Is Cinema Really Dead If Scorsese Says It Is?

January 22, 2017 by Henry Bevan

Henry Bevan on whether cinema is really dead… The ‘cinema is dead’ narrative has gone around for a while. It is normally spouted by some blogger who wants to get across their “hot take”.

The Ridiculous Notion That Batman Never Kills

May 3, 2019 by Anghus Houvouras

Anghus Houvouras on Batman and the “no kill” policy… At this point in my career, I’ve spent a few hundred thousand words devoted to analyzing movies and television and the fevered hyperbole of fandom that encompasses it.

January 30, 2019 by Anghus Houvouras

Anghus Houvouras on blockbusters and Best Picture… Before I opine on blockbusters as Best Picture nominees, allow me to vent: Award season is the absolute worst, especially if you consider yourself a true lover of cinema.
