Ari Aster Unmasks a Nation in Collapse Coming off the surreal chaos of Beau Is Afraid, writer-director Ari Aster returns with Eddington, a deeply provocative, deliberately uncomfortable satire-thriller set in a fictional New Mexico town during the COVID-19 pandemic. Clocking in at 2 hours and 25 minutes, this slow-burning social pressure cooker finds Aster diving headfirst into the cultural war zone of 2020s America—and dragging the audience down with him. Eddington isn’t horror in the traditional sense, but it is horrifying. Not because of ghosts or slashers, but because of how close it all hits home. It’s the Thanksgiving argument…

Xenopurge, developed by Traptics and published by Firesquid, is a bold, genre-blending tactical auto-battler that swaps twitch reflexes for cold, calculated decision-making. Launching in Early Access on July 11, 2025, this game drops you not onto the battlefield, but into the nerve-racking role of a remote commander—more Lt. Gorman from Aliens than Master Chief. It’s a game about planning, indirect control, and watching your little blue squad icons survive (or not) as red Xeno blips close in. If that sounds stressful, it is. And if that sounds compelling, welcome to your next obsession. You’re in Charge, but Not in Control…

James Gunn’s Superman isn’t the film many fans were expecting, but it is undeniably his version. In his attempt to kickstart the new DC Universe, Gunn has delivered a Superman movie that’s colorful, human, and oddly punk rock—but also messy, overcrowded, and frustrating in ways that can’t be ignored. This isn’t the gritty realism of Man of Steel or the grandeur of Christopher Reeve. This is Superman pulled in fifteen different directions, trying to soar while carrying the weight of an entire franchise reboot. The DC Icon, Reimagined (Again) Superman (2025) marks the first major step in James Gunn’s new…

The Dinosaurs Are Back… But The Magic Isn’t Jurassic World Rebirth is the seventh entry in the long-running dinosaur saga. Positioned as a standalone sequel with potential franchise reboot energy, it attempts to evolve the formula by fusing survival action with sci-fi horror — and fails to revive the franchise’s pulse. This time, we’re back where it all started: a remote island facility once tied to the original Jurassic Park project. Scarlett Johansson leads a covert team tasked with retrieving dinosaur DNA, which is said to hold life-saving medical breakthroughs. Of course, nothing goes as planned. The dinosaurs are still…

Murder Doll Mayhem Returns, But Is It an Upgrade? The M3GAN Legacy: From Viral Villain to Sci-Fi Star When M3GAN first dropped in 2023, it was a surprise hit. A PG-13 techno-horror about a hyper-intelligent doll going rogue could’ve flopped—but thanks to clever marketing (including that dance), some sharp satire on parenting and tech, and a breakout performance from a robot with attitude, it hit a nerve. It grossed nearly $181 million worldwide on a $12 million budget. Naturally, Blumhouse greenlit a sequel. Enter M3GAN 2.0, two years later. This time, they’ve dialed everything up: more lore, more action, a…

The road to redemption goes 200 mph. Brad Pitt steps into the cockpit for a high-octane crowd-pleaser that dares to mix grit with glory. 🏎️ Back on Track Director Joseph Kosinski (Top Gun: Maverick) brings the same kinetic realism and mechanical awe to F1, a sleek sports drama fueled by style, speed, and sentiment. Think Days of Thunder by way of Creed, with IMAX shots that practically put you behind the wheel. The story follows Sonny Hayes (Brad Pitt), a former Formula 1 prodigy who vanished from the scene after a devastating crash in the ’90s. Thirty years later, he’s…
