Genre fans know it's always a good idea to keep an eye on the festival hits, because you never know which indie debut is going to end up being the surprise that knocks your socks off. Today, we've got an exclusive trailer debut for Minor Premise, a new sci-fi thriller that's been racking up acclaim on the festival circuit for its clever concept, engaging execution, and strong performances -- especially from Sathya Sridharan, who takes on the challenge of playing ten versions of a scientist after an experiment to create the best version of himself goes off …
This Netflix thriller could have turned out very differently if one simple change was made.
We’ve got the exclusive debut of the trailer for Robert Schwartzman’s upcoming film The Argument, in virtual theaters and on demand September 4, and it looks like a refreshingly bizarre take on romantic comedy tropes. The movie stars Dan Fogler and Emma Bell as Jack and Lisa, a couple who get into an argument in the middle of a get-together with a group of their friends. Rather than squash the conflict or agree to disagree and move on, the two decide that the only way to resolve the dispute is to recreate the exact events of the …

What would have happened if diversity was introduced in the Golden Age of Hollywood? While we will never actually know, Ryan Murphy and Ian Brennan attempt to answer the question in their Netflix limited series, Hollywood, which is like a What If…? comic book about Hollywood in the 1940s. The series takes real people like Rock Hudson, Anna May Wong, and Vivian Leigh and combines them with fictionalized aspiring actors and filmmakers who are willing to do whatever it takes to make Hollywood look at every person as equal, no matter their race or sexual orientation. Also, unlike some of …
I had Minority Report wrong. When you look at it in the context of Steven Spielberg's overall filmography, the film's ending seems like it follows in the footsteps of movies like Schindler's List, Saving Private Ryan, and even A.I. Artificial Intelligence (some view the ending as bleak, but Spielberg says its happier conclusion is where he and Stanley Kubrick wanted to take it). Spielberg is a director who doesn't really go for ambiguous endings and wants to give the audience a feeling of hope even in the face of humanity's darkest impulses, and so …

With Supernatural's final season set to start during October 2019, which minor characters deserve to make one final appearance?
Maybe the pre-cogs should have told him to grab some Pedialyte, Ibuprofen and a banana before heading to set.
This minor Endgame moment Is actually pretty major. (SPOILERS!)
Be warned there are MASSIVE SPOILERS for The Magicians Season 4 finale. If you haven't watched it, turn back now. Seriously. Last chance. Ok, first thing's first. Let's all take some deep breaths and a moment to group hug this one out, and maybe break into a little mournful musical number, because holy shit. Quentin Coldwater is dead. Really dead. As in, Jason Ralph is leaving the show dead. After four seasons of extraordinary work, imbuing Quentin with pathos, charm, and layers well-beyond the trope of the handsome-but-troubled hero, Ralph said goodbye to The …
Not everyone in Westeros has the wealth, title or lineage to make them a viable contender for the Iron Throne. But, having a poor -- or controversial -- background never stopped anyone from playing Game of Thrones' great game. Epic moments for the show's main heroes (and major villains) have always happened with help, and often the assist has come from a minor but essential character. Without Myranda (Ramsay Bolton's girlfriend), Theon Greyjoy wouldn't have had his hero moment and helped Sansa Stark escape. There would be no dragons on the show if not for Illyrio Mopatis' wedding gift …
