Early on in Swiss Army Man-during the opening credits, in fact-the film forces you to make a choice. As Paul Dano rides the waves on Daniel Radcliffe’s magic corpse like a jet ski powered by farts, you have to decide if you are going to like this...
I’m more of a Negative Nelly when it comes to comedies. I wasn’t entertained by Get Him To The Greek or Superbad the way many people were in my generation, and I’m not sure Judd Apatow is capable of making a good comedy (he understands that...
We have several new movies coming together, each more interesting than the last. All I can say is it must feel good to be the agents for Jacob Tremblay, Julia Roberts, Owen Wilson, Barkhad Abdi and Daniel...
If there’s one thing the Academy loves, it’s movies about men. Would you like to know the last movie to win Best Picture while being about a woman? 2004. Million Dollar Baby. And even that is just as much about Clint Eastwood’s arc, if not more...
Two movies I’ve been hesitant to throw full force into my Oscar predictions have been 20th Century Women and Moonlight. While both seem to be very strong indie contenders, they lacked distribution and 2016 release dates, hurting their chances...

Because all indie films have a scene where characters bond in a bed Netflix has been trying to get their first Oscar for two or three year now. They’ve had a couple of documentaries in contention, and they came close to a narrative nomination...
Break out the diaries and hop on the scales, ladies-Bridget Jones is...
BoJack Horseman has a new trailer for Season 3, coming to Netflix July 22nd. S*ck a d*ck...
