It’s Christmas in July for Johnny Depp fans.The debut trailer for Depp’s upcoming holiday movie, Ebenezer, dropped last night (July 23), heralding the actor’s return as a lead star in a big screen movie.Depp plays classic literary character Ebenezer Scrooge in the dark adaptation, his first major studio lead role since he played Gellert Grindelwald in 2018’s Fantastic Beasts: The Crimes of Grindelwald.Depp appeared in 2020’s Minamata and 2023’s Jeanne du Barry, but those were independent international films that received limited theatrical runs.The marketing for Ebenezer really hones in on Depp’s longstanding status as pop culture’s reigning off-beat, on-screen misfit.…

It takes something truly special for a sci-fi show to be worthy of being called perfect; and it’s even more admirable when a series achieves that title with a limited number of episodes. Throughout the years, we’ve seen several sci-fi shows and miniseries that have demonstrated just how close sci-fi television can come to genuine perfection with less than 20 episodes. From historic achievements in the art of science fiction, like the Battlestar Galactica 2003 miniseries; to shows that are still ongoing, like the incredible Severance, several sci-fi shows over the years have been borderline flawless without going over the…

Christopher Nolan’s The Odyssey is so stuffed with technical triumphs that singling out one feels a little like complimenting Poseidon on his puddles. The world’s largest operational Viking ship replica! The first film photographed entirely on IMAX! A strapping, 3.5‑tonne stallion of a Trojan Horse! All remarkable. All very Nolan. But his most unlikely filmmaking feat? Making the Cyclops feel real.Polyphemus has had a tough time of it – especially on the big screen. A bit of dodgy design here, some cut-rate CGI there. He needs to look impossible, yet believable. Sadly, most of the time, the one-eyed giant ends up tumbling out of his cave and…

Tom Holland, Hollywood’s worst secret keeper, says Jean Grey isn’t in Spider-Man: Brand New Day.Sure, Jan.The British actor was doing an interview with Brazilian content creator Natalia Kreseur to promote the upcoming superhero flick when the interviewer slyly tried to get him to reveal if the X-Men hero, rumored to be played by Stranger Things star Sadie Sink this time around, is in the movie.“Well, she’s not in this movie, but it would be pretty cool,” Holland, after squirming in his chair, replied when asked if Jean Grey could somehow help MJ (played by Zendaya) remember her relationship with Peter Parker.In…

Few cancelled movies have inspired quite as much fan campaigning as Coyote vs. Acme. After Warner Bros. Discovery shelved the completed film for a tax write-off, many believed the live-action/animated hybrid would never see the light of day. Instead, the project was rescued, given a theatrical release, and has now reached the final stage of its unlikely comeback. And we couldn’t be happier. We’ve just seen the final chaotic trailer for Coyote vs. Acme, and it’s more than just a courtroom comedy that pits one of animation’s most famous underdogs against the company responsible for decades of explosive failures. As…

Silent cinema has long had a reputation of antiquity, seen by most of the 21st century film audience as outdated, irrelevant and culturally redundant. The narrative of film itself has always been driven by the advent of popular new technology. In 1927, The Jazz Singer took audiences by storm, shifting popular cinema into the era of talkies from the 1930s onwards. Left behind was the era of silent cinema, an outdated modem shaped by emphatic performances, decadent intertitles, and erratic physical comedians of vaudeville such as Buster Keaton and Harry Langdon. It’s a period of cinema history far often left to moulder away…
