Steven Spielberg and George Lucas are the two prominent Hollywood names that stand out above the rest. Having said that, with their inventive storytelling and huge hits, they have collectively transformed the movie business. Indeed, these visionaries have a profound impact on the cinematic universe, but when it comes to handling their beloved creations post-release, their paths diverge like a fork in the Yellow Brick Road.

While both directors have created some of history’s most iconic flicks, Spielberg and Lucas take very different approaches when it comes to revisiting their earlier work. The former feels that his films should remain true to the era in which they were made, unlike Lucas, who is renowned for updating and improving his works digitally.

Trouble brews on board the International Space Station as war erupts on Earth. Here’s our I.S.S. review.
Most of my cinematic education came from browsing VHS tapes at the Finnish equivalent of a Blockbuster (it was called FilmTown). I would look at the covers for ages, treating each rental like a choice between life and death.
I.S.S. feels like a film I would have encountered back in the late 90s and early 2000s, and probably picked as well. It’s the kind of mid-budget thriller that rarely makes it to the big screen anymore, so watching I.S.S. in a cinema feels like a small victory in itself.
Ariana DeBose plays Kira Foster, a scientist who’s shuttled up to the International Space Station; the crew on board is made up of three Russians and three Americans.
It’s all going rather well at first, but I.S.S. would be a...

Dakota Fanning’s Marge Sherwood describes Tom Ripley as an untrustworthy liar who takes advantage of people in the official trailer for Netflix’s Ripley. The limited series stars All of Us Strangers‘ Andrew Scott in the titular role and is based on Patricia Highsmith’s popular Tom Ripley novels.
“Tom Ripley (Scott), a grifter scraping by in early 1960s New York, is hired by a wealthy man to travel to Italy to try to convince his vagabond son to return home,” reads Netflix’s synopsis. “Tom’s acceptance of the job is the first step into a complex life of deceit, fraud, and murder.”
In addition to Scott and Fanning, the series stars Johnny Flynn (Lovesick) as Dickie Greenleaf, Eliot Sumner (Pretty Red Dress), Maurizio Lombardi (Monterossi), Margherita Buy (Mia Madre), and two-time Oscar nominee John Malkovich. Oscar winner Steven Zaillian (Schindler’s List) wrote, directed, and executive produced the limited series.

The superhero movie stars Dakota Johnson in the title role, a woman who develops psychic abilities.

Founded in 2008, New York-based production studio and distributor Gkids almost immediately established itself as the United States’ most valuable lifeline to animated cinema from around the world, and so — after earning 12 Oscar nominations for introducing modern classics like “The Tale of the Princess Kaguya” and “Wolfwalkers” to American audiences — it might seem a bit overblown to suggest that the label’s reputation could still hang in the balance of a single dub. Gkids president Dave Jesteadt certainly didn’t expect that to be the case when he formally took the reins in January 2017, as the already thriving company was still on the verge of its greatest triumphs. And yet, by the end of the following month, everything that Gkids had accomplished would seem like a long prologue for the challenge that would ultimately define it.

"There's only room for one alpha dog in this town!" Samuel Goldwyn Films has revealed an official trailer for Dakota, another new dog movie about an ex-service dog who makes some new friends. There's also the other dog movie literally just called Dog playing in theaters now. This next movie centers on Kate, a widow who lost her husband in the war in Afghanistan and is struggling to maintain her small-town farm with her daughter while also running the local volunteer fire department. Dakota, the dog, returns from the war to be with the family and quickly adjusts to her new home, becoming somewhat of a local hero as she settles in. This stars Abbie Cornish, Lola Sultan, Tim Rozon, Patrick Muldoon, Roberto Davide, and Billy Baldwin. This looks like a much cheesier version of Dog, a Hallmark movie special about saving the farm.
