The HBO Max streaming service is scheduled to undergo a number of massive changes soon. With these changes, of course, it’s obvious that plenty of shows and films will be moved around in the process. And, ahead of these changes, it looks like an original series is already being pulled from HBO Max. This particular show, a U.K. series titled Pure, is scheduled to be removed from the streaming service on August 26. Although it’s been a success with critics, it was surprisingly not renewed for a second season, and now its streak of bad luck continues. In fact, the…

With the recent release of Hulu’s prequel to Predator, titled Prey, and an upcoming Children of the Corn revival, it’s safe to say both franchises have thrived quite well since the 1980’s. Although each series has entries that might not be the most well-received by longtime fans, it goes to show just how great and timeless their respective source materials are.

It’s more than likely that the author is speaking in jest.…

Saw: The Final Chapter was the last film in the Saw horror franchise for quite some time.

Now it looks like Saw 10 is being prepared for a 2023 release date – and it has a familiar director attached. As revealed by Bloody-Disgusting, Kevin Greutert has been slated to direct the next Saw entry. He’s…

Taika Waititi, however, has now been targeted by Twitter users over some old tweets that many deem to be “transphobic.” The tweets go back nearly a decade, and as such, there are comparisons being made to when James Gunn’s old tweets were similarly brought up several years ago. As many fans will recall, James Gunn was actually temporarily fired by Disney after the backlash. As of this writing, however, there seems to be no response regarding Taika Waititi. One of…

Fans are interesting in seeing what direction Aquaman and the Lost Kingdom takes the DCEU. After all, the first Aquaman film was a positive step forward. Especially after films like Justice League didn’t exactly pan out the way that both Warner Bros and fans had hoped. And, although details about Aquaman 2 have been scarce, actor Jason Momoa has teased that it will be something of an allegory for climate change. Obviously, this isn’t too surprising given the character’s role in the superhero world. But it certainly sounds like an interesting change of pace from other such projects. Jason Momoa explained…

Many fans were hoping that production for a sequel would get underway immediately. Unfortunately, again much like Avatar, the wait for a sequel took much longer than expected.
