Everyone needs a friend; it’s a universal trait that all (or at least most) human beings share. As a result, plenty of movies like to explore friendship in all its different configurations. It can transcend every form of identity and sprout from a variety of circumstances—the workplace, school, mutual friends, family, etc.—and watching people developing (or dealing with) friendships on the screen makes them more relatable to the audience.

A children’s book series warning its pint-sized readers to shut its pages, forget about its terrible contents and to find a more suitable book to read, is inspired reverse psychology designed to lure children into its complex center. But for a Netflix series – in the middle of #PeakTV no less – to do the same with its latest show is almost shockingly glib. After all, who would dare to wish away viewers?...

While live-action remakes have become an important cornerstone of Disney’s moviemaking business model,Aladdinposes a unique challenge and it’ll be interesting to see how audiences respond. 2017’sBeauty and the Beastwas the first time these live-action remakes tackled a Millennial-beloved Disney movie, and it succeeded to the tune of $1.2 billion worldwide.

Readers who have been following our coverage of all things Marvel will know that amongst my very favorite films that have been adapted from a Marvel property,Peyton Reed’sAnt-Manranks very high on the list, alongside weirdly insightful, tremendously entertaining works likeIron Man 3,Sam Raimi’sSpider-Man, andGuardians of the Galaxy. The reaction to Reed’s film has been mixed for the most part, but the film, which starsPaul Ruddas Scott Lang, who becomes the titular resizable hero, made quite a lot of money....

I lack the imagination to picture a world in which a nuclear missile decimating an American city and extinguishing tens of thousands of lives would be answered with attempts at witty humor and much folding of clothes. Even more unfathomable is that this behavior would be exhibited by the very people who were unable to stop the attack from happening. Surely there should be some guilt, some urgency, someemotionon the part of these otherwise well-meaning heroes, but no....
