Two years after 10 Cloverfield Lane and ten years after the original Cloverfield, The Cloverfield Paradox was released. This third film in the Cloververse got a surprise trailer during Super Bowl LII and was even available to stream on Netflix after the game. While fans had been dying for another Cloverfield installment, The Cloverfield Paradox got mostly negative reviews from fans and critics. The third film attempted to tie all of the Cloverfield films together by having astronauts accidentally rip a hole in time and space in an attempt to solve an energy crisis....

There are a few directors who are so renowned that moviegoers can’t get enough of their stuff. So, while many film projects come and go from their development slates, because their fans want to know when they can expect their next project, we get to hear about every project they’re involved with in the earliest stages of development. James Cameron, Guillermo del Toro, Quentin Tarantino, Steven Spielberg, and J.J. Abrams are among these directors....

[This is a review of the 13 Reasons Why premiere. There will be SPOILERS.] – In recent years, Netflix has been building up its library of original content by introducing critically acclaimed programs like House of Cards and Orange is the New Black, establishing their own corner of the Marvel Cinematic Universe with The Defenders shows, and continuing the legacies of previously cancelled series with Arrested Development, Gilmore Girls: A Year in the Life, and Fuller House....

The puzzle genre has adapted incredibly well to the Nintendo Switch as a platform. Perhaps because of its unique gameplay mechanics, industry-changing controller, or impressive capabilities, the console has become home to a wide range of puzzle games. Titles like Puyo Puyo Tetris 2 or Carto flip the genre on its head and provide whimsical family fun. The Nintendo Switch is still one of the most popular consoles in the world, and for good reason....

If you’re looking for your first job or simply want to switch to a new career, you surely noticed that only experienced employees seem to get hired. However, you can still dive into many professions without prior expertise, so don’t give up just yet. Read on to find out which jobs don’t require experience in Australia. What kinds of jobs don’t require experience? 1. Concreter Building concrete structures requires a lot of physical work....

All it takes is one movie to start a trend. That’s what happened with the English-language remake of Hideo Nakata’s 1998 film The Ring. Gore Verbinski’s 2002 localization was a major hit both critically and financially. And without that film, we would not have had the remake craze that swept through the 2000s. Horror was and still is the most commercially appealing genre to adapt. It’s no wonder Hollywood was exploring all that East Asian horror had to offer....

Before Alita: Battle Angel, the idea that any live-action anime film would be worth watching was a little ludicrous. For whatever reason, there were very few good live-action anime films. The number of ones worth watching could be counted maybe on one hand and many of them were made in Japan. Rurouni Kenshin, Death Note, Bleach, and Parasyte had some effective adaptations, while more obscure manga like Oldboy and Ichi the Killer were adapted into such amazing films that people often forget they were manga first....

Between network, cable, and streaming, it seems like TV is overflowing with superhero stories. Let’s be honest though, we’re not exactly drowning in Black superhero stories. With five shows in its arsenal, The CW’s Arrowverse has the most representation, but it’s still not huge. Marvel has showcased a few heroes over the years, but with a few exceptions, they’re always the third or fourth character in an ensemble. Despite these issues, we still have a very exciting roster of heroes from the present and future to applaud, so these are the 10 best Black superheroes on TV, ranked....

The Star Wars universe is a place full of smugglers, gamblers, bounty hunters, space-monks, and their broody evil counterparts. It’s safe to say that it can be a dangerous place with all those kinds of people around, but somehow, the films and the TV shows make them all look cool. Heck, sometimes even the morally evil ones all draped in black brandishing red glowy things look more interesting than the goodie-two-shoes types....

It’s hard to imagine a world in which the American version of The Office doesn’t exist. Sure, the original UK version elicited a lot of laughs, but there’s a reason that the U.S. comedy series lasted nearly a decade. Fans are still eager to revisit their favorite employees of Dunder Mifflin again and again, even though the show reached its end over six years ago. The Office started airing on NBC in 2005 as an adaptation of the BBC series....

The greatest revelation from the last Game of Thrones episode is that every American household learned that their television’s brightness settings had supposedly been too low this entire time. There are also many other things that this season has yet to reveal. There’s no denying the fact that Game of Thrones likes to take its time when delivering big narrative pay offs. The show has so much mythology and family drama that it’s sometimes difficult to keep up with all of the sub-plots....

Judd Apatow returns to filmmaking with his latest, The King of Staten Island. Starring, and co-written, by Pete Davidson the film is a semi-biographical adaptation of Davidson’s life; he plays Scott and 20-something man, still living at home and still adjusting to the death of his father. It’s the type of material that Apatow excels at. His characters (while also falling into ridiculous or embarrassing situations) often find themselves trying to joke their way through tragic or uncomfortable circumstances....

Oh look, life found a way and we now have our very own meme ecosystem on the internet for Jurassic Park. It can’t be helped; in the face of Michael Crichton’s mere literary greatness and Steven Spielberg’s film genius, were are but mere bacteria; but boy do we know how to form a culture, as all bacteria do. So, this is the end result of all the running, screaming, and clever girl casualties from the Jurassic Park franchise, memes....

Logan Lucky is one of the most underrated movies of the past few years. The film marked Steven Soderbergh’s retirement in a fantastic manner, proving that the director was going out with a bang rather than with a whimper. While Logan Lucky was a fantastic movie, it is also important to remember that the film was heavily inspired and influenced by the plethora of heist films that came before it, such as the Italian Job and Ocean’s 11....

Going into last month, it wasn’t difficult to guess that films like John Wick: Chapter 2 and The LEGO Batman Movie would build upon the successes of their predecessors. In fact, the latter is currently the year’s highest-grossing domestic release. However, that likely won’t be the case for long, considering the heavy hitters coming to a theater near you in March. With each passing year, the concept of a “summer movie season” is becoming more and more outdated, with studios putting out anticipated franchise installments and big-budget fare all year round....

Because your business’ ability to build a following and convert customers means answering questions backed up by data. For example, which social network deserves the bulk of your time and budget? What are your top-performing pieces of content? What’s the overall impact of your brand’s social presence on your business? On top of answering these questions, according to Sprout’s 2019 Social Index, 63% of marketers are expected to discuss social ROI with their bosses to justify their spending for campaigns....

Even though the Academy Awards are largely considered the most important award show in Hollywood, it doesn’t mean everyone always agrees on the eventual Oscar winners. Just go on social media during any awards season and you will see plenty of debates about the merits of particular films that won over films people thought were overrated. Academy Awards should be seen more as a guidepost for popular, prestigious films, but not necessarily a hard and fast rule declaring the best of the best....

During its run, Community was one of the most consistently funny shows on television. It featured an incredibly versatile and talented cast including Joel McHale, Alison Brie, Donald Glover, Ken Jeong, Danny Pudi, and more. Though it never picked up big ratings, Community managed to make it to six seasons but fans know we’re still waiting for the movie. There are a lot of shows, especially comedies, that don’t stand the test of time....
