According to Deadline, Avatar: Fire and Ash is predicted to reach a total of $1.3 billion worldwide by the end of its fifth weekend in theaters. While final international numbers are still being tallied, the film earned $17.6 million domestically over the Martin Luther King Jr. Day holiday, pushing it towards this impressive milestone.
The movie Nuremberg came out in the US on November 7, 2025, but didn’t perform well at the box office, earning around $15 million. However, according to Variety, it was much more successful internationally, bringing in over $31 million worldwide, with $8 million of that coming from Italy alone. The film hasn’t been released in Germany and France yet, and those releases are expected to increase its overall earnings.
I recently watched a movie based on the incredible true story of Tony Kiritsis, who took someone hostage back in 1977. What surprised me most was how the director, Gus Van Sant, handled it. Even though it was a really serious situation, he managed to find a lot of humor and genuine heart in Tony’s story and the decisions he made.
The next installment of the Monarch series appears to be a shift in tone from recent Godzilla movies. Legendary’s films have increasingly focused on over-the-top action and humor – think robotic Godzillas, Kong with mechanical arms, and even Godzilla seemingly enjoying the chaos. This new series seems to be heading in a different direction.
Reports surfaced last September suggesting Machine Gun Kelly was hoping to reconcile with Megan Fox. However, sources also indicated they were simply taking things slowly, enjoying time together, and prioritizing their family. According to a new report in People, that might be all their relationship becomes – a focus on co-parenting and family. A source shared these details with the magazine.
David Fincher’s Zodiac features a stellar cast including Jake Gyllenhaal, Robert Downey Jr., Mark Ruffalo, Brian Cox, and John Carroll Lynch. Despite receiving high praise – it’s the second-highest-rated Fincher film on Rotten Tomatoes with a 90% score, only behind The Social Network – Zodiac was his least financially successful movie, earning only $85 million with a $69 million budget. However, this didn’t diminish its quality; the film is considered a masterpiece that skillfully blends multiple genres.
Ralph Fiennes doesn’t just deliver a strong performance; his role is essential to the film’s success. Writer Alex Garland often prioritizes ideas over character development, and while The Bone Temple is an improvement over 28 Years Later, it’s weighed down by heavy themes of nihilism that risk turning it into a bleak and unnecessarily violent experience. This tendency of Garland’s explains why the isolated Britain depicted in the films feels more like a thought experiment than a real place. It’s hard to imagine truly living in constant fear of turning into a monster, or of others doing the same, but the communities we see in both movies don’t quite capture that desperate reality. (Most of the characters seem strangely resilient, considering the circumstances.) Kelson, who sings Duran Duran while collecting bodies in the countryside, is the only character who convincingly portrays someone witnessing the end of the world, or at least its continuation. He has a strange calmness that initially seems like insanity, but closer inspection reveals a deep sadness for what humanity has become. Through him, the film becomes both funnier and more poignant as it explores themes of suffering.
James Cameron’s latest Avatar film launched to huge success on December 19th and has remained the top movie ever since. However, after nearly a month, the highly anticipated and critically acclaimed new installment in the dystopian horror series, directed by Nia Da Costa, is poised to become one of the decade’s biggest horror hits.
A variant cover for the upcoming Batman #6 suggests Tim Drake might be stepping down as Robin.
There’s a lot of anticipation for the new MCU movie, but also some worry about how well it will do. It’s been a while since the last Avengers film, and following the massive success of Avengers: Endgame is a tough act. A recent preview suggests how the MCU is trying to generate excitement for the story, but this approach isn’t without its potential downsides.
