The most interesting bit is where [...]
There have been a lot of conversations about the lack of creativity in Hollywood recently. This has always been a general complaint but with the WGA and SAG-AFTRA strike and studio execs responding by threatening to use AI to replace them, it has become a more serious discussion.

Writhing in Development Hell, a term Hollywood uses when a project is stuck in limbo for too long before it is either abandoned or greenlit, can be a death knell for a project.

The film [...]
Since time immemorial, humanity has sought to fit into a social circle. Whether this is by design or intrinsic is still up for debate.

I’m here to say that Greta Gerwig’s Barbie is a refreshing, spritely comedy that holds its PG-13 rating close to its chest. A number of its themes do run more adult and high-brow.
