The Marvels Arrives on Digital, Physical Media Still To Come

The Marvels is now available for fans to purchase on Digital with the 4K Ultra HD, Blu-ray and DVD releases coming on February 13. What I wrote for the theatrical release in November: After a number of films and series led to franchise fatigue for Marvel’s audience, The Marvels have managed to save the MCU. There is only a single mid-credit scene. You’re welcome to stay through the rest of the credits but there are…

The Marvels Saved the MCU

After a number of films and series led to franchise fatigue for Marvel’s audience, The Marvels have managed to save the MCU. There is only a single mid-credit scene. You’re welcome to stay through the rest of the credits but there are no post-credit scenes. What I will say about this scene is that it made me very happy.

Sundance 2020: Save Yourselves!

What should be a relaxing trip to a cabin for a week without smart phones or the Internet becomes something completely different in Save Yourselves! The film is a zany sci-fi comedy that has a lot to offer in terms of lessons.  For one, unplugging sounds like a great idea in theory.  Some of us unplug for 25 hours a week–myself included.  It’s a great way to escape from the troubles of the day.  But…

The Big Sick is One of 2017’s Best Films

The Big Sick is one of the best films to come out so far in 2017. Directed by Michael Showalter from a screenplay written by Emily V. Gordon & Kumail Nanjiani, The Big Sick stars Nanjiani, Zoe Kazan, Holly Hunter, Ray Romano, Anupam Kher, Zenobia Shroff, Adeel Akhtar, Bo Burnham, Aidy Bryant, and Kurt Braunohler.  Judd Apatow and Barry Mendel produce. To say that this film is a laugh riot would not be an understatement. …
