Principal photography on Johan Renck’s “Spaceman” began in April 19, 2021 and wrapped on July 1, 2021 in the Czech Republic. It still hasn’t been released.

I’m pretty sure I mentioned a few weeks ago how “Barbie” wouldn’t pass the smell test in any Middle Eastern countries. Today’s news that it might be banned there isn’t all that surprising.

No, this not another article where I churn out more thoughts on “Barbie” … A Guardian piece titled “Who needs film critics when studios can be sure influencers will praise their films?” is well worth a read.

Today’s film criticism just isn’t what it used to be. The number of people who can call themselves “critics” has watered down the field to sheer nothingness.

Sources are saying that Quentin Tarantino wants Willis for a “cameo role” in his 10th and final film, “The Movie Critic”

Rolling Stone has decided to tackle the 30th anniversary of “The Fugitive” with a handful of interviews, including one with Davis who comes off as, shall we say, blatantly honest about his 1993 film being snubbed by the Academy:

Jim Jarmusch has already mentioned how “Twin Peaks: The Return” was the best piece of American cinema of the last ten years, calling the series an “18-hour film.” Just because of that — all hail, Jim Jarmusch.

This is an interesting twist. “Cocaine Bear” auteur Elizabeth Banks is trying to save face by telling Rolling Stone that the media was behind the “gendered agenda” of her 2019 “Charlie’s Angels,”

I was already hearing toxic things about John Ridley’s “Shirley,” and then word came last fall of additional reshoots for the Netflix-produced film. That put a dent in it appearing at any of the fall festivals.

Bradley Cooper technically could have attended the “Maestro” premiere at Venice as a director, but he also stars in the film. How would that work exactly?
