Is That Trump? 5 Roles Giving Déjà Vu

With Trump back in the global spotlight recently due to his tariff policies, his distinctive expressions always reminds me of quite a few "familiar faces" from the movies. Hollywood seems to always draw from reality, especially when it comes to figures as dramatic and buzzworthy as Trump, whether in ironic or serious ways, or maybe just in attempts to piggyback on him. Below are five Hollywood characters from recent years that I feel draw some inspiration from Trump. Kenneth Marshall - Mickey 17

marvelousmars: It's kind of hard not to think about fascism these days, so I'm not surprised we see reflections on Trump in so many characters. Still, this is a great list - I haven't seen half the films on it! Maybe when the political situation is a bit less... Well, just less (lmao), I'll have the mental energy to watch them.

Is That Trump? 5 Roles Giving Déjà Vu

Jennifer Check Takes Light Yagami to Dinner

So many mainstream thriller and horror franchises are built around psychotic antagonists facing off against protagonists that are kind of just saner versions of the villains. And I get why that elevates the conflict, drives the plot forward, and gives the audience someone they're obviously meant to root for. The few films that feature two similarly antagonistic characters playing off one another are rare and much harder to develop, but whenever I watch a movie that nails it done right, then that

Welcome to the unsung son of David Lynch and Charlie Kaufman

We all take for granted that, when we are going to watch a movie, we inevitably expect the best of it. No matter if it's a science fiction epic, a simple drama or a hilarious comedy, we end up developing a new relationship with the work each time, whether we hit play from our sofa or take a seat in a movie theater. That mutual understanding can be one of the most wonderful things and lead us to everlasting conversations, debating years later about what had once astonished us, but it can also be

Super Punch: Who’s the strongest? Who knows

What combination would take down any criminal, villain or ne'er-do-well? For me, it’s the combination of an alien with godlike power that’s known across a large portion of the (DC) universe and some random bald guy in a yellow costume. Superman and Saitama (One Punch Man, in case you didn’t know) are some of the most powerful heroes in fiction. They each have the ability to destroy planets but control themselves to the point of only knocking out their opponent. How would these two interact if th

Charlie Kelmeckis & Todd Anderson: I know what it's like to feel different

I’ve found that most articles for this challenge are based on action films led by brave, intelligent characters with extraordinary physical and combat skills, risking their lives in dangerous situations—often for a greater good. But I’d like to focus on the other side of the spectrum: the quiet ones. The ones who choose solitude. The ones who notice everything and feel even more. The Perks of Being a Wallflower is a 2012 film based on the 1999 novel of the same name, written and directed by Step

A Minecraft Movie: A Movie for Losers

Teenage boys used to be cool. Teenage boys used to be rebellious in a way that felt at least somewhat culturally valuable. They spearheaded counter-cultural activities and artistic movements, like skateboarding and punk music. This “coolness” has always been performative, but it never felt informed by a desire for attention. Now, “coolness” is synonymous with chaos, destruction, and above all else, this thirst for attention at any cost. Now, to feel cool, teenage boys are trashing movie theatres

Matthew Alan Schmidt: I truly fear the effects this phenomenon will have on the future of the theatre experience. I hate how it's becoming normalized for people to record videos on their phones during screenings, many of which with the flash turned on no-less. I'm very grateful to have been able to see this pile of garbage in a 19+ theatre where I didn't have to deal with any of this added social-media-trend bullshit.

'Sinners' Review: A Haunting, Soulful Ode to Black Music and the Vampires Who Feed on It

From the first shot of Sinners, you know you're in for something soul-stirring. A young man, soaked in blood and clutching a shattered guitar, stumbles into a church full of worshippers. His name is Sammie (played by newcomer Miles Caton in a revelatory performance), and his story is one of pain, beauty, and transformation. So too is Academy Award-nominated filmmaker Ryan Coogler's latest film, a bold and breathtaking journey through the heart of the Mississippi Delta that sings with soul and sc

Sinners: This is What IMAX is For

Sinners isn't always a perfect movie, but it is perfect for IMAX. I cannot count the number of times I've seen a film in IMAX that wasn't worthy of it. You can see A Minecraft Movie in IMAX. Seriously, what are we doing? For those unaware, IMAX is a much higher resolution and immersive method of capturing and presenting film footage. Where traditional film cameras are capable of shooting on 35mm, IMAX cameras can capture on 70mm. This provides more detailed and richer images, which are often pre

The Story Behind the 2025 Cannes Film Festival Poster: A Romantic Film Supreme

The annual Cannes Film Festival has just unveiled its official poster for this year's edition. Unlike past years, however, the 2025 festival features a dual-format poster—a first in the event’s history. The visual materials are drawn from A Man and a Woman, the Palme d'Or-winning romantic film from the 1966 festival. Each of the two posters shows a frontal portrait: one of the man and the other of the woman, in an embrace. The festival offered an official introduction to the poster: A man. A wom

We need to talk, Kevin I hope you're doing better now. In case you were wondering, my pinky's okay, a little sore, but the doctor was able to reattach it. You're a Robin Hood in the making, kid. I taught you everything I know, but the student surpasses the master, as they say. And I think my archery days are over. It's gonna be a long while before they let me get my hands on another bow. That's something I wanted to talk to you about. Things are weird in here, man. People are saying all kinds of

"Dream" Blunt Rotation

It's Easter Sunday and I'm 2,000 kilometres from home. Feeling alone and homesick, I don't know what to do with myself. I look at the calendar. April 20. Interesting. I decide to call an old buddy of mine. The Dude answers in a panic. Trouble just seems to follow this guy. I try to calm him, but it's useless. Something has him riled. I tell him I'm coming over. I get on my bike and pedal across Los Angeles. Dude's house is in Santa Monica. Its quaint size and agreeable lawn remind me of the impo
