Spider-Man MCU Villain Fancast!
The Marvel cinematic universe has already done a very good job casting Spider-Man villains. However, if the rumours about 3 more Spider-Man films played by Tom Holland are true, there are still many classic spidey villains that have still to be featured. These iconic characters require some amazing actors to portray them when they finally come to battle Tom Holland's Spider-Man.

Movie Review: 'Here After'
Here After is a rather smug and self-satisfied movie that takes some time to settle into. The film stars Andy Karl as Michael, a man recently killed in a car accident. That’s a shame but it gets worse for poor Michael in the afterlife. In the universe of Here After, people can only ascend to heaven in pairs. Thus, if one does not have a soulmate, they will be doomed to walk the Earth until they find a soulmate. If they never find a soulmate, they simply fade out of existence.

Movie Review: 'Willy's Wonderland'
Willy’s Wonderland piles absurdity on top of absurdity and in wonderfully, violently, crazy fashion. That this is a movie starring Nicolas Cage is something that should not surprise anyone. That Cage doesn’t utter a single line of dialogue, outside of an occasional grunt to signify effort, is surprising. Cage’s manic energy is often best employed when he’s wailing like a banshee or saying something strangely or hauntingly poignant. Without words in Willy’s Wonderland the famed personality somehow still shines through and is somehow as entertaining as ever.

Movie Review: 'Space Jam A New Legacy'
Space Jam A New Legacy is a branding partnership between Lebron James and Warner Media. The goal of Space Jam A New Legacy is to further the branding of both Lebron James and the Warner Media intellectual property known to many as Looney Tunes. That this branding partnership comes in the form of narrative media, known colloquially as a ‘movie’ is really just a means of conveyance.

Classic Movie Review: 'Space Jam'
Space Jam has become a part of popular culture nostalgia in recent years. I can’t call it a critical reappraisal as critics are more likely to walk intentionally into traffic than actually sit down to assess Space Jam in any critical fashion after 25 years of its release, but a reappraisal has occurred nevertheless. The generations that came after Generation X have come to embrace the cheesy nostalgia and soundtrack of Space Jam regardless of the actual quality of Space Jam.

Movie Review: 'Broken Diamonds'
Things in movies are more than just things. If a writer or director calls attention to a specific thing, that thing gains meaning from that attention beyond its mere function. In the case of the new mental health drama, Broken Diamonds starring Ben Platt and Lola Kirke, it’s a house that takes on a great deal more meaning than being merely a place where someone lives. The house in question belonged to the main characters’ father and the added layer of meaning deepens as the story unfolds.

Movie Review: 'How it Ends'
How it Ends is like an indie pop song, it appeals to some very specific sensibilities and will not be for all audiences. This end of the world comedy finds a nonplussed millennial mildly struggling with her identity and past as she makes plans for the destruction of the planet at the end of this day. What stands out about Eliza (Zoe Lister-Jones), beyond her existential crisis, is that she’s followed everywhere she goes by a projection of her younger self, Young Eliza (Cailee Spenny).
