The way the Marvel Cinematic Universe is structured is constantly changing. What started off as a simple set of interconnected films leading up to a crossover event has now expanded exponentially, into spin-offs and television shows and a potential multiverse full of new possibilities, the most ambitious continuous film project in Hollywood history.

Co-creators and showrunnersSteven MoffatandMark Gatiss’(Sherlock) reimagining of Bram Stoker’s classic novelDraculais arguably the most liberal (and bloody) adaptation of the material ever. The show’s “kitchen sink” approach deconstructs and reframes key events and plot points from the book and puts them through a very modern and, sometimes, convoluted lens. Here, Count Dracula (Claes Bang) literally crosses “oceans of time” (asGary Oldman’s Dracula said in Coppola’s 1992 film) on his way to England to feast on modern day society and confront the toll that being an immortal takes on the legendary vampire....

IT Chapter Twomay clock in at a bladder-bursting 170 minutes, but even combined with the 150 minutes ofIT Chapter One, the films can’t hold a candle to the massive scale of the book, which spins its time-hopping narrative out over a door-stopping 1100ish pages. Although five hours worth of film sounds like a lot, when it comes to adapting such a massive tale, there’s bound to be a significant amount of material that doesn’t make the final cut....

Superhero fatigueis definitely realfor many moviegoers. Years of seemingly non-stop projects being churned out by Marvel and DC have burnt a lot of fans out on the superhero genre, especially when many of these projects feel less inspired than the heights ofAvengers: EndgameorThe Dark Knight. EvenJames Gunn, who’snow in charge of DC Studios alongsidePeter Safran, admits there’s just too much superhero content out there nowadays, but he still believes in a bright future for the over-saturated genre with the right approach....

Father, son, and house of Gaga– sorry,Gucci. When the first trailer forHouse of Gucciwas released in July, the internet exploded with chatter about its innumerable line-reads, rejoinders, and chicer-than-chic costumes - well, all of those things plusJared Leto’s bald cap. Two moments, however, captured the zeitgeist like no other. In one,Lady Gaga’sPatrizia Gucci, née Reggiani, menacingly stirs her tea while telling us she’s not much of an “ethical person”; in the other, she crosses herself and utters the already infamous lines: “Father, son, and house of Gucci....
