Did you dislike Indiana Jones and the Kingdom of the Crystal Skull? Were you hoping the whole thing was just a bad fever dream brought on by too much Shia LaBeouf internet videos? Well, unfortunately I’ve got some bad news for you: Not only was Kingdom of the Crystal Skull real, it was actually fairly successful commercially and even received quite well critically …
Some directors are in hot demand right now and it would seem that Selma director, Ava DuVernay is one of those.

That’s because there will only ever be one Indy: Harrison Ford. At …
Since its initial release last month, director Colin Treverrow’s Jurassic World has been defying every expectation as it broke one box office record after another. And now the fourth movie in the Jurassic Park franchise has claimed its biggest accolade yet, as this past week’s haul brought its global tally up to $1,522 billion, which is enough to claim the …

Most of the time they are done with the intention of making a whack load of cash, and sometimes that works nicely. Just look at the new Mad Max: Fury Road. Then of course you get the sequels that can …
A good loot box never feels like a coupon. It feels like a moment. …
