Top 10 Movies of 2020: Perri's List from Hamilton to Birds of Prey

Movies have always been a big part of my life, but I don’t know what I would have done without my Collider.com family and storytelling in 2020. Yes, the industry is reeling and there’s a scary amount of uncertainty surrounding the future of film, but even in the face of all that and a raging pandemic, artists persevered and delivered work that wound up being the support I needed right now in a multitude of ways....

Why 'Pet Sematary: Bloodlines' Adds New Characters to the Stephen King Classic

We’ve been getting a steady stream ofStephen Kingadaptations on screen for decades now, and many of them are quite good, but the 2023 releases are highlighting one particular approach to bringing a King classic to life on screen that’s brimming with potential and could be worth mining further — identifying lightly explored corners of King’s worlds and fleshing them out. Early this year we gotRob Savage’sThe Boogeyman, which takes a King-penned short story, honors its source material, but then builds a whole world around that one conversation between Lester Billings and Dr....

Why Joker Could Be the Bright Future of DC Movies

Say what you will aboutJoker, but it’s certainly unlike anything Warner Bros. has made in its current iteration of the DC Universe.

X-Men: Apocalypse Filmmakers on Fixing Mistakes for Dark Phoenix

WhileX-Men: Apocalypsegrossed over $540 million at the worldwide box office, that was $200 million less than its predecessor,X-Men: Days of Future Past, and doingworsethan the previous film is never a good sign for sequels. Moreover, reviews were quite unkind for directorBryan Singer’s “disaster movie” version of anX-Menfilm. So when it came time to craft the nextX-Menmovie, the filmmakers needed to acknowledge the mistakes that were made inApocalypseand ensure they wouldn’t be repeated inX-Men: Dark Phoenix....
