Matthew Vaughn loves watching The Man Who Would Be King (1975). It’s easy to see why.

It seems that no movie escapes some sort of controversy these days and Aaron Sorkin’s Being the Ricardos is no exception.

No two Matrix movies are alike. We remember the original as a revolutionary cyberpunk action film that introduced audiences to “bullet time” and the “wire fu” action sequences of the East.

I Love Lucy remains the single most influential series in television history; there is perhaps not a single sitcom in the medium’s long existence that doesn’t owe some stylistic debt to the program, and its creation and development were groundbreaking in ways that we are still trying to catch up with in 2021. Yet the
A lone rider on horseback; a child’s oath of vengeance upon the sight of a beheaded parent; a burly, statuesque, and shirtless he-man swinging a sword into battle while lit only by the glow of wildfire. All of these things could be used to describe the joy of ‘80s beefcake action movies, a la Conan:

It appears reports of the COVID pandemic dampening audiences’ appetites for going to the cinema were greatly exaggerated.

This article contains Spider-Man: No Way Home spoilers. Who’s your favorite Spider-Man?

This article contains major spoilers for The Witcher season 2.
