I can’t believe it, but a remake of a fantasy film from 16 years ago, starring Gerard Butler, is currently the number one movie on Netflix in the US! It’s been a great year for Butler, really. We got the new Geeland 2: Migration action sequel, and it’s awesome to see his 2021 thriller, Copshop (with Frank Grillo and Alexis Louder – seriously, check it out if you haven’t!), finally getting some love on streaming too. It was totally underrated when it first came out.
Tim Burton’s Batman movie was a stark departure from the lighthearted television series, and it sparked both controversy and a devoted following. Unlike previous adaptations, Burton drew inspiration from the grimmer, more complex storylines found in classic Batman comics like The Dark Knight Returns, Year One, and The Killing Joke. This resulted in a more serious, less comedic portrayal of the Caped Crusader, and a darker overall tone. The film also introduced iconic elements that defined Burton’s vision of Batman, including a now-famous line that nearly didn’t make the final cut.
Inspired by Michael Connelly’s books, the Netflix series has expanded on the world of the main character, Mickey Haller, particularly by developing a richer cast of supporting characters. Lorna, Mickey’s former wife and reliable office manager, has become a crucial part of the show as it has progressed.
The Hollywood Reporter has confirmed that Christina Hodson, who wrote The Flash, will also be writing The Brave and the Bold for DC Studios. She’s been working on the project since at least last fall. This adds to the existing team, which includes director Andy Muschietti, who previously directed versions of Batman in The Flash.
These romantic pairings have sparked some debate, as romance wasn’t a major focus for Spock in the original Star Trek series. However, both the Uhura and Chapel connections are based on events that actually happened in Star Trek history. In the first season back in 1966, Uhura was clearly shown flirting with Spock, though he didn’t reciprocate. Nurse Chapel’s feelings for Spock were even more apparent, but a key hint about their potential connection was easily overlooked.
After accusations of domestic abuse involving his ex-wife, Amber Heard, and a lost libel case, Johnny Depp found himself largely shut out of Hollywood. He was replaced in the Fantastic Beasts movies and didn’t get any major acting roles for several years. Disney also moved away from him, choosing to reboot the Pirates of the Caribbean series with Margot Robbie instead of including Depp in future films.
The first season of Citadel aimed to hook viewers with its ambitious scope, but it didn’t meet expectations despite a massive $300 million budget – making it one of the priciest TV series ever created.
Jeanine Mason stars as Luz, a vigilante who targets wealthy and powerful individuals she believes exploit others. The story begins with Luz seeking revenge on a group of rich men on an island with young women, a premise clearly inspired by recent, highly publicized events. However, the character of Luz offers viewers a fresh and complex perspective to consider.
