With all of this talk of multiverses and shared universes, whatever happened to other dimensions? Nobody ever talks about the Dreamrealm, the Chaosrealm, or Outworld anymore, ya know? Oh...you don't? Well, I'm talking, of course, about Mortal Kombat. I'm sure you're all eagerly awaiting that new live-action foray back into the titular deadly fighting tournament, but before that comes out, we're getting an animated feature with quite the cast.
There once was a man from across the pond. Him and his animals had a glorious bond. They would sit and converse, and for better or worse, now all of you can see.
Did you like my little ditty there? I made it up. You know what I thought was made up the first time I saw it? Dolittle, Robert Downey, Jr.'s first film in a post-snap universe. The trailer looked like a joke, a fast one pulled on me by Marcus Theaters before I saw that god damn Star War or that amazingly under-awarded Uncut Gems. But, nope, it's real, terrible CGI and awful cover of "It's a Wonderful World" and all! And ya know what? Most other people seem to agree with my takeaway, as Dolittle is gonna do very little, box office-wise.
The Legendary MacGruber. Former Navy SEAL, Army Ranger and Green Beret. Served six tours in Desert Storm, four in Bosnia, three each in Angola, Somalia, Mozambique, Nicaragua and Sierra Leone. Recipient of sixteen Purple Hearts, three Congressional Medals of Honor, seven Presidential Medals of Bravery and starting tight end for the University of Texas, El Paso. And now, despite having a box office bomb under his belt, he's been picked up for a brand-new TV show to continue his legacy.
I've said it before, and I'll say it again: I am in L-O-V-E love with Baby Yoda. I have seen approximately one episode of The Mandalorian but that is all I need, man. I am hooked, baybee. If I could snort a big line of Baby Yoda, I would. He's just so cute, drinking his tea, wearing his santa hat. Actually that was a meme I saw, but it was great. While we all know I've documented Disney's bungling of Babby Yodder merch, cool stuff is starting to come out now, including these dope-ass socks! Yeah, you heard me right: SOCKS!
I guess we won't be hearing any Klingon slurs, after all. Despite all the hustle and/or bustle that was made when Quentin "Hard R" Tarantino announced a while ago that he was actively working on bringing a Star Trek film to life, most of the hubbub has died down over the last year, as the storied director moved to focus on Once Upon a Time...in Hollywood before tackling the space epic. Now, it seems that he won't be sitting behind the camera, per the man himself.
The murderous Jigsaw often asks his victims if they want to play a game. It's a rhetorical question, though; they're gonna play regardless, and they're probably gonna lose. In fact, many fans of the Saw franchise have been playing a mind game for a while now, ever since it was announced that Chris Rock was writing, producing and starring in the ninth installment of the decade-spanning horror franchise. While audiences still have no idea about the final tone or what the plot will entail, Rock continues to drop hints about the movie.
Grind up some green herb and pack up that reloading tool, because before you know it, Jill Valentine is going to need a little help with her escape from Raccoon City in the Resident Evil 3 remake that's due out in a few months. However, even for longtime fans of the series, the game isn't going to be a 1:1 remake, even more so than the Resident Evil 2 remake was last year. You see, apparently, some of those dynamic choices that players got to make in the PS1 original won't be in the game.
Hard to believe it's almost been a year since Tony Stark bravely gave his fictional life to save the entirety of the fictional Marvel universe (or universes, per some Doctor) in Avengers: Endgame, eh? With one snap while wearing a snazzy glove, Iron Man restored what Thanos had disintegrated, but wound up charred and barbecued to death because of it. However, instead of a mere roasting, RDJ was almost split in half by the dang thing, and Weta Digital didn't hold back on the gruesomeness at first.
Man, 2010 was a banner year for cinema, eh? We had Toy Story 3 which made me cry like a baby as I myself went off to college. We had The Social Network showing us that those seeking world domination can indeed succeed and become billionaires. And we also had fan favorite Inception, the dream-within-a-dream-within-a-dream special effects powerhouse.
