Die Hard

(I mean it always was a Christmas movie. But this trailer really makes it look like a Christmas movie.)

The upcoming ‘Die Hard’ sequel/prequel is still in the works, and it features a young Holly Gennero alongside a young John McClane.

Five movies into the franchise, the series is far from over.

With the House of Mouse buying one of the oldest studios in Hollywood, here are the movies and TV shows that could get revivals in the near future.

The Rock gave us a peek behind the scenes of his upcoming disaster movie.

In the tradition of ScreenCrush series like You Think You Know Movies and You Think You Know TV comes a new YouTube series: Top Five!

Over the last 30 years, the terrorists of the world have repeatedly found new ways to torment and intimidate the planet.

This morning’s big Oscar nominations announcement had to contend with an even more major and affecting piece of breaking news. A few days after David Bowie passed into the next dimension, cancer has taken another sixty-nine-year-old Brit from us: esteemed actor Alan Rickman. Flip to the word “arch” in the newest editions of the Oxford Goes To Hollywood dictionary, and there you’ll find a photo of Rickman, single eyebrow raised, his tone of dour bemusement audible even from the printed page. The man gained the most international recognition from a choice role in a certain franchise about a boy wizard, but he was an actor of boundless versatility who gifted audiences plenty of fond moviegoing memories.
