'The Adam Project' Director Reveals He'd Love To Direct A 'Star Wars' And/Or Marvel Movie
About a year ago, in a city far, far north… filming wrapped on Netflix’s The Adam Project. The film stars Ryan Reynolds as Adam Reed, a soldier from the future who crash lands in 2022 and has to team up with his younger self to save the world. It is an interesting concept, though one I doubt is all that original. It has just been released on Netflix and has already earned a fresh score on Rotten Tomatoes. Taking place on Earth, in our world, it seems about as far removed from the Star Wars galaxy as possible. However, the director would like to pay it a visit someday.

Theory: Disney's 'Lightyear' Takes Place In 'Star Wars' Universe
Pixar is no stranger to theories. Almost every movie they have made has some kind of theory surrounding it. Some are simple and clever like Andy’s mom being Jessie’s original owner in Toy Story 2, and some are downright terrifying like any attempt to explain what is going on in the world of Cars.

Forbidden Planet - Pivotal Science Fiction
I remember seeing my first Star Wars film (Episode 4 A New Hope) when it was the first Star Wars film , and that huge spaceship that seemed to never stop as it just filled the cinema screen. How could something be that huge and move and be filmed. You know it’s just special effects that some guys put this together to impress you. This was pre CGI so it was all models and film retouching.

MCU Vs Comics: Star Lord's Origins
Way back in 2014 the ball that was the Marvel Cinematic Universe was picking up speed with no signs of stopping any time soon. The studio was eager to flood the market, but with big name superheroes like Ironman, Captain America, Thor, and even the Avengers already under their belt, they were quickly running out of sure-fire crowd pleasers. With that in mind they attempted what many would consider a hail mary and launched the Guardians of the Galaxy.

Bottom-Rung Star Wars
Battlefield Earth (2000) is a movie that is so unremittingly awful it has been labeled one of the "ten worst films of the Twentieth Century." That's not true at all, but it does go to show that once the tastemakers of the media machine have "decided" on the relative value or worth of a product, they'll waste no time in piling on the said product if they find it to be wanting, often for unspecified reasons.

Pandemic 2025: The After Math No racism, No sexism, No agism. No isms at all, but yet, to keep in line with American values, EVERYONE has to be free, but keep in mind the phrase is "ESSENTIALLY FREE". How? Infrastructure is what we all came to call it. It was quite amazing. For everyone to be free or "essentially free", we the people decided to give up the ONE thing that we had been flirting with as a nation for generations. Our Privacy! Privacy is completely GONE.

Movie Trek 4: There Be Whales Here!
Star Trek IV is the most atypical of the Trek films, and yet, easily the most popular, at least until its crown was challenged by the 2009 Abrams movie. Completing the “Spock trilogy,” it continues the ongoing storyline of the films. The film opens on Vulcan, a few months after the end of The Search for Spock, with our gallant crew still on the run from Starfleet (who can't have been looking for them particularly hard, given that they've been hiding out on what is practically the Federation's second capital world). We have some time with Spock, his family and civilisation; it's wonderful for the fans to see Jane Wyatt back as Spock's mum Amanda Grayson.The newly resurrected Spock is still learning to be himself, having the relearn not only his everyday skills but the emotional epiphany he achieved way back in The Motion Picture. The film references its two immediate predecessors heavily in its opening scene, although it does commit a major sin by parking Saavik, robbing us of the trilogy's strongest new character. (Fan lore and allegedly the early drafts have it that Saavik remains on Vulcan because she is pregnant with Spock's child, a fascinating avenue for storytelling which unfortunately is nowhere on screen.) Saavik is unceremoniously dropped from the crew, staying behind on Vulcan without any consideration of how the previous film's events may have affected her.
