When George Lucas created the first Star Wars film, one thing that stood out was the depth of its world-building.

The original Knives Out was a phenomenon upon its 2019 release. The film, from writer-director Rian Johnson, gave audiences the increasingly rare delight of a sharply-written, wholly original theatrical property. The film played a heavy part in revitalizing the murder-mystery genre and reached box office heights seldom seen with modern mid-budget films. In today’s risk-averse blockbuster landscape, the greenlighting of such a film is a minor miracle.

<![CDATA[The Nightmare Before Christmas Director's New Idea Would Ruin The Original Disney Movie's $91M Magic]]> The Nightmare Before Christmas director Henry Selick has an idea for a prequel, which really doesn't need to happen. Tim Burton could scarcely have been a bigger name in the early '90s after the Batman films, so it when it came time for Disney to promote a stop-motion movie he wrote and produced, they labeled it Tim Burton's The Nightmare Before Christmas. Of course, this implied Burton also directed the movie, which is a misunderstanding that angered the actual helmer Henry Selick for many years, though in a recent 30th-anniversary interview with People, he states this no longer bothers him.

<![CDATA[What Happened To Howl & Sophie After Howl's Moving Castle]]> The end of Studio Ghibli's Howl's Moving Castle saw Sophie's curse broken, but this wasn't the end of her adventures with Howl. Animation legend Hayao Miyazaki based his 2004 movie on the book of the same name by writer Diana Wynne Jones, and though Howl's Moving Castle was a standalone film, the book was part of a trilogy. This means that Sophie and Howl's story extended further than the ending audiences saw on screen, with the books Castle in the Air and House of Many Ways detailing the couple's adventures after falling in love.

While certainly a justifiable departure, the biggest problem with the change was that Roiland provided the voice of several characters on the show, including both the titular Rick and Morty. While Roiland's other show, Solar Opposites, replaced him quickly with someone who sounds nothing like him in Dan Stevens, things were done differently on Rick and Morty. Roiland's recast Rick and Morty actors were revealed in season 7, proving the difference to be almost minuscule from before.

The legendary director and proponent of the cinematic experience in theaters made headlines once it was announced that Killers of the Flower Moon was being made through Apple TV+. The streaming service stepped up to fund the $200 million epic at a time when traditional movie studios and competitor streamers did not want to finance Scorsese's follow-up to The Irishman. This has not stopped anticipation from being sky-high for the latest Martin Scorsese and Leonardo DiCaprio movie.

Frasier began as an ancillary character on Cheers but Kelsey Grammer's neurotic psychiatrist quickly moved up to series regular. When Cheers ended in 1993, Grammer continued to play the role in his own wildly successful spinoff Frasier, which ran for 11 seasons and saw him dispense psychiatric advice in his Seattle radio show and creating family bonds with his younger brother Niles and curmudgeonly father Martin. In the revival 19 years later, Frasier has moved back to Boston to be closer to his adult son Freddy and take a professorial position at Harvard.

The story uses its mass exodus of humanity to comment sharply on the future of the climate crisis, the way we’re interacting with the environment, and what this could mean for the future of our species. The story was incredibly ahead of its time, but this theory allows audiences to view the narrative in a totally different way.

Many horror movies come with the "based on a true story" motif, but the real-world connotations of their narrative are not as simple as they usually seem. The true story behind The Possession's dybbuk box is perhaps the perfect example of this.

<![CDATA[The Thing's Eye Gleam Theory Explained: How It Reveals Who's Infected]]> The Thing's eye gleam theory can supposedly reveal which characters are alien imitations, but how effective is this method in practice? The original The Thing from Another World is one of John Carpenter's favorite movies, which is why he was reluctant to helm a remake when first approached. However, the original movie dropped the imitation element that was present in the original short story Who Goes There? in favor of a more generic alien monster. Carpenter decided the alien shapeshifter concept was the perfect way to reinvent the concept, and was determined the monster itself would rarely, if ever, be depicted onscreen as a man in a creature costume.

<![CDATA[Nintendo's Cinematic Universe Will Succeed By Avoiding A Common Franchise Mistake]]> Following the success of The Super Mario Bros. Movie, a Nintendo cinematic universe seems likely, but the nature of its source material will make for a different kind of movie universe that avoids a common franchise mistake. For years, Nintendo kept its distance from mainstream movie adaptations, following the legendary embarrassment of 1993’s Super Mario Bros., which regularly appears on lists of the worst video game movies ever made. However, doubtless buoyed by the good fortune of the Sonic the Hedgehog movie, the company took a gamble with The Super Mario Bros. Movie. The film was a bona fide phenomenon, taking home $1.36 billion in the second-highest gross of 2023.
