Bohemian Rhapsodyhas paid its dues of terrible reviews,timeaftertime, and former directorBryan Singerhas done no sentence despite (allegedly) committing several crimes. And bad mistakes, the script made a few. It’s pretty fair to sayBohemian Rhapsodyhas had its share of sand kicked in its face, but it’s come through…with a $18.4 million Friday box office, on track for a well-above-expectations $45 million. The film—which stars of-hoodedMr. RobotactorRami Malekas Queen frontman Freddie Mercury—has had a less rockin' and more rocky road to the big-screen, withFox firing Singeras director with just a few weeks left in production....

Spoilersahead if you aren’t caught up onGame of Thrones. Goodly LiverpudlianJoe Dempsieis one of only a handful of supporting characters to have survived the game of thrones on HBO’s titular drama, having played Gendry since the series' fourth episode. That’s a long time to survive in this ruthless world of cutthroat kings, dragons, and wights. But while the bulk of Gendry’s journey occurred off screen, the latest episode just gave the survivor quite the upgrade in terms of status, power, and even heredity....

Timed to the holidays, HBO Home Entertainment has releasedGame of Thrones: The Complete Serieson Blu-ray. But in addition to the standard Blu-ray box set, HBO Home Entertainment hasalsoreleasedGame of Thrones: The Complete Collection, which is one of the most beautiful Blu-ray box sets I’ve ever laid eyes on. Packaged in a visually striking wooden shadow box case (complete with knife cuts here and there for good measure), the individual seasons are actually panels that make up a beautiful scene inside crafted byRobert Ball, with each season focused on a different moment from the show....

George A. Romerois a stone-cold legend who almost singlehandedly created a horror subgenre that is,as you may see, still going strong today. So it’d probably be a pretty big deal if someone just, like, unearthed the filmmaker’s lost and mostly unseen filmThe Amusement Parkand streamed it for the first time in history. Anyway, that exact thing is happening: Horror streamer Shudder announced today it has acquired the rights toThe Amusement Parkand will present a copy restored in 4k this summer....

James Gunnis the master of hiding Easter eggs in his Marvel movies; as far as I know, there’s still one inGuardians of the Galaxythat hasn’t been discovered yet. Audiences found more of the same in this year’s hit,Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 2, but as Gunn himself reveals, not all of the Marvel comics references made their way into the final film. Taking to Facebook today, Gunn shared a number of shots of various storefronts created for the set ofGotGV2, with signage that pays homage to a number of Marvel and comic book greats....

A new trailer for Sony Pictures Animation’sHotel Transylvania 3has arrived just in time to make your summer vacation plans! Subtitled “Summer Vacation”, this story takesAdam Sandler’s fan-favorite Dracula character on an ocean-going cruise along with his closest family and friends. The twist here is that Drac is feeling a little lonely despite the many monstrous companions that join him on this journey and he’s looking for a little companionship.

The set-up has been given, but the question remains: WillThe People’s Jokerbecome a punchline? Earlier today, Toronto International Film Festival attendees were shocked to discover that the unlicensed movie that features one of DC Comics’ most famous villains was pulled from the lineup “due to rights issues”.

Colin Trevorrow’s 2015 smash sci-fi filmJurassic Worldmay have returned genetically engineered dinosaurs to the big screen in a big way, but its title belied the relatively confined setting for the thriller. The 1993 original film,Jurassic Park, was also kept within the bounds of its title theme park, though the sequelThe Lost Worldtook dinosaurs off the island and into an unprepared civilization. It’s looking like theJurassic Worldsequel might follow the same course, but with more of a metaphor in mind than the previous spectacle-centered sequel....
