Oscars 2021 The Devil’s Own Oscar Presenters We were told that the actors presenting in the Oscar movie would be playing themselves, and as I wrote last week, this would require more of a lift than in years past when they’d show up and read from a prompter and open the envelope. We saw several presenters By Lainey • Apr 26, 2021 12:08 pm
Movie Reviews and Previews Harrison Ford in The Call of the Wild The Call of the Wild is another movie Disney inherited when they bought Fox, but this one they threw some effort into releasing.

Movie Reviews and Previews Solo: A Lando Calrissian Story We’ve all just resigned ourselves to Solo happening to us, right? Like a trip to the dentist—it’s just something we have to get through. A jaunty new trailer has been released to encourage us to take our Star Wars fan service with grace and good cheer, but By Sarah • Apr 09, 2018 12:06 pm
Movie Reviews and Previews Ryan Gosling and Harrison Ford in Blade Runner 2049 Blade Runner 2049 did not live up to expectations, opening with just $32 million (against a reported $150 million budget and a big marketing push). It got an A- minus Cinemascore, so the people who saw it liked it, but basically, no one saw it. Or, not enough people saw By Sarah • Oct 11, 2017 12:10 pm
Movie Reviews and Previews Blade Runner builds momentum Harrison Ford and Ryan Gosling, who’s recycling his sweaters on this press tour now, were in London recently, continuing to promote Blade Runner 2049.

Movie Reviews and Previews Harrison & Ryan begin the press tour What is Harrison Ford’s nickname? He probably doesn’t have one. It definitely isn’t his vibe. But if you had to say his name quickly, like if it was a sort of emergency, would he be pissed you called him Harry? Hare? I can’t imagine Ryan Gosling By Lainey • Sep 19, 2017 03:22 pm
Harrison Ford Intro for September 14, 2017 Dear Gossips, I read the new Harrison Ford GQ profile because of the headline about how he punched Ryan Gosling while shooting Blade Runner: 2049, a story Ryan already told GQ last year. By the end of the profile, the Ryan Gosling anecdote was the least interesting part of the By Lainey • Sep 14, 2017 09:00 am
Movie Reviews and Previews Blade Runner at war A new trailer for Blade Runner 2049 has just been released, and in case you’re wondering, yes this movie continues to look f*cking awesome.

Movie Reviews and Previews Blade Runner GORGEOUS Blade Runner 2049 has been teasing us with glimpses of its orange and neon visuals, and now we have the first full trailer and it’s mind-bogglingly gorgeous. It’s director Denis Villeneuve, of course, and also cinematographer Roger Deakins, who is one of the greatest living cinematographers. They previously By Sarah • May 09, 2017 10:13 am
Movie Reviews and Previews Blade Runner’s potential answer Blade Runner is one of the most influential sci-fi films of the last thirty years, building off the dirt-and-muck aesthetic of Star Wars and the headier, more philosophical engine of 2001: A Space Odyssey. So it’s only natural, in our current nostalgia-driven culture, that a beloved classic be revisited By Sarah • Dec 19, 2016 03:03 pm
Movie Reviews and Previews Indiana Jones is returning But without George Lucas this time. Does that make it better? It’s interesting that in the last decade Harrison Ford has revisited his two most beloved characters, Han Solo and Indiana Jones, and it turned out so wildly different. Everyone loved Han Solo in Star Wars: The Force Awakens, By Sarah • Mar 15, 2016 03:48 pm

Star Wars This used to be my boyfriend Oh come on. You didn’t have a crush on Luke Skywalker? Fine. I did. Bad. In a pre-puberty way, I think, but still, it was a crush. Look at him back then! He was what a crush was supposed to look like. And you were too young to be By Lainey • Dec 15, 2015 10:19 am
Assy Style Johnny Depp: the rocker, the Sparrow, and the Mouse Johnny Depp showed up at Disney’s D23 this weekend to promote Pirates 5. On Friday he wore regular clothes, and by regular clothes, I mean a shirt and a vest and some necklaces – but not too many – and a jacket on top and, to me, he’s starting to By Lainey • Aug 17, 2015 12:09 pm
Movie Reviews and Previews New New Star Wars takes Comic Con by storm(trooper) On Friday at Comic-Con, JJ Abrams took the stage along with LucasFilm chief Kathleen Kennedy and screenwriter Lawrence Kasdan and proceeded to blow the doors off the place.
