While it’s obviously not true, the perception that I get from boxing movies is that they’re all more or less the same. That feeling is exemplified in Southpaw, which felt like a movie I’d seen shot-for-shot before, even though it’s been created from an original screenplay written by Kurt Sutter. What it does is hit all the notes you’d expect it to, doesn’t attempt to depart from the tried-and-true path, and is moderately successful at entertaining the audience.
Utter the name “M. Night Shyamalan” and you’ll be met with either excitement or trepidation, depending on whether or not you first time travel to 2002 before doing so. Nowadays, after more than a decade of duds, seeing Shyamalan’s name attached to a movie feels far more like a “stay away” sign than one that says “come hither.” Some people liked The Visit, but I was not among them. I’ve heard good things about Split since it debuted at Fantastic Fest in September, but I was still hesitant to get excited.
The Spielberg/Amblin Influence Is Strong With This One Lucasfilm boss Kathleen Kennedy and executive producer Jon Favreau both previously talked up Star Wars: Skeleton Crew‘s Amblin vibes, and they weren’t overselling things. The trailer makes it abundantly clear just how heavily Skeleton Crew is influenced by the 1980s coming-of-age movies put out by Steven Spielberg’s production company. There are green-lawned suburban streets, school buses and classrooms, and plucky sprogs longing for adventure – all hallmarks of classic Amblin fare.
At this early stage, Star Wars: Skeleton Crew isn’t exactly bursting at the seams with franchise Easter eggs. That said, Skeleton Crew‘s two-episode premiere still sneaks in a few callbacks to wider Star Wars canon – including a nod to one of Rogue One spinoff Andor‘s most important locations: Aldhani.
Star Wars: Skeleton Crew Episode 2’s Andor Reference, Explained Skeleton Crew‘s shout-out to Andor Season 1 arrives early in Episode 2, “Way, Way Out Past the Barrier.

How To Unlock All Clothing in The Legend of Zelda: Echoes of Wisdom As you explore Hyrule, you’ll eventually gain the ability to change your costume. This is only unlocked once you complete the fourth dungeon in the game, Hyrule Castle.

Jabul Ruins Walkthrough Immediately upon entering Jabul Ruins, head north. The floor will give way and you’ll fall into an underwater section. Swim down and move the giant rocks, making sure to keep an eye on your oxygen. After a bit, a large fish will generate a whirlpool, starting an autoscrolling sequence where you have to avoid it. If the path splits, always take the bottom path, as the upper paths will waste your time and have the whirlpool catch up to you, resulting in damage.
Why the Elves Made the Rings of Power in The Lord of the Rings, Explained According to The Lord of the Rings author J.R.R. Tolkien, the Elves created the Rings of Power to conserve, not conquer. As Middle-earth’s Second Age went on, its pointy-eared inhabitants clocked that the world around them was growing “weary.” The Elves were feeling a bit tired themselves, as well; many opted to bail on Middle-earth for the Undying Lands across the sea.
The Peanuts Movie reminds us of how enduring and iconic its series’ characters are. From the moment the film begins, we know exactly who most of these people are and what their shtick is. Even for those in the audience not intimately familiar with the series – you may have caught a couple of the Peanuts specials on TV, but were never fully invested in the property – you feel right at home as soon as Schroeder (Noah Johnston) starts playing his piano or Lucy (Hadley Belle Miller) sets up her curbside psychiatric help stand.

But the basic idea is survival, when the options are sprinting away down disorientating and claustrophobic corridors or repeatedly applying stick to face. These encounters are also representative of the System Shock remake’s demo as a whole, caught as it is somewhere between the long shadow of the original System Shock and the various spiritual successors, sequel, imitators, and borrowers that followed and refined its legacy. On one hand, the mutants recall the ghoulish plate-eyed abominations from the 1994 original – as do the Borg-like cyborgs, the robots, and the garishly ’80s cyberpunk surroundings.
With all that in mind, though, it’s been heartwarming to see his daughters rally around him, as shown in their photos on Instagram. In particular, Tallulah Willis has taken to Instagram with a photo of Willis and his two daughters on Thanksgiving Day, which you can check out down below.

I agree, life is not about getting the most amount of money but getting enough to make what you want possible and to support yourself while you are at it. There’s something about being able to go into work every day and not want to bash your head against the radiator. If he’s able to support his family and continue his endeavors props to him. – Art Axiv The apparent ‘get a game design/art/CS degree then start applying for jobs’ path is an illusion.
The guy who was almost Paul McCartney, got turned into a zombie, and was shot in the unmentionables with a paintball gun wielded by Simon Pegg, is one of the voices in the upcoming Assassin’s Creed game. Still don’t know who he is? He’s done voice for Darth Chef and Darth Maul – there, should be obvious now, it’s Peter Serafinowicz, he of Spaced and Shaun of the Dead. No word yet on who he plays, but he is a Brit, and it’s Assassin’s Creed, so odds are you’ll get to stab him at some point.
