@LukeCustardtv Of course. Anything for The Custard TV.

Growing up in my teen years, I'd avidly buy Empire, Film Review, and Total Film. The opinions, the knowledge, and the education you'd get from brilliantly written film magazines were invaluable. This is such sad news, and the newsstands will be a lesser place without it.

[Total Film @totalfilm]

Gladiator II is on the cover of Total Film’s upcoming issue 356, which hits print and digital newsstands on October 10. It’s with a heavy heart that we announce that this will be the final issue of the print magazine.

We like to think that this final print edition is a showcase of everything that Total Film magazine strived for, with a thrilling blockbuster on the cover, A-list interviews, fair and impartial reviews, smaller interesting movies nestled alongside the more mainstream fare, and above all else a passion for cinema radiating out of every page.

In the cover feature, we’re talking to Ridley Scott, Paul Mescal, Denzel Washington and more about returning to the Colosseum for Gladiator II. From epic set pieces, to Scott’s unique approach to shooting, to Maximus’ legacy, it’s the perfect primer to this autumn’s most anticipated sequel.

Print subscribers will receive their issue with an exclusive cover shortly (and our subscriptions team will be in touch shortly to discuss next steps).

So for now, it only leaves us to say a huge thank you to all the staff, writers, designers and photographers who made Total Film print magazine what it was over the past 27 years. And we’d also like to express our endless gratitude to everyone who has read, subscribed to or otherwise supported the magazine.

While the magazine itself is going away, our archive content and expert movie and TV writing will continue to live on at https://t.co/fE69ZjtoCI.

Wasteland. Kevin Williamson's post - Dawson's Creek creation featuring a pre-Rizolli & Isles Sasha Alexander. 13 episodes, only 3 aired in the US, was given a graveyard slot on Irish television.

Post a TV show that you're the only person you think remembers it exists

[Eamon @EamonTHennedy]

@XF_lostepisodes I'm with you on 8. It felt refreshed, and I enjoyed the series swinging back to a darker energy similar to what it did in season 2.

[Eamon @EamonTHennedy]

For all the flack that seasons 7-11 get, and how 8 and 9 suffered without David Duchovny, there's still some magnificently produced television horror to be found. Roadrunners, Via Negativa, Audrey Pauley, Hellbound, to name a few.

[Ben Schouten @BenGSchout]

X-Files is kinda weird because even though there's very obviously a golden age and a pretty noticeable decline, if you pick just a random episode from any season you have pretty even odds that you'll have a good time

What’s your favorite “oh wow they’re actually doing this.” Moment from a movie or tv show.

[Eamon @EamonTHennedy]

Point Horror books. Probably one of my biggest gateways into horror at a young age. I loved reading these and buying them was always an event.

[Eamon @EamonTHennedy]

The stupidest thing to have to apologise for, let's be honest.

[The Hollywood Reporter @THR]

Jamie Lee Curtis has reached out to Marvel Studios president Kevin Feige and vowed to choose her words about the MCU more carefully. https://t.co/p5l9diWRwB

[Eamon @EamonTHennedy]

@ChrisHewitt Could an argument be made that a large part of the emotions from these scenes are coming not just from the death of the characters but from seeing these actors saying goodbye to their time in their respective franchises, though, and coming back somewhat negates it?

[DiscussingFilm @DiscussingFilm]

The reveal of Robert Downey Jr as Doctor Doom.

[Eamon @EamonTHennedy]

#Longlegs feels like a cross between a Stanley Kubrick-directed serial killer thriller from the 90s and an episode of Chris Carter's Millennium. Suffice to say I liked it.

[Eamon @EamonTHennedy]

It's lovely to see some positivity for this season. I really enjoyed it. This episode in particular was mesmerizing.

[Eamon @EamonTHennedy]

I think many have forgotten how fun and experimental storytelling on television should be. I love a great serialized show, but I miss when they took creative detours. Could you imagine The Sopranos without Pine Barrens?

[Vulture @vulture]

The ‘Lost’ episodes you can safely ignore during your Netflix rewatch, as they lack character growth, mythology, plot development, or supernatural activity. https://t.co/8cSJKeNZ0Q

[Eamon @EamonTHennedy]

To say my jaw was on the floor when I first watched this back when it premiered would be an understatement.

[Maria🇵🇸 @mariaaviews]

Every day is a good day to post this scene. John Locke one of the most iconic characters of all time

[Eamon @EamonTHennedy]

My reaction upon learning that we're getting the new #Nosferatu for Christmas.

[Eamon @EamonTHennedy]

Happy 40th Anniversary to two of my all-time favorites and my gateway into the horror genre. #Gremlins #Ghostbusters

[Eamon @EamonTHennedy]

@AlrightOldSport Didn't think I would want another Exorcist movie. Now they have my attention.

[Eamon @EamonTHennedy]

When you spend your day off binge-watching all the Mad Max movies. #MadMax #Furiosa

[Eamon @EamonTHennedy]

A reminder that Babe: Pig in the City is an absolutely insanely dark sequel to its predecessor and is weirdly all the better for it.

[Hit Factory @HitFactoryPod]

i love that george miller figures out a way to do a scene like this in every movie he makes.

[Eamon @EamonTHennedy]

I really liked the movie, but the relatively sizeable audience that was also at the screening I went to on Thursday night was pretty muted upon leaving. #furiosa

[Variety @Variety]

#Furiosa is off to a slow start at the box office.

The "Mad Max" prequel earned $10.2 million across Friday and preview screenings. https://t.co/UrVY5ycQrM
