There’s something brilliantly “whatevs” about the film’s IMDB synopsis: Barbie lives in Barbie Land and then a story happens. What story? Getting her nails done? Winning a Nobel prize? Remembering bin day after a bank holiday? Solving the mystery of Lord Lucan? Growing Lancashire’s biggest marrow? These are all things I would put on my… We’re in the pink at this new Barbie image Read More

Official poster for the 75th Festival de Cannes released
Cannes I look at it without feeling dizzy? No I Canne’t. Sorry not sorry. I mean désolé pas désolé. So many Cannes jokes! And even more if you’re a Geordie francophile waving off your movie-loving beloved as they head to France this May (“Gan Canne-y, pet!”) The Cannes film Festival runs from 17-28 May this… Official poster for the 75th Festival de Cannes released Read More
Make way for the one and only: new Thor — Love And Thunder teaser trailer
Chesney Hawkes is back and this time he’s Thor! Sorry, I got distracted by the tagline on the new (and gorgeous) Love And Thunder poster, below. We may not get Chesney warbling over this teaser but we do get Sweet Child O’ Mine by Guns N’ Roses, which is almost as perfect a choice for… Make way for the one and only: new Thor — Love And Thunder teaser trailer Read More

The74th festival is all set to go ahead between 6 and 17 July this year. Spike Lee is the Cannes jury president, and he features — along with some palm trees — on the black and white poster.

NEW Green Knight poster and Sir Gawain is on a mission
I love it, but is there perhaps a German word for how your brain feels when the word for a colour is written in another colour? Because that’s how I feel right now. Let’s face it, the knights of King Arthur’s round table were starting to look a bit wet, so it’s good to see… NEW Green Knight poster and Sir Gawain is on a mission Read More

NEW Army Of The Dead character posters unleashed — and yet not one of Zombie Tiger?
*** Read my 4-star review and article about the film *** Zack Snyder’s Vegas-set zombie thriller Army Of The Dead is out in May, and you can check out the 12 new character posters below. Sadly zombie tiger, the clear breakout star of the trailer, is not one of them. Maybe they’re saving that for… NEW Army Of The Dead character posters unleashed — and yet not one of Zombie Tiger?

Another new poster for No Time To Die
I like how clear its message is. No, not the unreadable title font – NOVEMBER. (A 2020 on the end would have been even more reassuring but beggars can’t be choosers.) He’s ditched the suit too so James I take it all back.
“WE’VE GOT WOMEN TOO!” New York Film Festival gets John Waters to create this year’s poster
Film festival life has brightened considerably now that the New York Film Festival has unveiled its glorious poster for this year’s event – the 58th. Designed by “Pope of Trash” John Waters, NYFF describe it as “a fond tribute and witty parody of the historic festival, poking fun at the long-held stereotypes, valid critiques, and… “WE’VE GOT WOMEN TOO!” New York Film Festival gets John Waters to create this year’s poster Read More
New poster for No Time To Die
…and it’s very nice but a bit dull. Despite furloughing the film in March, I doubt they’d have gone for a post-Lockdown Bond in skanky tracky bottoms and a Dumbledore beard. Still, “suave superspy in a dinner suit with a gun” just feels a little out of step with the current mood of general listlessness,… New poster for No Time To Die Read More
