Bullet Train - A Movie Review. Top Story - August 2022.
From the way I look at this situation, maybe it’s good luck that we missed the train. Riding into theaters in 2022, Bullet Train centers around five assassins onboard a fast-moving bullet train. They soon learn that their missions have something in common.

Lessons From Turkish Drama. Top Story - August 2022.
They say when you tell one lie, you tell a thousand more to make that one true. This is Ada's hilarious story in Baht Oyunu (Twist of Fate/Game of Destiny). She comes from a family history where it is erroneously believed that a woman who does not marry her first love will be unhappy for the rest of her life. When this does not work out, Ada believes herself doomed for life and puts plans in motion to win back her first love who has moved on. Of course, this throws up unintended consequences and is a harbinger of much confusion.

The 10 Worst Films of 2002 (according to the critics). Top Story - August 2022.
The world of 2002 was mostly dominated by the aftermath of the attacks on September 11 2001 and the resulting War on Terror, but the year also contained several future echoes of the world we currently live in. Queen Elizabeth II celebrated her Golden Jubilee, commemorating 50 years as the the Queen of the United Kingdom and the head of the Commonwealth. The Euro became the new standard currency for 19 different European countries including France, Germany, Spain, Ireland, Italy and Greece. On the other side of the world, while Japan and South Korea became the first Asian countries to host the FIFA World Cup, China was troubled by SARS, a virus which would eventually infect 8,000 people from 29 different countries, causing 774 deaths.

Hemingway is misunderstood. Top Story - August 2022.
Hemingway's writing may feel a little dated by today's standards, but it is iconic. His novels changed the nature of fiction. Somewhat ironically, he's misunderstood and seldom read these days, but there's much he can teach us about the art of writing.

Live action Pinocchio coming to Disney+ in Sept. Top Story - August 2022.
How has Disney’s track record been with live-action remakes lately? Little sub-par ya thinking? What was the last one, Cruella, I think? Definitely, not the worst but kinda felt like too much of its own thing to really be considered the same character we knew from Disney if you ask me. But i guess they had to do something different cause they already had those two live-action “101 Dalmatians” movies.
