‘Christopher Robin’ Trailer: Ewan McGregor Gives Winnie the Pooh a ‘Hook’
Aside from Ewan McGregor’s sharp-dressed form, the first observation you’ll make when watching the teaser trailer for Christopher Robin will probably be something like, “Um, isn’t this just Hook, but with Winnie the Pooh and that handsome Scottish man?” And yes, it’s basically that…but hopefully better given some of the talent involved.
‘The Shape of Water’ Oscar Win Inspired a Lot of People to Buy That Fish Man Sex Toy
In The Shape of Water, Sally Hawkins plays a mute cleaning woman who falls in love with a magical fish man (Doug Jones) and promptly fulfills our pervy hopes and dreams by — spoilers, I guess? — consummating the relationship. Unfortunately for us pervs, we never get to see his, um, fish stick, and although Hawkins’ character cutely explains how his aquatic appendage works via a few hand signs, it leaves a lot to the imagination. Thanks to advances in technology and manufacturing, we don’t have to imagine what that dang ol’ dongle looks like because now there’s a sex toy.

‘Fear’ Remake Will Explore the Stalker Thriller From a Woman’s POV
On a list of “movies least likely to get remade” you’d probably find Fear, the 1996 thriller starring Reese Witherspoon as a wholesome teen who gives up her virginity to bad boy Mark Wahlberg, who turns out to be a violent stalker — thus justifying her overprotective father’s concerns. But this is 2018, where anything and everything will be made or remade into a movie, and since women’s issues are So Hot Right Now, we’re getting a remake of Fear told from the perspective of the Witherspoon character.
Disney Delays Live-Action ‘Mulan’ to 2020
The studio has delayed the release of the live-action remake by two whole years.
Chris Hemsworth Might Be Starring in That ‘Men in Black’ Reboot
A reboot of Men in Black doesn’t sound all that appealing — especially ever since we learned that the proposed 21 Jump Street / MiB crossover is no longer in the works. But when you bring Chris Hemsworth into the equation, suddenly a Men in Black reboot sounds pretty damn attractive. Handsome, even.
Jennifer Lawrence Really Did Not Care for ‘Phantom Thread’
Can you really say you disliked a movie if you turned it off after only watching the first three minutes? According to Jennifer Lawrence — and my mom — you can.
What’s New on Netflix: March 2018
Netflix’s full March lineup includes new seasons of ‘Jessica Jones’ and ‘Love,’ along with classic films like ‘Ghostbusters’ and ‘Casino.’
‘Jurassic World 3’ Sets an Official 2021 Release Date
Jurassic World: Fallen Kingdom (they’re really sticking with that, aren’t they) doesn’t hit theaters until this summer, but Universal is already plotting the next sequel — and they’ve enlisted a new (female!) screenwriter to lend Colin Trevorrow a hand. Jurassic World 3 will officially wreak havoc on a theater near you in 2021. Given Fallen Kingdom’s ridiculous “rescue the dinosaurs from extinction (again)” plot, we have to assume that — spoiler? — the dinos will continue to terrorize humans in some capacity because clearly these people have learned nothing.

Jon Favreau Has a ‘Very Cool and Important’ Voice Role in ‘Solo: A Star Wars Story’
In addition to (finally) premiering the first trailer for Solo: A Star Wars Story, Lucasfilm is revealing all kinds of cool new details from the upcoming prequel / spinoff. Over the past week we’ve seen new images and posters, and learned quite a bit about the mysterious characters played by Emilia Clarke and Paul Bettany. With only a few months left until Solo hits theaters, a casting announcement is probably the last thing you’d expect.
What the New ‘Star Wars’ Series From the ‘Game of Thrones’ Guys Could Be About
With the current Star Wars trilogy nearing an end, Lucasfilm is looking ahead to the future of the iconic franchise. Not content to have merely one new series of Star Wars films on the horizon (courtesy of Rian Johnson), the studio is hedging its bets with a second series; in a pop culture marriage to rival that of Disney and Fox, Lucasfilm has enlisted the creators of Game of Thrones to work their mega-budget magic on the galaxies far, far away. But what exactly will this new series be about? We have some ideas.
Uma Thurman Says Tarantino Isn’t to Blame for ‘Kill Bill’ Crash Cover-Up
The actress commended Tarantino for “doing the right thing and for his courage,” noting that he handed over the video with “full knowledge it could cause him personal harm.”
Full ‘Dundee’ Trailer Reveals Hugh Jackman, Margot Robbie and More Aussie Faves
It didn’t take long for someone to spill the beans on Danny McBride’s weird Dundee movie, which, as some suspected, is part of an elaborate ad campaign. Still, it’s hard to deny the appeal of a Crocodile Dundee sequel starring Danny McBride and Chris Hemsworth — no matter how obviously fake it is. So we’re not exactly mad about the “full trailer” for the “movie,” which unveils a cast stacked with Aussie faves like Hugh Jackman and Margot Robbie.
