Joe MacMillan once said, “Computers aren’t the thing. They’re the thing that gets us to the thing.” Because for him, it was never about the technology. It was about making connections, and becoming a more fulfilled human being.

Of all the cinematic references evoked in PGA winner and Best Picture favorite “La La Land,” the most deeply resonant is “Casablanca,” Hollywood’s most beloved movie, which aptly celebrates its 75th anniversary this year. It’s also the subject of a delectable new book, “We’ll Always Have Casablanca,” by The New School’s Noah Isenberg (February 14, Norton), who reminds us that it embodies both Hollywood and this country at their best.
Indeed, Damien Chazelle’s Hollywood valentine is a sly reworking of the Humphrey Bogart/Ingrid Bergman classic love story, with Ryan Gosling’s pianist Sebastian winning his jazz club but losing Emma Stone’s Mia to movie stardom. Their final, bittersweet, chance encounter at his club is right out of Rick’s Cafe, and her idol worship of Bergman and the fact that she works on the Warner Bros. lot directly across from the actual “Casablanca” window...

In a recent interview with The Daily Beast, “Titanic” and “Avatar” director James Cameron castigated the Academy for not recognizing blockbusters — or as he calls them — “visual cinema.” The Oscar-winning director was promoting his new documentary, “Atlantis Rising,” about a team of archaeologists searching for the famous lost city, which premiered on the National Geographic Channel on January 29th.
When the conversation turned to the Oscars’ waning ratings, Cameron offered this explanation:
“There have been a few times throughout the history of the Oscars where a wildly popular film was well-received, but your typical year the Academy takes the position of: ‘It is our patrician duty to tell the great unwashed what they should be watching,’ and they don’t reward the films that people really want to see—that they’re paying money to go see—and they’re telling them, “Yeah, you think you like that, but what...

It’s become an all-too-familiar refrain: despite an uptick in discussions regarding the need for diversity in Hollywood, the hard numbers are telling a very different story. The Women’s Media Center, cofounded by Jane Fonda, Robin Morgan, and Gloria Steinem, has today released a new report that finds that this year’s Oscar nominations in non-acting categories are made up of only 20% women, a 2% dip from the 2016 nominations.
As the study notes, for the seventh year in a row, female directors were shut out of the best director category (only one woman has ever won — Kathryn Bigelow for “The Hurt Locker” — and only four women total have ever been nominated). Ava DuVernay did make off with a nod, however, over in the documentary category with her “13th.” “Hidden Figures” screenwriter Allison Schroeder earned the sole female screenwriter nod. Over in the cinematography category, the long-standing tradition of never nominating a woman remained.

While many may know Cameron Monaghan for his role as Ian Gallagher on Shameless, he definitely making a name for himself for his role as Jerome Valeska Aka The Joker on Fox’s Gotham. Young talents like Monaghan and Robin Lord Taylor (who plays the Penguin) have propelled Gotham to a show that was once in question by many of its viewers to one of the better primetime shows on Fox. As far as the return of Gotham tonight, it looks like Monaghan’s character is getting a little crazier. Here’s what Cameron had to say about it: I really can’t wait

A review of tonight's Halt and Catch Fire — the last episode before next week's two-hour season (and hopefully not series) finale — coming up just as soon as I shoo away Alf... "I can't work with Joe MacMillan anymore." -Joe Though Ryan Ray never entirely clicked for me as a character, he left one hell of a suicide note — one that, with the benefit of the Halt writing staff's futuristic vantage point, neatly predicts the advantages and disadvantages of the networked worked Ryan was trying to build with Joe. The internet can bring us together in ways that are both wonderful and terrifying, can introduce us to like-minded people who bring us joy and expose us to like-minded people who are only encouraging each other's worst attributes, can make us feel safe in one minute and vulnerable the next, allowing us to be best friends with someone who lives half a...

Things are moving along just as expected.
It's hard to imagine where this season is going to end, but on Halt and Catch Fire Season 3 Episode 7, Cameron and Donna brought their differences into the board room and out into the open, while Gordon and Joe joined forces again.
The latter part of that sentence brings me perhaps a little too much joy.
Frankly, I'm surprised at how things went down with Mutiny, but I think Boz said it best when he told Cameron that when she marches to the beat of her own drum, she risks losing the band.
Her constant reminder that she is Mutiny and without her there is nothing is not only crass, it's incorrect. Without her there wouldn't be the cornerstone code, but without Donna, there wouldn't be a company in the form it is today.
The problem is that Cameron, for all of the ways...

A few thoughts on tonight's Halt and Catch Fire coming up just as soon as I ask a racecar to adapt to a covered wagon... We're now getting into the heart of my busiest time of the year, but I want to keep covering Halt whenever possible, so some weeks, like this one, it may just be a few bullet points to try to spark discussion to the precious few of you still watching the show. (And, no, I have no idea if the lower ratings means this season is it, since I was surprised AMC renewed it last time, and since Joel Stillerman told me that their ownership of the series gives them financial incentive to keep it around even with low ratings. The question is, how low can it go and survive?) * Last year, it seemed as if the show's directors seemed most excited whenever they got to...

No matter where you go, there you are.
Yep, that's an annoying phrase, but it still holds true as as we take a bit of a time jump at the beginning of Halt and Catch Fire Season 3 Episode 1.
It's 1986 and Mutiny has been successfully ensconced in what will become a very busy Silicon Valley for about six months.

There is a lot of room in the new digs, and a lot of new faces. Mutiny's customer base has expanded and there's a celebration for 100,000 users, a mainframe computer, and the expansion of John Bosworth's family. He has a new grandson.
But even as well as everything is going, there are still problems, and many followed them to California. Not that you can tell they're in California, just like it's not blatantly obvious the show takes place in 1986.

Halt and Catch Fire is back for its third season. I published my review yesterday, and I have some spoiler-y thoughts on the season's first two episodes coming up just as soon as I laugh at your robot butler... "What makes you think I know what I'm looking for?" -Joe This is a busy week for me, but since I'm off altogether next week, I wanted to weigh in on the premiere even briefly, so let's go straight to the bullet points: * As mentioned in the earlier review, Joe MacMillan, complicated villain works so much better than Joe MacMillan, complicated anti-hero. There's still some sense of humanity and maybe even remorse for the things he's done, but he's embraced the fact that everyone who knows him well assumes the worst about him and gone heel, and Lee Pace plays that side of the character exceptionally well. In particular, the scene...

Now entering its third season, “Halt and Catch Fire” has found plenty of drama to mine in the rise of the 1980s computer industry. This year, the show has made the bold move of transplanting its characters from Texas to Northern California, the heart of Silicon Valley, as Cameron (Mackenzie Davis), Donna (Kerry Bishe) and Boze (Toby Huss) attempt to take their young company to the next level.

How is “Halt and Catch Fire” still on the air?
The question may seem rude, given timing and context, as AMC prepares to launch the third season of its period tech drama this Tuesday (Aug. 23), but the query demands further investigation for (at least) two reasons: First, I’m not sure who the audience is I’m writing to right now — nostalgic techies? Lee Pace fans? Odd hangers-on who typically only watch one season of TV? The series has failed to snag enough awards attention or land on a significant number of Top 10 lists to become “prestige TV” in the day and age of “Peak TV,” and the ratings read as a national collective shrug when it comes to the fictional tribulations of a Texas-based PC startup. So who among you need to know if Season 3 is worth watching vs. how many have already decided it’s not?

"Many companies start doing one thing, and then change direction," Joe MacMillan (Lee Pace) notes midway through the third season of AMC's '80s computer drama Halt and Catch Fire, which premieres tomorrow night at 9(*). He notes, for instance, that Coleco started off as the Connecticut Leather Company, then began manufacturing toys, and by the '80s was in the video game business, just as Joe himself stumbled into his current, hugely lucrative career selling anti-virus software after several prior computing ventures went sideways. (*) AMC snuck the season's first episode on last night in a timeslot that was listed as the second hour of Talking Dead, perhaps in hopes that Fear the Walking Dead fans would watch/record it by accident and give this very different show a try. But tomorrow will not only feature that episode again at 9, but the season's second episode in what will be the regular...

Halt and Catch Fire, AMC’s smart, slick series about the fledgling computer industry of the 1980s, is California dreamin’. Joe, Cameron, Gordon, and Donna have all left Texas’ Silicon Prairie for Silicon Valley. “It gets out of the garage very quickly and we’re in the big leagues now,” series star Lee Pace tells HitFix of Halt’s new season debuting later this month. Halt and Catch Fire (which takes its name from an early computer command) started off with salesman/visionary Joe MacMillan’s race to compete with Ibm’s personal computer. Season 2 shifted its focus to online gaming. Now Halt and Catch Fire is going into its third season, which is longer than either of Pace’s previous television shows lasted. His team-ups with Bryan Fuller, Pushing Daisies and Wonderfalls, were canceled before their time, in the former case cutting short Pace’s endearing, Emmy-nominated role as the pie-maker Ned.

Exactly one year from today — July 21, 2017 — “Valerian and the City of a Thousand Planets” starring Dane Dehane and Cara Delevingne will premiere in theaters. And based on what was screened at San Diego Comic-Con 2016, Luc Besson may have once again brought to life a delicious blend of sci-fi, action, and comedy.
Besson’s filmography not only includes impressive works like “The Professional” and “La Femme Nikita,” but also the cult sci-fi favorite “The Fifth Element,” which brought a lived-in feel (as well as some breathtaking action sequences) to a futuristic world.
“Fifth Element” was famously a childhood dream project of Besson’s, but making “Valerian” looks to bring him full circle to childhood thanks to the original comic series “Valerian and Laureline,” which he fell in love with at the age of 10. Later, when making “Fifth Element,” he encountered artist Jean-Claude Mézières, who drew “Valerian,” and they worked together to create the “Element” look.

Note: The below interview contains plot spoilers for The Neon Demon. The Neon Demon is a hugely divisive film that for me was never less than a fascinating watch. Love him or loathe him, Nicholas Winding Refn takes things to extremes that most other filmmakers wouldn’t dare; in Neon Demon specifically, the late-second and third acts are full of moments both shocking in their audacity and striking in how they manage to lure us in even as they repel us. Chief among these is a scene involving Jena Malone’s makeup artist Ruby and a blond female cadaver that gets very uncomfortable very fast. The more obvious, and equally valid, approach here would be to reach out to Refn and/or Malone to discuss the mechanics of an incredibly disturbing, button-pushing scene, and yet -- as someone perpetually fascinated by those who occupy the lower rungs on the Hollywood...

Once set for a release over a year ago, it’s taking quite some time for The Weinstein Company to dump Amityville: The Awakening into theaters. Barring any future delays, the “revival” of the franchise will now arrive on April 1st, and while our hopes for it aren’t very high, Blumhouse has released an inventive new poster for the horror film.
Taking an note from their campaign for the single-screen horror Unfriended — which actually turned out to be great — the first effective poster utilizes the instantly recognizable Instagram frame as it teases the infamously villainous house. The Weinstein Company have also released the trailer, which is just the same one they let out of the gate early a few years back.
Directed by Franck Khalfoun (Maniac) and starring Jennifer Jason Leigh, Bella Thorne, Cameron Monaghan, Thomas Mann, and Kurtwood Smith, check out the trailer and poster below.

Years after Ricky Gervais roasted Mel Gibson at an earlier Globes show the pair hugged on stage when the Australian introduced footage from Mad Max: Fury Road.
Prior to introducing Gibson, Gervais, tongue firmly in his cheek, referred to previous bad blood between the pair. “I’m sure it’s embarrassing for both of us and I blame NBC for this terrible situation.”
After the embrace Gibson turned to the comedian and said: “I love seeing Ricky once every three years because it reminds me to get a colonoscopy.”
A subsequent exchange was bleeped out.
The Martian was named best musical or comedy. Ridley Scott accepted the award and said “Screw you” as music began to play while he thanked a long list of collaborators.

On Friday, AMC came to press tour and announced renewals for a whole bunch of shows that are not "Halt and Catch Fire." This is unacceptable. Sure, for much of it its first season, "Halt" was a collection of interesting performances and ideas in search of a TV show worth containing them all. But by the time it started this second season, the show about the dawn of the computer age had given itself a massive system upgrade, and is now one of the very best dramas in all of television, let alone on AMC. There was a moment in tonight's season finale — a conversation on an airplane between spouses Donna (Kerry Bishé) and Gordon (Scoot McNairy) that had a much deeper meaning for her than for him — that hit me as hard as anything I've seen in a good long time, and it was just one spectacular scene among many this season.

Tom Selleck and Gene Simmons starred in Michael Crichton's 1984 sci-fi thriller, Runaway. Ryan looks back at a flawed yet intriguing film...
Late 1984 saw two killer robot movies make their debut in Us cinemas. You've probably heard of the first one, released in October: The Terminator, the film that launched the career of James Cameron and cemented Arnold Schwarzenegger's status as a movie star.
The second was Runaway, another sci-fi thriller that, in theory, could have been the bigger hit. It starred Tom Selleck and Kiss singer-bassist Gene Simmons. It was written and directed by Michael Crichton, the director of the superb Westworld and writer of such best-selling novels as The Andromeda Strain and The Terminal Man, both adapted into great films. Six years after Runaway, Crichton would write Jurassic Park, a book that is still sending ripples through pop culture today.
