TV, contributors, Supergirl (TV show), The CW By Angelica Cabral on Mon,1:33 The beginning of this season of The CW's Supergirl had me rolling my eyes at the comparison between real life immigrants and space aliens. Thankfully, as this season of Supergirl developed, I found the immigration storyline to be full of nuance, and the allegory to be an apt one. News, Department of Homeland Security, kirstjen nielsen, women in politics By Vivian Kane on Mon,1:16 Over the weekend, Donald Trump announced that Homeland Security Secretary Kirstjen Nielsen was resigning. Though as with so many Trump appointees, that resignation is said to have Trump's idea, not hers. Movies, Avengers: Endgame By Rachel Leishman on Mon,12:59 Well, press for Avengers: Endgame is off to the races and already they are causing a ruckus. Which, I guess it is to be expected. What else are they going to talk about on this press tour? A movie that they can't spoil? Movies, Idris Elba, Suicide Squad 2 By Kate Gardner on Mon,12:16 Elba will not be taking over the Deadshot mantle from Will Smith, but will be playing a new character in the Suicide Squad sequel. The question is: who? Movies, Beyoncé, Coachella, Netflix By Kaila Hale-Stern on Mon,11:51 Netflix is dropping 'Homecoming: A Film by Beyoncé' on April 17th, and the official trailer just sent shivers down my spine. AMP Featured, Movies, Avengers: Endgame By Rachel Leishman on Mon,11:25 CinemaCon is delivering for us Marvel fans. With footage being shown to the audience, we're hearing more and more about what to expect out of Avengers: Endgame, but opening with "Dear Mr. Fantasy" is a low blow, even for the Russo brothers. TV, Killing Eve, Sandra Oh, things we saw today By Chelsea Steiner on Sun,5:53 There's a lot of pop culture premieres to look forward to in 2019, and right at the top of that list is season two of BBC America's Killing Eve. Movies, David Harbour, Hellboy, Hellboy 3 By Chelsea Steiner on Sun,4:45 Unlike Guillermo del Toro's previous entries, this new Hellboyis rated R, and it makes the most of that rating in this blood-soaked sizzle reel. AMP Featured, TV, Drew Barrymore, Santa Clarita Diet, Timothy Olyphant By Chelsea Steiner on Sun,3:47 When we see marriage portrayed in a half-hour comedy, it is usually the subject of well-worn cliches. TV, Game of Thrones, Kit Harington, snl By Chelsea Steiner on Sun,1:41 It's no surprise that SNL would throw him into a Game of Thrones sketch, but Harington played a small part in what was a pretty extensive spoof of GOT spin-offs, sequels, and reboots. |
