President Donald Trump isn’t just known for his tweets, but also, his manner of tweeting. He’s got a distinct voice, and favorite words that he loves to sprinkle throughout his 140 characters. The word that’s most synonymous with Trump? The label that’s become his go-to insult?
Sad.
Trump doesn’t hesitate to label something sad. In fact, he says it rather often, in both a serious way (when something actually brings him sorrow) or as an insult (when it’s a synonym for pathetic). By our count, he’s said it 64 times on Twitter alone. These are the people,...

Prior to his signing on to direct Jurassic World, the reboot of the massively successful Jurassic Park franchise, Colin Trevorrow was known for a little indie flick called Safety Not Guaranteed. The film was your typical indie flick with a bit of a sci-fi twist, and it really showed his ability to tell a story. While Jurassic World made a whole boatload of money, there was a backlash to the film in terms of storytelling.
In the eyes of many who tried to give the film repeated viewings, the flick did not hold up very well when looked at too closely, and while it delivered on spectacle, it didn’t do much in terms of character. Many viewers haven’t let others forget this fact, but they may have forgotten that, as mentioned above, Trevorrow does have his beginnings in more character-focused fare. With his latest film, The Book of Henry,...

In news that every '90s kid will appreciate, it's true: Christina Ricci and Devon Sawa had a thing back when they were filming Now and Then. According to E! News, that's one of the behind-the-scenes tidbits that came out of an La screening held for the movie's 20th anniversary on Friday, which brought out Devon, Thora Birch, writer I. Marlene King, and producers Suzanne and Jennifer Todd. At one point, it was revealed that all four lead girls had a "wild crush" on Devon, and they had a bet going on who would "get with" him while filming. For his part, Devon said, "no comment," but Thora said that Christina - who also starred with Devon in Casper that same year - ended up winning the contest. One producer said, "She got out front, and the other girls weren't happy about it," and Devon added, "I was the only...

I’m “biast” (con): so tired of found footage

Of all the great time-travel paradoxes, perhaps the most mysterious is this one: Those who dare to tamper with temporal physics never seem to heed the warnings of every piece of time-travel fiction ever, to just not try it, because really bad things will happen for sure. We know for certain that the three high-school guys who are goofing around with time are aware of the potential problems, because Bill & Ted’s Excellent Adventure, Doctor Who, Back to the Future, and the Terminator franchise all get a name- or visual-check here. But they forge ahead anyway, and it all goes wrong.

Bay produces this movie through his Platinum Dunes production company and, though first-time director Dean Israelite initially has fun with Project Almanac's nifty premise, the film's inevitable descent into 'Bayhem' prevents it from being anything other than fast-forgotten entertainment.

Representing Latin American, U.S. Latino, and non-Latino artists who explore multicultural relationships from singular perspectives, the films at this year's Sundance Film Festival include an array of stories that showcase the diverse creative voices that exist within the Latino filmmaking community.
This list includes both films that have been created fully or partially by Latin American or U.S. Latino filmmakers, as well as those that deal with themes and ideas relevant to the Latino experience in or outside the Unites States, even if these were not created by Latino artists. The increasing interest in these stories testifies to how rapidly Latinos are becoming constant and strong voices in all areas of the film industry.
In order to highlight as many of these talented creators and films as possible, we’ve created a list that includes all the films at the festival that are helmed by or that incorporate Latino talent and those that focus on a specific aspect pertinent to the Latino community. Some are obvious standouts like Argentina's acclaimed dark comedy "Wild Tales" or Colombia's "Liveforever" from Carlos Moreno.
Then there are those who at first sight might not fit the parameters of what one could think is a Latino film. This is the case of films like Eli Roth's "Knock Knock," which is an English-language horror film whose co-writers, producers, and part of the cast are originally from Chile. There is also " Aloft," a drama in the Spotlight section, which is set between Canada and Minnesota and stars Jennifer Connelly. It was written and directed by Academy Award nominated Peruvian filmmaker Claudia Llosa.
The third case includes those films that deal with subjects that have Latino elements or that explore diversity in the U.S in some way. Examples of these are "The Strongest Man" from Kenny Riches, a film narrated in Spanish by its protagonist "Beef," a charming, yet lost Cuban-American man in Miami; or "Cartel Land" by Matthew Heineman, which focuses on the violence shared between Mexico and U.S due to the drug-fueled chaos that afflicts the region. On a lighter note, there are films like “City of Gold” by Laura Gabbert, in which Los Angeles is seen through its ethnic food and local idiosyncrasies.
In an effort to give exposure to those films in the program that don’t get as much attention, the list below starts with the Shorts Programs and ends with the Dramatic Premieres. Each title is linked to its page on the Sundance website where screening times and locations can be found. Regardless of what films you watch at the festival, it is likely that your eyes will be expose to the work of some amazingly talented Latino filmmaker, writer or actor, or those who appreciate our stories as much as we do.

Lila and Eve form a friendship, and Lila begins to crawl out of her depression. She develops a burning desire to find justice for her son, and she presses the authorities for answers, but they are slow-moving and ineffective. It’s Eve who has the idea first—join together, find the drug dealers who shot Stephon dead, and bring them to justice themselves.
This list includes both films that have been created fully or partially by Latin American or U.S. Latino filmmakers, as well as those that deal with themes and ideas relevant to the Latino experience in or outside the Unites States, even if these were not created by Latino artists. The increasing interest in these stories testifies to how rapidly Latinos are becoming constant and strong voices in all areas of the film industry.
In order to highlight as many of these talented creators and films as possible, we’ve created a list that includes all the films at the festival that are helmed by or that incorporate Latino talent and those that focus on a specific aspect pertinent to the Latino community. Some are obvious standouts like Argentina's acclaimed dark comedy "Wild Tales" or Colombia's "Liveforever" from Carlos Moreno.
Then there are those who at first sight might not fit the parameters of what one could think is a Latino film. This is the case of films like Eli Roth's "Knock Knock," which is an English-language horror film whose co-writers, producers, and part of the cast are originally from Chile. There is also " Aloft," a drama in the Spotlight section, which is set between Canada and Minnesota and stars Jennifer Connelly. It was written and directed by Academy Award nominated Peruvian filmmaker Claudia Llosa.
The third case includes those films that deal with subjects that have Latino elements or that explore diversity in the U.S in some way. Examples of these are "The Strongest Man" from Kenny Riches, a film narrated in Spanish by its protagonist "Beef," a charming, yet lost Cuban-American man in Miami; or "Cartel Land" by Matthew Heineman, which focuses on the violence shared between Mexico and U.S due to the drug-fueled chaos that afflicts the region. On a lighter note, there are films like “City of Gold” by Laura Gabbert, in which Los Angeles is seen through its ethnic food and local idiosyncrasies.
In an effort to give exposure to those films in the program that don’t get as much attention, the list below starts with the Shorts Programs and ends with the Dramatic Premieres. Each title is linked to its page on the Sundance website where screening times and locations can be found. Regardless of what films you watch at the festival, it is likely that your eyes will be expose to the work of some amazingly talented Latino filmmaker, writer or actor, or those who appreciate our stories as much as we do.

Kingdom, Season 1, Episode 10: “King Beast”
Written by Byron Balasco
Directed by Tim Iacofano
Airs Wednesdays at 9pm Et on the Audience Network
The first season finale of Kingdom, appropriately titled “King Beast”, is more interesting for what it doesn’t do than what it does. Namely, the episode contains no overreactions to the events of fight day. There is a complete lack of build up to the fights both Ryan and Jay have been preparing for for months. Both fighters are loose at Navy Street during final preparations, if not totally relaxed. Jay is his usual sarcastic self throughout the entire day, keeping everybody around him in good spirits as the fights inch closer. Even in the stew room, surrounded by nervous family and friends, the tension doesn’t overwhelm the excitement of the battle. Ryan is visibly coiled up inside, ready to burst, but not in a way...

Not unlike the previous year, a whopping eight thousand plus short films were submitted to Sundance this year. Among some of the filmmaker names that we are already familiar with, we find several feature filmmakers moonlighting back to the short form; basically the short is healthier than ever. Topping the 2015 crop, we have Jake Mahaffy (whose feature, Free in Deed appears to be somewhere in post) who contributes to our understanding of 13th century rule with the year specific, A.D. 1363, The End of Chivalry. We have Cutie and the Boxer helmer working in the fiction form with Hugh the Hunter and form the same vintage 2013 year, fellow feature film helmer Shaka King (director of Newlyweeds) turns in a short in Mulignans (see pic above). Michael Mohan who has been to Sundance with features One Too Many Dates and Save the Date, returns with Pink Grapefruit.

There are a ton of movies that deal with time travel, and most of them are really great. When it comes to time travel in these stories, it doesn't really matter if it's possible or not, it's all about the imagination and wonder of it all.
The Screen Junkies wondered how far away from time travel technology we are, so they enlisted the expertise of University of Southern California physicist Dr. Clifford Johnson and Jpl Nasa scientist Christina Heinlein. They got them to break down the physics of time travel in films such as Back to the Future, Bill & Ted’s Excellent Adventure, Planet of the Apes, X-Men: Days of the Future Past, Edge of Tomorrow, and even some TV shows like Quantum Leap.
Even if time travel isn't really possible, it still makes for an entertaining plot point in the movies!

Grey’s Anatomy “You've Got To Hide Your Love Away “ began with a montage of the couples having sex, withholding sex, and vowing for a new start.
Grey's Anatomy Recap
As Meredith (Ellen Pompeo) talks about the pervasiveness of cancer in a voiceover, Jo (Camilla Luddington) and Alex (Justin Chambers) are rolling around in his bed – the awkwardness of the forgotten proposal clearly behind them. Meanwhile, unmemorable couple Owen (Kevin McKidd) and Emma (Marguerite Moreau) are going at it in the trailer bed.

Warning: Do not keep reading if you haven't watched the first two episodes of "House of Cards" Season 2. Up now, "Chapter 15."
Where we are:
Raymond Tusk has come back into play, as he meets with the president to discuss Chinese tariffs -- a meeting Frank and Secretary of State Durant crash because Christina (Peter Russo's old flame and campaign manager) now works for the president's chief of staff, Linda Vasquez, and told them about said meeting.
Durant wants to send a message to the Chinese about cyber-security and attacks on the U.S., which Tusk balks at because he can't have anything messing up his business with China. The president initially tells Durant to tread lightly, but when a comment leaks from the negotiations with China that sounds somewhat like an ultimatum, Durant stays strong in her stance.
The president consults with Tusk but then surprisingly sides with Durant and Frank,...

We're into week three of the blind auditions, and the talent just keeps on coming. Well, when everyone isn't fluttering about Tom Jones's sex bomb nature ("You need all those girls to balance your testosterone" "Yeeeeeeahhh!"), or polishing their buttons, or laughing at Will saying "blokes" or, in the case of Tom, stating the bleeding obvious: "I think each coach wants to get the best team. I mean, that's why we're here." That is true, and we got six new acts added to the coaches' teams this week, but who really blew us away? Read on for our rankings...
1. Myles Evans
Song: 'High Hopes' / Coach: Ricky Wilson
