Selling Toys Is No Reason To Make A Sequel

June 4, 2017 by Neil Calloway

Neil Calloway thinks the possibility of a new Power Rangers film is pretty depressing… With the news we may have another Power Rangers movie solely because the last one shifted a load of cheap plastic manufactured for tiny wages in the developing world to people who should know better, it feels like studios have given […]

Tom Cruise And Why Top Gun 2 Should Be Canned

June 18, 2017 by Neil Calloway

Neil Calloway says it’s time Hollywood started saying no to Cruise… It’s a cliché to say success has many fathers while failure is an orphan, but it’s no less true for that. The most recent example of this in Hollywood is everyone disowning The Mummy and blaming its poor box office on star Tom Cruise […]

Disney’s Crazy Star Wars: The Last Jedi Demands Make Sense

November 5, 2017 by Neil Calloway

Neil Calloway understands why Disney are demanding such a high percentage of the box office for the new Star Wars film… Early tracking (though how they work out how much a film is going to make more than a month before it’s out is beyond me) suggests that Star Wars: The Last Jedi will have an […]

King Arthur And Judging Films On Their Opening Weekend

May 21, 2017 by Neil Calloway

Neil Calloway says you shouldn’t judge a film by how much money it makes in its first few days… By now, you’ll have read the “King Arthur is a flop” stories. Digging behind the headlines, however you’ll see that this is based on its opening weekend at the US box office. While grossing $14 million […]

Flickering Myth goes axe throwing with King Arthur

May 23, 2017 by Neil Calloway

To mark the release of King Arthur, Neil Calloway threw some axes… When you think of King Arthur, you don’t immediately think of axe throwing, but the fact is that sword fighting is difficult and trying to retrieve a sword from a stone is, frankly, boring. Whistle Punks offer “Urban Axe Throwing” – the closest, […]

Why Christopher Nolan Must Direct A Bond Film

May 7, 2017 by Neil Calloway

Neil Calloway argues that Britain’s best director must direct Britain’s biggest franchise… So it seems like the news that Syncopy will be producing the next Bond was at best premature and at worst totally untrue. It’s a shame, because the possibility that Christopher Nolan is going to direct a Bond film is too great to […]

Franchises Aren’t Killing Hollywood, Bad Movies Are

May 14, 2017 by Neil Calloway

This week Neil Calloway wants Hollywood to stop blaming franchises for bad box office returns… Recently the Los Angeles Times reported that this summer’s US box office could be the lowest in a decade. This might seem like terrible news, but given that films are expected to earn $4 billion during the summer months it’s […]

When Did Films Start Getting So Long?

April 2, 2017 by Neil Calloway

Neil Calloway wonders why every film has to be so long now… With the  rumour that Justice League is going to clock in at just shy of three hours, it’s time to ask when did movies start getting really long? Of course, there have always been long movies, but back then films came with an […]

Let’s All Admit That Solo: A Star Wars Story Will Be Terrible

December 30, 2017 by Neil Calloway

Neil Calloway isn’t looking forward to one of 2018’s most anticipated movies… It is a dark time for the rebellion. Those words, the first in the opening crawl of The Empire Strikes Back, could apply to the current state of the Star Wars universe. Whatever you think of the films, you have to accept that […]

Five TV Shows and Films That Need Virtual Reality Spin Offs

June 11, 2017 by Neil Calloway

Neil Calloway imagines some projects that you should be able to enjoy in Virtual Reality… This week’s news that Breaking Bad creator Vince Gilligan wants to “do something” involving the show and Virtual Reality may seem odd, but in a world where we want increasing interactivity, it’s not too surprising that familiar properties will want […]
