It's finally here! The first official trailer for Spider-Man: Brand New Day - the fourth installment in the MCU Tom Holland led Spider-Man franchise - has finally been released by Sony! After announcing the start of production with a set of hype-inducing first-look photos and cast announcements, it's been pretty quiet on the Spider-Man: Brand New Day end... at least officially. A very similar - but not. exact - version of this trailer leaked all the way back in December and we've been on pins and needles to get a more extended official look at this movie since then. As the biggest Spider-Man fan you will probably find talking about the character online (look at my icon photo), it's safe to say that I've been deliriously excited for this movie, as kind of a fresh new entry way into this particular Spidey franchise. Destin Daniel Cretton is also a director who I've always been a huge fan of (Short Term 12 is one of my favorite movies ever made) and I was really hoping he'd be able to punch up this film, both on a visual and emotional level, from the previous films directed by Jon Watts. And, from this trailer, I think it's fair to say it's showing signs that he did just that! Continue on to hear my initial reaction after seeing the trailer!

My most anticipated movie of 2026 - Project Hail Mary - is finally out in cinemas and I think it's pretty safe to say that my track record of my most anticipated movies of each year turning into absolute bangers continues to be pretty good. This is the first time Phil Lord & Christopher MIller - who are truly two of my favorite creatives working in Hollywood - have been behind the camera and directing since 22 Jump Street. They've been major creative & producorial forces behind the Spider-Verse movies and things like The Mitchells vs. The Machines but this is their first live-action work in over a decade, minus their short stint on Solo over at Lucasfilm. But to team them up with Ryan Gosling, with a screenplay adapted from an Andy Weir (The Martian) novel by Drew Goddard - who also adapted The Martian and created Netflix's Daredevil - sounded like every ingrediant I could possibly want for a dream movie. So, does Project Hail Mary deliver? Find out in this review!

We are now just a day or two away from the 98th Academy Awards and just a few days ago, I already provided my FINAL predictions for who I think are going to take that gold statue for each category. But, now... we're going to get real spicy. As always, I am going to be ranking all 10 of the films nominated for Best Picture this year, from the worst to the best. I think this is a pretty special lineup of movies; I honestly only dislike ONE of these movies and, even then, it's not straight up bad like some movies nominated for this category in the past have been (*cough cough* Emilia Perez ). So, let's begin!

The time is almost here! The 2026 Academy Awards are just a few days away and, as always(!), I will be providing my predictions for the winners of all 25 categories at the 98th OSCARS this Sunday, being hosted by Conan O'Brien. This is coming from someone who's been following the OSCARS pretty much since I got into movies as a cinephile and the craziness & the drama leading into it is some of my favorite stuff in the online film space. And finally, after months and month of predictions and precursors, awards season is finally going to culminate in the big night... a night that should happen sooner (like it used to!) might I add. Will Timmy still pull off the Best Actor victory despite not being able to put Marty away? Will Sinners break all precursor odds by winning the big prize? Well, listen to my predictions to find out what I think! I think we can all agree that the biggest lock - thank god - is that PTA will be finally winning his first OSCAR!

PIXAR is back! Hoppers is the latest original animated effort from the studio and is looking to be (fingers crossed) their first original hit in quite a while. Now, to be fair, Elemental did have great legs and went on to make over half a billion dollars... but even that had a really slow start opening weekend. It continued on and made money becuase it was well received, and I think a similar effect will work on Hoppers even though it's already opening bigger. I have loved Pixar since I was a kid; like so many Gen-Z'ers, so many of their movies mean so much to me and I'm always ready for Pixar to shatter my soul & piece it back together all in a 100-minute family film. Does Hoppers alos stand as their best original work of the 2020s? Find out in this review!

Maggie Gyllenhaal's latest film - The Bride! - has now hit theaters. This is the latest film from Mike De Luca and Pam Abdy's Warner Bros. slate where they let a bunch of filmmakers off the leash to make some wild, original movies... and this one is no exception. Delays and rumors of bad test screenings aside, I have been hyped to see a new take on the Bride side of the original Frankenstein story from Mary Shelley and I'm glad to say that I had a really good time with it, despite the film being overstuffed and packed with just a few too many ideas for it's own good. Listen on to hear more!

Welp, here we go. Scream 7, which comes from franchise creator Kevin Williamson and stars the queen of final girls herself Neve Campbell, is now out in cinemas. Listen, I don't know about you but I'm just glad we can all move on from this movie now that it's finally out. It's a shame because the original Scream is - and always will be - my favorite horror movie of all-time; it was inventive and broke the genre it ways that were needed in 1996 while still showing such love and admiration from it. Scream 7 loses the plot and does not understand what made this franchise great in the first place... and no, I'm not just hating on it because of dumb actions made by studio executives. Listen on to here why Scream 7 is the first truly terrible Scream movie.

Crime 101 - based on a novella by Don Winslow - lands in cinemas this weekend. It's a crime saga but a surprisingly focused chaaracter drama, with interconeecting threads that lead to quite the convergence in the third act of this movie. This film is being adapted by Bart Layton, who made the critically acclaimed American Animals which I was also a big fan of. Unlike that though, he's now been given a big Hollywood production with big name movie stars and a much, much bigger budget. Does Crime 101 live up to his previously acclaimed work? Find out in this review!

Another year of movies is now behind us... or - I should say - it's been behind us now for over a month. I had a busy, bust end to 2025 and an even busier begining to 2026, meaning that I pretty much had no time to record my usual end-of-the-year lists and even less time to watch all the movies I wanted to see. And despite being over a month late, some sacrifices did have to be made on the film department. And just to warn you, my list is extremely boring this year. I promise you I didn't just look at the Best Picture lineup and try to match my top 10 list to be as close as possible to it; most of my list was already done by the time we got anywhere near the announcement of the OSCAR nominations. Anyways, that's enough of the broing setup. At long last, here are MY top 10 favorite movies of 2025!

Sam Raimi is finally back! Send Help (20th Century Studios) finally hits UK cinemas this weekend after rolling out in most international markets last week (& with preview screenings the week before that!). If you watched my most anticipated films of 2026 ranking, you'll know that this was one of my top ten most anticipated films of the year because I love, LOVE Sam Raimi's work, whether it's a big, heartfelt, crowdpleasing comic book film or a kooky, goofy genre thriller. Send Help marks only Sam Raimi's third film in the last decade and a half, and is his first original thriller in over fifteen years. I also love both Rachel McAdams and Dylan O'Brien, and the early reviews seemed to indicate that my hype would be satisfied. So, did Sam Raimi deliver? Find out in this review!

The second film of the 28 Years Later trilogy has been out in cinemas for a good few weeks now and, unfortunately, I hadn't been able to make it to a screening until yesterday. I love the original 28 Days Later - it might just be the absolute pinaccle of 'infected' horror stories onscreen. I even have a bit of a soft spot for 28 Weeks Later so I was pumped going into 28 Years Later last year. And overall, I would describe my experience with that film as mixed-positive. A lot of the individual pieces could be no shortage of moving, horrifying and surprisingly poignant... but as a whole, I really think Danny Boyle sacrificied some story flow and chaarcter for the sake of overstylization. I know I'm in the minority with that, and I LOVE Dannoy Boyle's work usually... but I was expecting to love it more... well, in comes 28 Years Later: The Bone Temple. Is it the best sequel in the franchsie? Find out in this review!
28 Years Later: The Bone Temple:

Marvel Television's Wonder Man dropped on Disney+ earlier this week with all eight of its episodes releasing on the platform at the same time (which I'll discuss). I don't know if I've ever discussed this series on the show before, and it comes down to many reasons that can be boiled down to two: people becoming less interested in the MCU, and me becoming less interested in these random off-shoot projects that feel like they were made to fill up slots on a streaming service. Knowing the creatives involved though, I should've known better. Anyways, here are my SPOILER-FREE thoughts on the entire series of Wonder Man (assuming it doesn't get a second season).

Almost a month late but here it is! Today, I'll (FINALLY) be counting down my top 10 most anticipated movies of 2026! I haven't recorded myself talking about movies or TV in over three weeks, so I'm a little rusty... but I hope the wait for me to finally unveil my annual end-of-the-year lists will be worth it. 2025 was a prety darn good year for movies and 2026 looks like it's going to be even better, with a lot of franchises getting some new lifeblood, bold original visions hitting the biggest screens and movies from so many of our most prominent, beloved filmmakers. So, sit back, grab some popcorn and get ready to hear the ten films that I, personally, am most looking forward to in 2026... with a lot of honorable mentions!

The series finale of Stranger Things released over New Year's Eve and now, after nine years, ends one of the biggest shows - or pieces of entertainment in general - in pop culture of the last 25 years. This show, made initially on a shoestring budget by a bunch of lifelong nerds looking for their big break in the industry, truly has defied all odds in it's near 10-year airing period. In an era where almost nothing in pop culture has any kind of shelf life or the abillity to make any kind of mark, Stranger Things did all that. It's the face of an entire company and streaming service, soon-to-be owners of a major Hollywood movie studio. As a lifelong nerd myself, this show about a group of brave friends who happen to be avid Dungeons & Dragons players and readers of X-Men comics has obviously always spoken to me on a personal level. I have my nitpicks with every season of the show but I truly can't undersell how much I love the characters and how much I wanted this show to go out on the highest of high notes. Season 5, if you've been following the online discourse, has certainly been a whirlwind, but did the finale stick the landing? Find out my thoughts right here!

James Cameron has returned to take us on a third trip to Pandora. Avatar: Fire and Ash is now out in cinemas worldwide and I finally, FINALLY had the chance to see the film yesterday after a long week of packing and traveling. This has easily been one of my most anticipated films of the year and pretty easily so because back in September 2022, I fell in love with this franchise. Finally having the chance to see the first Avatar in cinemas during its theatrical release-release was a game-changing cinematic experience for me and completely changed my perspective on a film that I felt very lukewarm to before that point. And then in December, Avatar: The Way of Water became a smash box office hit and, as far as I’m concerned, surpassed the first film by almost every single measure of quality. So, is the magic and awe of Pandora still alive? Is Avatar: Fire and Ash the best film in the trilogy? Find out all the answers in this review!

The first teaser trailer for DC Studios’ Supergirl has now dropped online. Starting Milly Alcock, Supergirl marks the sophomore effort in James Gunn & Peter Safran’s new DCU following Superman’s critical and commercial success. After years and years of anticipation and defending James Gunn’s DCU years before it even began, it was so satisfying to see people fall in love with Superman again back in July and to see people genuinely excited about DC on the big screen again. These characters and the universe as a whole has mean the world to me ever since I was a kid, and to see them finally getting adapted onto the big screen in (mostly) the way I’d always hoped is so damn exciting. Supergirl: Woman of Tomorrow is one of my favorite DC comics of all-time, so to say I was excited when Gunn announced the story being adapted to a movie would be an understatement. I’ve long BEGGED for more comic book movies to do more straightforward adaptations of comic book stories. At the end of the day, you’re never going to do better than the best work from the people who understand these characters best: the comic book writers who grew up being nerds like us about these universes. Tom King is also one of my favorite working comic book writers so to just see a spotlight put on one of his stories like this is just great. My excitement for the film multiplied when the crew, as well as director Craig Gillespie, came on board for the film. Well, the teaser trailer is finally here. Is this everything I hoped for? Find out by clicking play!

Walt Disney Animation Studios has had a rough couple years (to be nice), so it should be a surprise to absolutely no one that I had very little anticipation for Zootopia 2, yet another nearly 10-year late sequel from one of the House of Mouse's big animation studios. I felt this way despite being a kid at the prime age when Zootopia came out, just like I was with Moana and Pixar's Inside Out. But, when I opened social media a few days ago... I was shocked to see this movie getting rave reviews and my curiosity was piqued.So, is Zootopia 2 a worthy sequel to one of the biggest original animated films of all-time? Find out in this review!

Rian Johnson & Daniel Craig have returned to deliver us their third Knives Out Mystery. Wake Up Dead Man has now dropped in select theaters worldwide, and will drop on Netflix on December 12. I'm very lucky to be ten minutes away from a local cinema that plays all of Netflix's releases before they drop on the platform, so you bet I rushed out to see the new whodunnit on the first day of release. The first Knives Out is easily my favorite murder-mystery of all-time, and Glass Onion was definitely a really solid follow-up even if it was a little uneven. More importantly though, I think Benoit Blanc, played by Daniel Craig, has to be on the Mount Rushmore of most iconic new movie characters of the past decade; in fact, I think Craig is so good in the role that Blanc is now dangerously close to overtaking Bond as his most iconic character. I know, I know... sue me. Rian Johnson is also one of my favorite filmmakers and he never misses! So, is Wake Up Dead Man the most engrossing mystery the team have delivered yet? Find out in this review!
Wake Up Dead Man:

Wicked is back to defy gravity once again and rock the moviegoing population worldiwde. After the gigantic critical, financial and awards hit that was the first Wicked , Wicked: For Good aims to close out the adaptation of the stage musical. But, as most people online now, the second half of the Wicked musical is infamous for being much weaker than the first. I was shocked last year when I stepped into that screening and came out actually liking Wicked; I was not looking forward to seeing a nearly three-hour musical that was only going to tell half the story, but the performances, musical numbers and world building really won me over. I didn't think it was quite great, and scoffed a little at all the awards aclaim that followed its release... but there's no denying how much that movie struck a chord. So, with Wicked: For Good, is Jon M. Chu able to capture lightning in a bottle for a second time and deliver on what the stage musical could not? Find out in this review!

I'm still here, ya sh*t-eaters! Edgar Wright's adaptation of Stephen King's The Running Man runs into cinemas in a few days but I had the lucky opportunity to see it early at a mystery screening! I am a huge Edgar Wright fan; I love so many of his movies but I'll admit, I was maybe a little down on him after the very disappointing Last Night in Soho. That was a film I was highly anticipating but was pretty let down by the diretion the narrative took in the backhalf, even if I loved the cast and a lot of aesthetics of the film. The Running Man, though, looked like a return to the fun I love in most of my favorite Edgar Wright movies - and the early reviews definitely indicated that I was correct about that gut reaction. Were they right? Find out in this review!

Directed by: Edgar Wright
Based on the novel by: Stephen King

As ratings skyrocket, so does the danger, and Ben must outwit not just the Hunters, but a nation addicted to watching him fall.
