Spoilers for Star Trek Discovery episode 5 lie ahead In one of the lighter moments in last week’s episode of Star Trek: Discovery, while working on a way to use Discovery’s spore drive without the tardigrade known as Ripper, Cadet Sylvia Tilly exclaimed, “You guys, this is so fucking cool!” Suddenly realizing she was on duty in a military workplace, she immediately apologized, and Lt. Paul Stamets reassured her, “It is fucking cool”....

Jordan star in this movie based on the true story of a newbie Harvard grad taking on a death sentence case for a man who can still prove his innocence. Harriet – 3rd October Waves – 4th October Waves tells the story of a suburban black family in South Florida and their journey to accept a deep loss....
You’re the first protagonist in Star Trek to not be a captain, how was that pitched to you? I had a pretty good understanding of that. What I knew about Michael Burnham being the first officer and not the captain was that they were pursuing different and unique paths for the story. Because we had always seen the captain, we had always seen every world of Star Trek from the eyes of the captain, so something that Bryan Fuller and Alex Kurtzman wanted to do was to define a new Star Trek with a new identity....
Some of Spidey’s financial mastery can be attributed to the many films that he has headlined (with Tobey Maguire first portraying the lead role, then Andrew Garfield, and now Tom Holland in the MCU). But the real secret to his success is all the merchandising. Spider-Man’s vibrant red, white, and blue color scheme and charming personality have made him a global market behemoth. How fitting then that the most new information about the upcoming Marvel film Spider-Man: No Way Home comes from retail leaks?...

Star Trek captains are like secret agents or base jumpers: they’re constantly trying to figure out how to not die while, at the same time, recognizing that the dangerous situation they’re in are partially their fault. In Star Trek: Discovery’s Season 4 premiere episode — “Kobayashi Maru” — Captain Michael Burnham is forced to relearn the most hardcore starship captain lesson in all of Trek: You can’t always win and you can’t always save everyone....
Just because Star Trek: Discovery now flies in the year 3189, centuries after any other Star Trek series or film, the writers still intentionally reference the vast canon of Trek. Part of this is because the DISCO writers are big Trek fans too, but it’s also about making sure everything connects. Recently, showrunner Michelle Paradise said Easter eggs and references are there to ground Discovery “within the larger Star Trek universe,” because they don’t “want to be on an island somewhere....
Star Trek: Discovery Season 4 Episode 3 Star Trek: Discovery tries to serve multiple masters in Season 4 episode “Choose to Live” and the end results are predictably muddled. Perhaps it was always going to be difficult to balance Michael’s mission to track down a rogue Qowat Milat who killed a Starfleet officer while stealing dilithium with Commander Stamets’s trip to Ni’var to collaborate with the Vulcan-run Science Institute. And that’s without throwing Book’s evolving grief, the attempt to move Gray’s consciousness to a synthetic body, and Tilly’s new self-improvement journey in there too....
After the audition process for the Next Generation character wrapped, Snipes would end up losing the part of Geordi to Roots actor LeVar Burton, which he has now admitted he was pretty disappointed about. “Not as disappointed as I was not getting the role in the first Coming To America, but that actually turned out pretty good,” Snipes recalled in a new interview with Collider in the midst of promoting the film’s sequel, Coming 2 America....
Boba is a great example of the kind of zeitgeist-grabbing myth-making that has made Lucasfilm such a successful movie studio over the last 50 years. As with other memorable Lucasfilm icons, including Indiana Jones, the studio put a lot of time into designing the bounty hunter. In fact, the creation of Boba Fett is emblematic of Lucasfilm’s signature approach to character building and the massive success of that process. Before 1980’s The Empire Strikes Back, there was already Boba Fett....
Star Wars: The Bad Batch Episode 4 The clones of the Bad Batch are low on food and fuel, but it’s a more exotic problem that meets them on the planet Pantora: a cool and competent bounty hunter. “Cornered,” an action-heavy episode directed by Saul Ruiz and written by Christian Taylor, brings more of the same to The Bad Batch. This might end up being a make-or-break episode for some folks; we’re really in the plot now, the threats and relationships established....
The Book of Boba Fett Episode 4 Let’s talk about Fennec Shand. She’s a competent bounty hunter with a cool outfit and few, if any, moral scruples. Introduced as a legendary sniper in The Mandalorian, she also tangled with child hero Omega in The Bad Batch. But we still don’t know much about her. Not even the basics, like her home planet or a scrap of history outside her job, come up during this week’s dull, exposition-heavy episode of The Book of Boba Fett....
“The Heiress” introduces several characters from other parts of the Star Wars saga to The Mandalorian, including two from The Clone Wars that will make fans jump in excitement. Din Djarin also meets another group of Mandalorians, one quite different to the tribe that raised him. There’s also a heist on an Imperial cruise that, as per usual, doesn’t go quite as planned. But at the other end of the mission is a clue as to where Mando and Baby Yoda have to go next on their quest to find those “ancient sorcerers” known as the Jedi....
According to the trailers released so far, the prime focus of the seven-episode series will be Boba and Fennec’s adventures on the dangerous desert planet and their quest to reunite Jabba’s captains under their banner. But could there be more to this bounty hunter’s book than meets the eye? Certainly, there are more than a few questions this series could answer about the whereabouts of the character since Return of the Jedi....
The collision of 2020’s events with five stories celebrating black British history feels fortuitous to the cast. “The timing of it is so trippy,” says actor Shaun Parkes, who plays Frank Crichlow in the first film in the series Mangrove, about London’s real-life Mangrove Nine protest and Old Bailey trial. Speaking at the BBC Small Axe press launch chaired by Akua Gyamfi, founder of The British Blacklist, Parkes continues, “We’re all learning what the timing of this is daily....
Supernatural Season 12 Episode 12 This episode was as artistic in style as it was dire in consequences. We also got to meet a new type of villain, the likes of which we’ll probably see again since there was a not-so-subtle hint about his siblings. But I’m getting ahead of myself. The title “Stuck in the Middle (with you)” refers to the Stealers Wheel folk-rock song that appears in the film Reservoir Dogs....
From the very start, the existence of Marvel’s Loki series has seemed more than a little suspect. Don’t get me wrong: If Tom Hiddleston wants to do a TV show, obviously you let him do a TV show, especially if it’s as one of the few genuinely complex and multi-faceted villains that the Marvel Cinematic Universe has managed to create over its decade-plus long march to power. But the decision to tell a story about this version of Loki – one that stole the Tesseract following the Battle of New York and disappeared from the primary MCU timeline before the bulk of his redemption arc could really kick into gear – has always felt kind of like a cheat....

Responsible for innumerable classic works, from Chinatown to Total Recall, and a pioneer in the integration of ethnic sounds and electronic samples with a full symphony orchestra, Goldsmith stakes a strong claim to being the greatest film composer who ever lived. Although he sadly passed away in 2004 his formidable legacy lives on, so here are his 30 greatest works that continue to inspire the soul and get the blood pumping....
THE FIRST RIDDLER STORY In the early pages of The Riddler: Year One, a pre-Riddler Edward Nashton is seen on the Gotham subway amusing himself with an app called Riddle King, which among other things, contains crossword puzzle exercises. The three visible clues are: “a water utensil,” “a public way,” and “a formal dinner.” Two of those clues are already filled in by Edward, with the solutions reading “basin” and “street” respectively....
