Tears running down his face, the seven-year-old said, "Stop, Daddy! Stop! I can't take it anymore!" Considering the strange holiday line-up that I shared with Toshi and Allen, ages ten and seven, it is little wonder it almost ended in tears. But what kind of tears and why is a little less cut and dry than I might have supposed when this recent run of programming first came together. I've been seeing someone for a little while now, and it's been nice. She's met the boys and they like her tremendously, and vice-versa. The Monday after the film opened, the four of us went to see The Force Awakens together, the second time for the kids, the first time for her, and it was a great evening. They were excited about the film, about the evening out, about Star Wars in general. She was the one who brought up The Star Wars Holiday Special...

“I cannot say enough about how Bob Iger and Alan Horn have understood this thing that is now part of the Disney company. And they’re not trying to Disney-fy it, they’re not doing anything other than, I think, an incredibly smart thing, which is letting Kathleen Kennedy — who is a remarkable person and producer — run and lead Lucasfilm to a place where I think it wants to go. They let us make the movie we wanted to make,” director J.J. Abrams said earlier this month during a one-hour talk (watch below in full), also confirming he has final cut on Star Wars: The Force Awakens.
While that final cut, clocking in at two hours and 16 minutes, is still just under two months away, today brings a new preview. Disney have now released the final trailer for the film, initially premiering on Monday Night Football, along with tickets available worldwide — that is,...

The U.S. Secretary of Energy Ernest Moniz is being compared to “the nation’s Mona Lisa” after last night’s State of the Union Address. Moniz was the talk of the town after he rocked priceless facial expressions and grey hair that simply can’t be duplicated.
Suddenly, his face is dominating your Twitter feed and he’s everybody’s new favorite politician. Maybe it’s because he’s a spitting image of the Quaker Oats guy, or because his mug was the most entertaining part of the Sotu?
Happy to see #BenFranklin is alive and well and was in attendance at the #Sotu tonight. #StateOfTheUnion #SOTU2015 pic.twitter.com/EZwM94bo1A

Swedish director Kjell Sundvall returns to the big screen this December with False Trail (Jägarna 2), the follow-up to his 1996 crime-thriller, The Hunters (Jägarna).
Rolf Lassgård reprises his leading role from the original, alongside the great Peter Stormare, and with the film arriving on our shores next month, we’ve been given an exclusive set of images to share.
“Brought to you by the distributors of The Killing, Borgen and The Bridge, False Trail is the latest Nordic Noir thriller to hit the big screen in the UK. Set in an isolated town in the frozen wastelands of northern Sweden, False Trail is dark, twisted murder investigation that devastates a local community.
It’s been fifteen years since Erik (LASSGÅRD) was forced to leave the Norrland Police Department. Since then he has become the National Murder Commission’s best interrogator. When Erik’s boss orders him back to his home...

If being confused with a baseball player — one Casey Affleck takes a keen interest in — is his biggest problem, Josh Hamilton (Kicking and Screaming) ought to be doing just fine. Things must, in all likelihood, be pretty good for the stage actor, with Variety pegging him as the male lead of Scott Stewart‘s paranormal thriller Dark Skies; Keri Russell, as you might remember, was cast a few weeks back.
In the director’s scare-a-thon, these two comprise a suburban couple who “take matters into their own hands” when aliens invade and target their children. That, right there, is quite familiar to those who’ve encountered any story of this sort, but Variety’s description also throws in something a bit different: promises of “an alien disguised as a human and a boy tagged for abduction.”
If you’re still not convinced by the mixture of loglines and teases, the...
