Even though the ending of Game of Thrones divided fans, the show still has a huge following, particularly for its earlier seasons. Proof of this came when Clarke and Momoa recently met backstage at The Kelly Clarkson Show (available on Peacock) and shared a photo on Instagram – it quickly became very popular online! You can see the picture of the two actors below.
I’m really excited that Tin Soldier is becoming available on January 22nd! I first saw it in theaters last September, and it’s a gripping story about Nash Cavanaugh, a former soldier. He gets pulled back into a dangerous mission by Emmanuel Ashburn, a high-ranking military officer, to go undercover and investigate a really unsettling cult led by a persuasive figure known only as “The Bokushi.”
Rumors are swirling about a possible third movie in The Bad Guys series. A well-known source in Hollywood has indicated that Universal Pictures and DreamWorks Animation are currently working on The Bad Guys 3.
While recent promises made in a prominent New York Times interview are reassuring, their impact depends on how much you trust the person making them. The timing of this statement, just before Netflix releases its next earnings report on Tuesday, seems deliberate. Netflix’s stock price dropped after winning the initial bid for Warner Bros. Discovery, and some critics have openly worried that Netflix could harm movie theaters. This has been a major concern throughout the process, with supporters of the Paramount bid arguing that Netflix’s actions don’t match its words. They point out that limited award-season releases and special event screenings aren’t enough to prove Netflix’s commitment to theatrical releases. In fact, the CEO seems to believe that most people won’t travel far to see a movie, suggesting he may not fully understand how many Americans live. While he’s clearly an expert in streaming, his understanding of traditional moviegoing habits may be limited.
The editing of segments for late-night talk shows often goes unnoticed, but it’s a really important part of what makes them work. I especially admire the team at Jimmy Kimmel Live! – their editing is incredibly fast-paced. People tend to think of talk shows as just conversation, but they’re a performance too, a visually exciting show created by skilled crews working at lightning speed. I have a lot of respect for them.
In The Fall and Rise of Reggie Dinkins, Morgan plays a former football star trying to rebuild his life. After being kicked out of the NFL for gambling on games, Reggie asks filmmaker Arthur Tobin (played by Radcliffe) to document his journey, hoping it will help restore his reputation.
Even though Game of Thrones ended in 2019, the world of Westeros is still being explored. HBO has created prequel series, but these focus on the past. Many fans are still eager to see stories set after the final events – the Night King’s defeat and Bran becoming king – as that ending felt rushed and unresolved.
As a huge animation fan, I was really excited about Inside Job – it was created by Shion Takeuchi, who wrote for Gravity Falls, one of my all-time favorites! Plus, Gravity Falls creator Alex Hirsch and BoJack Horseman director Mike Hollingsworth were executive producers, so the talent behind it was amazing. That’s why I was so bummed when Netflix unexpectedly canceled it, completely scrapping any future seasons they had planned. It felt like a real loss for unique animated storytelling.
Indiana Jones and the Dial of Destiny came out during a tough year for major summer movies. Films like Warner Bros.’ The Flash, Disney’s The Little Mermaid, and Marvel’s The Marvels all disappointed at the box office. Despite positive audience scores (87% on Rotten Tomatoes), Indiana Jones only earned $393 million worldwide, which wasn’t enough considering its estimated $350 million production cost.
The dramatic confrontation turned out to be a distraction, with Steve’s romantic competitor, Jonathan, unexpectedly arriving to help just in time, setting up the group’s ultimate win. Everyone survived – a conclusion some critics found a bit too convenient, especially since the episode aired on New Year’s Eve. The story then jumps forward 18 months, showing the group reunited on a rooftop. Steve is the only one still living in Hawkins, where he’s become a popular baseball coach and sex education teacher, and dreams of having a large family. He seems like the kind of person who will be a permanent fixture in the town, and whose death will one day be front-page news in The Hawkins Post.
