Female centric reboots are becoming the big thing. We have already seen Ghostbusters, Ocean's 8, and What Men Want. A female-centric 21 Jump Street is also in the works, but that's not the only buddy-cop franchise getting the female reboot treatment. We have learned that STX studios are in early
Star Wars Rebels entertained and enthralled us for four seasons. Sure, fans were initially upset at The Clone Wars' cancellation in favor of the new, Rebellion-era animated series. Dave Filoni's master story telling and character development, however, quickly erased much of fans' displeasure. It's

R2-D2, though he never speaks a word, is one of the most recognizable Star Wars characters there is. Fans were saddened when Jimmy Vee, the current Artoo actor, finished filming for Star Wars: Episode IX. Why? That likely means the end of Artoo on film. And let's face it; the diminutive astromech
Oasis: Don’t Look Back in Anger feels like a movie that’s selling itself as something deeper than it ultimately is. There’s an expectation that we’re going to get this grand story about the Gallagher brothers reconciling, putting aside their differences, and coming back together for these
There will be many moments during Paul Greengrass's new film The Uprising that create chilling parallels to recent historical events. His exploration of the 1381 peasants revolt in Medieval England is rooted as much in historical fact as it is relevant to the present day. Some of this is clearly by
