“Thanks for sticking it out with me.” Such a simple line keeps so much weight in a low-budget but hard-hitting film like To the Moon — whose title derives not from outer space, but from that little line we utter to loved ones (“I love you to the moon”). In the first moments of the film, Dennis (Scott Friend) thanks his girlfriend Mia (Madeleine Morgenweck) for “sticking it out” with him, and we slowly learn why: To the Moon explores a weekend getaway gone wrong....

Back in the early 2010s, there was a wave of YA fiction adaptations, and they all had a common element: dystopian stories, with The Hunger Games, Divergent, and Maze Runner being only a few examples....

Now known as one of the best horror comedies of all time, audiences often forget there were some incredibly emotional scenes peppered throughout the satirical zombie flick....

“Cyberspace. A consensual hallucination experienced daily by billions of legitimate operators, in every nation, by children being taught mathematical concepts […] A graphic representation of data abstracted from the banks of every computer in the human system. Unthinkable complexity. Lines of light ranged in the nonspace of the mind, clusters and constellations of data. Like city lights, receding.” So wrote William Gibson in the 1984 novel Neuromancer, quite a while before ‘cyberspace’ became a common term to denote the shared unreality of our digital interactions....
