Movie Reviews and Previews New Wave Thor Entertainment Weekly has the first look at Thor: Ragnarok on its cover this week, and it is an Eighties-fantastic explosion of COLOR and LIGHT and HAIR.

TV Updates Late Night Boy Sh*t As we are so fond of saying around here, boy sh*t is the best sh*t and today we’ve been given a helping of late night talk show host boy sh*t. If you haven’t heard, The Late Show with Stephen Colbert has been steadily gaining ground By Sarah • Mar 08, 2017 11:58 am

Movie Reviews and Previews Zoey Deutch in Before I Fall Before I Fall is a Very Special Episode stretched to ninety minutes in which an insipid teen learns not to be a total asshole by reliving the same day over and over. If you’re saying, “Hey, that sounds like Groundhog Day,” then you are correct because this is basically By Sarah • Mar 07, 2017 10:01 am
TV Updates Jessica Lange and Susan Sarandon in Feud: Bette and Joan Unleashing his lingering ire toward Bette Davis, who was a crucial player in the fall of the Old Hollywood studio system, studio boss Jack Warner (Stanley Tucci) bellows, “That C*NT!” And later, ushering Bette Davis and Joan Crawford into her lavish Hollywood estate, Hedda Hopper (Judy Davis) grandly proclaims, By Sarah • Mar 06, 2017 12:16 pm
Movie Reviews and Previews Hugh Jackman in Logan Logan hauled in an estimated $85 million over the weekend, which is a great debut for Hugh Jackman’s last ride as Wolverine. The movie itself, though, is a somewhat less-than-great send-off for the first superhero superstar. In it we find Logan—no longer going by “Wolverine”—driving a limo By Sarah • Mar 06, 2017 08:48 am

Movie Reviews and Previews Meet Star-Lord’s dad A new trailer for Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 2 was released last night—Chris Pratt popped out of the audience at Jimmy Kimmel Live to promote it—and while it is mostly new material, it’s kind of amazing how much of this movie they’re NOT giving away.

Movie Reviews and Previews Will Smith’s rebound Suicide Squad won an Oscar on Sunday—2017 is the Year of Nonsense—but despite acquiring some award polish, that movie didn’t really work out the way anyone wanted. Sure, it made money on paper, but no one likes it and time isn’t going to revise that one By Sarah • Mar 01, 2017 09:01 am

Oscars 2017 Jeremy Renner was there, too In case you missed it, Jeremy Renner was at the Oscars, too. I was trying not to bug Lainey during the broadcast, so I did not tweet her photos of Renner all night, but I know that he is her VERY FAVORITE person to show up places. I do so By Sarah • Feb 27, 2017 07:27 am
Bad Style Felicity Jones is Sarah’s worst dressed No one asked me, but Felicity Jones is my worst dressed of the night. I was hating on her dumb dress all night, and in the cold dark of one AM, I can confidently say that I still hate it. It’s a stupid dress and I assume Felicity’s By Sarah • Feb 27, 2017 05:58 am
Oscars 2017 Viggo Mortensen wasn’t there to win Among the Best Actor nominees was the surprise inclusion of real-life Ghostbuster villain Viggo Mortensen, for Captain Fantastic. I didn’t care for the movie and if the Academy was going to use this nonsense year to pull out a little-seen performance from an offbeat movie, I wish they’d By Sarah • Feb 27, 2017 05:03 am
Movie Reviews and Previews Alien: Covenant working for our trust Following the first trailer in December, Alien: Covenant has now released a “prologue film” that’s nearly five minutes long and introduces the crew of the Covenant, particularly Katherine Waterston as Daniels.
