The opening of John Lee Hancock’s The Little Things is pure adrenaline. A young woman minding her own business and rightfully bopping to the B-52’s “Roam”—and also making a nice homage to Buffalo Bill’s final victim in The Silence of the Lambs—is targeted by a mysterious driver who tries to run her off the road. Once cornered at a nearby gas station, the would-be victim is only able to escape by the skin of her teeth....

During the Lucasfilm Studio Showcase panel, Favreau said he wanted to assemble the Mando exhibit as a thank you to fans who supported the show. It was also a way to celebrate the return of SWC after years of delays due to the Covid-19 pandemic. It had been a long time since Star Wars fans and talent could celebrate the galaxy far, far away together. The exhibition was only available to those inside the convention center during SWC weekend, but even if you weren’t able to be there in May, Den of Geek has assembled a video giving you an inside look at what was on display to bring you as close to the action as possible: Indeed, The Mandalorian Experience by Fairview Portals felt special....

The reason for the Williams Bros.’ switch to a spin-off was built into the original show’s premise. Seasons one and two of The Missing focused on failures in the long career of Det. Baptiste (Tchéky Karyo). The first was the disappearance of five-year-old Oliver Hughes, an English boy holidaying with his parents in a French town. The second was the disappearance of eleven-year-old Sophie Giroux, a French girl who disappeared in Germany....

The highly-anticipated decision centering on who will ultimately portray MGM’s seventh officially canonical big screen James Bond—and all the controversy that comes with it—won’t even be considered until 2022. That notion has come straight from the proverbial horse’s mouth, in this case Eon Productions, via producer half-siblings Barbara Broccoli and Michael G. Wilson, while speaking on BBC Radio 4’s Today (via Deadline) regarding the elephant in the room. Obviously, making said decision—potentially the biggest watershed turn of the franchise’s nearly-sixty-year history—this early in the process is ill-advised as No Time to Die rounds its October wide release....

Ben had trouble feeding from a bottle and became ill with a fever and suspected meningitis. Agatha refused to seek medical attention for him, fearing that his true identity would be discovered if she took him to hospital. Eventually, her boyfriend Hayden and his mother forced her to take ‘Rory’ to the surgery, but when the doctor insisted on admitting him to hospital, Agatha ran away with him, throwing away her mobile phone so that she couldn’t be traced....

So some might say 40 years on, there’s little left to unearth beneath the Overlook’s snow. Yet we beg to differ. In times such as these, where your dear writer has spent more than two months in self-quarantine due to a pandemic, I’d argue there’s a wealth of information we’ve yet to learn from dear old Jack and his endless winter in the Colorado Rockies. Because as you probably realize by now, we’re all caretakers of the Overlook these days....

Netflix got in one more grim K-drama before Christmas: moon mystery The Silent Sea. Because nothing says Christmas like a spooky, abandoned lunar base! The drama stars Bae Doona (Cloud Atlas, Kingdom) as Dr. Song, an astrobiologist-turned-ethologist who agrees to go on a mission to the lunar base where her sister died in order to retrieve a mysterious “sample.” The story is set in a probably-too-near future in which climate change has rapidly reduced the Earth’s water supply, leaving the surviving population to fight for the unevenly distributed resource....

The subject came up when Copeland spoke with Den of Geek last year about Under the Volcano. Gracie Otto’s documentary is about Beatles producer George Martin’s Air Studios Montserrat, where Synchronicity sessions ultimately troubled the Police’s future. Copeland calls “Trouble Again,” the song he wrote and recorded with Derek Holt for Star Wars: Droids, “extremely obscure,” and says he was “not even aware that that was released anywhere.” It’s true, the opening credit sequence for the 1985 cartoon, which itself feels like a relic of the past, features only a minute of Copeland’s song, which has become a cult favorite among both Star Wars and obscure rock music fans....

When we sat down to speak with Gunn last month, we brought up the character and just why the filmmaker felt so endeared to this creature that he wanted to see Starro go head to head with his version of the Suicide Squad. “Starro is hilarious because he’s ridiculous,” Gunn explains. “He’s a giant, cerulean blue starfish, but he’s also fucking terrifying. When I was a kid, I thought that was the scariest thing of all time and also recognize that it was somewhat ridiculous....

But as enjoyable as every season of irrepressible Gallagher behavior can be, there’s little denying that each year features something so Shameless that it dwarfs the rest of the bad behavior that came before it. These are moments that are so crass in their unapologetic depravity that they transcend being more broken furniture on the South Side, and instead become a true work of Gallagher (or Milkovich) art. There are quite a few of these Gallagher-ups, but we’ve boiled it down to the 15 essentials ahead of the final season....

The Walking Dead: World Beyond Episode 8 The implications of Silas killing his father have followed the character around during his journey on The Walking Dead: World Beyond. Throughout his arc in the first season, that hint of violence, potential or actualized, has been the thing Hal Cumpston has projected most strongly. Not threatening, per se—Silas has never looked like a direct threat to anyone, shrinking back rather than using his size to menace—but fear....

The Witch is uncannily accurate – right down to the version of English that the characters speak – and unrelentingly disturbing. The story taps into ancient – and even modern – fears about nature, possession and black magic, coupled with the power of religious persuasion and sexual repression. It’s thoroughly eerie and atmospheric, and an incredibly confident debut from Eggers. We sat down with the young director and Anya Taylor-Joy – who is also quite amazing in the film – to discuss bringing this dark, dark fable to the screen....

In our current moment when fan culture constantly obsesses over what’s next—what year will we get that fabled reboot of the X-Men in the Marvel Cinematic Universe, and what will the cast look like?—high-water marks from the past tend to go forgotten. This is particularly apt for X-Men: First Class since the new era of fun go-go mutant movies that film promised ultimately went on to crash and burn with the bad and worse one-two punch of X-Men: Apocalypse (2016) and Dark Phoenix (2019)....

If you didn’t know that there was an NES game based on Predator, then take comfort in the fact that you belong in the ranks of the happy many. There are dozens (if not hundreds) of NES games that are still being discussed all these years later for one reason or another, and Predator generally isn’t one of them. It’s a game that most are all too happy to forget about if they even knew about it in the first place....

In olden times, comets were seen as portents of death and disaster, so goodness knows what they’d have thought of something like the Rosetta mission of a few years back: the ambitious attempt to put a landing craft on the jagged bulk of a comet called Churyumov-Gerasimenko. Our ancestors probably would have thought we were completely mad. Or in league with the devil for creating such advanced machinery in the first place....

To keep your favorite devices free from malware and other cyber attacks, you must consider adding an extra layer of protection. A firewall is different than antivirus, and it provides comprehensive security protection against online threats. Not only that, but some of the firewalls also got privacy protection. For Computer Devices… BullGuard An advanced security firewall that is affordable yet impressive, BullGuard has been in the business since 2001. This solution works for Windows, Mac, and as well as Android devices....

Project management is the secret sauce that finishes projects successfully and allows companies to become great. No, this is not clickbait — I’ve seen two software companies up close (I was employed there) get destroyed within 1-2 years because of poor project management. A few others saw their product launches delayed by several months. While I’ll agree that like most other disciplines out there, project management sees plenty of snake oil and charlatans, it doesn’t diminish its importance and impact....

Sometimes they serve to hide the killer’s identity while other times they conceal a disfigured face, and other times, well, probably the production team just thought it’d look cool. Usually the idea is that it’s what lurks underneath the mask that’s scary, but a good horror movie mask is frightening in its own right. Here then are 20 of the scariest masks ever to turn up in horror movies:...

It’s worth bearing in mind, first of all, that the Transformers TV series, which had been running for two years by that point, had never killed off any of its characters – even though they often engaged in protracted brawls and laser battles. In Transformers: The Movie, a number of much-loved characters were not only shot and killed, but occasionally died in surprisingly graphic fashion. On a personal note, I still recall seeing the film at the age of about nine, and being slightly stunned at the sight of Prowl – he was the one who could transform into a police car – being shot in the chest, causing a gout of fire and smoke to issue from his eyes and mouth....

Triggered emails are becoming increasingly popular due to better conversion rates. According to the Blueshift Labs report from 2020 on trigger-based marketing, triggered emails are 497% more efficient than batch emails. If you have been experimenting with various digital marketing strategies and not experiencing the expected conversion rate, it is time to try the trigger marketing way. Please read the article until the end, as its content will help you get started....
