 The Oscars 2022 winners resulted in some major snubs, surprises, and shocks, albeit with the Academy Awards themselves overshadowed by Will Smith's altercation with Chris Rock. Hosted by Regina Hall, Amy Schumer, and Wanda Sykes, the Oscars 2022 ceremony was billed as an opportunity to properly reflect upon and honor cinema amidst the coronavirus pandemic, following a year that continued to be challenging for the industry but did see movie theatres reach something of a new normal. Still, it was a streaming service that led the way, with The Power of the Dog’s 12 nominations placing it at the front of the pack heading into the 94th Academy Awards. Even prior to the 2022 Oscars, there was some cause for controversy alongside snubs and surprises from the nominees themselves, ranging from the decision to have several awards not broadcast live to Dune director Denis Villeneuve’s Best Director snub. It was still, perhaps, a more muted awards season - like in 2021, a sign there remain on

 Here's every character returning from the Mission: Impossible franchise confirmed to return for Mission: Impossible 7. When Tom Cruise's spy franchise began in 1996, it was a mildly successful series at first, but it has become one of the most popular blockbuster franchises in recent years. The rejuvenation of Mission: Impossible started in 2011 with Mission: Impossible - Ghost Protocol, which also served as the entry point for Christopher McQuarrie, who helped rewrite the fourth installment. McQuarrie went on to direct Mission: Impossible - Rogue Nation and Mission: Impossible - Fallout and helped propel the stunts, overall story, and Ethan Hunt's character to new heights. He helped turn the franchise from a series of one-off adventures into a properly connected narrative. An overarching vision started to form, and McQuarrie is now working on the next two Mission: Impossible entries. Production on Mission: Impossible 7 was scheduled to begin in early 2020, but it was dela

 What's really in the Pulp Fiction briefcase? Fans of the 1994 crime classic have speculated for years, but director Quentin Tarantino has suggested that there’s no concrete answer. In terms of filmmaking, the briefcase functions as a "MacGuffin," a plot device used to push the story forward. But for those who know their movie history, it's clear that Tarantino references a film noir classic with the Pulp Fiction briefcase.   In Pulp Fiction, contract killers Jules Winnfield (Samuel L. Jackson) and Vincent Vega (John Travolta) attempt to recover a briefcase for their gangster boss, Marsellus Wallace (Ving Rhames). In the process, they kill three men (including Alexis Arquette's Fourth Man) and later accidentally murder another, thus setting up a memorable “clean-up” sequence. When Jules and Vincent first recover the mysterious briefcase, a glowing light can be seen, though the camera never shows the contents. Vincent appears to have a spiritual experience, and the

 Several Young Avengers members are already set up in the Marvel Cinematic Universe with a team for Phase 4 or beyond very much possible. With multiversal threats and unknown villains more dangerous than Thanos just around the corner, new heroes have to step up and fill the gap that Tony Stark, Captain America, and Black Widow left after Avengers Endgame. Thankfully for the universe, a new lineup of young Avengers, aptly called the Young Avengers, may assemble soon. The Young Avengers were introduced in 2005 as an amateur team of vigilantes who were eager to live up to the legend of the Earth's Mightiest Heroes. At first, they're cast aside due to their lack of experience and their troubled past, but they soon prove their worth as capable heroes. With the help of a resurrected Vision and with Iron Lad (who eventually becomes the time-traveling villain Kang the Conqueror) as their founder and leader, the Young Avengers officially begin their career as superheroes. Kate Bishop (H

 John Carpenter’s Halloween is one of the most influential and beloved horror films of all-time. The movie has inspired countless slasher films that followed as well as several sequels, reboots and remakes. The success of these films varied, none living up to the original. However, in 2018 a new Halloween was released and infused the franchise with some new life. The new film is a direct sequel to the original, finding Laurie Strode and Michael Myers coming face-to-face again 40 years later. Though the film updates the story, it was obviously made with great love of the original in mind. Halloween 2018 is filled with fun references and connections to the 1978 version for fans to enjoy. Here are some of the ones you might have missed. Loomis As much as Michael Myers and Laurie Strode, Dr. Samuel Loomis has been an integral part of this franchise. The psychiatrist treated Michael before becoming convinced that the man was nothing but pure evil who had to be stopped. Loomis was played by

 With an underwhelming theatrical release and a popular director’s cut, Justice League will inevitably get a sequel, whether or not Zack Snyder is involved in its production. The Justice League is the main superhero team in DC Comics as well as the biggest possible team-up franchise for WB’s DCEU movies. Unlike their counterparts at Marvel, who released individual superhero films to build up to their team installments, the DCEU quickly initiated its crossover films and now has a stronger focus on standalone movies. Despite this, another Justice League movie will be made sooner or later and, depending on Zack Snyder’s involvement, there are several ways it could continue its predecessor’s story. The DCEU began in 2013 with Man of Steel, an epic retelling of Superman’s origin story, and a film with numerous references to both the Superman comics and the larger DC universe. Rather than developing a direct sequel to Man of Steel, Zack Snyder and WB released Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justi

 ABC's successful reality television show The Bachelorette showcases all different kinds of people. Contestants and winners come in many varieties.

They wonder about their life, their career, their education, etc. Many Bachelorette alums go on to become social media influencers after their season aires. However, fans may be surprised to know how much education some of the winners of The Bachelor have, making them technically the "smartest" winners. Garrett Yrigoyen Garrett Yrigoyen was the winner of Becca Kufrin's season. The two were engaged and seemed happy together. Unfortunately, they recently ended their relationship and Garrett has publicly moved on with his new girlfriend.

 Tom Waits made a name for himself in the 1970s as a popular jazz musician. As his career progressed, his unique style and look were tailor-made for a film career. Mostly appearing in smaller roles, Waits' many connections in the film industry have allowed him to rub shoulders with some of the most noted filmmakers in Hollywood. Whether he's playing regular Joes or strange weirdos, Waits is instantly recognizable in almost everything he appears in. Some of his roles are more memorable than others and have garnered high scores on IMDb. 10Seven Psychopaths (2012) - 7.2 Seven Psychopaths tells the story of a struggling screenwriter who looks for inspiration by getting involved with various strange characters. His best friend is an actor who makes a living by kidnapping rich people's dogs for ransom money, and together they get tangled up with a gangster after stealing his dog. Though an indie film, Seven Psychopaths is considered one of the best dark comedies of all time. Tom

 “They’re one-name movie stars,” explains the Somerville Theatre’s creative director Ian Judge. “Cage. Travolta. So many of their roles are iconic… so many career highs and lows.” But we’re sticking with the highs right now for “Face/Off: Travolta/Cage,” a 10-week, 19-film series of double features currently running at the recently refurbished, 108-year-old movie palace in Davis Square. Every Tuesday night during the months of March and April, a film starring John Travolta is followed by one starring Nicolas Cage, culminating on May 3 with “Face/Off,” director John Woo’s delirious 1997 action extravaganza in which the actors literally wear each other’s faces for most of the running time, doing spot-on impersonations of one another in a madcap, meta-movie hall of mirrors and balletic gunplay. Fun fact: “Face/Off” was the first time I ever went to see a movie and then went back to watch it again the very next day. According to Judge, the mashup of these mercurial movie stars was a natura

 The allure of Hollywood is hardly a mystery: stardom, status, the satisfaction of succeeding in an incredibly difficult competitive field. And considering so many actors dream of making it in Tinseltown, it'd seem almost absurd to give it up once they've gained recognition. And yet, many actors have opened up about the struggles of succeeding in the entertainment industry. Every so often, when an actor announces their retirement, the industry celebrates their accomplishments with a lifetime achievement award and sends them off into the abyss with trumpets and fanfare. However, sometimes, an actor's retirement plans are short-lived, and Hollywood lures them back into the limelight. 10Joe Pesci's 'Retirement' Lasted 7 Years Joe Pesci announced his retirement in 1999 after spending close to 40 years in the industry, stating he wanted to pursue a musical career and enjoy life away from the camera. Since his 'retirement,' Pesci has starred in 3 films: The Go

 "I just want you to know the wrath that you have just invited onto yourself." Maintaining the mystery behind a movie's plot before it hits theaters can be a difficult task -- especially when there are quite a few actors with loose lips! And to make matters worse, these celebs spend a lot of time talking about the film in interviews and appearances long before it premieres, leaving a lot of opportunities for details to be spilled. While spoilers can be a big problem in the movie industry, most of the time it's a total accident. Although some fans will be disappointed, sometimes the celebrity slip up actually creates more interest in the film. But at the end of the day, everyone makes mistakes and thankfully none of these spoilers totally ruined the film. Find out what went down when these actors spoiled their films… 1. Channing Tatum Channing Tatum recently spoiled the ending of his movie "Dog" -- but he did it on purpose! He explained that since there are a
