Freeform Wants Viewers to “Kick 2020 in the Ballots. FF’ing Vote”

See the Trailer: Lily James and Armie Hammer Star in ‘Rebecca’

‘Britannia’ Episode 6 Review: A Tale of Three Women

Britannia episode 6 is the best this show has been. Unfortunately, that’s not exactly a high bar to clear as the show has been slow, and even boring at times. That’s without mentioning the meandering plot, the severed heads, the…

‘Wonder Woman 1984’ is Sticking to Theaters

We didn’t expect otherwise, but it’s still kinda strange to see so much certainty in the world we’re living in. I mean, I want to watch Wonder Woman 1984 as much as the next person. I would just also like…
