Alec Baldwin Plays Bill O'Reilly, Donald Trump in SNL Video

WhenAlec Baldwinis after you, it seems there is little you can do to stop him from making fun of the very idea that you exist. In the case ofDonald Trump, however, you can tell there’s something far more personal going on, a vendetta of sorts that Baldwin isn’t shy about discussing. It’s what makes his take on the President on SNL so easy to enjoy: you can tell there are stakes in this for him, that he’s not just going through the motions to make his bread....

BoJack Horseman Season 5 Spoiler Review: Still One of TV's Best

BoJack Horsemangets away with a lot. As a character,Will Arnett’s perfectly performed anthropomorphic horse-man is a stand-in for a rich, privileged White man who was once a part of the Hollywood elite and has since fallen on relatively hard times. Much like the contemporary face of the patriarchy he represents, BoJack is rarely forced to face his demons, and even when he is, there’s always an out. As a show, the animated Netflix series hides its disdain with accepted sociocultural norms in plain sight, masked only by the fact that its characters are mostly funny-looking animorphs....

El Camino Review: Netflix Movie Is Like Lost Episodes of Breaking Bad

Breaking Badis pretty much a perfect series.Vince Gilliganand his team of writers knew the arc of the show, but they didn’t plan everything out, giving the story enough structure to tell a compelling narrative, but flexible enough to maneuver and make strong choices. One of the best choices was choosing to build on the relationship between protagonist Walter White (Bryan Cranston) and his former-student-turned-accomplice Jesse Pinkman (Aaron Paul). Jesse was famously supposed to die at the end of the first season, but Gilligan wisely saw the potential in the character and the strength of Paul’s performance, and now it’s impossible to think ofBreaking Badwithout the dynamic between Walt and Jesse....

From The Invisible Man to Dracula: The History of Universal Monsters

The Invisible Manreleases this week, the latest reimagining of one of Universal’s classic monster movies. Although it’s technically based on theH.G. Wellsnovel, the hallmarks of the story are largely recognizable thanks to the original 1933 adaptation starringClaude Rains, just as Frankenstein’s monster has become inevitably paired with the bolt-necked ogre portrayed byBoris Karloff, and Dracula has become inseparable fromBela Lugosi’s weirdly seductive caped magician. Universal created one of the first (if not the first) franchises in Hollywood history with its monster movies, and absolutely created the first cinematic universe when they started having those monsters meet each other and hang out with Abbott and Costello....
