We know that Chadwick Boseman’s heroic Wakandan king T’Challa has to face off against villains like Erik Killmonger (Michael B. Jordan) and M’Baku, aka Man-Ape (Winston Duke) in Marvel Studios’ Black Panther, but those aren’t the only foes he’ll go claw to claw with in the film. Turns out there’s another villain in the movie, and we’ve […]

“May you live to be a thousand years old, sir.” Still the most widely unheralded great movie on the books, John Patrick Shanley’s lightweight/profound fable is an unmitigated delight. See Tom Hanks at the end of the first phase of his career plus Meg Ryan in an unacknowledged career highlight. How can a movie be so purposely insubstantial, and yet be ‘heavier’ than a dozen pictures with ‘big things to say?’

What makes a monster? It’s a question that director Nacho Vigalondo (“Timecrimes,” “Open Windows”) explores both literally and figuratively in “Colossal,” a monster movie that truly defies any preconceived notions of that description. Indeed, Toho, who own the rights to Godzilla, thought they had the film figured out, suing production company Voltage Pictures over concerns […]

Would Aria say no to Ezra?
That was one of the main questions coming out of Pretty Little Liars Season 7 Episode 5 after Ezra popped the question.
TV Fanatics Jay Ruyman, Rachel Miller and Yana Grebenyuk are joined by super fan, Meaghan. They discuss Shower Harvey's return, Aria's answer and their thoughts on Pretty Little Liars Season 7.
What did you think of Shower Harvey's return?
Jay: Uggggghhhhhhhhhhh. Go back to whatever well you fell into, Sara. We've been done with you since the second you showed up. You're just a Jenna-wannabe.
Rachel: Why can’t Sara just disappear into the vortex of forgotten Pll characters? What purpose does she serve? I just want Sara to go away for good.
Yana: Never cared about her but it's like they are dragging her story out for no reason. She never made much sense, which might explain why she is getting this story. We...

The head of China’s biggest film company talks about censorship, increasing artistic quality and box office returns that, he says, will beat America’s by 2017
“I am a member of that legendary species: the nouveau riche. Before, you had the Japanese, the Saudis, the Russians. And now it’s me.” The Chinese banker with the line in Boris Johnson buffoonery has the room falling about with laughter, but his game is deadly serious. He’s part of a special delegation at the Montreal world film festival, dangling millions of dollars for “cultural investments” in front of western film-makers. Near him on the dais, a greying, creamy-skinned man in rimless specs musters the odd half-smile, like he’s heard the speech before. Hiding in plain sight, this is probably the most powerful individual in cinema today.
La Peikang’s business card spells it out: “Chairman of the board, China Film Co.

The Killing is long gone, Borgen is done, and the last foreign drama to really capture the imagination of the British public - Channel 4's French spooker The Returned - won't be back on our screens until at least 2016.
So is our fascination with foreign fare over with - or could another international series be about to break through? Digital Spy takes a look at 8 contenders:
1. Deutschland '83
Where's it from? Germany.
What's it about? Martin Rauch (Jonas Nay) is wrenched from the world he knows and sent to the West as an undercover Stasi spy at the height of the Cold War. Hiding in plain sight in the West German army, he must gather the secrets of Nato military strategy.
Could it be a hit in the UK? Talks with Brit broadcasters are currently ongoing, but a big factor here could be the news that Deutschland '83 is...

It’s time for double the dose of Arrow and The Flash!
The CW's highly anticipated crossover event kicks off Tuesday with Oliver Queen and Co. making an unexpected detour to Central City, and Arrow star Stephen Amell has the perfect word to describe the epic two-night event.
"Crowded!" the 33-year-old actor tells ETonline. "It's a cool two hours of TV and it's fun to see new characters interact with one another. All in all, the whole thing's just a lot of fun."
But it won't be fun for Oliver and Barry Allen, who become foes in Tuesday's The Flash, ominously titled "The Flash vs. Arrow," when the mentor-mentee square off in a heated battle.

TNT‘s Cold Justice is one of those shows that makes you wonder what the hell has gone wrong with the television imitation machine. While every terrible piece of garbage almost instantly spawns at least two or three rip-offs, Cold Justice is still alone in the brilliant and fascinating realm of turning TV money into the funds to pursue difficult cases and the criminals behind them.
The series is returning with new episodes on the 20th, which will kick off with an all day marathon, and on July 18th fans will get their wish as the show will put out a special update episode hosted by John Walsh.

Read our appreciation of Steven Soderbergh’s Ocean’s Eleven here.
* * *
“How old do you think I am?”
Ocean’s Twelve has a reputation that will always precede it; some have called it an anti-sequel, and publications like Entertainment Weekly have dubbed it one of the worst sequels of all time. Though both reactions are, perhaps, understandable, neither is remotely accurate. Ocean’s Twelve is an inherently self-aware sequel, possibly the most self-aware follow-up in modern history. What Steven Soderbergh, screenwriter George Nolfi (whose original script, Honor Among Thieves, was completely unrelated to Ocean’s Eleven and was sold initially before that remake had been released), and the slightly larger-than-before ensemble cast did was make a sequel to a critically and commercially lauded caper film that was wholly cognizant of the fact that it was a sequel to a critically and commercially lauded caper film. Ocean’s Twelve toys with audience expectations,...
