From one big American pastime to another, we go from Superbowl to Independence Day as yesterday’s mammoth sporting event gave us a brand new look at Independence Day: Resurgence thanks to a new TV spot. And this new preview doubles down on both the US flag-waving patriotism and returning franchise director Roland Emmerich’s patented wide-screen big budget destruction porn and …
It’s only one more week until Deadpool guys! Here’s what’s going to tide you over in the meantime. Spotlight SPOTLIGHT tells the riveting true story of the Pulitzer Prize-winning Boston Globe investigation that would rock the city and cause a crisis in one of the world’s oldest and most trusted institutions.

It’s taken nearly 20 years, but the Independence Day sequel is nearly here (my procrastination skills ain’t got nothing on those aliens!). In the early hours of this morning, 20th Century Fox gathered director Roland Emmerich and his primary cast – which includes Jessie Usher, Liam Hemsworth, Jeff Goldblum, Bill Pullman, Judd Hirsch, Vivica A. Fox, Brent Spiner, Angelbaby, Maika Monroe, and …
