Christopher Nolan Is a Genius, But He’s Absolutely Terrible at This

Christopher Nolanis an ideas man. Some may critique the director forfavoring certain themes, but it’s rare for a creative to not revisit what resonates with them. In Nolan’s case, no one else utilizes blockbuster budgets to amplify artistic sensibilities more traditionally synonymous with indie filmmakers. Nolan’s concepts are wildly ambitious and psychologically compelling, a fact proven by how his name invokes an automatic “butts in seats” reaction among the general public and cinephiles alike....

FLCL Season 2 Trailer Teases New Episodes on Adult Swim

Hold onto your hormones, there are all-new episodes ofFLCLon the way and I don’t think the world is ready for them. Back in 2000, the six-episode first (and only) season ofFLCLintroduced audiences to a guitar-swinging heroine battling against a massively powerful industrial corporation and the 12-year-old boy caught in the middle.

Goosebumps 2 in the Works at Sony with Rob Letterman

Rob Letterman’sGoosebumpswas one of those films I probably would have absolutely loved as a kid. Not only did I get to see an age-appropriate adaptation of the bestselling series of horror novels byR.L Stine, I also got a truly spooky story with heart and laughter. Our ownMatt Goldbergcalled it an “absolute delight”, and I’d probably put it on the same shelf of scary cinema as the live-actionCasperfilm and Disney’sHocus Pocus. Even though it didn’t blow up the box office last fall, the performance was solid enough in theaters and on home video that the studio is looking ahead towards a second installment just the same....
