Christopher Nolan threw in a jab at the “evil streaming” platforms while talking about the importance of audiences physically owning Oppenheimer.

Warner Bros. Discovery, the hulking monster born of the recent merger between Discovery Inc. and AT&T's WarnerMedia, has unveiled an outline of its plans to merge its HBO Max and Discovery+ streaming services in the next year. Per the company's earnings call, we can expect them to smash together into their new form in the summer of 2023.

Angelina Jolie isn’t using Instagram to post selfies.

Love stories can be found on Amazon, Netflix, and many more streamers this Valentine's Day.

Can an actor be content to just be an actor, or do they have to use their platform to take a stand for current issues?

The PlayStation 5 arrives this November 12th (if you can get your hands on one) to provide next-gen gaming entertainment for millions of fans out there, but Sony knows that the PS5 isn't just for video games. Since the original PlayStation included a CD player and the PS2 built a DVD player into the hardware, the console has doubled as a media player of sorts. That aspect really upped the value for folks shelling out hundreds of dollars for a glorified piece of plastic. The PS3 and PS4 added to that value in big ways, turning the PlayStations …

In a press release earlier today, iconic gaming company Atari announced that they are teaming up with Plex as their featured streaming media platform on the upcoming PC / console hybrid gaming / entertainment system, Atari VCS. When it launches this November, presumably alongside heavy hitters Xbox Series X and PlayStation 5, the inclusion of Plex "will allow owners to stream their personal collections of films, television shows, photos, and music, as well as enjoy thousands of free on-demand movies and shows from content providers Warner Bros. Domestic Television Distribution, Crackle, Lionsgate, MGM, and more." Maybe I've been under a …

Heads up, Gravcycle pilots! Disintegration, the genre-breaking, sci-fi first-person shooter from Private Division and V1 Interactive (an independent game studio based out of Seattle) will be available for free on PC, PlayStation 4, and Xbox One this weekend. This game offers players a chance to show off both their FPS skills and their real-time strategy (RTS) competency in unique ways, as I mentioned in my review earlier this year. Additionally, the difficulty settings allow players of all levels of experience to tweak their gameplay styles, ranging from a more casual story mode to a nail-biting …

If you haven't heard of the Comedy Central series Corporate, that's totally understandable and you do not need to explain why to anyone — including the show itself. Corporate gets it. At least, that's the biggest takeaway from last night's Season 3 premiere, "Pickles 4 Breakfast," which, in 22 minutes, delivers not just one of the most savage satires of today's streaming culture, but brings with it a new layer of existential dread. In the episode, Hampton DeView, the streaming service operated by evil corporation Hampton DeVille, has hit a crisis point, driven by poorly received …

A year and a half after its release, Tillman Jr. shared the news on Tuesday morning via tweet his very timely 2018 feature is now free to watch. Tillman Jr. …

That's some high quality HBO.

Fresh off of the news that Sony has dubbed their Spider-Man-centric movie-verse the Sony Pictures Universe of Marvel Characters, also known colloquially as S.P.U.M.C., the studio is making further strides into the at-home market. As movie theaters remain closed in most of the world, major content producers (whose names aren't Netflix, Hulu, Amazon Prime Video, etc.) are looking for ways to get their very expensive moving pictures in the hands of audiences who make their big-ticket productions possible. We've already seen a shifting of VOD release dates and a …

Between concerns over everyone’s safety and various measures California has put in place to flatten the curve, there was just no way the annual convention could be held. One popular adult webcam platform, however, has stepped forward with an unconventional solution.

We shared the (mostly) non-spoiler portion of our e-mail interview with The Platform director Galder Gaztelu-Urrutia yesterday, but now it's time to get into those burning spoiler-heavy questions we sent his way. With that being said, do not read this article if you haven't seen The Platform on Netflix yet! The movie concludes with Goreng (Ivan Massagué) teaming up with his new cellmate, Baharat (Emilio Buale), to ride the platform down from Floor 6 to ensure that everyone below gets a portion of food. Eventually they hit a point where no one is alive …

I can't get enough of The Platform. It was all I could think about back when I first saw it in September and that continued straight through to the film's March 20th release on Netflix. The Platform features an unforgettable performance from Ivan Massagué as Goreng, a man who agrees to spend six months in a prison-like facility called "The Hole" in exchange for an accredited diploma. It sounds like a reasonable trade at the start, but Goreng quickly comes to realize that the facility's meal delivery system has a devastating effect on the residents. The …

Quibi’s co-founder Jeffrey Katzenberg revealed several details about the soon-to-launch streaming platform in a new interview with Deadline. Katzenberg, the former chairman of Walt Disney Studios, has established an impressive lineup of creators for the smartphone-only platform, including Steven Spielberg, who is currently writing a horror series that will utilize special technology only allowing viewers to watch it at night. The content available on Quibi is divided into several categories, including Movies in Chapters like Most Dangerous Game starring Liam Hemsworth and Christoph Waltz and Survive starring Sophie Turner, Unscripted and Docs, and Daily Essentials. …

What lies beneath The Platform?

It’s an unusual time to be a movie fan. With the COVID-19 pandemic shutting down movie theaters and film productions internationally, the release calendar just went blank for the near future and got a whole lot more uncertain in the distant future. But fortunately, we live in an absurdly robust time of entertainment, and while theatrical distribution may be out for the moment, streaming platforms still have plenty of new content on the docket for the time being. And wouldn’t you know it, Netflix’s The Platform dropped last week and the Spanish dystopian thriller is one …

The Platform really did it for me back when I first saw the Midnight Madness selection for its big debut at the 2019 Toronto International Film Festival. The Spanish horror thriller is a social allegory that’ll make you think twice about the world’s abysmal distribution of wealth, rampant selfishness and how challenging it can be to spark lasting change for the future. So yeah, a worthwhile message movie for just about any day of the week. But The Platform has been on my mind quite a bit the last few weeks in particular and it isn’t just …

Galder Gaztelu-Urrutia makes his feature directorial debut with an astoundingly creative and well crafted film. The Platform is a must-see feat of production design, score, performance, and high-concept execution that will likely leave your stomach extremely unsettled - and in this movie’s case, that’s a compliment. The movie stars Ivan Massagué as Goreng, a man who voluntarily agrees to serve six months in The Hole in exchange for an accredited diploma. The facility is a prison of sorts that’s structured vertically. Two inmates call each floor home for exactly 30 days. At the end of …
