6 Tips for Rookie Filmmakers
1. Ignore the length. So often, when trying to write a script or produce a film, we focus so much on meeting a certain length to fulfill an expectation. However, you might be so focused on pumping out your first feature film that you end up sacrificing quality and making scenes painstakingly long. Perhaps too much exponential dialogue or sequences.

There has to be more than nostalgia
In December, I went and saw Spiderman: No Way Home and The Matrix Resurrections. Both were full of attempts to drum up fan nostalgia. One movie did it well. The other used it for a cash grab. Guess which one was which.

Movie Review: 'The Batman' is Another Fresh Take on the Famed D.C Crimefighter
Moody, atmospheric, and with a bloody red aesthetic, Matt Reeves’ The Batman doesn’t completely reinvent the Caped Crusader but it does give the legend a fresh coat of paint. Starring Robert Pattinson as a whole new, younger and more dynamic Batman/Bruce Wayne, The Batman focuses on creating a dense and engaging murder mystery plot in which The Riddler isn’t a comic figure but a desperate loner inspired to try and improve the cesspool that is Gotham City by any means necessary.

Movie Review: The Shallow Empowerment of 'Asking for It'
Asking for It had so much potential. The trailer promised a hardcore feminist revenge movie featuring strong and assertive female characters. The sad reality of Asking for It is that this is yet another in a growing sub-genre of shallow, pseudo-empowerment movies that mistake enacting violence and holding weapons for genuine empowerment. The feature film debut of writer-director, Eamon O’Rourke is a glib revenge fantasy that uses diversity and inclusivity as a marketing campaign more than anything else.

The Return of the Native Monster
Born out of war and the grim realities of the blame and ideas surrounding paying reparations, Weimar Germany produced some of the greatest horror films in cinematic history. Influential for their use of geometry, monstrosity and their cinema technique, they have been emulated for years after their production with some, such as F.W Murnau’s “Nosferatu” (1922) having been remade by later directors. But, when we look at horror film post-Alfred Hitchcock, we see the very symbols that made Weimar German Horror Films popular, come back into fashion. The reason for this is not just because the films themselves were influential but also because the context of the country that has produced the film is too, in a similar situation between a monarchal rock and governed by a hard place.

Spencer - My Thoughts 💭
“Spencer” is far better than I had originally thought it had any right to be. In-between feeling over-saturated by the cloying character of Diana in the last two seasons of “The Crown” and the Naomi Watts starred film “Diana” back in 2013, which was severely slaughtered and I thought not quite as bad as people seemed to make it out to be. I was getting a bit of Diana sequel fatigue. Then there is the fact that I am unequivocally not a fan of Kristen Stewart (who plays the title role) and I usually tend to avoid her at all costs! So why did I enjoy this film so much?

Titanic True Story: The Real Diamond Rose's Necklace Is Based On
Titanic presented two essential lead characters as well as an exceptionally extraordinary item that was the justification for a ton of contention in the film: the Heart of the Ocean, an enormous precious stone in a neckband, and here's the genuine motivation behind Rose's notorious accessory. Despite the fact that James Cameron's name is frequently connected with the science fiction type on account of motion pictures like The Terminator, Aliens, and Avatar, he has investigated different classifications also, and perhaps his greatest venture was really a catastrophe dramatization film: Titanic, delivered in 1997.

10 Memorable Times Where Actors Played Against Type (And Succeeded)
Many actors often find themselves associated with a particular type of character. For every tough guy, suave hero, femme fatale, damsel in distress, or hopeless romantic, there will always be a few names that come to mind to play them. There’s nothing wrong with that because the best actors always make their characters work regardless of how typecast they may seem.
