One of geekdoms favorite creators on The Belko Experiment and where hes at with Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. James Gunn:Yeah. Being completely honest, I wrote this movie right around the time I was getting a divorce. I had just gotten divorced, and the movie got greenlit. We were going to shoot it, and I just wanted to be around my friends and family. It just didnt seem to be the way I wanted to spend the next few months of my life....

National Geographic’s MARS pushed along an innovation in the virtual reality attraction space. Those are conservative estimates. How Do You Land On A VR Mars? They had roughly two months to go from VR concept to fully-engaged Mars mission. What they essentially had to do was develop a full-fledged virtual reality ride, the first of its kind. Nobodys ever been to Mars, and certainly not us. You have to ask yourself those questions....

Watch Trollhunters if you have kids. Watch Trollhunters if you don’t have kids. This includes Guillermo del TorosTrollhunters, set to hit Netflix on December 23rd. We had the chance to view four of the seasons 26 episodes. Heres what we thought… A vast civilization where good trolls live and evil trolls lurk. For centuries, these lands have been protected by one warrior. The same is true forTrollhunters. That excitement translates to the screen and to the viewer....

The Westworld finale vindicates many fan theories and in turn legitimizes internet puzzle-solving narratives on television. The first season ofWestworldis over. It ranged from superb to merely good, to bad in one particular instance. This isnt humanitys world anymore… its hers its the hosts. This is a wonderful ending, thematically and narratively. Even beyond the confines of the show itself, its the perfect ending for our times right now. No, not because of Donald Trump or global warming, or any of those other actually important things....

Behind the scenes of the sci-fi drama starring Amy Adams and Jeremy Renner. I thought that was such a poetic, strong and beautiful story. And you read the short story first before any screenplay? Yeah, yeah, yeah. I was introduced to the short story first, and I read it. For me, it was a major priority. I wanted the aliens to fell like a new experience. I wanted the Heptapod to be as far away from human beings as possible....

Hour Of The Wolf is a surrealist horror that gets under the skin. And it’s not alone… There are some terrible images that have been placed in my head over the years by films. They come back to haunt me, and are unforgettable. Im talking about Ingmar Bergmans 1968 film, the disturbing and weirdHour Of The Wolf. He takes Alma (Liv Ullmann), his pregnant partner, with him. It is the hour when the demons are most powerful....

We know this is a throwback, and that is why its magnificent. So c’mon let them dance, and join in if you might. The grimmer the time period mightve been in American life, the more welcome the toe-tapping. It is also what allows Chazelle and company the liberty to go where those celluloid classics never could. Seb, meanwhile, is an Angeleno lifer. The third act of the movie dramatically reduces the musical numbers while heightening the intensity of life....

Getting Passengers to the screen has been a prolonged job for producer Neal Moritz. Now here we are on a huge set. Can you talk us through that process at all? Well this is probably some of the biggest sets Ive ever been on. We have five other sets at another studio, but this is our biggest one. Theyre normally on location. Here it kind of feels like were on our own spaceship....

It was in that book where we first met Cat Grant, by the way. Superman first appeared inAction Comics#1 in 1938 and he was created by Jerry Siegel and Joe Shuster. This obscure character is…oh, cmon, who am I kidding. You know all this stuff, right? Lets get to the good stuff! Its still a recognizably Superman look, though. The Clark Kent look is pretty standard, but the tan Harrington jacket is important....

Because usually those movies dont travel overseas well. It might play well in America, but its not going to play well elsewhere in the world. Three years ago, that number was at 25%. Studios, instead, have tended to go for a two-tier approach. Its an area where big profits are being made. However, while nobody has been looking, it seems that mid-budget movies have quietly come back into fashion. This autumn, its far from an isolated example....

The future of the Final Fantasy franchise isn’t clear, but it’s certainly bright. Its a striking moment of sight and song marred by execution. In short, its a snapshot of the best and worst ofFinal Fantasy XV. Sadly, that is especially true of the new real-time combat system. Ad content continues below Unfortunately,Final Fantasy XVs combat does sacrifice some of the series flavor. Those double team attacks are by far the best part about the combat....

Brian Huskey has been a force in alternative comedy over the past few years. Neighbors House, Huskey is finally given a starting vehicle worthy of his talents. Created by Huskey, Jason Mantzoukas, and Jesse Falcon, and executive produced by Rob Corddry,Mr. Neighbors Houseis like a nightmare version ofMr. Rogersif Jeffrey Dahmer and Norman Bates were hired to do re-writes on the project. Huskey stars in this brilliant, upsetting, magically repressive send-up of childrens television....

In this flashback episode Greg does his best as a single dad and the Gems struggle to accept Steven. ThisSteven Universereview contains spoilers. It also helps the show has so much back story at this point to draw on. His song, I Could Never Be Ready perfectly illustrates his struggle with fatherhood, single fatherhood especially. Its a shame I dont see more love for Greg fromSteven Universefans because this guy is a trooper....
