Style Nicholas Hoult: Thirsting for the Villain I’ve already posted this week about Nicholas Hoult, now blonde, and how into him I am, blonde or not blonde, but the blonde is working. It’s working so well that… is he, the villain, eclipsing the hero? Nicholas, David Corenswet, and Rachel Brosnahan were at the Superman premiere By Lainey • Jul 04, 2025 01:59 pm
Movie Reviews and Previews Charlize Theron in The Old Guard 2 Five years after The Old Guard became a hit on Netflix, its sequel finally arrives, titled simply The Old Guard 2.

Movie Reviews and Previews Dumb humans in Jurassic World Rebirth Thirty-two years and now seven movies should be enough to finally say it: Jurassic Park does not support franchising. Every sequel to Steven Spielberg’s 1993 classic, Jurassic Park, is varying degrees of bad or dumb or bad AND dumb.

Quiveration A Blonde Villain I have always had a thing for Nicholas Hoult. Like when he and Jennifer Lawrence started dating, that made all the sense to me why she, Hollywood’s It Girl at the time, would have been attracted to him.

TV Updates Jon Bernthal: Best of The Bear I’m only four episodes into the new season of The Bear, which dropped last week, which means I can’t speak to how it plays overall and whether or not the show corrects from the stumbles of season three but after watching the opening scene of season four, what By Lainey • Jun 30, 2025 01:09 pm

Movie Reviews and Previews Brad Pitt in F1 F1 is Brad Pitt’s latest star vehicle and Joseph Kosinski’s follow-up to Top Gun: Maverick, a film that married technical wizardry with high emotional stakes, making for one of the most genuinely thrilling and effective blockbusters in recent memory.
