Frodo and Sam set off on a journey to take the one ring back to the fires of Mordor to finally destroy it. It was a quest that tested their physical, emotional, and mental strength to their limits. One hobbit would not have made it without the other, that is for sure. Unlike the elves

If you’ve already watched or binge-watched the Jurassic Park movie, you are probably one of those people wondering if it is something that actually has a possibility of happening in real life.

Usually, Oscar wins, and critical acclaim come hand in hand. If a movie is considered Oscar worthy it’s almost always going to be a movie that has critics gushing over it, right?

We’ve all had awkward moments when applying for job roles, and the interview process can sometimes be pretty cringe for a lot of us. Hollywood stars might seem like they’re otherworldly beings, but they really aren’t all that different from you or I. Even the biggest actors and actresses in the world have had some

Some films get shunned by the critics, so many of us never hear about them. The critics are not perfect themselves, and often make errors of judgment, panning a film that is actually good viewing.

It is often said to get ahead in life it is not what you know but who you know, and in Hollywood’s bubble that is even more relevant. Luckily for the kids of cinema’s greatest directors, they have been given an easy pass onto the movie sets. There’s nothing wrong with getting a helping hand
