Forget Avatar, We Need A New Terminator Film Now
Neil Calloway wants James Cameron to return to the franchise that made him sooner rather than later… While the news that James Cameron will return to The Terminator films is welcome, it really can’t come soon enough.

The Cinematic Universe Fascination: A Bigger Picture Obsession
Tom Jolliffe on Hollywood’s fascination with the shared cinematic universe… Marketing, labelling, packaging. It’s everywhere. In cinematic terms it’s more important than ever.

The Genesis of the Excessively Long Action Scene
Tom Jolliffe on the genesis of the excessively long action scene… It has become almost the norm now.

Will The Franchise Ruin TV Too?
Neil Calloway asks whether TV is becoming less original… It’s easy to slate the current state of cinema, and far too many people do it in an attempt to look superior and informed, but when they do it, it has a ring of truth to it. Not a single film in last year’s worldwide box […]
