2019's First Movie Release 'Eli' Is Inspiring Fans
With 2019 right around the corner, I thought I would get a jump on researching and preparing for the first new movies of the new year. January is not traditionally a time when we see many quality movies. Most of the time, we are seeing the dregs of the Hollywood studios, the films that have languished on shelves for months and years at a time or movies that the studios know cannot compete in the more crowded portions of the year.

Kubrick: Nihilistic or Hopeful?
In this article, I will argue that director Stanley Kubrick added nihilistic tendencies to many of his movies, whether purposefully or not. Nihilism is a vast subject, but the main premise is having “life without objective meaning, purpose, or intrinsic value; total rejection of established laws and institutions.” This is seen in A Clockwork Orange, Dr. Strangelove or How I Learned to Stop Worrying and Love the Bomb, and The Shining, along with some other movies. I will begin by explaining how A Clockwork Orange contains nihilistic ideas. Then, how Dr. Strangelove shows worldwide nihilism. Next, The Shining’s family and self-nihilistic destruction patterns. Finally, I will include a small paragraph on some of Kubrick’s other films containing nihilistic ideas. This article will show that many of Kubrick’s movies contain nihilism in its different forms.

Most Iconic Kisses of Cinema History
This passionate kiss between Noah and Ally will forever be recognized as one of the most iconic kisses in film history. The rain flooding down in drowning torrents, that sensual embrace....this kiss was also unique because it was the climax of the characters' relationship.

After the Live Action 'Lion King,' Reboots Need to Stop
When I heard that there would be a live action Lion King staring Beyonce and Donald Glover, I was just as excited as the next person. Donald Glover is an incredible artist and is incredibly versatile in both his acting and music; he balances the non-toxic masculinity, chivalry, and openness that a character like Simba has. And of course, Beyonce is a Queen, just like Nala.

Why 'Black Panther’s' T’Challa Is Poised to Become the Most Lucrative Superhero Ever
The original film permanently changed the game, grossing over $700 million domestically and becoming the third-highest-grossing film released to date in the U.S. and Canada. Though that figure is unadjusted for inflation, ponder this: on an adjusted basis, the film places #30 of all time.
