In case you were unaware, actual clowns are upset with Andy Muschietti’s recent movie adaptation of Stephen King’s ‘IT’. It prompted Pam Moody, President of the World Clown Association, to release a statement on the matter: “People had school shows and library shows that were canceled. That’s very unfortunate. The very public we’re trying to deliver positive and important messages to aren’t getting them.” She then went on to speak about how clowns are different from regular people: “They’re different from regular people — they’re costumed characters. But no one is picking on the Santa Clauses, because that would ruin the…

It’s no secret that IT has been a massive success both critically and financially. The film had the biggest opening weekend ever for a Horror movie and will soon pass The Exorcist as the highest grossing R-Rated Horror movie of all time. Deadline reports: In regards to the early fall, It is the largest title ever between the Labor Day-to-November frame; the horror film eventually will beat Gravity ($274M), which is October’s highest-grossing title ever stateside. By Thursday, It will stand around $386M at the worldwide box office, still behind Exorcist‘s $441.3M. You don’t get to these numbers strictly playing to a genre fanbase; other adults and legacy…

To say that Justice League was a highly anticipated film within the comic book community would be a massive understatement. Though the film has had trouble behind the scenes, it still should easily make a ton of cash at the Box Office. Warner Bros. apparently held a test screening last night, and the first reactions made their way onto Twitter: Looks like Justice League screened tonight… pic.twitter.com/tJq2JNldm5 — Lindsay (@Steele131) September 20, 2017 Well. “Fine” is “Fine”, though I think most of us were expecting quite a bit more. It’s hard to take these reactions seriously though, as it is…

Though Hugh Jackman’s final time playing Wolverine in this year’s Logan wasn’t too long ago (at all), it appears that rebooting the character isn’t completely off the cards – according to 20th Century Fox chairman and CEO Stacey Snider. When asked about that possibility, Snider had this to say to Variety: “Anything’s possible.” Back in June, Logan producer Hutch Parker had the following to say about that possibility: “I think there’s a part for all of us that feels like Logan, as played by Hugh, is the definitive performance of that character. And I think we’re all a little hesitant at…

Though it’s been speculated that more than one key member of The Avengers could die in Avengers: Infinity War, set photos for Avengers 4 keep (seemingly) eliminating those possibilities. The latest set photo from Avengers 4 shows us one member of the team that everyone pretty much thought was as good as gone. Brie Larson and Chris Evans are reportedly getting to work on #Avengers4 this week in Atlanta! https://t.co/NK4nNCQKB2 — JustJared.com (@JustJared) September 18, 2017 That’s right, Captain America will apparently live through Infinity War.

When it comes to scaring Stephen King, that might be a hard task when you look at all the people he’s scared over his life. Apparently the recent movie adaptation of his novel, IT, did just that. According to one of the film’s producers and sister of director Andy Muschietti, Barbara Muschietti, the disturbing scene featuring Stanley Uris and a creepy painting was the one that did it: “It’s something that actually, Stephen King, the first email he sent to Andy when he had seen the movie, the one fear he wrote back, he said, ‘I f–king love the woman in the…

Fans are eagerly awaiting November’s Justice League in large part due to Ben Affleck’s Batman. There was some controversy with how the character was portrayed in Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice, but in a new interview with Us Magazine, Ben Affleck revealed the character definitely won’t be the same: “In Batman v Superman, he was at the end of his rope. But in Justice League, he’s finding hope again. He has to open up and play well with others. He knows he needs them.” It isn’t really that hard to see that that is what Zack Snyder was going for, though…

Michael Keaton is regarded as one of the better Batman actors to portray the DC Comics character in live action. What many fans might not know however, is the exact reason why the actor wasn’t in 1995’s Batman Forever. In a new interview with The Guardian, Keaton shed some light on just why that was: “[The film] just wasn’t any good, man,” Keaton said. “I tried to be patient, but after a certain point, I was like, I can’t take this any more, this is going to be horrible. But, look, there was some really horrible taste in the ’90s, and I…

The CBS broadcast of the 69th Primetime Emmy Awards is looking at a new all-time low – at least in the preliminary ratings, that is. Scoring an 8.2/14 in metered market ratings, the show was somewhat from the 8.4/13 that ABC and Jimmy Kimmel woke up to a year ago. The 2016 kudoscast went on to post 11.3 million total viewers and a 2.8 demo rating, which at the time marked all-time lows. Per The Hollywood Reporter: The Emmys are becoming a tougher sell for viewers. For another year, initial ratings for the TV awards are down — this time slipping…
