There’s certainly no shortage of dubious calls when it comes to the Hollywood Foreign Press Association, that assemblage of foreign journalists who annually hand out the Golden Globe awards. The Tourist, the critically reviled 2010 dud starring Johnny Depp and Angelina Jolie, earned a Best Motion Picture (Comedy or Musical) nomination. Pia Zadora nabbed Best New Star honors for 1982’s Butterfly, the same movie that earned her Razzie Awards for Worst New Star and Worst Actress....

The great thing about dark comedies that they are movies that they are not meant to be seen on a regular basis. They’re both funny and tragic. There’s an air of uncomfortableness about the various situations that are on display. If Marvel movies are event films, dark comedies are the antithesis of that. They are remembered for various reasons and some do stand the test of time. This list is subjective but worthwhile to look at....

These days, TV lovers are lucky because there are shows from just about every genre. There are shows that are brand new and currently airing new episodes and even a lot of shows that have already ended, so we get to see the entire thing without having to wait for new episodes or wonder what happens next. Among these shows, the horror genre is one that has become really popular and has a wide variety of different shows that fall into this genre....

For a film series made exclusively out of a children’s building block, they really touch on some important points and deliver word-class humor at the same time. On top of all of this, a surprisingly jaw-dropping twist turns the film completely on its head towards the end. Despite the multitude of things that make this 90-minute advertisement into a brilliant film (with three sequels of varying qualities) there are certainly a few elements that don’t make a whole lot of sense....

Some of us ’90s babies may be biased in saying that the best animated Disney movies were the ones we grew up with. From Bambi to The Lion King to Pocahontas—these were our heroes and our most beloved soundtracks. While today’s Disney films like Frozen and Moana are fantastic and modern, they’re just not the same. However, maybe that’s for the better… While these 10 movies below may have been our favorites as kids, rewatching them as adults is rather eye-opening....

After premiering on Lifetime and then being added to Netflix’s vast streaming library, dramatic series You has become a total hit for TV fans. This series is based on a novel series by the same name and the first season, which premiered in fall of 2018, was based on the first book in the series while the second series was loosely adapted from the second novel, Hidden Bodies. Both seasons of the series follow a man named Joe and his obsessive infatuation with someone that he meets while at work....

When a person dies, it can be hard for their loved ones to let go. So to seek closure, they might consult a spirit medium who reputedly communicates with the dead. While there is skepticism about this practice, it has shamanic origins and was popularized in the nineteenth century. Today, spirit mediums remain popular, as reality shows like TLC’s Long Island Medium have brought them into the limelight. Centered around Theresa Caputo, who does readings for different people, she’s not the only spirit medium who has their own show....

For a lot of film fans, the ‘90s was one of the very best decades for films. After all, movies weren’t overly reliant on CGI then as they are now, and we had a kind of subtlety in films that isn’t seen today. However, you’d be wrong to think all films from this era were great. In fact, the last year of the century had a bunch of stinkers that almost everyone has forgotten about, but Rotten Tomatoes never forgets....

Iron Man is the superhero who launched the Marvel Cinematic Universe to greatness. Along the way, Iron Man became the most popular and successful hero of the entire new MCU world. He was charismatic, outgoing, funny, and heroic, and it wasn’t until Captain America: Civil War that he showed anything near to his comic book counterpart. Iron Man has been dead for three years now in the Marvel Cinematic Universe, but his legacy lives on....

Thor has undergone some massive changes in the Marvel Cinematic Universe in his own solo movie franchise. What started as a Shakespearian tragedy in his first movie turned into a critical disaster in his follow-up Thor: Dark World. Then, when Thor: Ragnarok came around, everything looked and felt different, with the movie a quick and fun ride. The changes in the Thor movies to the comics are also just as striking, as the heroes seem like very different people....

With ABC’s Once Upon a Time all wrapped up after the final season aired last year, it’s left a gap in the television networks much like Game of Thrones has. So while the next big thing is being cooked up, this leaves Once Upon a Time fans wanting more. Fortunately, there are many shows with similar premises out there that got started following Once Upon a Time’s success and even beforehand....

With Dark Crystal: Age of Resistance Netflix truly outdid itself. They created an expanded fantasy world that was both true to the original movie and its own unique creation. The larger world they made allowed them to create a larger narrative that was able to satisfy both fans of the 80s movie and neophytes with no previous exposure. Now that they’ve shown they can do it, we have a few suggestions for their next project(s)....

Lauded as one of the greatest movies ever made, Raiders of the Lost Ark introduced the movie-going world to one of its most timeless icons: Indiana Jones. Even though the dream team of Steven Spielberg and George Lucas, who had each directed a record-breaker for the highest grossing movie ever made at this point, were behind the production, they struggled to garner any interest from the major Hollywood studios. After a lot of convincing, they managed to get Paramount to fund the project....

Mickey, Minnie, and all their friends have gone on several holiday outings with twinkle and tinsel to spare....

Everyone knows Buffy the Vampire Slayer as the cult ’90s show about a group of teenagers fighting vampires, demons, and the forces of hormones. The show has been lauded by critics and fans alike for its mastery in correlating battles with monsters of the week to struggles of everyday teen life.

It had thrilling, edge-of-your-seat action sequences, zippy dialogue - known as “Buffy-Speak” - and enough sudsy relationships to fill an entire shelf at a romance bookstore....

Since then, The Peanuts have produced untold amounts of comic strips for the world to enjoy, while also being adapted into full-length films and multiple television specials, and one of those television specials is A Charlie Brown Thanksgiving. While the Macy’s Day Parade might be the most popular televised event on Thanksgiving, it isn’t without reason that Charlie Brown himself, along with Snoopy and Woodstock, frequently makes the list of popular characters walked through the New York City streets on turkey-day....
