Note: The writer of this review watched Yellow Rose from home on a digital screener. Before making the decision to see it—or any other film—in a movie theater, please consider the health risks involved. Here’s an interview on the matter with scientific experts.

Eddie Van Halen, the beloved rocker whose namesake band dominated the charts, has died. A rep for Van Halen confirmed to Variety that he died on Tuesday following a long battle with cancer. He was 65.

Watch This offers movie recommendations inspired by new releases, premieres, current events, or occasionally just our own inscrutable whims. This week: The recent release of Gloria Steinem biopic The Glorias and Aaron Sorkin’s The Trial Of The Chicago 7—along with the ongoing protests in the streets of American…

Origin stories are a total drag, we know, but, after numerous sequels, spinoffs, and remakes (not to mention a film franchise that played fast and loose with the story’s lore), an origin story of Resident Evil might just be necessary at this point. And that’s exactly what we’re getting with Constantin Film’s new…

We’re a few weeks away from the premiere of the new season of David Letterman’s My Next Guest Needs No Introduction, his consistently engaging and often surprising Netflix talk show. Previous episodes found the likes of Barack Obama, Kanye West, Tina Fey, and Ellen DeGeneres cracking jokes about the late-night legends…

A West Wing Special To Benefit When We All Vote is coming to HBO Max on Oct. 15—and The A.V. Club has these exclusive images to share from the taping of the special.

Perhaps we’re stating the obvious here, but 2020 hasn’t been the best year for Broadway musical fans (or movie fans, or television fans). So far, the best thing theater kids have gotten was Disney+’s Hamilton release, but all that changed this week with the jaw-dropping spectacle that is Grocery Story: The Musical,…

Whether he’s painfully bored in quarantine or just nostalgic for his career from two years ago, Robert Downey Jr. has found a new outlet for his creative energy: turning Sherlock Holmes into an MCU-style cinematic/maybe-also-TV universe. Speaking during a panel at the Fast Company Innovation Festival, Downey Jr. and…

Anne Heche was sent packing on last night’s episode of Dancing With The Stars, but not before opening up about a much-publicized part of her life and career. In 1997, at the height of her stardom, the actor entered into a relationship with Ellen DeGeneres, who had famously come out as a lesbian that same year. A…

Donald Trump, President Of The United States, returned from the hospital last night eager to show once again just how great he’s feeling these days. Unlike the rest of the world, Trump apparently “[feels] better than I did 20 years ago!” while suffering the life-threatening effects of the coronavirus. He feels so good,…

For those keeping track, HBO Max just scored another point over its streaming rivals by unveiling its stockpile of the most precious of pop culture resources: Keanu Reeves movies. Although still unavailable on Roku, HBO Max does have something we can all agree is good and pure and nice—the ASMR of people, if you will.…

The first time we meet June Squibb’s Hubie Halloween character, Mrs. Dubois, she’s sporting an oversized T-shirt with a boner joke on it. Whether she actually gets the boner joke is another story, and the misunderstanding leads to a speech later in the film that’s chock-full of perfectly placed double entendres.

As if we haven’t heard enough conflicting information about Donald Trump contracting COVID, a new, very plausible theory has arrived to complicate our understanding of the situation even further: Trump infected himself on purpose because he’s an immortal alien-human hybrid who’s using his illness as a distraction from…

Marvel hasn’t gotten around to doing that all-female superhero team-up movie yet, so Simon Kinberg is apparently just doing it himself with The 355, a film about an all-female team of international super spies starring Jessica Chastain, Diane Kruger, Penélope Cruz, Lupita Nyong’o, and Fan Bingbing.

(This review reveals major plot points for Batman: Three Jokers #1 and #2.)

Remember that scene in the original Dawn Of The Dead where the host of the last on-the-air TV talk show, addressing his off-camera remaining crew, reminds everyone that you still have to laugh every once in a while? While nobody’s saying that we’re in the zombie apocalypse (for one thing, the infected there don’t…

It’s the perfect time for this particular TV Club 10, and not just because Gilmore Girls debuted 20 years ago, on October 5, 2000. The series, set in an unconventional small town in New England, has one of the most autumnal aesthetics in TV history; it’s difficult to picture Lorelai and Rory Gilmore not encased in…

Here’s what’s happening in the world of television for Tuesday, October 6. All times are Eastern. 

“Right Here, Right Now IV” lives in the space of teenage fantasy. The school-less, parent-less, unsupervised, unedited, uninhibited space where anything feels possible. With Craig’s deployment on the horizon, the teens conspire to send him off with great fanfare. A raucous game of paintball gives way to a spontaneous…

This morning, possibly as a reaction to MGM delaying No Time To Die and Cineworld closing all Regal theaters in the U.S. and U.K. (again), Warner Bros. announced that it was delaying Denis Villeneuve’s Dune from December 18 of this year to October 1, 2021—nearly a full year, in other words. At the time, the length of…

It’s winter, and the bright green foliage of seasons past looks dull and chilly in the newest chapter of The Third Day. Helen (Naomi Harris) is taking her daughters Tallulah (Charlotte Gairdner-Mihell) and Ellie (Nico Parker) on a surprise holiday to Osea Island. But the surprises are many on this trip. The place no…

It’s nearly November, which means we’re due for our annual check-in on Amazon’s adaptation of William Gibson’s The Peripheral. We first heard about it back in 2018 when Westworld showrunners Jonathan Nolan and Lisa Joy first started developing the project, and then we heard about it again in 2019 when Amazon picked up…

If there’s one thing we were apparently supposed to take away from the end of Game Of Thrones, it’s that the Targaryens are bad, they were always bad, and they will always end up being bad in the end for reasons that are often… imperceptible. So with HBO moving forward with a Game Of Thrones prequel all about the…

In an effort to do some Important Journalism, reporters have requested Dr. Anthony Fauci’s emails through the Freedom of Information Act lawsuits. For 2020 reasons, the U.S. Department of Health and Human Sevices attempted to push off some of those requests until after the election. But a federal judge recently…

According to Deadline, Netflix has decided to cancel plans for a fourth and final season of GLOW due to the various ongoing setbacks related to the COVID-19 pandemic. The final season of GLOW was announced last September, when there was no reason to think the Trump administration would grossly mishandle a pandemic…
