If there’s one thing cinema has proven over time, it’s that people love drama. Whether it’s portrayed on the screen or featured off-screen, people love drama. When Francis Ford Coppola directed “Apocalypse Now,” the filming process was so intense and chaotic, an entire documentary was made about the making of movie. Based on recent reports, it looked like Coppola’s latest project, “Megalopolis,” was heading in the same direction. Neither Coppola nor his representatives had any comment on the matter then. Now they do, and it paints a completely different story. Coppola has taken aim at reports his passion project is…

These wrestling plotlines sure are full of twists and turns! Granted it’s all scripted but… wait this isn’t a script; this is the actual goings on in the executive offices of the company. Former WWE CEO and figurehead Vince McMahon announced his return as executive chairman of the board. While we assumed this would ruffle some feathers, it’s also had the effect of causing co-CEO Stephanie McMahon (Vince’s daughter) to resign her position, effective immediately. To call Vince McMahon a divisive figure would be an understatement. You can criticize him for everything from treatment of his wrestlers to inserting himself…

Filmmaker Francis Ford Coppola will go down in cinema history as one of Hollywood’s greatest directors. Along with “The Godfather” trilogy, Coppola also brought the world “Peggy Sue Got Married,” “Bram Stoker’s Dracula,” and “Apocalypse Now.” The latter of these is especially noteworthy for how it may be one of the most disastrous film shoots in history.Coppola’s latest film “Megalopolis” has long been in the works. His grand opus, the project was first floated in the 1980s with starts and stalls until 2019. While it seemed the film was finally picking up steam (as well as an impressive cast), things…

Oh “John Wick,” you never cease to find new ways to thrill us. The premiere action series of the last 10 years will be seeing its 4th film premiering later this year. It’s hard to believe that its been almost a decade since the first movie hit theaters in the fall of 2014, but here we are. With the next adventure on the horizon, now would be the perfect time to revisit Keanu Reeves and his portrayal of a former hitman. What better way to do it than through a new 4K steelbook collector’s set? Containing 3 steelbooks concealed within…

It has been a wild ride for “Pokémon” hero Ash Ketchum. Ever since the anime series first debuted in America in 1998, audiences have been treated to the highs and lows of Ash’s journey to become a Pokémon master. Across 25 years, we’ve watched him making friends and bonding with Pikachu, only to come up short time and again to become a champion. While that eventually changed for Ash, we know his time in the series is coming to an end. His farewell will more than likely hit people right in the nostalgia bone, with a now-confirmed character’s return. Or…

Filmmaker Eli Roth carved a name for himself in the horror genre with such films as “Hostel,” “Cabin Fever,” and “The Green Inferno.” He’s also branched out a time or two with titles like “Inglorious Basterds” and “The House with a Clock In It’s Walls.” Most recently, he’s been tackling a film adaptation of “Borderlands.” The gaming franchise from Gearbox Software blends gunplay, comedy, and RPG mechanics together in a world where society has essentially fallen apart on the planet Pandora. We were recently surprised to learned Roth was NOT directing the film’s reshoots. Given Roth both writing and directing…

Oft is the case that art reflects life, and vice-versa. Sometimes you can stumble upon a story or real-life incident that reminds you of a plot of a television series or film. Then there are the times where someone is actually inspired by a piece of media directly. Leave it to the cult classic film, “Office Space” to be that kind of inspiration someone needed to pull off a crime worth hundreds of thousands of dollars. Zulily is an online shopping company that specializes largely in clothing and household items. Ermenildo Valdez Castro was a software engineer for the company…

“Meet the new boss; same as the old boss.” While these words didn’t pertain to the world of professional wrestling then sung by Roger Daltrey of The Who, they remain true. In the summer of 2022, a shockwave was sent through the world of entertainment sports when Vince McMahon, owner of the WWE, announced he was retiring. It wasn’t exactly a gracious exit either which is why the news that he’s now coming back, particularly shocking. Yes, McMahon is back as executive chairman of the board of directors for the WWE; something he is apparently within his rights to do…

There are a few notable directors who have tried their hands at music over the years. The most notable probably being John Carpenter, who kept composing “Halloween” movies long after he stopped directing them. There’s also David Lynch who uh…well, just look up the video for “Crazy Clown Time” and you’ll see where there’s an “uh…” earlier in this sentence. Rarer still is a composer who becomes a director. Michael Giacchino is already an Oscar, Emmy, and Grammy winner for his musical works across media, and will direct his first feature film. And it’s all thanks to “Them!.” Much to…

Partway through the 1st quarter of tonight’s NFL Monday Night Football game, Buffalo Bills safety Damar Hamlin collapsed on the field, unresponsive. This is a developing story that we’ll continue to update on as it progresses. Here are the details we have so far. Please note videos of the incident may be distressing to watch. It is not outwardly gory or explicit, but given we do not know the medical status of Damar Hamlin, that in itself makes it unsettling.We will not be linking to the video. Hamlin makes the stop on Bengals wide-receiver Tee Higgins. Though a hard hit,…
