‘Fences’ is an adaptation of a play with the same title, but the whole time it never feels like anything other than a play on the big screen. The long scenes with a static camera only accentuates this feeling and makes the film feel like it travels at a snail’s pace.

The Contemporary Art Piece Good Casting returns for a Mi-Soon-lite episode as we predominantly follow Ye-Eul and Chan-Mi instead for the duration of the hour. As romance starts to filter into the show between Chan-Mi and CEO Yoon and also Woo-Won and Ye-Eul, Good Casting ditches some of its early stylistic slickness and replaces it with a more simplistic structure. This time around though we see things start to heat up as the darker elements of the main plot come into the foreground too....
Of course, there are exceptions. Let Me In, Matt Reeves’ 2010 remake of Tomas Alfredson’s vampire tale Let The Right One In, was actually a pretty good movie as the director managed to retain the tense and soulful atmosphere of the eerie original. Philip Kaufman’s Invasion of the Body Snatchers, which was released in 1978, is also a decent remake and is arguably scarier (and all-around better) than Don Siegel’s 1956 communist allegory....

What is Hot Skull Season 1 about? The first episode introduces this dystopian world, picking up 8 years after the initial outbreak of a deadly virus called the “semantic virus”. This contagious mental disorder spreads through speech from one ear to another. Colloquially called “Jabbering”, the infected basically rattle off a bunch of random words together and infect their hosts, sending them into a crazed state of panic. As a result, the entire system collapsed and the world (see: Turkey) allowed the AEI (Anti-Epidemic Forces) to take over, breaking the areas up into different zones to try and contain the virus....

Of course, The Orville is still a comedy at heart so there are still laughs to be had. However, the show’s dramatic subplots set it apart from similar space spoofs that are no longer in existence, and are the reason, perhaps, for The Orville’s enduring popularity. But will The Orville be back for a Season 4? Or have we seen the last of Ed Mercer, Kelly Grayson, and the rest of the Orville crew?...
