Venom: The Retro FAQ

Do you have lingering questions about Sony’s first foray into the Spider-Man-But-Without-Spider-Man-In-It Cinematic Universe? Lord, I hope so, because it’s time for another Retro FAQ, this time tackling the dumb, superhero-adjacent, surprise hit of 2018: Venom. Let’s start with the biggie. Why did Sony, which owns the cinematic rights to Spider-Man, make a movie about…

Zombieland: Double Tap Is Exactly the Film You Think It Is

When Zombieland opened in 2009 it felt fresh. The meta, comedy spin on the zombie genre kicked several tried and true formulas in the pants and the film went on to be a huge success. Ten years later, Zombieland: Double Tap does all the same things the original did. And that’s pretty much it. The…

How the 10-Year Wait for Zombieland: Double Tap Changed Everything

If a Zombieland sequel had come out less than 10 years after the original film, it would have been a very different movie, in terms of story but also quality.
