Universal Pictures released the trailer for “Renfield” that is coming out on April 14, 2023. Renfield, played by Nicholas Hoult, tries to escape the toxic relationship with his boss. We see flashbacks of incidents that suggest his boss might not be your typical psychotic boss.
When his boss announces himself at the door, he’s invited in and reveals himself to be Dracula, played by Nicholas Cage.
Most movie trailers I’ve seen over the years have been, “Meh… maybe.” I’m really looking forward to seeing this movie. But will “Renfield” be funnier than “Love at First Bite”?

“Strange World” is the third of three movies I saw during the Thanksgiving weekend. This animated family adventure received a CinemaScore rating of a B by moviegoers. Being the first Walt Disney Animation Studios movie to score below an A- in 30 years. I had three serious problems with this movie that could explain why it bombed at the theaters.

“Puss in Boots: The Last Wish” was the second of three movies I saw during the Thanksgiving weekend.
The original movie, “Puss in Boots,” came out 11 years ago. If you’re like me, you don’t remember that movie whatsoever. But don’t worry.
“The Last Wish” is a PURR-fect movie for the holidays.

“Glass Onion: A Knives Out Mystery” was the first of three movies I saw during Thanksgiving weekend.
The new Netflix movie is a sequel to “Knives Out” that came out in 2019. “Glass Onion” had a one-week run in theaters before it starts streaming on Friday, December 23, 2022. For a limited release movie, making $15 million US on 650 screens was quite amazing.
Why did “Glass Onion” only run for one week in the theaters? The answer might surprise you.

“Julie & Julia” author, Julie Powell, passed away from a cardiac arrest at age 49. She started a blog on Salon called the Julie/Julia Project in 2002. Her goal was to cook all 524 recipes in Julia Child’s “Mastering the Art of French Cooking” in one year.
The blog became a book, “Julie & Julia: 365 Days, 524 Recipes, 1 Tiny Apartment Kitchen,” in 2005. The book became a movie, “Julie & Julia,” starring Meryl Streep and Amy Adams, in 2009. If you read the book or seen the movie, you would think her life was all sunshine and roses.
Her death revealed a darker side of her life and for food writing.

Will Michael Myers return after the end of “Halloween Ends”?
If you’ve seen the movie, there’s no way in hell that he can return for another movie. Unless the next movie is set in Hell with Jason and Freddie. A “Halloween,” “Friday the 13th,” and “Nightmare on Elm Street” crossover is unlikely to happen.
The new movie is Jamie Lee Curtis’s last “Halloween” movie. The series could reboot with a different cast like it did for the two Rob Zombie movies in the late 2000s. The final scene of “Halloween Ends” hints at a possible sequel without Michael Myers.
That depends on whether the boogieman was inside the man or the mask.

Ryan Reynolds dropped two new videos about “Deadpool 3” on his YouTube channel. He asked Hugh Jackman to play Wolverine one more time and he said yes. They answered how they were going to handle Wolverine’s death in “Logan” and what to expect in the new movie.
