There was a huge explosion not even ten minutes after Gunn posted a video to his Twitter detailing the first ten projects of the new DC Universe....
Recreating a role defined by a comedy genius is dangerous business that rarely pays off. Steve Martin is not Peter Sellers and his interpretation of the bumbling Inspector Clouseau will undoubtedly draw criticism for failing to achieve the mark. That said, the latest adaptation of The Pink Panther has its laughs and is by no means a disaster. It is purely slapstick comedy with a few sight gags that borderline cleverness....
For nearly five decades, the comedy team The Three Stooges produced films, performances, vaudeville acts, and more. Typically, the acts featured three of their titular, oddball stooges. Considered by many to be a legendary comedy trio, The Three Stooges featured six members — or “stooges” — in their time, but none were as popular a lineup as Moe Howard, Larry Fine, and Curly Howard. It was under this Stooges trio that the group began working with Columbia Pictures: a distributor that would grant the group fame and injury alike....

There is a continuous debate about who should be the next James Bond, but not who should direct the next movie. After Daniel Craig concluded his time as the MI5 spy, it’s time for a new actor and director to transform the franchise and take it to new and interesting places. Through the years, most James Bond directors were technicians without their own vision. They knew how to create spectacular action scenes, but the development of the characters or the composition of the frame weren’t their main interests....

When Empire of Light first came Tom Brooke’s way, the English actor wasn’t interested in work. Though he had worked with director Sam Mendes before — he played Edgar in Mendes’ London stage production of King Lear in 2014 — and thoroughly enjoyed his experience, he was in the middle of grieving the loss of his mother. Things changed when the script was sent over, and Brooke realized that Empire of Light was, as outlined by Deadline, Mendes’ tribute to his own mother....
Toonami has been a staple of Cartoon Network’s programming since 1997, and this year is celebrating its 25th anniversary. A combination of the words “cartoon” and “tsunami,” the tiny themed spot between commercials and cartoons has grown into a fully interactive experience with its own characters, storylines, and video games. While we weren’t introduced to our friendly robotic host T.O.M. until two years after the program’s inception, Toonami has always been the go-to source for cartoons for the discerning PG-13 viewer....
Fans of Top Gun have been waiting for 35 years for a sequel, and the wait is over. Filmed in 2018 and initially slated for a summer 2019 release, Top Gun: Maverick was pushed to the summer of 2020 to allow for “production to work out all the complex flight sequences,” according to Deadline.

Tron 3, also known as Tron: Ares, is officially moving forward after years of uncertainty. Jared Leto and Joachim Rønning are going to champion the project after they have been working for years to bring it to life. The Tron IP has technically never been a success.
