During a conversation with ScreenRant’s Ash Crossan, director Dan Trachtenberg shared that an initial idea for Predator: Badlands involved the Predator hunting Nazis. This concept came about as Trachtenberg explored ways to position the Predator as the hero of the story. To make the Predator victorious, he needed to find a group of villains that audiences wouldn’t want to see succeed.
Cowboy Bebop was widely praised and helped introduce many Western viewers to anime in the late 1990s. Though often described as a space western, the show successfully mixes science fiction, action, and drama, all within a stylish, dark atmosphere. Its success naturally led to a live-action adaptation on Netflix, but unfortunately, it didn’t live up to the original. The 2021 series failed to capture what made Cowboy Bebop so special, likely because trying to perfectly copy something unique is a recipe for disaster.
Variety reports that David Ellison’s leadership at Paramount is aiming to create a fresh Star Trek film. This won’t be a continuation of the previous movies starring Chris Pine, Zoe Saldaña, and the original reboot cast, but rather a brand new story.
The popular Disney+ series The Mandalorian—which will be the foundation for the 2026 film The Mandalorian and Grogu—was a huge hit. Its success opened the door for Star Wars to explore television storytelling in a brand new way.
BT Meza’s film, “Affection,” starts strong with a visually appealing and intriguing opening scene. Jessica Rothe, a gifted actress often overlooked, delivers a compelling performance, showcasing the skills she’s demonstrated in films like “La La Land” and “Happy Death Day.” While the film begins promisingly, it gradually loses its momentum. The problem isn’t the story idea or the acting, but rather a needlessly complex plot that ultimately raises more questions than it answers.
Сейчас, если мы немного отступим и присмотримся к общей картине – потому что кто не любит хорошенько прищуриться? – она показывает, что BTC упал более чем на 20% от своего исторического максимума. Корень этих проблем? О, просто обычные подозреваемые: государственные перекрытия, экономические трудности и инвесторы, обнаружившие, что покупать на снижении не так просто, как кажется. В классическом стиле наше ценное криптовалютное сообщество коллективно потеряло около $300 миллиардов. На эти деньги можно было бы купить довольно много островов, хотя я бы не советовал это делать в данный момент! 🌴
I was watching Stephen Colbert interview Tom Hanks about his new play, and it hit me – it’s been three decades since Toy Story first came out! Colbert pointed out how long it’s been since we all met Woody, Buzz, and the gang. But Hanks quickly turned it around and started talking about how much longer it’s been for everyone who actually made the movie – the cast and crew. It’s easy to forget that for them, it’s been thirty years of memories and a whole life chapter tied to that film.
Typically, network TV saves its best comedies for later in the year, but 2025 is different. This fall, the new show St. Denis Medical is leading the charge, and it’s all about the lives of the doctors and nurses who work there. TopMob recently chatted with the show’s stars – Alison Tolman, Mekki Lepper, Kaliko Kauahi, Wendi McLendon-Covey, and Kahyun Kim – to mark the beginning of Season 2.
Even the most beloved TV comedies have a few weak episodes, and sometimes even a whole season that isn’t very good. It’s common for shows to have ups and downs over many seasons, but often they bounce back and regain their quality.
Okay, let’s talk about Hulu’s All’s Fair. Right now, it’s facing a pretty tough reception. Critics haven’t been kind – it currently has a 0% rating on Rotten Tomatoes, and that’s never a good look. Now, that score is based on a small number of reviews – just eight, to be exact – and the audience isn’t much warmer, giving it a 56% rating after a little over 100 votes. While things could turn around, the initial reviews have been pretty harsh, and it’s definitely got an uphill battle ahead of it.
