We're visiting the Kingdom of Arendelle for a Disney Animated movie based on Hans Christian Andersen’s fairy tale “The Snow Queen.” This icy tale makes for perfect pre-holiday viewing, and audiences agreed when they spent over a billion dollars at the box office to see it, making it the highest-grossing film of 2013 and the highest-grossing animated film of all time, at that time. And it wasn’t just audiences who felt the magic, critics agreed and the film racked up awards, including two Oscars:

Legends of Halloween has come to the end of the road. A twisty cliffside road high in the Carpathian Mountains. And at the end of that road, there is a castle. Owned by a kindly old count named… Vlad. The year is 1992 and Francis Ford Coppola is bringing Bram Stoker's classic gothic horror novel to the big screen. Starring Gary Oldman in the titular role, the stacked cast includes Anthony Hopkins, Winona Ryder, Keanu Reeves, Richard E. Grant, Cary Elwes, and Billy Campbell. The adaptation of the

Brundle, played by Jeff, uh, Goldblum, is a reclusive scientist on the cutting edge of baboon-killing technology. While trying to crack the code of instantaneous teleportation, he recklessly experiments on himself. But when a common housefly gets caught in the machine, the result is an exercise in body horror that only David Cronenberg could deliver. The film, a remake of the 1958 classic, co-stars Geena Davis,

Legends of Halloween gets in touch with its inner girl with a 1992 “satirical surrealistic black comedy fantasy film” - and yes, that’s how Wikipedia categorizes it. Directed by Back to the Future and Who Framed Roger Rabbit? Helmer Robert Zemeckis, this film defied categorization just as hard as its main characters defy the laws of nature. Meryl Steep and Goldie Hawn star as two image-obsessed rivals for the affection of plastic surgeon-turned-cosmetic mortician Bruce Willis, when they both learn

Legends of Halloween is back for another spooky season with a throwback from twenty years ago, which is itself a throwback to the classic Universal Monster movies. Director Stephen Sommers had found success five years earlier in reanimating another Universal monster, The Mummy, with the Legend of ‘99 film starring Brendan Fraser.

Meanwhile, action/comedies like Beverly Hills Cop and Romancing the Stone found success with audiences. Overall, theatergoers preferred lighter fare as opposed to weighty adaptations like Dune and, well, 1984.

We're back with a film about filmmaking, spycraft and celebrity, starring the one and only Nicolas Cage. In the movie, Cage plays a fictionalized version of himself, down on his luck and struggling to connect with his teenage daughter, when a wealthy fan (who may or may not be a kidnapper and arms dealer) makes Cage an offer he can't refuse. Co-starring Pedro Pascal, this two-hander is equal parts bromance, action-comedy, and homage to Cage’s lengthy career. And while director Tom Gormican’s debut
