The Tear-Jerking Avengers: Infinity War Line You Didn’t Know Was Improvised “Avengers: Infinity War” is a movie that needs no introduction. The first of a two-part conclusion, the film was a culmination of everything we had seen up to that point in the Marvel Cinematic Universe. It did not possess the emotional weight that “Avengers: Endgame” did, but still, the ending moments of the film didn’t pull any punches. Just when you think Thor (Chris Hemsworth) had put an end (or an ax) into Thanos' (Josh Brolin) dreams of galactic genocide, he is proven unsuccessful and the purple-skinned warlord snaps, scattering half of the universe’s population to dust....

Visual Effects Master Ray Harryhausen Has Died At 92 Stop-motion effects pioneerRay Harryhausendied today, with his passing confirmed by his family. The filmmaker, who retired from features in 1981, leaves behind a relatively small but incalculably influential body of work. In films produced between 1955 and 1981 his stop-motion animated skeletons, dinosaurs, and other beasts almost universally became icons of sci-fi and fantasy filmmaking. Though he hasn’t worked in features for over thirty years, echoes of his work continue to resound today....

Watch The Best Scene In The New ‘Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles’ Movie In my recent review ofJonathan Liebesman’sTeenage Mutant Ninja Turtles, I said the following: There’s one fantastic scene of the four Turtles. Together in an elevator, they start beat-boxing. It’s dumb, but also funny and charming. That’s what this movie is missing. And I’d like to think Paramount listened to me, because that scene is now online. It’s the perfect juxtaposition of what’s right, and what’s wrong with the film....

Yennefer’s Motherhood Storyline In The Witcher Isn’t Sexist — It’s Empowering Not too long ago, I binge-watched Netflix’s"The Witcher,“a fantasy series based on the books by Andrzej Sapkowski and starring Henry Cavill in the titular role.
