2016 is a bad year for movies. Or rather, to be more specific, a bad year for movies that are not currently gripping pop culture in a rabid fever.

I’ve got mixed feelings about some of Laika’s previous animation movies (Coraline, ParaNorman, The Boxtrolls), but after seeing this new trailer – I am convinced that this one is going to …

A thumping, thrilling action movie masterpiece, it was the best reviewed movie of the year on RottenTomatoes for 2015 and as is shoe-in for several nods when the Oscar nominations get released tomorrow. But as with so many pieces of …
Take heed Fury Road fans. Director George Miller has seemingly cut ties with Mad Max, vowing never to direct another film in the franchise.
