you come up with next for A.V. Club- will definitely be in it for the long run.
Everyone is very attractive and it’s well-lit.
I think that’s about it in the pros column.
I didn’t watch it while high, and it’s still almost impossible to remember anything about it, other than it’s funded by a millionaire who wants everyone to go by numbers so he won’t get attached to them when they die.
Oh, and the…

I’m incredibly excited to watch this and am rooting for this movie to succeed. I’m a big fan of Kim’s Convenience, a big fan of Simu Liu, a big fan of Awkwafina, and a big fan of the MCU telling more diverse stories.
