As a thriller fan, I’ve seen it all – from gritty serial killer stories to classic detective tales and even gangster flicks. What always grabs me is the way these films delve into the world of crime. But you might be surprised to learn the 1980s, despite being known for its bright and cheerful vibe, actually gave us some incredibly dark and complex mysteries. We’re talking neo-noir, true crime dramas based on real events, and a whole lot more. Honestly, if you’re a fan of ’80s cinema, these films are absolute must-sees – hidden gems that deserve way more attention.

Baldur’s Gate 3 features 12 different classes, and while they’re all enjoyable, the Paladin stands out as the strongest.

Interestingly, right as actor Jeremy Allen White was discussing his character’s abilities, HBO’s CEO, Casey Bloys, gave a more specific timeframe for the highly anticipated, yet divisive, new series. He told Deadline they’re still aiming for a 2027 release, but now expect it to be in early 2027. When pressed for a more precise date, Bloys clarified they weren’t ready to commit to a specific month, reiterating that it would be ‘early 2027’.

The emotional heart of the film A Mighty Wind centers around the song “A Kiss at the End of the Rainbow.” The movie follows three folk music groups from the 1960s who reunite in 2003 for a televised concert honoring their late producer. Eugene Levy and Catherine O’Hara play Mitch and Mickey, a former romantic duo who performed as “Mitch & Mickey.” They haven’t seen each other since their breakup, and their most famous song, “A Kiss at the End of the Rainbow,” always ended with a kiss before the final lyrics. As the film progresses, the main question becomes whether Mitch and Mickey will kiss again when they perform the song. During the performance, all the other comedic characters stop arguing and become completely silent, captivated by the duo’s harmonies, and eagerly await the potential kiss.

Jason Statham has become a major action star, achieving a level of recognition similar to Sylvester Stallone and Arnold Schwarzenegger. He’s proven he can shine in everything from large-scale blockbusters to smaller films, and even comedies where he gets to show off his comedic timing. His frequent collaborations with director Guy Ritchie have also been key, helping him become known for playing strong, British characters in films like The Transporter and Crank.

The upcoming film, Star Wars: Starfighter, aims to tell a completely new story within the Star Wars universe, without relying on any characters we’ve seen before. This makes it the first Star Wars film to do so since the very first movie in 1977. However, including familiar elements from previous films could ultimately harm Starfighter’s chances of success.

The Oscars have always had their share of controversial winners. Back in 1970, many viewers protested when John Wayne, known for his racist views, won Best Actor for True Grit. Later, fans of director Martin Scorsese felt unfairly treated when films like Ordinary People and Dances With Wolves won over his acclaimed movies, Raging Bull and GoodFellas. However, the idea of a clear “Oscar villain” really took hold in the late 2010s, fueled by the anxieties of the Trump era. Each year, one nominated film became a symbolic stand-in for the president, allowing online movie fans to express their frustrations. Films like La La Land, Three Billboards Outside Ebbing, Missouri, Green Book, and Joker all faced this kind of backlash. It was a tense time, and it felt strangely comforting to see these symbolic “villains” defeated – as if it meant there was hope for overcoming the challenges of the era.
