Back in 1984, magic was made with the production of the now-beloved film Ghostbusters. For the uninformed, I’d suggest going and watching the episode of Netflix’s show The Movies That Made Us about the production of the film. For the sake of this article, I’ll sum it up in a few words: hectic and improbable. Somehow, they overcame all of their
Read MoreThe latest entry in the Marvel Cinematic Universe, Eternals, debuted last weekend to mixed critical reception but rave reviews from fans. Although Eternals may be slightly divisive, it’s also the biggest swing the MCU has taken in its 13-year history. Chloé Zhao’s cosmic epic boasts the most diverse cast of any superhero movie and tackles deep themes, pitting a team of
Read MoreSince I’d first heard of Apple TV’s Finch, I’ve been interested. It reminded me of Neill Blomkamp’s 2015 film Chappie, whose last 15 minutes interested me when I caught it on TV once and never watched it again.

Well, buying so many at one time means that some of them are condemned to sit in my ever-growing collection until I get the random urge to sit down and watch them. That was the case after I

But he’s also a director that likes to take his time, and I can understand why some people lose patience with a film like this. I’m not going to pretend that my first viewing went down easy, it didn’t, but it reminds me a lot of Villeneuve’s
