Sinners is proof original stories can still feel like a must-watch moment. With the WB merger coming, I just hope the new owners keep taking chances on new ideas.

Happy 30th birthday to Florence Pugh. She’s been one of the best parts of Marvel’s newer era, and her work in Thunderbolts is a perfect reminder of how much weight, humor, and heart she brings to every scene.

“He’s not too evil. He’s just shitty enough to feel human. You can see the excuses forming in real time, the little cowardly choices stacking up until he’s in way deeper than he ever planned.”

Do you have a Christmas movie tradition where certain movies have to happen at certain moments?
