On April 19th, at precisely 1030pm, I will experience a full-blown LaKeith Stanfield crisis.

Movie Reviews and Previews Lupita’s scary eyes I am probably going to see Jordan Peele’s Us this weekend. Not happy about this. Us is getting strong reviews. Get Out was not a fluke.

Movie Reviews and Previews Us is already building Oscar buzz I really think there needs to be a three-month moratorium on Oscar talk following the Academy Awards, but life is inherently unfair so here we are, just a few weeks after the Oscars, already talking about next year’s Oscars.
