When Collider editor-in-chief Steve Weintraub spoke to Bill & Ted Face the Music director Dean Parisot yesterday, he couldn’t resist asking him about one of Parisot’s earlier projects, the beloved sci-fi comedy Galaxy Quest. Specifically, we wanted to know about the long-rumored Amazon series based on the property, which would have reunited the starry cast (including Tim Allen, Sigourney Weaver, Sam Rockwell and Tony Shalhoub). Last we’d heard the project was stalled following the death of original cast member Alan Rickman. But Parisot provided a lot more information. [caption id="attachment_151125" align="alignright" …
Bleecker Street has released a trailer for The Secrets We Keep, which pairs Swedish superstars Noomi Rapace and Joel Kinnaman, and co-stars Chris Messina and Amy Seimetz. That's a solid cast in my book, but as with most films, my interest is due to the juicy story here, which takes place after World War II. Rapace plays a woman living a quiet life in the suburbs with her husband (Messina) when she recognizes a neighbor (Kinnaman) as a soldier who she believes committed heinous war crimes against her. Seeking vengeance, she kidnaps the man and holds him hostage …
Here’s an actual good surprise for a change: Walt Disney Animation Studios released their stunning VR short “Myth: A Frozen Tale” for at-home viewing on Oculus Quest. Anyone with a headset should watch right now. Acting as a sort of prologue to Disney’s record-breaking animated smash Frozen 2, and narrated by that film’s co-star Evan Rachel Wood, “Myth” immerses you in the world of the film and introduces you to the elemental spirits in a truly unique, spellbinding way. It was directed by Jeff Gipson, the skateboarder poet and one of Walt Disney Animation …
Spoilers ahead for Mythic Quest: Quarantine (as well as Season 1 of the series). These are tough times, and great TV is helping a lot of people cope with them. So, even in quarantine, some shows are finding ways to get to work, at least one episode at a time, and one of them is the deceptively charming Mythic Quest: Raven's Banquet. Today, the Apple TV+ comedy has released a new special episode, entitled "Quarantine," to capture what life is like right now, as we all shelter in place from the invisible yet deadly threat outside. "Quarantine" is a …
There was once a time when actors rarely, if ever, were asked to look into the lens of a camera. But here in the Coronavirus age, we're relying on our screens for human connection, even if it's with a fictional character — and that's something captured with unexpected sweetness and empathy by "Quarantine," the new special episode of Apple TV+'s Mythic Quest: Raven's Banquet. Mythic Quest emerged this year as one of Apple TV+'s strongest offerings (it certainly makes a lot more sense than See, anyway); the workplace comedy about the oddball employees of a …
We tend to think of actors in terms of their overall performance, but the real measuring stick is in the choices they make, be it role to role, scene to scene, or even moment to moment. The divide between good and great lies in those choices. When I think of this rule, the absolute first thing that comes to mind is Tom Hardy's choice to play iconic Batman villain Bane in The Dark Knight Rises like Mr. Monopoly huffing a can of paint thinner. That's just one of the many check marks on the list of reasons why …
Leave it to the delightful nerds over at Mythic Quest: Raven's Banquet to find a way to keep filming during quarantine.

Using iPhones, naturally, for that sweet, sweet Apple synergy. Here's the official synopsis for Mythic Quest: Quarantine: [caption id="attachment_864295" align="alignright" width="360"] Image via Apple[/caption] “Mythic Quest: Quarantine” is a new, half-hour installment that finds the team behind the biggest multiplayer video …
