Critical Thinking: Don’t Believe the Hype
Anghus Houvouras on hype and hyperbole… Hype is something every film writer constantly struggles with. The perpetual entertainment news cycle gives film fans so much to chew on. There’s a formulaic cycle of hype that happens with every new movie that strokes the cockles of film fans. Some movies come with preordained hype. A new […]

Rian Johnson slightly changed the ending of Star Wars: The Force Awakens, discusses Luke’s exile
As the director of Star Wars: The Last Jedi, Rian Johnson obviously holds a lot of sway with the Star Wars franchise, and it seems this extended to some input in J.J.

Neil Calloway takes aim at those getting worked up over a slight change in make up… I’m a huge Star Wars fan; I love the films, I’ve been known to defend elements of the prequels, and I’ll not really trust anyone who proudly boasts that they’ve never seen any of the films. Having said that, […]
