Joker has hit cinemas and its easily going to be one of the most controversial films of the year. It was making the headlines even before the film was released. Why is that you ask? It’s due to the violence in the movie. Not just the violence, but the type of violence. There are scenes…

It’s not every day that we get to see a new actor take on the role of the Joker on the big screen, yet last week audiences were introduced to Joaquin Phoenix’s version of the iconic villain in Joker. The last actor to play the role was, of course, Jared Leto, and that particular performance…
Director: Todd Philipps Starring: Joaquin Phoenix, Robert De Niro, Zazie Beetz When it was revealed that Warner Bros. Pictures and DC Comics had greenlit a standalone Joker movie, I was slightly suspicious. I didn’t feel that the character needed to be revisited after Heath Ledger’s turn as the infamous DC Comics villain. And after having…
Yes, people! It’s officially official. Stranger Things season 4 is happening! Season 3 of Netflix’s hit show ended on a bit of a cliffhanger which had people desperate to know whether a fourth season was in the work or not and it was all a bit silent on that front – until now, that is!…

So, Spider-Man is now back in the Marvel Cinematic Universe after it looked like Sony and Marvel had decided to go their separate ways, leaving us – the children – worrying about what happened with Mummy and Daddy and why they were fighting. Turns out it was all down to money, and things have been…
Matthew Vaughn has made some brilliant films in the past, and one of his very best has to be the very first Kingsman movie, but he’s opted to take a slightly different route with the third film in the franchise, which is called The King’s Man. I’m not going to lie, I didn’t much care…
So, Marvel Studios and Sony Pictures finally reached an agreement meaning that Spider-Man will be part of the MCU once again, but what does this news mean for the future of Venom? It was touch and go for a while there, but things have been straightened out and Marvel and Sony will produce a third…
The Uncharted movie has been in development hell over at Sony Pictures for what seems a lifetime now. Directors have come and gone, as well as stars. At one point it looked like Mark Wahlberg was set to play the lead, but he was eventually replaced by Tom Holland after it was revealed that Sony…
Jeff Goldblum is a very excitable character, and he only tends to be involved in projects that really get his creative juices flowing. That’s probably not the best opening sentence, but it’ll have to do in this case. It was revealed earlier this week that Jeff Goldblum, Sam Neill and Laura Dern would all be…
We were all a bit worried there for a second. A few weeks ago, it was revealed that Marvel and Sony Pictures wouldn’t be making a third Spider-Man movie together, which just seemed crazy to me. It was reported that they couldn’t agree on how to split the earnings. It was suggested that Marvel wanted…
This Birds of Prey movie sounds very interesting. It was a project which got underway after Margot Robbie fell in love with the character of Harley Quinn on the set of Suicide Squad and the comic books she’s part of. The Birds of Prey comics are brilliant. You have to check them out if you…
“When people get desperate, the knives come out.” This is the line that stuck out the most to me in the new trailer for Rian Johnson’s upcoming murder mystery thriller, Knives Out. Already this film looks brilliant on paper. The writer/director of Star Wars: The Last Jedi, Brick and Looper. A frankly ludicrously talented cast,…
There’s been a huge amount of buzz surrounding Todd Phillips’ Joker movie. The film already received the Golden Lion award at the Venice Film Festival, and many experts are claiming that it’ll be in the running for the Best Film Oscar in 2020, which would make it the first-ever comic book movie to be nominated…
James Gunn has been hard at work finishing off his script for The Suicide Squad which will be his first-ever DC Comics movie. That’s pretty exciting news in itself. The director of Guardians of the Galaxy and Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 2 made the headlines after he was sacked from Vol. 3 for some…
James Gunn’s The Suicide Squad is coming to cinemas, but fans are still a bit confused regarding its actual release date, especially here in the UK. Why is that, you ask? Well, it’s because officially Warner Bros. Pictures and DC Comics haven’t announced an official UK release date yet. Gunn’s The Suicide Squad will be…
Director: David Leitch Starring: Dwayne Johnson, Jason Statham, Idris Elba, Vanessa Kirby, Cliff Curtis and Helen Mirren Ok, so answer me this question: how can you make a huge summer blockbuster hit and it not be tied to a superhero property? Answer: get Dwayne Johnson and Jason Statham in a movie together and tie it…
The very first trailer for Netflix’s The Irishman has hit the Internet, and it looks like Robert De Niro, Joe Pesci and Al Pacino are well and truly back in the gangster frame of mind. The Irishman has been a long time coming. Martin Scorsese has been working on this picture for what seems like…
There’s a new fan theory on the web which is suggesting that Ella Lopez will be taking a trip to Hell in Lucifer season 5. Lucifer season 5 is going to be the very last season of the beloved show, and that’s a sad thing to hear, but, I’m pretty certain that Netflix will do…
