Fantasy movie lovers are really looking forward to a new Narnia series, especially since Disney’s previous films stopped after just three movies.

The new series Star Trek: Starfleet Academy is getting positive reviews from critics, earning a score of 89% on Rotten Tomatoes based on 27 reviews.

“Dead Man’s Wire” centers around a bizarre incident and the 63-hour standoff that followed. The screenplay, by Austin Kolodney, skillfully mixes suspense, crime drama, and dark humor. It’s based on a wild true story that unfolded live on television, and the filmmakers approach it in a similar style to the classic film “Dog Day Afternoon.” While the director and writer take liberties with the facts to connect it to modern issues, the result unfortunately doesn’t quite live up to the potential of the original story.
In a viral video, lip readers determined Leonardo DiCaprio was saying “K-pop,” leading to speculation he was referencing the award-winning show KPop Demon Hunters. Taylor Swift explained she clarified with DiCaprio that he wasn’t speaking to her about it. She mentioned her co-star, Chase Infiniti, had already explained K-pop to her, so she knew what it was.

Compared to 28 Years Later, The Bone Temple feels more straightforward – director DaCosta wisely avoids repeating the original’s fast-paced editing and unusual visual style. However, it delves deeper into the characters’ minds. The previous film ended with a strange scene involving a group of eccentric zombie killers led by someone named Jimmy. The Bone Temple explores the origins of this group and the disturbing cult surrounding their leader, Jimmy Crystal (Jack O’Connell). Crystal’s appearance and persona seem to be based on Jimmy Savile, a famous British DJ whose horrific crimes were revealed after his death. The film imagines a world where Savile would have remained a popular figure, and his image is now exploited by the villain, who we briefly saw as a troubled child in the first film, growing up amidst both religion and pop culture like the Teletubbies. These early influences have warped together in his mind, creating the monstrous figure he is today.
I sometimes watch a movie and can’t help but think it would have been so much better if it had been made as a different type of film. Like, a dark comedy that feels like it’s almost horror, or maybe a live-action musical that just doesn’t work – honestly, it would’ve been amazing as an animated movie! I know animation isn’t a genre exactly, but give me a break – it’s just my opinion!
Some viewers are interpreting the jokes as a sign of disrespect towards SNL, while others – particularly those who have followed Kill Tony for a long time – are defending them as simply part of his comedic approach. One quote that’s been widely shared online illustrates this…
