As always, be respectful of fellow fans and avoid spoilers in the comments). Our new episode ofPreacherbegins with quite the strange scene, with scantily clad women running from a group of armed men. As I had mentioned in previous recaps,Preachercould make for one heck of a horror movie if it went in that direction....

With movie theaters still trying to find a way to safely open and most blockbusters getting shuffled to 2021——barring a new mutant or two—Netflix has established itself as this summer’s spot for A-lister-led action. This is absolutely a monkey’s paw scenario. Even stuck in quarantine, we’re still getting movies whereChris Hemsworthdismantles a child gang,Charlize Theronperformsseveral battle axe murders, andJamie Foxtakes superpower pills. That’s great! But unfortunately, these Netflix movies are also…Netflix movies, meaning they’ll all be the same algorithm-approved kind of slick-looking, faux-philosophizing, andjustclose enough to the brink of interesting to hold your attention for exactly two hours....

The original Force is awakening once again, as Disney has just announced plans to re-releaseStar Warsin theatersfor the 50th anniversary ofEpisode IV: A New Hope. Now, part of us hopes this means that the original cut that was showcased a while back in London is beingremastered and released, without any of the… unnecessary additions to it. But regardless, any time we see the original films on the big screen is a cause to be celebrated....

TNT has been showing promos forThe Alienistfor months now, and we posted thefirst trailerback in May. Since then, I keep getting asked (and keep wondering myself) when the show actually premieres. TNT has been cagey about it, but now we finally have a date: Monday, January 22nd at 9 p.m. There are a lot of reasons why you should care aboutThe Alienist. First of all, it’s a crime series that take place in the late 1800s, so I’m already sold....

The true crime documentary is a magnetic affair for many of us, particularly when murder is involved. We, the upstanding public, are utterly fascinated by people who kill—those unspeakable monsters we shun, yet devote hours of our free time indulging in their heinous work. What each of us finds so enrapturing about the horrific things one human does to another may vary from person to person, but perhaps the thing we all have in common as viewers—not participants—of these things, is that we recognize them as other....

For me, NBC’sThe Good Place, from creator/executive producerMichael Schur(Parks and Recreation), has been the most original and entertaining delight of the Fall 2016 TV season. The brilliantly inventive and hilariously funny series follows Eleanor Shellstrop (Kristen Bell), an ordinary woman who enters the afterlife and, thanks to an inexplicable error, is sent to the Good Place instead of the Bad Place, where she actually belongs. While trying to hide her true self from the completely unaware Michael (Ted Danson), the wise and kind architect of the Good Place, she’s determined to discover whether she has a good person within....

Criston Cole (Fabien Frankle)gets more than his fair share of screen time inHouse of the Dragon, but now fans can take him home and put him on a shelf. The Commander of the Kingsguard – and new Hand of the King – has a Funko Pop of his very own, as posted byWesterosieson X (formerly Twitter). Luckily for fans, the figure does not have the atrocious haircut that Cole insisted on gettingin Episode 3 of the second season....

When you think of the classic masters of horror, most of the names that come to mind areJohn Carpenter,Wes Craven, andGeorge A. Romero, but an important one that doesn’t get near the amount of credit that he deserves isSteve Miner. Certain people look for scares and tension in this genre, while others seek outshock and gore, but with filmmakers like Miner, comfort and an eerie atmosphere is the key. With a pretty stacked resume of franchise and solo outings to his name, Miner’s name is absolutely one of the most underrated in the game....

Even though we sometimes feel like some of the biggest names in Hollywood could get anything they wanted, reality is not quite that simple. During an interview withVarietyto promoteBeetlejuice Beetlejuice, world-renowned filmmakerTim Burtonrevealed that he’s had his share of ups and downs with big studios, and one of his lowest moments happened after he directed one ofDisney’s biggest titles. During the interview, Burton commented that the experience of adaptingDumbotolive-action was not the best one, and it almost pushed him to end his directing career....

There are rumors circulating that Apple is preparing to introduce significant RAM upgrades in the upcoming M4 MacBook Pro lineup. After years of downplaying how important RAM (and the amount of it) have been to their devices, it seems like Apple may finally be turning the corner on that front. With speculations of increased base configurations and the potential for even higher options, these new Macbooks could be a dream come true for power users and creatives who require more memory for their demanding tasks....
