If the previous two Knives Out movies are anything to go by, I’m guessing Kerry Washington will be neither a victim nor a perpetrator — she’ll be the protagonist.

For me, the Great Unfilmable is Gene Wolfe’s body of work, particularly the Book of the New Sun novels. They’ve got plenty of action and translatable visual spectacle, but everything that makes them really special, from the unreliable narrators to the beauty of the language to the time-travel shenanigans, could not…

The City and the City was adapted for BBC 2 TV a couple years ago -- well, 2018 -- with David Morrissey as Borlú.

Also had the greatest film trailer in the history of cinema.

You seem to be under the impression that Robert DeNiro owes you something.

“Probably not even now”? How I Met Your Mother wasn’t THAT long ago, was it?

Hey girl are you Reed Richards because I have to tell you that is quite a stretch

I just watched the clip. He’s only pedaling with one leg, with manual assistance, while the other rests immobile. Which—I mean, absence of evidence does not equal evidence of absence. But this video in itself does not indicate that he has anything like full mobility.

The time period of A Christmas Story is vague and self-contradictory. The shooting script places the action only “some time in the 1940s.” The references to the film version of The Wizard of Oz place it post-1939; the Little Orphan Annie radio show ended in 1942; but there’s a reference to the White Sox trading Bill…

The twist is that the Venom  franchise saved its “hero fights a dark reflection of himself” plot for the second movie, instead of the first, as is usual for the Marvel movies. So it’s a toss-up which of the other two other plots they’ll use: will it be “Long-gone person from hero’s past returns,” which is the usual…

The “speed force” jokes just write themselves

Turn in your badge and gun.

“half-decade”?

I didn’t think Quantum was “bad,” exactly, but at its heart it wasn’t a James Bond story. It was a Camille Montes story with James Bond in a large supporting role. It’s possible to do a dual-protagonist story where both characters get a satisfying arc (The Girl with the Dragon Tattoo is a good example), but Quantum was…

It’s a hologram of Banner, not Banner himself—so the image’s human appearance could be like a Zoom filter. Bruce himself could be back in his lab in Hulked-out form, but chooses to appear in the meeting with a less-intimidating avatar. Easy-peasy.

I love the smell of gatekeeping in the morning.

Holy shit, Inside Hook is in dire need of a copy editor.

I suppose it might, to people who don’t know what words mean.

I know it’s not what you meant, but for a moment I was envisioning a theme song with lyrics that shout out the parent company.
