We have been waiting a long, long time to see Kim Burgess (Marina Squerciati) and Adam Ruzek (Patrick John Flueger) get married. They have had a very bumpy road to the altar, but they have persevered, and we couldn't be happier for them. Unfortunately, a lot of the friends they've made along the way have left Chicago Pd.

Chicago Fire and Chicago Med have proven that weddings are as good a reason as any to bring back beloved characters. We saw Matt Casey (Jesse Spencer) return in order to serve as the best man for his buddy, Kelly Severide (Taylor Kinney), on Fire, and we're hoping Chicago Pd uses their big union to do something similar. These are the characters we have on our fantasy guest list.

In November 2021, Netflix ventured into a brand-new medium—gaming. While it had previously experimented with game production and distribution, it had never launched games within its own ecosystem. Fast-forward nearly four years, and Netflix’s gaming library has expanded to over 100 mobile titles and more than a dozen on its cloud gaming platform. However, as we’ve been reporting, things are changing. So, where is Netflix Games headed next, and what does the data reveal?

Over the past six months, Netflix Games has made headlines, but not always for the right reasons. It all started with the closure of a major Aaa studio and then the news that they’re pushing into AI gaming (which went down like a plate of cold sick). Then, in December, Netflix removed over a dozen titles from its catalog. January brought more disappointing news as Netflix canceled several upcoming games,...

To many, Roblox is a gaming platform mainly populated by children. To some companies, however, Roblox is an opportunity to reach a young audience in the space where they hang out the most, within the "metaverse." In recent years, companies have started investing in this future generation of spenders and building their brands from within the gaming platform.

Some names on Roblox make sense, like the adorable and successful My Hello Kitty Cafe and Gamefam's well-made Sonic Speed Simulator, both of which are officially licensed games. Other brands appearing on Roblox are more surprising, offering experiences to the kids playing Roblox that introduce them to luxury clothing and cosmetic brands, potential future career choices, and even cars. Ironically, most of these games don't catch on with the kids on Roblox, but their very existence as official company-sponsored experiences is certainly surprising.

Roger Ebert was an authoritative voice on all things film and never shied away from letting moviegoers know his opinion. Not only was he one of the critics who helped pave the way for such critical aggregators as Rotten Tomatoes, but he was also the main source for critique on films for decades before critical aggregators existed.

As much as Ebert is known for his infamous thumbs-down for bad movies, he is just as well known for shouting out the best of the best. In 2012, Ebert shared his picks for the best films of all time.

Casablanca follows Rick Blaine, the nightclub owner of the famed nightclub Rick's Caf Amricain. While working during the heart of the Second World War, he's reunited with an old flame and her husband.

Over the course of his long Hollywood career, the Hollywood actor appeared in a whopping total of 26 John Wayne movies. Between the 1920s and 1970s, legendary movie star John Wayne starred in well over 100 movies, the vast majority being either Westerns or war movies. Based on that, it's no surprise that he would wind up reuniting with some of his former co-stars in another project at some point or another. However, there were some actors in Hollywood that became recurring co-stars and collaborators of Wayne's.

Easily the most high-profile of Wayne's partners in making movies were John Ford and Maureen O'Hara. A celebrated Western icon in his own right, Ford directed several of John Wayne's movies, including Stagecoach, The Quiet Man, and Rio Grande. As for Maureen O'Hara, she was the female lead in five John Wayne movies, each being a standout entry in the actor's filmography. But neither was...

While the influx of new titles in the video game industry is incessant, some of the most worthwhile gaming experiences continue to be classics from decades gone by, including older entries in currently popular series like Pokémon and Grand Theft Auto. It has now been half a century since the commercialization of video games began, and many of the thousands of games released in that time have been important milestones that have pushed the industry forward, while also delighting players around the world.

Some old games are great because they pushed the boundaries of technology, whether through innovative hardware or well optimized software. Others introduced new ways of telling stories, or as great art tends to do, found new ways of representing life in video game format. A truly great game always has a worthwhile lesson that transcends the game itself, influencing other games or even the non-virtual world.

Wiesbaden, Germany – 2nd March 2023.

Belgrade-based Firefly Productions, one of the leading producers of high-end drama in the former Yugoslavia, is launching two new series as part of its slate at this year’s European Film Market.

“The V Effect” is an eight-episode drama series inspired by the real-life case of an actor who commits suicide on stage during a live theater production. After the renowned actor’s death, Inspector Sorga will try to find out whether it was an unfortunate accident, a suicide – or possibly murder.

“Domestic (Violence)” is a six-part true-crime anthology series set in a small town in Serbia. Each story is based on interviews conducted by the Helsinki Committee for Human Rights in Serbia with women who killed their abusers. Series creator Boban Skerlic will direct all six episodes.

Other titles that Firefly will lens in 2022 include “Absolute 100,” a six-episode series based on the hit film by Srdan Golubović, which tells...

“Bad Blood,” an ambitious new Serbian feature film and TV series, has become the first project from the Sarajevo Film Festival’s CineLink Drama co-financing forum to go into production since the event’s establishment in 2016.

Set in the Ottoman Empire of the 19th century, “Bad Blood” is based on the works of renowned Serbian writer Borisav Stankovic and a script written by Yugoslav filmmaker Voja Nanovic in the early 1970s while he was living in New York City and working for ABC Studios as an editor. Belgrade-based This and That Productions is producing.

Spanning four decades in the waning years of the Ottoman Empire, the series chronicles an era beset by major political change and turmoil, when peasants began rising up in strength to the detriment of wealthy merchant families. It follows Trifun, the wealthy leader of the Christian minority, who, while trying to preserve his wealth and power,...

Alec Baldwin is not going to star as Thomas Wayne in the upcoming Joker origin movie. News recently broke that Baldwin was set to play the father of Bruce Wayne, the young man who ultimately becomes Batman in the DC universe after his parents are gunned down in an alley, in the Warner Bros. production, which has Joaquin Phoenix on board in the title role. Now, in a pretty quick turn of events, Baldwin says that he's no longer doing the movie.

Word of Alec Baldwin bailing on Joker first broke over on Twitter. The actor took to Twitter to declare that he had not been hired to play a role in the movie. Initially, reports indicated that this particular portrayal of Thomas Wayne would see the character as an 80s business Tycoon, similar to Donald Trump during that time period. That was a sticking point in Baldwin's tweet, but...

With the score for “Alias Grace” composer Mychael Danna wanted to “honor the period” in which the story takes place, while at the same time putting a “postmodernist shade” on it. He shared musical duties with his brother Jeff Danna on this Netflix adaptation of Margaret Atwood‘s novel, which has brought the duo an Emmy nomination for Best Movie/Mini Score. Watch our exclusive video interview with the Dannas above.

See 2018 Emmy slugfest: Is Best Limited Series ‘Versace’s’ to lose, and where the heck is ‘Twin Peaks’?

“Alias Grace” revolves around a servant (Sarah Gadon) in 19th century Canada accused of homicide. “We wanted the music to be something that wouldn’t be jarring to the characters onscreen,” explains Mychael. “It’s a very square, controlled period where there are distinct rules and borders for everything, so we wanted the music to have that really square feeling to it,...

French singer France Gall has died. She was 70.

Gall, who owned France’s pop charts for decades and who inspired “My Way,” died Sunday morning in Paris’ American Hospital. Cause of death was a severe infection complicated by cancer, according to her publicist.

Born Isabelle Gall in 1947, she was the daughter of a songwriter who had penned hits for Edith Piaf and Charles Aznavour.

After her first theatre and radio performances, Gall was signed to a record label while still a minor, eventually releasing her first single in October 1963, “Ne Sois Pas Bete,” a French cover of the Laurie Sisters’ “Stand A Little Closer.

There is no studio that times their releases more perfectly than Warner Bros. Around the end-of-year holidays there will be gift sets for films like “Elf” and “Willy Wonka.” Near Valentine’s Day and Mother’s Day, you can expect gift-appropriate releases.

And, of course, they always bring out the war movies and Westerns for Father’s Day in June. This year’s gift idea is a beauty, a massive 40-film, career-spanning set of films starring the legendary John Wayne. From 1932’s “Big Stampede” to 1976’s “The Shootist,” there’s a bit of everything for Wayne fans in here, but more for those who like war movies and Westerns.

Rating: 4.0/5.0

Just because Nick Offerman plays a dad whose son (Melissa & Joey’s Nick Robinson) chooses to run away from home and build a makeshift house in the woods with two friends (Super 8′s Gabriel Basso and Hannah Montana’s Moises Arias) in The Kings of Summer, in theaters today, doesn’t mean the Parks and Recreation actor didn’t bond with his onscreen offspring. “It’s important to me to let young people know that I’m just as big of a jackass, if not more, than they are,” says Offerman. “Because I often play an intimidating or stentorian figure,...

“How come you only show us clips from movies none of us ever heard of?”

She was 30, a single mom who’d admirably gone back to school for a business degree to better things for her and her family. She’d taken my film appreciation class as an elective, a break from the grind of her business classes, expecting it would be – her word – “fun.”

But, due to the aforementioned “movies none of us ever heard of,” she was not having the anticipated fun.

I explained, “Because most movies were made before you were born.”

Simple and obvious, it still didn’t satisfy her, and the unasked next question in her eyes I guessed to be, “But why do we have to see them?”

Most of my class – not all, but most – I knew felt similarly. They didn’t say it but I could tell: rolled eyes, glazed eyes, eyes...
