Starting with an icebreaker: Did you know that 'Super Freaky Girl' by Nicki Minaj is apparently the most popular song on peoples' sex playlists? And in other, no-less serious news, Taylor Swift announced the end of her Eras Tour (something you can experience secondhand here) while Brits also went crazy for a tiny ceramic goat made by King Charles III 55-years-ago. What we're trying to say is, it's been a weird time. And our emotions are all over the place (we blame Inside Out 2), so it's probably best we just dive into this week's recommendations.

For decades, it seemed that Pixar couldn't lose. Starting with "Toy Story" in 1995, the Emeryville-based computer animation studio rolled out hit after hit, with movies that achieved critical acclaim as well as box office riches. But after the COVID-19 pandemic struck, even the once-unflappable Pixar fell victim to the doldrums plaguing the entertainment industry and the company's own missteps. Films such as "Lightyear" did poorly at the box office, partly due to their timing during the pandemic and a perceived falloff in quality, for which Pixar had long been considered the gold standard.

When it was announced that German director Julia von Heinz was going to adapt Australian novelist Lily Brett’s semi-autobiographical novel “Too Many Men”, there was every reason to be excited. Coming off the back of her Venice-premiering Antifa thriller Und morgen die ganze Welt (And Tomorrow The Entire World), von Heinz seemed like the ideal fit for Brett’s novel, a moving, insightful and often comic chronicle of how Ruth, an American businesswoman, brings her father Edek, an Auschwitz survivor, back to Poland to face the past to better confront the future. The 1999 book stands as a thoughtfu...

Los Angeles (AFP) - The producers of the James Bond movies will receive honorary Oscars at a ceremony this November, the Academy said Wednesday, as anticipation swells for the announcement of who will next play 007. Half-siblings Michael G. Wilson and Barbara Broccoli have controlled the beloved espionage franchise since 1995's "Goldeneye," having been passed the reins by Broccoli's father Albert. They have overseen several of the series' biggest-ever movies including the $1 billion-grossing "Skyfall" in 2012, in which Daniel Craig played the suave British spy with a license to kill. The award...

Los Angeles (AFP) - Will Smith marked his first major film hit since his infamous Oscars slap as "Bad Boys: Ride or Die" debuted atop the North American box office, in a sign audiences are ready to welcome back the actor. Sony's fourth installment of the action comedy series took home an estimated $56 million, industry watcher Exhibitor Relations reported, making it a major step in Smith's career rehabilitation after he slapped Chris Rock at the Academy Awards in 2022. "Bad Boys is in elite company and the series has room to run. These are excellent numbers," said analyst David A. Gross of Fr...

We all knew casting announcements were bound to happen, since it was announced earlier this year that Oscar-winning director Sam Mendes (Skyfall, 1917) was teaming up with Sony and Apple Corps Ltd. to make four different Beatles biopics. Each biopic will focus on the individual members of the famous British band, and they’ll all supposedly open theatrically in 2027. Now, there have been unconfirmed but widely spread reports that the cast of this upcoming BCU (Beatles Cinematic Universe) has apparently come together. If rumours are to be believed, the Fab Four casting goes like this: Paul McCar...

Happy Pride month! Here's to a June filled with sunshine and rainbows and smiles and... checks notes...the EU elections!

“In the summertime, when the weather is high / You can stretch right up and touch the sky / Then head to the cinema for some well-deserved escapism.” That’s probably what Mungo Jerry meant to say. Yes, it's the summer, so air-conditioned multiplexes are vying for as much attention as they can, with a rollcall of big-budget blockbusters and the occasional indie darling waiting to hit the screens. Granted, Furiosa kicked things off with a bit of whimper and last year’s writers and actors strike disrupted the production pipeline. However, that doesn’t mean there’s not enough out this summer to ke...
