Prepare yourself for the year to come with 52 highly anticipated new movies to watch in 2018. “Why 52?” That’s the first question we hope gets dropped on Twitter in response to this year’s list. It’s one we get every year, as we’ve done this now since 2013. The reasoning is simple: the average moviegoer sees 8.5 new movies per year. For us, that’s way too low. Now, we understand […]
Remember January – that traditional time in the movigoing calendar when all the studios seize on the post-holiday, post-awards-deadline lull to unload their least-desirable properties? Still, that does not mean there isn't some wheat among the waves of chaff – for example, a Cannes-approved award-winner, an all-business thriller from a cult favorite, a blaxploitation throwback and a glimpse into Russian insanity that sets the Weirdest Documentary of the Year bar […]

The Millennium Falcon may be the key to uniting fans once more. Star Wars: The Last Jedi continues to divide fans on subjects as broad as the nature of belief, the importance of continuity in a franchise that’s existed for four decades and whether or not there is gravity in space — spoilers: science says that there’s also no sound in space but that’s never bothered anyone before now. But perhaps […]
Avengers: Infinity War big bad Thanos was named the most anticipated movie villain of 2018 in an online poll. Josh Brolin plays the Marvel comics supervillain, called the “biggest and baddest” of MCU bad guys by Kevin Feige. Even the combined strength of the Avengers and Guardians of the Galaxy may not be enough to stop Thanos when he gets his hands on the all-powerful Infinity Gauntlet. Past MCU villains have not exactly fired up Marvel fans, […]
If Baby Driver taught folks anything this year, it's that finding just the right song at just the right moment is like kismet. You can't predict it, but when it happens you have to let it wash over you. Typically these jolts of joy occur to individuals listening alone, but every so often they happen to the public at large.
