Advertisement Mike Mignola: Originally it was just something to distract myself, as we were suddenly living in very uncertain times and I couldn’t really concentrate on doing “real” work. So many of the Hellboy projects were suddenly on hold with no idea when things were going to start up again, so I just started playing—and posting the drawings on Facebook. It was really all just something to entertain myself and (hopefully) the people that follow me on social media. io9: When you wer...

Waffles + Mochi sees two more culinary enthusiasts following in the footsteps of the great Anthony Bourdain.

Photo: The A.V. Club We’ve already heard about the most exciting new addition coming to the Disney+ library in April, with the streaming platform getting a surprising supply of rare Star Wars spin-offs (including two spin-off movies about Ewoks and an animated short from the Star Wars Holiday Special featuring the first appearance of Boba Fett), but there will be other new things to watch next month. How about the finale of The Falcon And The Winter Soldier? Or another episode of Marvel S...

WandaVision’s first episode, which is set in the 1950s à la The Dick Van Dyke Show (which was actually the early ‘60s), the production tried to copy almost everything a show like that would have done. It was shot in front of a live studio audience who were asked to sit on old chairs. Vision’s office set, as well as the living room and kitchen sets, were all on the same stage next to each other. The actors wore period clothing, down to the underwear, and even the crew all dressed up in p...

Image Of Jack Skellington With Particularly Wicked Smile Suggests T-Shirt Wearer Not Your Typical Disney Fan HASTINGS, NY—Pointing to the alarming picture as a sign that something was unmistakably amiss, sources confirmed Thursday that an image of Jack Skellington with a particularly wicked smile suggested that a local T-shirt wearer was not your typical Disney fan. “It’s clear from looking at the face of the Nightmare Before Christmas protagonist with his teeth bared and his eyes glarin...

For years, fans of director Zack Snyder have wondered, often to the point of questionable fervor, what could’ve happened in an alternate world where he got to finish 2017s Justice League. Four years and tens of millions of dollars later, Warner Bros. has opened a Pandora’s box to place us in that reality—and it turns out what Snyder has made is still at its core Justice League, for better and worse.

For better or worse, Zack Snyder’s Justice League is a reclamation, and a blow struck for unchecked artistic ego in the face of the endless notes of meddling studio execs.

Advertisement Nightbreed: The Director’s Cut (2014) While overprotective parents and other self-appointed cultural watchdogs in the late ’80s looked on the gory, perverse Hellraiser as an unalloyed evil, Pinhead notably introduces himself and his fellow Cenobites as “demons to some, angels to others.” Those ghastly denizens of the netherworld may have spelled simple terror for characters disinclined to enter their world of pain and pleasure, but for the more refined thrill-seekers of t...

It’s been two years since the In The Heights cast spent a summer in Washington Heights filming the big screen adaptation of Lin-Manuel Miranda’s Broadway hit. In all it’s been almost 20 years since Miranda first envisioned a musical that represented the world he grew up in. “No one was was writing parts for people like him, so he wrote them,” In The Heights’ film director Jon M. Chu ( Crazy Rich Asians) told reporters this weekend ahead of the release of two new trailers. “No on...

For a while, the biggest film story of 2020 was what movies weren’t coming out, as the pandemic closed theaters and bumped release dates for some of the year’s biggest would-be blockbusters (see you later, Black Widow and No Time to Die, hopefully) and buzziest awards-bait (or is there another reason Spielberg directed a remake of West Side Story?). But no more, because it turns out a lot of good movies were still released last year—and lots of them have just been nominated for Oscars...
