‘Star Wars’ Finally Explains Where ‘Clone Wars’ Character Is During Original Trilogy

I was scared to rewatch Alien Resurrection. I first saw it when it hit theaters in 1997 and only remember the disappointment. Then, in the years since, it was perpetually at the bottom of any ranking of Alien movies. The prevailing thought, at least in my mind, was that it was bad. But I’d set a goal. I was sticking to it. and by the end of the film, I was smiling ear to ear, happy to have been completely wrong. Well, almost.

Alien Resurrection Is Much Better, and Weirder, Than It Gets Credit For

When you woke up this morning, Christopher Nolan’s film Interstellar was probably the last thing on your mind. However, by the end of Wednesday, fans of the film had gone on a ride worthy of the space travel adventure with an ending that’s equally as happy. It’s coming back to theaters in 70mm IMAX, just a little later than originally expected.

Star Wars loves the trilogy format. In fact, it’s fair to say that George Lucas’ original three films, which came out almost 50 years ago, started an ongoing trend: The Godfather, Indiana Jones, Back to the Future, The Dark Knight, and Scream are just a few examples. But...

Star Trek: Strange New Worlds

Someone at Amazon Prime Video really loves Westerns. Among the new movies on Prime Video in July are classic Westerns, including Shane, A Fistful of Dollars, The Good, the Bad and the Ugly, and El Dorado. But Prime Video isn’t just limited to Westerns, and it has added a very robust selection of movies from the last six decades in this month alone. Modern movie lovers may appreciate Prime Video’s more recent films like Mission: Impossible – Dead Reckoning, Bob Marley: One Love, and Lisa Frankenstein. But for our money, the one Amazon Prime Video movie that you have to watch in July 2024 is the 1985 thriller Witness.

“Generations in the future following Caesar’s reign, apes are living harmoniously as the dominant species — and humans are living in the shadows. As a new tyrannical ape leader builds his empire, one young ape undertakes a harrowing journey that will cause him to question the past and make choices that will define a future for apes and humans alike.”

Some of the most beloved episodes of Star Trek: The Original Series are laugh-out-loud comedies. Although the 1966-1969 series is often lauded for its ahead-of-its-time diversity and heady science fiction concepts, what all of this serious praise leaves out is that Star Trek was really fun, and often, quite funny. In fact, for decades, the most consistently cited fan-favorite episode of them all was David Gerrold’s 1967 romp, “The Trouble With Tribbles.” And when you start looking at some of the bright spots of TOS, more and more comedic episodes start cropping up. From “Shore Leave,” to “I, Mudd,” to “A Piece of the Action,” Star Trek is often hilarious.

Actor Buddy Ebsen, who died at age 95 in 2003, found fame by starring in two of the most popular classic television shows in history: The Beverly Hillbillies (CBS, 1962 to 1971) and Barnaby Jones (CBS, 1973 to 1980). On the Hillbillies, he played former Tennessee country mountain-folk-turned-wealthy Beverly Hills resident Jed Clampett. On Barnaby Jones, he was one of TV's most senior, slyest, health-conscious detectives. Ebsen, however, almost became even more famous for a certain big-screen classic film in which he ultimately did not appear.

Medieval history is a fascinating subject that has understandably inspired the imagination of many great filmmakers. The period between the fall of the Roman Empire and the emergence of the Renaissance art movement was of intense lawlessness in which many great nations waged wars against one another for political, social, and religious reasons. The influence of medieval iconography is seen in some of the most famous movie franchises of all time, including Star Wars and The Lord of the Rings.
