You'll float, too...

The first ‘It‘ became a surprise blockbuster in 2017. Does the continuation live up to the original?

Watch the final trailer for the fall’s most anticipated horror film!

The new X-Men movie is an improvement over the previous attempt to adapt “The Dark Phoenix Saga” — but only slightly.

Who kicks the bucket in the new X-Men movie?

‘Glass’ is the final straw.

I’m an old enough nerd to remember when the first X-Men movie came out in theaters. At that time, comic books were not the number one driver of all things in popular culture. Bryan Singer’s X-Men certainly featured all the comic’s beloved heroes and villains, but there did seem like there was a concerted effort to tamp down some of their comic-book-ness. Everyone dressed in black. There was no spandex. The story was grounded in weighty real-world themes like prejudice and vengeance. It was the X-Men you knew, but watered down just a bit. It was a rum and coke, not a shot of gin. X-Men: Apocalypse, in comparison, looks like a bottle of Beefeater.

James McAvoy took on the role of a young Charles Xavier in X-Men: First Class three years ago. He reprises the role in X-Men: Days of Future Past which slipped to the number two box office slot this weekend behind a huge opening for Disney's Maleficent.
