Hugh Jackman spent almost 20 years making X-Men movies shackled by a PG-13 rating. At least until 2017’s Logan, he couldn’t swear, and certainly couldn’t do much with his claws besides wave them in the air a whole bunch. His Wolverine never got to truly cut loose. Based on the trailers for Jackman’s return to the X-Men universe in Deadpool & Wolverine, there are no such restrictions this time. The latest trailer, which is here to hype the fact that you can now buy advance tickets for the film, contains more F-bombs than other entire phases of the Marvel Cinematic Universe. And it’s only one mi...

If only IHOP stood for “Imaginary House of Pancakes.” Then I wouldn’t have to eat anything today. Alas, unlike the magical creatures in John Krasinski’s new kids movie, IHOP is very real. And so is their new themed menu inspired by Krasinski’s IF, which consists of four entrées and two drinks. Today, I’m going to eat all of it. Now, you might be wondering: Why would a person with multiple college degrees, two kids, and no evident death wish do such a thing? I ask myself that same question a lot. It all started a few years ago when, looking for a mea culpa to offer my boss after a screwup, I vo...

Happy Gilmore is stepping up to the tee again in a new sequel movie. After months of hints and and rumors, Netflix confirmed they are working with Adam Sandler on a sequel to his hit ’90s comedy Happy Gilmore. In the original film, Sandler played the title character, a middling hockey player with a violent temper who discovers an incredible gift for golf. He goes on the pro tour where he battles a cocky veteran named Shooter McGavin and gets into a fist fight with The Price Is Right host Bob Barker. (RIP.) Hilarity ensued. Happy Gilmore was one of Sandler’s earliest big-screen vehicles and one...

John Wick’s first spinoff movie is still months away, but Lionsgate is already working on a second — this one about Donnie Yen’s blind assassin character from John Wick: Chapter 4. Yen appeared in the film as Caine, a former hit man for the High Table, who accepts a job hunting down Keanu Reeves’ John Wick. Without spoiling too much about the film, the movie ended on a cliffhanger involving Caine and his family — one that could be picked up in this project. Yen is set to reprise his role as Caine in the film, which will be shot in Hong Kong next year. READ MORE: How John Wick Pulled Off Its Gr...

IFis the sort of prodigious failure that only a very successful filmmaker can create. Only a director with a track record like John Krasinski could convince a studio to bankroll a film this egregiously saccharine and devoid of drama, and only a guy with a ton of pull in Hollywood could to recruit so many A-list stars to appear in it. Krasinski’s last two movies as a writer and director, the first A Quiet Place and its sequel, grossed more than $630 million for Paramount. They returned the favor by funding IF. The title is short for “imaginary friend”; for reasons the film does not explain, the...

The MTV Movie and TV Awards have been axed for 2024. The ceremony, which first aired back in 1992, when it was called the MTV Movie Awards, is expected to return in 2025 with a “re-imagined format,” according to various outlets. The 2023 ceremony was pre-recorded after Drew Barrymore stepped down as the host amid the Hollywood writers strike in support of the Writers Guild of America (WGA). The event went host-less, and ratings didn’t suffer at all. The Drew Barrymore Show host, 49, was expected to return this year, and it’s not known if she will be back for 2025. In a statement issued to Vari...

Pain still don’t hurt. Even in sequels! It was a risky move, remaking Road House, a film so singularly focused on its quirky ’80s vibe and the charisma of its star, the late Patrick Swayze. But this year’s update, which starred Jake Gyllenhaal in the Swayze role of bouncer supreme Elwood Dalton, proved popular with streaming audiences on Amazon’s Prime Video — popular enough, in fact, that Amazon is now going to make a sequel. The streaming service announced the news at their upfronts today, tweeting on their official account that “Jake Gyllenhaal is set to reprise his role” in a Road House se...

In the world of movies, the smart money is always on sequels failing to live up to the film that inspired them. Decades of cinema history offer pretty concrete evidence that the odds are always against sequels. In fact, some of the very best movies ever made have led to some of the worst sequels ever made, something we explored at length on a recent list. Now it’s time to test the odds in the opposite direction, and to take a look look at sequels that were not only good, they were actually better than the middling to outright badmovies that preceded them. These sorts of films are rare — far ra...

Chris Pratt has teased that a “Nintendo cinematic universe” could be in the pipeline. The 44-year-old actor will once again play Mario in the recently-announced sequel to The Super Mario Bros. Movie and thinks there is “so much to explore” in terms of stories based on the characters created by the Japanese video game company. Speaking to ScreenRant, Chris said: “Oh, man! There’s so much to explore. There are decades worth of (games) to explore, not only with Mario and Peach and Donkey Kong and Luigi and Bowser and Yoshi; that was teased at the end.” “But it just gets me so excited. I was such ...
