Martin For all the hype and buzzGame of Thronesgets, it’s a little surprising to realize how little of our time we spend actually watching the show.

If Zack Snyder Made More ‘Justice League’ Movies, Superman And Lois Lane’s Child Would Have Become The New Batman Zack Snyder’s Justice Leagueis finally available to watch on HBO Max, and while it seems next to impossible that Snyder will be able to complete his larger vision for a planned five-film arc that would have includedMan of Steel,Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice,Justice League,Justice League 2, andJustice League 3, that’s not stopping people from asking the director about his plans for what would have happened in those sequels....

Is ‘We Bought A Zoo’ A Return To Form For Cameron Crowe? When an audience sits down for aCameron Crowemovie they have certain expectations. An amazing soundtrack; well-rounded, relateable characters; and a heartwarming, interesting story filled with clever, thoughtful dialogue. We’ve seen these things in Crowe’s most beloved films:Say Anything, Jerry MaguireandAlmost Famous.
