More than 20 years have passed since The Lord of the Rings ended its historic run in theaters, and a plethora of fantastic fantasy films have been released since. While The Lord of the Rings is often considered the best fantasy movie series of all time, several of these other excellent projects are deserving of

Less than two months ago, the public didn’t even know that a Nathan Fielder co-directed and starring documentary following controversial Theranos founder Elizabeth Holmes even existed. And here we are with A24 having cracked the code on Gen Z again with an awesome $15M opening, 2,000-plus sellouts and lines around the block for the 3-hour
More is obviously better when it comes to box office, but winning is a complicated game in Hollywood. It’s not always just about the big number reported every weekend. Sometimes it’s about the little numbers that lead up to and play into that big number, and for one movie this weekend, those little numbers are
It’s no secret the Pokémon Trading Card Game has a scalping problem. As recently as last month, the 30th Celebration set for the Pokémon TCG was being scalped and resold, and the demand for these cards has strained retailers, especially smaller shops. Because of the increasing problem with scalping, retailers and the Pokémon TCG itself
SATURDAY AM: Refresh for more and chart…It’s a healthy third weekend at the October box office even with a bellyflop in 20th Century Studio’s $60M Whalefall in the mix which is only swallowing a $7.5M opening. Paramount/Legendary/Capcom’s Street Fighter is doing what it’s suppose to do with a $31M start, largely pulling in an older
Spoilers for the new A24 movie, The Death of Robin Hood, are ahead! The Death of Robin Hood begins with Hugh Jackman’s titular character making it clear that Robin Hood does not protect the meek and “he was not a hero.” He maintains that the legends aren’t true throughout the movie too. Or at least
Walton Goggins is one of the stars of the adventure movie that tried to reboot a major franchise on the big screen, and it has now found a second life on streaming as one of the biggest movies in the world at the perfect time. Goggins’ career has heated up in recent years. That is
Zendaya is a wildly successful A-list actress, who has had a truly insane year. She starred in Euphoria Season 3 (which is streaming with a HBO Max subscription), and also had a whopping four feature films release in 2026. The Emmy-winning star previously said she’d be taking a break from acting after such a crazy
Warning! This post contains SPOILERS for VisionQuest episodes 1 & 2Marvel Studios’ brand-new VisionQuest series has already made a significant mark on the MCU in its first two episodes alone, bringing one of the franchise’s most memorable supervillains back into the spotlight while also concluding the trilogy that first began with 2021’s WandaVision. However, it’s
Here we go. The first two movies under the newly combined Paramount Warner Bros merger — Legendary’s Street Fighter via the Melrose lot and Clockwork’s limited 4K re-release of Ken Russell’s 1971 The Devils — hit theaters this weekend in what is a future of titles dated on top of each other, appealing to myriad
This past weekend, audiences were way more interested in going out to see Jessica Chastain’s creepy horror turn over Jeremy Strong as Mark Zuckerberg in The Social Reckoning. Other Mommy had a great box office debut, while The Social Reckoning stumbled. And as it turns out, the movies’ leads had a funny text exchange about
A Few Good Men and Other Desert Cities, starry new revivals on the Broadway stage, sold out their performances last week, with the latter production (starring Julia Louis-Dreyfus, Ed Harris, Allison Janney, Joe Keery and Lily Rabe) hitting the upper reaches of the box office chart with a gross in excess of $2 million. As

Neon’s Cannes Palme d’Or-winning drama Fjord starring Sebastian Stan and Renate Reinsve had a terrific $124,000 opening on four screens in New York and Los Angeles, as documentary NAZA marks a strong week 2 expansion.

Ever since the first trailer for Hexed came out, I’ve been excited about the movie’s punk rock witch protagonist Billie. But did you know that when Hexed was first announced, its main character was a teenage boy? When CinemaBlend visited Walt Disney Animation recently, we learned why the filmmakers made the significant change behind the
The return of Battlestar Galactica in the early-mid 2000s really did feel like a magical time for television, and its legacy has lived on far beyond its natural course. The move to a grittier tone was a masterstroke, and it offered something notably different from shows in the same genre, like Star Trek and others.
The China release of Sony/Constantin’s Resident Evil propelled the move not only to the top of the global weekend box office in its fourth frame with an overall $62.7M WW , but the pic also became Zach Cregger’s highest grossing movie ever (as we first told) with $320.2M. That beats the previous high of his
I’ve spent a decent chunk of my life watching and rewatching Anthony Michael Hall in John Hughes movies from the 1980s, like The Breakfast Club, Sixteen Candles, and Weird Science. I grew up with them, and I’ve never stopped being a fan of them, or quoting them. That’s why I was so surprised to learn
Pokémon HeartGold and SoulSilver remain some of the very best, if not the very best, Pokémon games of all time. Their stunning pixel art, expansive ambitions, and incredible roster of the titular creatures make them thoroughly engrossing experiences from start to finish. It is a shame, then, that these legendary titles are locked to the
FRIDAY PM: Mom is bringing home the bacon. Other Mommy is on track for a $27.5 million opening weekend on 3,365 screens to top the domestic box office. This despite some scathing reviews for the Universal Pictures release by Rob Savage from producer James Wan and Blumhouse Atomic Monster. Jessica Chastain stars in dual roles
Celebrity fashion goes through a lot of phases, but no matter what it’s men’s fashion that’s getting the short end of the stick. There are a few exceptions, of course, and I’ll shout out Glen Powell going full velvet and Colman Domingo on pretty much any carpet as another. There are only so many ways
Warning! This post contains SPOILERS for Lanterns season 1 James Gunn’s Man of Tomorrow is shaping up to be a major chapter in the DC Universe, and not just because it’s set to bring back David Corenswet’s Superman alongside Nicholas Hoult’s Lex Luthor in what will reportedly be an uneasy alliance against Brainiac, one of
Heavy hang the heads who wear the crowns, and that goes for Skydance Pictures Co-Chairs Dana Goldberg and Josh Greenstein, who’ll be tasked with getting under the hood and tuning up the incoming 2027-2029 Warner Bros theatrical slates. The first fire to put out: ensuring that Barbie 2 becomes a reality with its original franchise
After winning Best Actor at the Oscars last year and spending a lot of his time after that directing his remake of The Thomas Crown Affair, Michael B. Jordan is in some rarefied Hollywood air these days. The film, which will hit the 2027 movie schedule on March 5, has a big budget and big
There have been countless on-screen reimaginings of Sherlock Holmes over the decades, but few, if any, have been as endearing as Guy Ritchie and Robert Downey Jr.’s take on literature’s most famous sleuth. 2009’s Sherlock Holmes and 2011’s Sherlock Holmes: A Game of Shadows reinvented the detective as a scruffy, combative action hero without losing
Other Desert Cities, the starry Broadway revival of Jon Robin Baitz’s Tony Award-winning play featuring Julia Louis-Dreyfus, Ed Harris, Allison Janney, Joe Keery and Lily Rabe, grossed a smashing $1,879,441 in its first week of previews. All seven performances at the Hudson were sold out for the week ending October 4. The $1.8M gross puts
You know, for a time, I really wanted to watch Obsession, but I kept putting it off, and you’ll never guess the reason why: It’s because I was too scared to watch it. However, one of my students, who is TWELVE, saw the movie and she said to me, “I think you can handle it,
Silo author Hugh Howey gives a different Apple TV science-fiction series his full support.

Tom Cruise will not be jumping on any couches this weekend. This as the star of blockbusters Top Gun: Maverick and Mission: Impossible posts his lowest opening in 19 years, that being the reported $160 million net-priced Digger, which didn’t find an audience with an $8 million domestic debut, a $20M global start and a
It’s been well over a decade since Christian Bale last donned the cape and cowl to play Batman in Christopher Nolan’s Dark Knight Trilogy, but many still discuss his performance.
