Only Murders in the Building Season 2 Episode 8 As we reach the final three episodes of season two, Only Murders in the Building has to find a way to both close strong and prepare for the future of the program. This means continuing to flesh out peripheral characters who may factor into the third season, and closing out the arcs of other bit parts who probably won’t. Seeing who is part of the latter group will help us determine who killed Bunny Folger, and the eighth episode does a great job of juggling all of these folks....

We have only three episodes left in this season of Only Murders in the Building, and it feels like there are more suspects than ever before in the case of Bunny Folger. This show loves to throw a new twist at the audience every episode, which makes it hard to become couch-sleuths and solve the mystery before Oliver, Charles, and Mabel do. But that’s exactly what we’re going to do....

With the Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences picks in, we can see that David Fincher’s Mank is the technical favorite with below the line voters, pushing the Netflix deconstruction of Golden Age Hollywood to eight nominations. These include major nods for Picture, Director and Best Actor (Gary Oldman) and Best Supporting Actress (Amanda Seyfried), but also a lot of technical recognition too in Cinematography, Production Design, Costume, and Makeup and Hairstyling....

This week’s Outlander episode intensifies the oncoming storm of the Revolutionary War. Jamie realizes that this is the time to use Claire and Brianna’s future knowledge to join the growing colonial rebellion. Meanwhile, on the Ridge, there might be a domestic war brewing as Malva escalates her spying and creepy behavior to blackmail. This episode is the second directed by the first Black director for Outlander, Christiana Ebohon-Green, and it shows off her ability to helm both emotional development scenes and chaotic action....

Esme’s a dark horse. In ‘Sapphire’, John Shelby’s widow revealed a secret she’s been keeping from Tommy Shelby. In the time since Esme escaped the Peaky Blinders and set out to raise her children “among decent people” on the road, she met a woman named Zelda. In May 1914, Zelda had become pregnant after sleeping with a man under a hazel tree at the Appleby Horse Fair. By the time Zelda’s dad found out and issued the usual death threats, the man in question – a 24-year-old Tommy Shelby – had enlisted in the army and left for France, ignorant of the pregnancy....

On paper, it reads like a gonzo knockoff of Keanu Reeves’ John Wick movies in which a hitman also comes out of exile to avenge a murdered dog. This would likewise be in keeping with the current career trajectory which has taken Cage, an Oscar winning actor, into grindhouse detours like Mandy and Mom and Dad. However, the story that Sarnoski and his co-writer Vanessa Block wish to tell is something much more intimate, and ultimately affecting....

Shadow Complex Remastered and Hitman Go: Definitive Edition are arguably the best games on the exclusion list, but the general message worth conveying here is that you’ll likely be able to play your favorite PS4 game on the PS5 in the near future (assuming that you adhere to all of the console’s other backward compatibility requirements)....

To celebrate the release of Endgame, we’ve been revisiting the first 21 MCU chapters in our Marvel Movies Debrief series, looking back at the legacy, best bits and shared-universe connections of each film. And with our Captain Marvel recap, we’ve finally reached the end of our journey. So, just as we did with Phase One and Phase Two, we’re celebrating the end of Phase Three (so far) with another quiz....

The film, which made waves in January at this year’s Sundance Film Festival, appears to be steeped in the Gothic tradition of journeying into the unknown and an undead past. That at least is what it might seem like to Kay (Emily Mortimer), the adult child of the elderly Edna (Robyn Nevin). One day that mother vanished into the night, and it’s the disappearance of her mother that brings Kay and her own daughter Sam (Bella Heathcote) back to their family’s decaying country home in order to discover what happened....

Riverdale Season 3 Episode 10 “At 8:47 on a Wednesday morning, Archie Andrews died…at least the Archie we knew.” After last week’s episode — my least favorite of the series to date — I came into this installment with both hope and apprehension. It was fairly obvious that Archie would survive, but this being Riverdale, I must admit that I was pleasantly surprised that his resurrection and return home happened immediately as the episode opened....

“At this point, we really feel that there is not a mystery-verse built out anywhere, and Conan Doyle is the definitive voice in that arena, I think, to this day,” Downey said during a keynote panel at the Fast Company Innovation Festival on Monday (via Fast Company), referring to the already-existing Sherlock Holmes franchise he helped launch back in 2009. “So to me, why do a third movie if you’re not going to be able to spin off into some real gems of diversity and other times and elements?...

Shameless Season 8 Episode 3 Well that escalated quickly into something great, didn’t it? Normally, Shameless builds across the span of a season to the moment when Gallaghers’ lives (and storylines) intersect. Otherwise, they’re mostly all off in their own debauched worlds, completely oblivious to the fact that Debbie is “with” poor Neal, or that Lip is no longer bound to his great expectations in college. But only in episode three of the year, Fiona leads an entire flock of Gallaghers, still fresh with rotten pieces of Monica skin under their fingertips, to go eyeball-to-eyeball with a meth dealer living in a storage unit....

That’s why it’s a little surprising to learn that the movie’s antagonists will be the Daughters of Atlas, characters with no clear comic book antecedent. Who are these evil gods and how do they relate to established comic book characters? Hellen Mirren as Hespera As seen in the recently-released trailer, Helen Mirren plays Hespera, who leads the Daughters of Atlas against Shazam and his wizard mentor to retrieve the power they stole from the gods....

Significant Other is a very different film from From Dusk Till Dawn, but it’s one that will similarly surprise audiences. “When somebody asks us what the movie’s about, we just tell them it’s about a couple that goes camping in the woods, and something bad happens to them,” says Robert Olsen, who directed alongside Dan Berk. “It is one of those films where there’s just this pivot in it where you have two almost different types of movie....

Ask anybody what they truly fear more than anything else in the world, and one of the most honest replies you will receive is “Answering that question.” Fear is as intimate to humans as sex. It’s something that everyone feels, but most of us work very hard to disguise when in the presence of unfamiliar faces. Fear invades our minds, bodies, and souls when it strikes. To understand an individual’s fear is to have knowledge of the individual....

Skam Season 4, Episode 4 This week’s episode of Skam was the best yet, giving us plenty of Noora/Sana friend time, as well as Sana and Yousef the space to talk about their respective beliefs. Skam is one of the only shows in the American cultural sphere right now that has a Muslim protagonist at its center. Sana and Yousef’s discussion of their religious perspectives wasn’t just a sweet example of their burgeoning romance (though, it was that), but the kind of necessary discussion our popular culture needs to be having right now....

Check out the full December line-up below… Premieres Dolittle (2020) – 4th December Robert Downey Jr. followed up his long run as Marvel’s Iron Man with this family adventure film based on the kids books by Hugh Lofting. Despite a big supporting cast that includes Emma Thompson, Michael Sheen, Rami Malek and Tom Holland, it’s not brilliant. Any Downey Jr. completists will want to check it out regardless. Anya Taylor-Joy leads this new adaptation of Jane Austen’s novel playing Emma Woodhouse, a gal who spends so much time setting up the people she knows with ‘happily ever after’, she forgets about her own romantic possibilities....

“We’re also excited today to reveal that Marvel’s Spider-Man: Miles Morales will be arriving on both PS5 and PS4,” says James Stevenson, community director of Insomniac games, via a PlayStation blog post. “Yes, that’s right, we know that some of you may transition to PS5 at different times, which is was why it was important to us to release the latest title in the Marvel’s Spider-Man universe on both consoles....

As Star Trek: Discovery continues to boldly go where no 23rd Century crew has gone before, the tapestry of the rest of the Trek franchise continues to get slightly redefined. In Discovery Season 3, Episode 6, “Scavengers,” a rogue mission from Burnham literally puts her and Georgiou in a scrapyard that contains a ton of old Star Trek Easter eggs, even if we only glimpse a few. Along the way, the USS Discovery gets an interesting upgrade, and more details about the Mirror Universe are teased out for the first time in a while....
