If you're a diehard, lifelong fan of Star Wars and you got handed the directing job to one of the most important movies in the whole saga, you'd probably find it difficult to resist giving yourself a little cameo. Right?
Grabbing the most attention is Quentin Tarantino's Once Upon A Time In Hollywood, which apparently revolves around the neighbours to the house in which the notorious Manson murders took place. Following shortly on that film's heels will be the biopic Charlie Says, to be directed by American Psycho's Mary Harron. And now, on top of all that, it's just been announced that we're to get Manson's Bloodline as well, a documentary about his life and death.
3D was a fad that's on the way out. There were a couple of films (Gravity, Life of Pi, Coraline, Cave of Forgotten Dreams and, of course, Avatar) for which it seemed absolutely crucial, but for the most part, it adds nothing to a movie other than the annoyance of having to wear silly plastic glasses.
This week's Fantastic Beasts: The Crimes Of Grindelwald trailer was great, teasing fans with their first proper look at Jude Law as Albus Dumbledore as well as a long overdue return to the twisting towers of Hogwarts. But eagle-eyed viewers have noticed some interesting details in the preview that the production team might not have intended to leave in.
So you like Marvel movies now do you? Well, AMC wonders whether you might like to watch 31 hours of them in a row, culminating in Avengers: Infinity War.
There are few films in cinematic history as safe a bet as Avengers: Infinity War. It's the (beginning of the) conclusion to a decade of plotlines spanning 18 movies, all of which have cleaned up at the box office and most of which have received critical acclaim. In just over a month's time, it's going to rocket into cinemas and presumably break a whole ton of records in the process. And you know what? It's already started.
Marvel Studios has finally released the official poster for Avengers: Infinity War and Tony Stark is in an extremely evocative pose. Is this a hint that he's sacrificing himself?
