I just heard back from a test screening of the new Resident Evil movie, and the reaction was overwhelmingly positive! Apparently, it’s a super fast-paced, non-stop thrill ride – only 90 minutes long and just goes. People are saying the film really focuses on building tension, and one viewer even compared it to a horror take on Fury Road – you know, that incredibly intense Mad Max sequel from a few years back. Sounds like it’s going to be a wild ride!

Varang, a leader from the Na’vi Fire Clan in Ash Village, introduced audiences to a previously unseen and much more unsettling side of Pandora. Her homeland had been destroyed by a volcanic eruption, which led her to connect with fire and incorporate it into her spiritual practices. The filmmakers, Chaplin and Lang, actually had a personal connection to volcanoes that went beyond their roles in the movie.

Released in 2018, Maniac is a captivating sci-fi thriller that mixes psychological drama with a bizarre and imaginative setting. Starring Emma Stone and Jonah Hill, the show centers on Annie and Owen, two people who join a strange drug trial that claims to cure mental health issues without any negative consequences. However, the experiment quickly goes awry.

The Star Wars series Andor is widely praised for its realistic and politically complex storytelling, attracting viewers who might not typically watch Star Wars. Now, a new Marvel show is taking a similar approach, offering thought-provoking parallels to real-world political issues with the same unflinching honesty.

Emerald Fennell’s new take on “Wuthering Heights,” starring Jacob Elordi, arrived in theaters on February 13th, perfect for Valentine’s Day. Following a successful run in cinemas, the historical drama became available to rent or buy online on March 31st, and quickly became popular on digital platforms.

Interestingly, the show may have already introduced a character who could take on a similar role to Seven while we wait to see if she returns. The story arc featuring Badgey, the dangerous hologram, led to the creation of Goodgey, a friendly version who stayed with the crew for the rest of the series. Goodgey shares a lot of similarities with Seven, and can even be considered a continuation of her story within the show.

HBO’s Years and Years is a truly original show. It’s a smart, disturbing, and emotional blend of science fiction, a bleak vision of the future, and political commentary that feels surprisingly relevant to our lives. The show’s predictions are often eerily accurate, and it quickly grabs your attention – you’ll be hooked within the first 15 minutes.

For me, the original Star Trek is still the best! William Shatner as Captain Kirk was just iconic. Watching him command the USS Enterprise – and let’s be real, it’s the original Enterprise, the NCC-1701 – always felt special. I loved the whole crew: Spock, Bones, Sulu, Uhura, and of course, Scotty keeping everything running smoothly down in engineering. It just doesn’t get any better!
