January is a month to catch up on the awards contenders released in the weeks prior and for studios to drop all their wide releases they have no idea what to do with. The reasoning is simple. There are no major vacations for one....

Mark Hamill Thinks Jedi Don’t Give Up, Forgets About Obi-Wan Kenobi And Yoda Giving Up By Ethan Anderton/Dec. 21, 2017 10:00 am EST (Welcome to The Soapbox, the space where we get loud, feisty, political, and opinionated about anything and everything.

Movie Review: Definitely, Maybe Is “Definitely So-So” By Zach Lawrence/Feb. 17, 2008 2:12 pm EST Ryan Reynolds’s star has not blazed into the sky yet. Sure, he has made numerous attempts and coasted around orbit before burning out into a falling star back to earth, but his rise has not stuck. It’s starring vehicles like Definitely Maybe that stunt his growth as an actor, he is unable to unleash his dry, witty lashbacks and deadpan grace upon us....

Page 3 By Brendon Connelly/Nov. 13, 2009 5:00 am EST This image of Obi Don Quixote comes from Damopaints’ Flickr. It was apparently created by painting over a print he purchased in a charity shop. He’s done a few variants. Page 3 is the eccentric little brother of Page 2 and compiles even more stories which, for whatever reason, didn’t make the front page of /Film. There’s a whole heap of different items after the break – video clips, posters, pictures, odd snippets of news....

Sam Mendes Interviews Your Favorite Directors And They Respond With Gold By Jacob Hall/Oct. 14, 2015 12:30 pm EST Director Sam Mendes is guest-editing next month’s issue of Empire and he really delivered the goods.
