This just in- Johnny Depp has resigned from the Warner Bros. Pictures “Harry Potter” adjacent film series “Fantastic Beasts,” following the studio’s request he do so. This news comes after a court in the UK found in favor of tabloid The Sun after Depp sued them for libel and slander after the outlet referred to Depp as a “wifebeater” (in the case of Amber Heard’s accusations that Depp beat her repeatedly) without the words “allegedly” or “reportedly.” Depp posted to his Instagram: In light of recent events, I would like to make the following short statement.Firstly, I’d like to thank…

The more we go back and watch “Solo: A Star Wars Story,” the more we like it. It’s adventure, intrigue, action, and cheeky comedy all wrapped in a “Star Wars” package. It also seems to be something that a larger audience than one would think wants more of, either in an additional film, or a possible Disney+ series. This is something director Ron Howard has thought about, and recently commented on while speaking with the Lights Camera Barstool Podcast. No rumblings on it. This is not a spoiler, but I think there is interest in those characters. I think there’s…

File this under “reasons I’m not ever gonna be allowed to be a Navy pilot.” According to Guy Snodgrass (what a freaking AMAZING name), former pilot and Top Gun instructor’s book “TOPGUN’s Top 10: Leadership Lessons from the Cockpit,” recruits in the infamous flight school program would be fined $5 for every time they quoted Tony Scott’s 80s arial adventure flick “Top Gun.”But….all the incredibly quotable moments from the film! We think this is hilarious, but also understandable from the institution’s standpoint. To quote Snodgrass’s tome directly: I think that’s [watching Top Gun] where my real true initial love for naval aviation…

Oddly enough, we had just been watching Neil Marshall’s pretty excellent werewolf flick “Dog Soldiers” during Spooky Season, and this possible sequel news has us really excited.”Dog Soldiers,” which stars Kevin McKidd (“Rome”), Liam Cunningham (“Game of Thrones”), and Sean Pertwee (“Gotham”) was released back in 2002, and focuses on a group of special forces soldiers doing war games in the Scottish Highlands. It being the Highlands during a full moon- the group is attacked by werewolves, and a struggle to survive ensues. It’s a pretty great flick, all things considered, and we’re delighted writer/director Neil Marshall would be interested…

ITS A HALLOWEEN MIRACLE. Clive Barker, one of the great Masters of Horror, is returning to one of our favorite dark, demonic characters- Hellraiser. Barker is reportedly joining the executive producing team for HBO’s upcoming “Hellraiser” tv series, with “Halloween” reboot helmer David Gordon Green directing. The series will be written by written by Mark Verheiden (“Battlestar Galactica”) and Michael Dougherty (“Godzilla: King of the Monsters”).It will NOT be a reboot or a reimagining, but rather a “continuation” of the existing Pinhead and Cenobite lore. Clive Barker reportedly said he was “delighted the Hellraiser mythology is seeing a new life. It’s time…

This is one of those times we are very saddened to share the news- the passing of a true legendary presence in film, Sir Sean Connery. Probably best known for his part as the original 007 James Bond in the first several films based on the novels of Sir Ian Fleming, Connery was (and always will be) an icon. The statuesque actor had been suffering from a closely-guarded illness for some time, retreating to a more private life out of the public eye some years ago. Connery recently celebrated a HUGE milestone for anyone- his 90th birthday. Long time Bond…
