Why The Dark Hills Divide Deserves An Animated Adaptation

The first in the broader series of The Land of Elyon, The Dark Hills Divide, is a true accomplishment in its genre. It is efficient and atmospheric, with a fantastical world that harbors mystery and inspires awe within every detail. Its ability to capture its audience’s imagination speaks volumes to the author, Patrick Carman. Unfortunately, for all the series’ success in the literary world, it still remains untouched regarding adaptation....

Why The Overnight Looks To Be A Promising Entry In Demonic Horror

Since 1973’s The Exorcist, filmmakers have been inspired to expand upon a subgenre of horror that reached new heights in William Friedkin’s drama/horror hybrid. We often find the female child or woman most disturbing when afflicted with demonic possession. Long hair can sometimes cloak a demon’s inhuman glare, and there are few things more disturbing than a fem ghoul giggling or imitating childlike mannerisms. The Overnight has clearly tapped into this vibe, at least judging by the trailer....

Zachary Levi Hopes To Meet Henry Cavill In Another Universe As Dceu Crumbles

With Henry Cavill out as Superman in the DCU, all hopes of future films featuring this beloved incarnation of the Man of Steel have gone down the drain. That obviously affects Dwayne “The Rock” Johnson, who spent six years negotiating behind the scenes for Cavill’s Superman to return in Black Adam, as he was planning a Superman vs. Black Adam battle. Additionally, with Peter Safran and James Gunn seemingly fizzling out the DCEU continuity in favor of evolving their vision of the DCU, chances are Zachary Levi may also be finished as Shazam following the release of Shazam!...

Why The People S Joker Should Be Freed

“We live in a society.” This phrase, completely void of any actual meaning beyond the tautological, has become incessant background noise to our never-ending online discourse. These five words have somehow become linked to three radically different portrayals of the infamous Batman villain, the Joker. Heath Ledger won a posthumous Oscar for his work in The Dark Knight (2008), Jared Leto gave a notoriously bizarre performance in the equally abysmal Suicide Squad (2016), while Joaquin Phoenix sculpted the character into a Scorsese-lite protagonist in the semi-controversial Joker (2019)....

Why The Simpsons Season 34 Is A Turning Point For The Series

Since the series’ debut on December 17, 1989, The Simpsons has gone through many ups and downs. Fans and critics consider most of the show’s first decade to be the golden age with many classic episodes. There’s been a decline in quality in the following years, with occasional moments that re-captured the program’s glory. 2007’s The Simpsons Movie is thought by many to be the last gasp of the golden era, but to be fair, there have been a lot of worthwhile episodes that came after....

Worst Rated Superhero Movies Of All Time Ranked

Make no mistake, we are living in a time of superheroes. Now a global juggernaut, Marvel Studios can release a movie every two months and battle it out for box office numbers against its rival (or perhaps arch nemesis) DC, while movies like Black Panther and Avengers top end of year lists in terms of ticket sales. And while this list could easily be 30 entries long, for the most part the superhero films that we regard as bad are merely just boring and empty attempts at pulp adventure....
