The Freddie Mercury biopic has had possibly the hardest time coming to the big screen in history. First there were the fights with Queen over securing the rights. Then Sacha Baron Cohen entered talks to join the film in the lead role (a stroke of...
You know, we really take Spike Lee for granted. While he does misstep from time to time, and he hasn’t made a truly great film in a few years, his films are always fascinating and revolutionary, from Malcolm X to 25th Hour to Inside Man to the...
Happy Mother’s Day to all the moms out there! I hope you enjoyed a great week of pop culture, even if Hollywood is still in a post-Avengers wave and still settling into a groove of things. As mentioned, I didn’t see any new films this week, but I...
It’s been an insane week for television fans, as the networks have made some of the most insane choices I have ever seen, with cancellations and renewals cast about at record speed with seemingly zero thought put into them. By now you’ve probably...

Avengers: Infinity War is the culmination of ten years and twenty movies. It is the product of several years of planning, three brain children (four if you count a pair of brothers), and massive amounts of hype. In fact, as this arc has been...
