Movie Reviews and Previews Pirates of the Caribbean: Not dead yet Yesterday Disney announced that Pirates of the Caribbean: Dead Men Tell No Tales is being kicked from summer 2016 to July 7, 2017.

Movie Reviews and Previews Colin Farrell is Irish in Miss Julie It has recently come to my attention that there are some people for whom “Irish”, the mention of, or indeed the claiming as heritage of, is unappealing. Something about being too rah-rah or that we’re the greatest or something. Oops. Did I slip? Yep. I’m one of the By Duana • Jul 23, 2014 01:49 pm
Maple Leaf Rachel & Mick Rachel McAdams was at the NY premiere of A Most Wanted Man last night. So that’s why she’s on the cover of ALLURE. I wasn’t sure. There was so little lead-up to this release. Anyway, at some point while she was at the event, she posed with By Lainey • Jul 23, 2014 12:56 pm

We’re discussing potential Star Wars Episode VII plot details, so if you don’t want to know, go no further.
