It's always hard for everyone involved with a project to see it repeatedly delayed, but for The New Mutants and Blu Hunt, it was another level of, well, irritating. The "will it/won't it" nature of the business and the fact that this troubled production is so public it's very hard to avoid. The movie is finally out […]
The New Mutants finally made it to the big screen this weekend after three long years and many delays for a bunch of different reasons. The movie is looking to bring in around $8 million its opening weekend, which at any other time would have been terrible, but we're in a pandemic, so it's all […]
Joss Whedon has been very open about the debt Buffy The Vampire Slayer owed to the X-Men, including Kitty Pryde, the New Mutants and the X-Men: Dark Phoenix storyline.

Before he was directing The New Mutants or The Stand director Josh Boone brought to life a New York Times bestseller by John Green called The Fault in Our Stars in 2014. On a budget of a mere $12 million dollars, it went on to make over $300 million at the worldwide box office. We got the chance to […]

The New Mutants has had a rough ride getting to the big screen. Three years ago this month, they started shooting, and now the movie is finally getting released.

Another movie runs the hell away from 2020 today. The movie industry is trying to get back on its feet at the moment but things are still a mess when it comes to the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic. There haven't been any major releases at the box office domestically since March and while studios are looking […]
Looks it's really happening folks! The New Mutants has had a rough ride to the big screen and it seems kind of surreal that the movie is finally coming out. Disney and 20th Century Studios have started the final marketing push for the movie as we move into the final week and that means a lot […]

The first Kingsman movie was sort of lightning in a bottle. It came out the same weekend as Fifty Shades of Grey and had no chance of winning the opening weekend. However, Fox and the people involved didn't seem keen to win and instead budgeted the movie, so it turned a profit. While Fifty Shades of Grey […]
It's hard to question the moves of Disney in their infinite wisdom since they built such a multi-billion dollar enterprise with Marvel and Lucasfilm and continue to consume everyone's childhood one franchise at a time. So why is it when Disney bought Fox, they became so pedestrian when it came to their Marvel-owned IP, namely […]
X-Men fans flocked to theaters to see the merry mutants on the big screen for the first time in 2000, and along with Blade ushered in the superhero movie age with a bang.

One of the highlights of X-Men: Apocalypse (2016) is seeing a dedicated, serious take on Psylocke, an anti-hero who's the occasional member of the team, but in the Fox, incarnation allied with Apocalypse (Oscar Isaac). The 2016 version of Psylocke, played by Olivia Munn, retains her more traditional comic look and assassin background. This was […]
When the first trailer for The New Mutants dropped approximately a decade ago [or in October 2017] it looked like something completely different from anything we had seen in the X-Men movies so far. It was one of the reasons people were looking forward to the movie; the X-Men series had been jogging in place since 1999, […]
It's no secret how Ryan Reynolds gained the most significant boost of his acting career in 2016's Deadpool.
