Movies

As a film buff, what really grabs me about these movies is how different they are. They don’t feel like retreads of old epics at all. There’s no formula here – no predictable genre or style. Instead, you get these incredibly diverse stories. They can span years, be deeply connected to real history, come from all over the world, and even change moods on a dime. What I love most is that they’re unapologetically themselves – they don’t try to simplify things just to appeal to a specific audience.

This horror movie centers around a group of high school students who discover an ancient Aztec whistle. When they play it, they unknowingly attract the forces that will ultimately cause their deaths. Desperate to avoid their grim futures, they start researching the whistle’s mysterious history.

A 30-second commercial during this year’s Super Bowl cost $10 million, but over 60 brands still chose to advertise. Many other companies wanted a spot, but couldn’t secure one.

I recently heard from the younger Nolan brother about his early look at The Odyssey, and honestly, it sounds incredible. It’s still a good five months before it comes out in theaters, but he shared his thoughts, and I’m already hyped!

A legal drama released in 2025 was widely considered one of the worst TV shows ever. Murphy’s earlier true crime series, Monster: The Ed Gein Story, also received poor reviews when it debuted on Netflix a few weeks prior. However, Murphy had previously created a highly acclaimed and still-popular true crime series for Netflix in 2022.

This year’s Super Bowl had fewer exciting movie trailers than usual. Marvel Studios didn’t reveal any new projects, and most trailers showed footage fans had already seen. Disney’s trailer for The Mandalorian & Grogu was particularly disappointing, offering little to excite viewers.

I was blown away by the All-American Halftime Show! I’ve seen the numbers – over 25 million views just on YouTube and Rumble, which is incredible. Knowing that doesn’t even include everyone watching with friends and family, the real number of people who saw it is probably much, much higher. And it’s still getting more views every day as the numbers keep coming in from TV and other platforms!

The new movie will focus on Milly Alcock as the main character, building on her short appearance in James Gunn’s previous film. It will delve into her history, promising a much darker story than the one we know about Superman’s childhood.

Okay, so according to Netflix’s website, TUDUM, the Mind Flayer is actually gone! They’re saying it won’t be coming back in any future Stranger Things shows or seasons. The only way we might see it again is if they do a prequel story, like that new animated series, Tales of ’85. Honestly, it’s a relief to know that threat is finally dealt with!

Fans and critics agree that the latest version of Texas Chainsaw Massacre has a big hurdle to overcome. It’s not enough to simply make Leatherface frightening; the filmmakers need to understand what originally made him so terrifying. Previous attempts to bring the franchise back haven’t been very successful, and have largely been forgotten, because the core of the story was misinterpreted. If A24 doesn’t recognize the tragic roots of the film, it risks repeating the failures of past installments.
