Ant-Man and the Wasp: Quantumania is an epic adventure film that sets up the MCU’s Phase 5 along with selling some books. In case you haven’t figured it out yet, this film is just one huge commercial for Scott Lang’s upcoming memoir, Look Out For The Little Guy. It’s still unclear if Rudd is pulling our leg and writing a novel sequel to everyone’s favorite E.T. rip-off film, Mac and Me. We’ll know for sure…

Mr. and Mrs. Smith is the rare screwball comedy to be directed by Alfred Hitchcock, supposedly as a favor to actress Carole Lombard. The film was the final film to be released while Carole Lombard was still alive. Lombard was only 33 years old when she died in a tragic plane crash nearly a year after the film’s release. One can only wonder what kind of career she would have had if not for the…

Warner Bros. released the full trailer for The Flash during the Super Bowl even though Ezra Miller has not earned any public forgiveness. Hollywood likes to think that people have amnesia, that we won’t forget actors in the news for bad reasons. There are those of us that are not looking forward to this film solely because of Miller. It is the honest truth. Where is Grant Gustin when we need him? Even his Flash…

The Walt Disney Company released their Super Bowl Ad, “Disney100 Special Look,” commemorating 100 Years of storytelling and shared memories. Speaking for myself, prepare to get emotional!

The Universal Pictures founder rescued some 350 Jews from Nazi Germany. You…
