Confirmed! Ayesha Will Grapple With The Guardians Of The Galaxy Again In 'Vol. 3': But What Will She Be Up To?
Does the Marvel Cinematic Universe have a problem with its villains? The jury is still out on that well-worn debate, but everyone at least agrees that some Marvel villains should survive beyond one movie appearance. Yet, a certain God of Mischief aside, very few antagonists survive long enough to crossover from film to film. However, in an interview to IGN, James Gunn confirmed that a particular foe is set to evade the chopping block, and will return to harangue our favorite bunch of A-holes in Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 3...

'Guardians Of The Galaxy': Will Star-Lord’s Milano Spaceship Return To The Marvel Cinematic Universe?
Thrilling and entertaining audiences everywhere, Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 2 is undoubtedly a fine addition to the ever-growing Marvel Cinematic Universe. Love for the Guardians themselves has never been higher, even though their latest installment was perhaps the darkest Marvel movie yet, filled with the demises of some major characters. But will one of these deaths be reversed? Could we see an old and trusty friend of Peter Quill’s return to the likes of Avengers: Infinity War and the wider MCU?

Myths of the Past Resurrected in our Present
I have to say that when I was young, I was thrilled when the ancient stories that I read from Bullfinch's book on Greek Mythology came to life on the "Big Screen." I was also disappointed in the same instant, while I watched Clash of the Titans. One of the greatest heroic epics of the ancient realm altered to accommodate so many who didn't know the story. Maybe the masses couldn't believe in a young man falling for the damsel in distress unless she had a rival suitor? The jealous mother with the reigning Gods on Mount Olympus, who according to any Greek myth wasn't even a Goddess. Thetis was, is, and always shall be a Poseidon's "Queen of the Sea." Don't get me wrong, I loved Maggie Smith in that role and because of that movie I only see Sir Lawrence Olivia and Harry Hamlin as Zeus and his son Perseus.

Hit The Deckard: Dave Bautista Says 'Blade Runner: 2049' Is Better Than The Original
Ridley Scott’s sci-fi masterpiece Blade Runner asked the question, "Quite an experience to live in fear, isn't it?" But it doesn’t seem that wrestler-turned-actor Dave Bautista is too apprehensive right now.

Touching The Sky: The True Story Of Eddie The Eagle
We need more people like Michael "Eddie The Eagle" Edwards. And more movies like this one that tells the story of how he made it to the 1988 Winter Olympics as the first British ski jumper, becoming an overnight sensation.

Movie Review: 'Roman J. Israel Esq'
There is just something off about Roman J. Israel Esq. The pieces are all there for a good movie but something intangible is lacking. That is strange considering we are talking about a Denzel Washington movie that is part character piece and part legal thriller. These commercial and artistic elements should work well together, especially considering that Denzel Washington is one of our finest actors, but it just doesn’t come together as I am assuming it was intended.

A Meaningful Glance — 5 Short Moments in Movies When So Little Told Us So Much
In movies, a single look can say more than a thousand words... or than a tedious amount of plot exposition. Therefore, trying to explain everything, that is going on, in form of lenghty dialogues, monologues, narrations or even flashbacks might not always be the best way to approach a story. It can seriously bog the pacing of the movie down and make the audience feel that they are being treated like idiots. Often, a single glance is all that is needed to tell us something important about the story and the characters.

Is There Such a Thing as Too Much Creative Control for a Filmmaker?
Though some would argue otherwise, movies are a form of art. And what else is art than expression of one's vision brought to reality to offer enjoyment? Therefore, it's important that the vision is brought to reality uninterrupted, pure and raw. In the case of movies, the way the filmmaker imagines a movie, is the way it should be brought to reality.

Movie Stars Doing Their Own Stunts: Requirement or a Nice Bonus?
When watching a movie, we want to be as immersed in it as possible. That requires us to believe what we see on the screen. If one does not believe the action seen on screen, the viewer will not be fully immersed in a movie. Action must feel authentic. That, in turn, requires the stunts to be believable. And what can be more convincing than the actor or actress doing them personally.
