‘Snowpiercer’ TV Series Ordered by TNT, Starring Jennifer Connelly and Daveed Diggs!!!

Joon-ho Bong is a fascinating filmmaker who brings fantastic visuals and a pointed morality to every one of his tales. His talents were most recently put on display in the Netflix film Okja, which arrived more than 10 years after his breakthrough film The Host, a creature feature with a now-familiar pro-environmentalism slant. But for my money, the 2013 film Snowpiercer, based on the French post-apocalyptic graphic novel “Le … Continue reading ‘Snowpiercer’ TV Series Ordered by TNT, Starring Jennifer Connelly and Daveed Diggs!!!

HBO Orders Andy Samberg’s Mockumentary Series ‘Tour de Pharmacy’!!

There was plenty of good television in 2015, but one of the minor delights that got less than its due was 7 Days in Hell, the hour-long mockumentary about a fictional tennis match between Andy Samberg‘s swaggering, drug-addled American and Kit Harrington‘s uptight British player. The laughs were big and consistent in that film, thanks as much to the two main stars as to guest stars like Lena Dunham and Will … Continue reading HBO Orders Andy Samberg’s Mockumentary Series ‘Tour de Pharmacy’!!
