It’s no secret that 2017’s Power Rangers (read our 6.5/10 review here) didn’t set the box office alight. Produced on a budget of around $100m, the film grossed a disappointing $142m at the worldwide box office and, sadly, a sequel never moved forwards. In the years following that film the franchise has moved homes from Saban, original creators of the American franchise, to toy company Hasbro. Now The Hollywood Reporter reports that Habsro and producing partners Paramount Pictures are deep in development on a new version of the franchise. The company are currently said to be in talks with Jonathan…

You’re just not the show I thought you were going to be and I think it may be time to break up. “Chapter 6” of The Mandalorian had all the promise of a classic Western train heist, cleverly dressed up as a…

The Mandalorian airs new episodes weekly via the Disney+ streaming service and comes to the UK in March 2020. Synopsis The Mandalorian helps a rookie bounty hunter who is in over his head. Review The Mandalorian is becoming an incredibly divisive show for me. This week I find myself continuing to struggle with the lack of a strong overarching plot and the series’ continual reliance on a story-of-the-week. Given that the series has struggled to settle on a run time, this being a particularly short episode by comparison, it’s a shame that it chose to go to familiar territory in…
