Why 2022 Marks The Return Of The Summer Blockbuster

Before the pandemic, movie theaters were a hot spot. Everyone couldn’t wait to head to the cinema, pay for overpriced popcorn, and watch a new film on the big screen. Then the dreaded quarantine descended, and the way films were released changed forever. Movies were now sold to streaming services, and their mixture with the over-saturated content market left something to be desired. Box office ratings took an 80% drop in 2020, and moviegoers thought there was no coming back from that....

The Dark Knight Returns To Bedfordshire

Through a bit of clever misdirection, it seems that Batman and the Joker have returned to Bedfordshire, England. Signs bearing the letters ‘RFK’ lead to the Cardington airship sheds, where, according to Bedford Today, The Dark Knight is being filmed. It is believed that the initials RFK stand for Rory’s First Kiss, the fake named being used by the makers of The Dark Knight to misdirect over-eager fans. Rory is the name of director Christopher Nolan’s son, and ‘RFK’ signs were seen in Chicago while The Dark Knight was being filmed there this summer....

The Fate Of Femme Fatale From Noir To Superhero

“Medusa, in effect, became the archetypal femme fatale: a conflation of femininity, erotic desire, violence, and death,” says Kiki Karoglou, associate curator in the Met’s Department of Greek and Roman Art and curator of Dangerous Beauty. She explains: “Beauty, like monstrosity, enthralls, and female beauty in particular was perceived — and, to a certain extent, is still perceived — to be both enchanting and dangerous, or even fatal.” In cinema, the femme fatale archetype tightly occupied the niche of detective thrillers, but over time they left the confines of this framework and ventured far beyond them to appear as double-crossers like Qi’ra in Solo: A Star Wars Story, anti-heroines in comic book adaptations like Catwoman in The Batman, or even lead their own movies, like Atomic Blonde....

The Janes Review Fighting For Abortion Rights Before Roe V Wade

Once, in the United States, it was fairly easy for women to get abortions. Some may say it was a common occurrence in colonial America for those who could access it, but by the mid-1800s, it became illegal in almost every state. What ensued in the decades after the criminalization of abortion would be a long, arduous fight between those who thought it was their right to have an abortion and those who saw it as a threat to their religious beliefs....

As the dust settles on Warner Bros. Discovery’s merger and the subsequent cost-cutting exercise that have seen the cancelation of Batgirl and other high-profile projects, the partially owned The CW has now taken over the reins as upheaval capital of the industry.
