HBO’s Lanterns is earning rave reviews. The new series, a dark take on the mythos of DC Comics’ Green Lantern Corps, has also been attracting scores of viewers in brightest day and darkest night, racing up the streaming charts. In fact, it’s been so successful that it’s having an effect on one of the least-beloved movies in DC’s back catalog. Lanterns, the creation of Tom King, Damon Lindelof, and Chris Mundy, stars Kyle Chandler as Hal Jordan, a veteran member of the Green Lantern Corps. The Corps are a spacefaring organization of peace officers armed with will-powered rings that can…

If Ridley Scott retired 46 years ago, he would still be one of the most influential filmmakers ever. Now The Dog Stars is his 30th movie. And he was already a veteran director before he came to features. Is it true that he made a thousand TV advertisements, or was it two thousand? Ads paid well, and the fast pace suited him. (He has never liked relaxing.) Half a century later, some Brits still remember his bread commercial. And then, on the big screen, he invented a new world. Smoke, steam, neon shadowlight on cybermorphic grime. Big Tech vast as…

With college football already kicking off and the NFL season less than a fortnight away, sports fans are heading into another fall of figuring out which streaming service has which game.

According to the study, American football is the most expensive sport to…
Guess what kids? You never stop learning — even on summer break. As Labor Day weekend approaches and schools re-open their doors, Gold Derby can’t help but think about all the lessons we’ve absorbed since the Memorial Day holiday announced the start of the warm-weather season. Lessons like, Jacob Elordi and Zendaya made darn sure they got the Harrison Ford-in-The Force Awakens clause written into their Euphoria Season 3 contracts. Also, only Taylor Swift can convince celebrities to surrender their Instagram-connected smartphones. Oh yeah, and audiences will definitely pay to watch Anne Hathaway battle Meryl Streep and Robert Pattinson… but…

Ali G’s grand return has not exactly been met with widespread celebration. That’s at least the case from various corners of his home soil in the U.K., where the first big screen outing for Sacha Baron Cohen‘s famed faux rude boy in more than two decades has been hit with a campaign aimed stopping it from reaching cinema screens. Following the release earlier this week of the trailer for Amazon MGM‘s “Ali G: Who Iz I?,” a new mockumentary following the satirical character and due for release on Oct. 23, backlash against the film has steadily intensified. Many have taken…
Lauren Smith/Paramount+ Paramount+’s “Lioness” is gritty, intense, and a vastly different beast to the other Taylor Sheridan TV shows which revolve around ranches, oil, and familial drama. The action-thriller sees Zoe Saldaña’s Joe McNamara lead a covert team of CIA operatives as they untangle global threats from the inside. Each season sees her recruit a new operator, but the core team always stays the same — including Bobby, the leader of the Quick Reaction Force. If the fierce and methodical fighter looks familiar, that’s because she’s played by actor Jill…
