There[...]

Awards season is drawing to a close, and the Oscars are right around the corner Taking place this year on Sunday March 4th, it seems like the Academy is attempting to be more inclusive with their show this year — at least when it comes to the presenters list.

Amour's Michael Haneke is taking his turn at television, with the Oscar and Palme d’Or-winning director and screenwriter teaming with FremantleMedia’s UFA Fiction on the futuristic drama Kelvin's Book.

How about a little break from the alternative facts of the day, hm? What's among your favorites this year -- I mean, besides Deadpool, of course. Arrival?

Veteran comic book writer Fabian Nicieza hit the Liefeld lottery when he joined superstar artist Sir Robert Liefeld on creating Deadpool instead of a janitor However, it seems that Nicieza and the Merc with a Mouth[...]

Last year we had the OscarSowhite rhetoric … This year seems to be different We have all these films like Moonlight, Birth Of A Nation … The politics that happen during this time is always interesting There are discussions like Manchester By The Sea may be interesting to some people, but it's not inclusive or[...]
