Movie Reviews and Previews Daniel Craig in No Time To Die Like the entire Daniel Craig era of Bond, No Time To Die, Craig’s final performance as James Bond, is a mixed bag. It’s a very silly movie wrapped in serious clothes, it wants to be another link in the Bond chain while also serving as Craig’s swan By Sarah • Oct 01, 2021 09:14 am
Gossip Genie Cary Fukunaga and a Gossip Genie Wish Sarah wrote about Cary Fukunaga’s feature in The Hollywood Reporter last Friday addressing his work on Bond: No Time To Die and some of the gossip related to his past projects, like True Detective.

Movie Reviews and Previews The Curse of Bond 25? Is Bond 25 cursed? First there was the director drama, then that spectacularly ill-timed live-launch event— these were the harbingers, the warnings that Bond 25 had run afoul of some ancient chthonian curse, it’s the part of the story where the old timer shows up to warn you to By Sarah • Jun 05, 2019 12:33 pm
TV Updates Maniac is a sideways examination of healing Describing Maniac is pointless. It’s a dozen different shows stuffed into one larger framework, and if it accomplishes nothing else, it at least makes me want to see a fantasy series starring Emma Stone as a half-elf ranger with a drinking problem. But Maniac does accomplish more than that— By Sarah • Sep 26, 2018 10:18 am
Movie Reviews and Previews Cary Fukunaga lands Bond 25 After Danny Boyle was and then wasn’t making the next Bond movie, the “who will direct” merry-go-round started up again.

TV Updates Superbad reunion Yesterday Netflix released a batch of first-look photos of their new series, Maniac, which is a “psychological black comedy” and not another remake of the slasher classic of the same name.

Hook Ups Emma & Dave, not Cary Here are some photos of Emma Stone in New York on the set of Ronald, formerly titled Maniac, with director Cary Fukunaga.
