Anthony Daniels believes George Lucas should have won an Oscar for his work on the Star Wars films. For years, the Academy’s had a perceived bias against popular genre movies, mainly relegating them to the various technical categories like visual effects and production design. There have been a few blockbusters that have broken through (most recently Black Panther last year), but it remains an uphill struggle for these types of films....

Examining race relations through the lens of a horror film is not exactly a common thing, but it’s been done a good number of times over the years. Many would be quick to cite George Romero’s seminal Night of the Living Dead as one of the earliest examples, which featured a heroic black lead pitted against a stubborn older white man, in a time when black leading men were quite rare....

One of the most popular sitcoms to come out of ABC’s TGIF era, Boy Meets World managed to last for 7 successful seasons, premiering in 1993 and signing off in 2000. Like fellow TGIF alumni Full House, BMW has only grown its fanbase in the time since it ended, both through TV reruns and DVD/digital releases. As such, it’s not too surprising that BMW revival series Girl Meets World was one of the first projects to kick off the current wave of resurrected and/or rebooted TV shows....

First, let’s see how it works. It’s actually quite a simple concept. It takes info women publish on FourSquare and pairs it with what they have on their Facebook profile. The app’s official website says it “scans your surroundings and helps you find out where girls or guys are hanging out. You can also see the ratio of girls to guys in different places around you.” Voila! Stalker’s paradise. The user knows where he can, basically, go and pick up women....

Depending on when you first watched Gilmore Girls your opinion on Emily Gilmore may have evolved over the years. Sometimes the show paints her as the villain and frequent antagonist in the lives of Rory and Lorelai. Lorelai would especially have you believe that Emily Gilmore is evil, at least during the early seasons of the series. But when watching the show now it’s easier to understand what Emily’s motives were for certain choices she made....

This CPU runs up to 28W and is yet to ship in any product, so it would represent a modern update to Apple’s MacBook Pro line....

On his podcast “I Am All In,” Scott Patterson shared that he didn’t enjoy a scene when the other characters were staring at and talking about Luke Danes’s butt. Patterson said, “It’s as disgusting for women to objectify men as it for men to objectify women and it’s as harmful....

The 2020 Golden Globes had several surprising snubs. Hosted by the Hollywood Foreign Press and MC’d once again by Ricky Gervais, the Golden Globes are widely recognized as the jumping-off point for the awards season. That being said, their relevance in predicting the winners of the remaining awards shows is largely contested; and given the fact that none of the fantastic female film directors this year, including (but not limited to) Greta Gerwig (Little Women), Lulu Wang (The Farewell), and Céline Sciamma (Portrait of a Lady on Fire), were even nominated, 2020 already had some major snubs before the show even started....
