Three episodes into Fox’s animated comedy Grimsburg, I found myself reflecting on how quintessentially Will Arnett this latest Will Arnett role was. A self-loathing, alcohol-abusing detective trying and failing to get back into his family’s good graces, Marvin Flute is an amalgamation of some of the actor’s biggest roles: a little bit Bojack Horseman, a little bit Lego Batman, a little bit Terry Seattle from Murderville.
But Flute isn’t actually played by Will Arnett. He’s played by Jon Hamm, for some reason doing an overt imitation of Will Arnett. I’d known it was Jon Hamm, even, and I just forgot because that’s how well Hamm nails Arnett’s voice — the gravel texture, the snappy cadence, the whining edge. As a creative choice, it’s somehow at once low-key bizarre and disappointingly predictable. Which, come to think of it, could also describe Grimsburg in a nutshell.

In 2002, the Academy Awards first honored animated features with their own Oscar category — the inaugural winner was DreamWorks Animation’s Shrek. Before then, the stance on rewarding animated features was that there were too few to warrant a separate category; honorary Oscars were given to groundbreaking films like the animated/live-action hybrid Who Framed Roger Rabbit and the computer-animated Toy Story.
But with the founding of DreamWorks — and the expansion of other studios, such as stop-motion houses Aardman and Laika, the Irish outfit Cartoon Saloon, and animation departments within Sony and Netflix — there arose an abundance of animated titles that could compete with the output of cartoon titans Disney and Pixar.
While those two studios have led the pack with the most nominees and winners since the category’s debut two decades ago (Pixar with 11 wins, Disney Animation with four), it’s still a rarity for an animated feature to find recognition outside the category,...

The history behind the making of Quentin Tarantino's 1994 movie "Pulp Fiction" is almost as winding and complex as the movie itself, as the young director fought to get his sophomore film made in spite of what seemed like insurmountable odds. Among the difficulties facing Tarantino was the fact that his script was hand-written and barely legible, which isn't exactly the kind of thing that inspires faith in investors. Thankfully, he had the help of typist and photographer Julie Chen, who took Tarantino's handwritten script and typed it up, making it readable for executives. She also let him crash at her place and worked for free, which makes Chen the unsung Mvp of "Pulp Fiction," but someone else got a shout-out in the movie instead: her dead pet rabbit.
In an interview with CBS News in 2014, Chen revealed her full involvement in the creation of "Pulp Fiction" and shared some...

Lenny Henry has launched a scripted production outfit backed by the £50M ($61M) Banijay UK Growth Fund.
Henry is helming Esmerelda Productions with former EastEnders and Casualty exec Jon Sen. It will produce drama and comedy shows with an emphasis on working with under-represented writers, cast and crew.
British comedy legend and diversity lobbyist Henry will step down as CEO of his current Banijay-backed production house Douglas Road, with MD Angela Ferreira taking the reins. That company just saw ITV launch Three Little Birds, Henry’s drama inspired by the experience of his family settling in the UK in the 1950s, which was exec produced by Russell T Davies.
Banijay’s investment will enable Esmerelda to build its team and slate, while the deal includes a first look with distributor Banijay Rights. Banijay’s Growth Fund has so far taken stakes in the likes of James Norton and Kitty Kaletsky’s Rabbit Track,...

No Spaced. No The League of Gentlemen. No Smack the Pony or Goodness Gracious Me or The Royle Family or Brass Eye, or Red Dwarf or Father Ted or anything that belongs to the last century (side note: the late 90s were an incredible time for UK comedy). These are the 40 finest British comedy TV shows that have arrived since the year 2000, as nominated by our writers. Add in your favourites below, and it’s a party.
What’s cheering about this lot, apart from the fact that as comedies, they should all technically cheer us up, is how different they are. There’s the surreal chaos of Year of the Rabbit, and the sweet warmth of Lovesick, the Pythonesque bonkersness of Yonderland, the satirical might of The Thick of It and much more. Something for everyone, you might say.

Arthur Schmidt, the two-time Oscar-winning film editor who collaborated with director Robert Zemeckis on 10 films, including Who Framed Roger Rabbit, Forrest Gump and the Back to the Future trilogy, has died. He was 86.
Schmidt died Saturday of an unknown cause at his home in Santa Barbara, his brother Ron Schmidt told The Hollywood Reporter.
The second-generation film editor also cut three Mike Nichols features — The Fortune (1975), The Birdcage (1996) and Primary Colors (1998) — and two helmed by Michael Apted — Coal Miner’s Daughter (1980), for which he received his first Oscar nom, and Firstborn (1984).
His résumé over four decades included work on Marathon Man (1976), Jaws 2 (1978), Ruthless People (1986), Beaches (1988), The Rocketeer (1991), The Last of the Mohicans (1992) and Congo (1995), and he was brought in for three months to help tidy up the first Pirates of the Caribbean movie in 2003.

Once again. “John Wick: Chapter 4” (Lionsgate) ($5.99) is #1 at iTunes and Google Play, while “The Super Mario Bros. Movie” at $19.99 (Universal) is #1 at Vudu.
Like most weeks, Netflix’s top 10 movie list is topsy-turvy. New at #1 is “Run Rabbit Run,” an Australian horror film the streamer acquired out of the Sundance Film Festival’s Midnight section. It stars “Succession” actress Sarah Snook as a fertility doctor who notices her daughter’s strange behavior.
Beyond that, “Mario” is in two second-place spots while “Fast X” is #2 at Vudu, helped by its $19.99 price. “The Covenant” (MGM) is #3 at iTunes, “The Machine” (Sony) at $19.99 #3 at Vudu, with “Fast X” taking third at Google Play.

Writer/director Taika Waititi highlights his losing credentials at the beginning of the official Next Goal Wins trailer. He lost out on a Best Picture Oscar for Jojo Rabbit and even missed out on taking home a Teen Choice Award for Thor: Ragnarok. Of course, given that Next Goal Wins is about a team of losers, Waititi refrains from boasting about his Oscar win for Jojo Rabbit‘s screenplay, his Independent Spirit Awards win for Reservation Dogs, or his Writers Guild Awards win.
Next Goal Wins is inspired by a true story that the trailer teases “pretty much actually happened.” Michael Fassbender leads the cast as soccer coach Thomas Rongen, a down-on-his-luck, recently fired coach who is charged with turning around the world’s worst soccer team. Rongen reluctantly takes over head coach duties after the American Samoa soccer team lost to Australia 31-0 in 2001.

"Rabbit Hole," the upcoming Paramount+ series starring Kiefer Sutherland, is an ode to spy thrillers throughout the decades. Taking inspiration from the espionage movies of the '70s as well as the counterterrorism television shows of the turn of the new millennium, "Rabbit Hole" plays out like a greatest hits of the spy genre according to early reviews. In an exclusive interview with /Film's Vanessa Armstrong, showrunners John Requa and Glenn Ficarra explain that their influences travel further than just spy stories, ranging from "Breaking Bad" to the 1997 David Fincher film "The Game."
"Rabbit Hole" will inevitably receive comparisons to "24," and not just because of the presence of Sutherland. The show follows a twisty path as mysteries unfold and a simple procedural turns into something more complicated, although this time Sutherland switches his allegiances from the feds to the more lucrative and even more morally dubious world of corporate espionage.

It’s been almost 20 years since Peppa Pig first aired, and this popular UK children’s TV show is now a hit with preschoolers the world over, with the show’s achievements including over 350 episodes, eighteen music singles, and four theme parks across three continents.
While many top kids’ TV shows are so irritating they make parents rethink their life choices, the very best of children’s entertainment recognises that you have to win the grownups over too, and Peppa Pig, like Hey Duggee, is a prime example. Yes, Peppa herself is a total brat, and it’s all very Loud and Colourful, but the show also generously peppers (pun intended) the narrative with jokes for the grownups that mostly fly over the little ones’ heads:

The Critics Choice Awards recognize Once Upon a Time in Hollywood and Joaquin Phoenix’s Joker among the year’s best in film and TV.
On the eve of the Oscar nominations, the critics have given their vote. Quite literally as the 25th Annual Critics Choice Awards is in the history books—along with its diverse selection of winning films and television shows.
The big winners of the night include Once Upon a Time… in Hollywood, Parasite, 1917, and Joker. The Quentin Tarantino love letter to 1960s Tinseltown notably pulled a surprise win for Best Picture after missing out on the Best Director prize. Not that Tarantino went home otherwise empty handed, as he picked up the Critics Choice for Best Original Screenplay, as did Brad Pitt for Best Supporting Actor, and Barbara Ling and Nancy Haigh for Best Production Design.

The Oscar race is on.
And it’s about to get a lot more intense when the Academy of Motion Pictures Arts and Sciences announces the nominations for the 92nd Oscars on Jan. 13.
Golden Globes shutout “The Irishman” is favored to earn several nods, as will “Once Upon a Time in Hollywood,” which went home with three Globes. Noah Baumbach’s “Marriage Story” could also go into Oscars night with multiple nominations.
In the lead for best picture nominations are movies including “1917,” “The Irishman,” “Once Upon a Time in Hollywood” and “Parasite.”
Renée Zellweger is a sure bet to snag a nomination for her transformation in “Judy” and Adam Driver looks certain to be a nominee for his work in “Marriage Story.” The lead actor’s race is tight. Joaquin Phoenix and Driver are likely locks. But what about Taron Egerton? Will the freshly minted Globe winner make it to the Dolby on Feb.

How far ahead is Joaquin Phoenix in Oscars race after ‘Joker’ windfalls at BAFTAs and Golden Globes?
It’s been a great week for Joaquin Phoenix (“Joker”) leading up to the Oscar nominations on Monday, January 13. But does he have Best Actor already locked up? Not quite, but he’s getting there.
From the very beginning “Joker” seemed like a strong awards contender for Phoenix’s physically and emotionally demanding performance as the title DC Comics villain, but since the film as a whole is so divisive we didn’t necessarily think it would do as well as it has overall. But in addition to Phoenix’s win at the Golden Globes, the Hollywood Foreign Press Association also nominated it for Best Film Drama and Best Director (Todd Phillips), and Hildur Guðnadóttir won for her score.. And it’s the leading film at the BAFTAs with 11 nominations.

What We Do in Shadows creator Jemaine Clement spilled the beans at TCA this afternoon that Star Wars actor Mark Hamill will guest-star in season 2. He was mum as to who exactly Hamill will play.
Season 2 of the FX series based on the 2014 Clement-Taika Waititi vampire comedy film, premieres this spring.
Clement also mentioned today that Waititi won’t be back in season 2 to direct any episodes. The Jojo Rabbit and Thor: Ragnarok filmmaker helmed three episodes in season one.
“We tried to stay away from some things in the movie, but FX wanted. Otherwise, we try to stay away,” said Clement on the movie’s impact on the TV series. The FX show follows the nightly lives of three vampires, who’ve lived together for over 100 years, on Staten Island, NY.

Stars: Roman Griffin Davis, Thomasin McKenzie, Scarlett Johansson, Taika Waititi, Sam Rockwell, Rebel Wilson, Alfie Allen, Stephen Merchant, Archie Yates, Luke Brandon Field, Sam Haygarth, Joe Weintraub | Written and Directed by Taika Waititi
Jojo Rabbit is a film I wanted to love, should have loved, needed to love, but somehow I just didn’t. The clash in style, tone and subject matter is all too much for Taika Waititi to handle, as this film flops out of his hands into a silly mess on the floor.
Taika Waititi is a director that I’ve come to love over the last 2 years. The first film of his I saw was, to my shame, his blockbuster debut into the McU with Thor: Ragnarok, after that I managed to catch up on his previous work such as What We Do in the Shadows and Hunt for the Wilderpeople, both of which I loved.

With the nominations for Oscars 2020 upon us next week, we take an educated guess at what will be nominated... and who will win.
We’re in the thick of it now. Awards season mania is at its peak with the Golden Globes behind us and the Critics Choice Awards coming on Sunday. Yet for many awards watchers, these are just the appetizers before the main course: On Monday, the Academy Awards will announce the Oscar nominees for 2020.
Moving on a truncated timetable that will see the Oscars ceremony occur earlier than ever before on Feb. 9, the Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences is hoping to increase excitement for the telecast by airing closer to the end of year--and hopefully before who will win Best Picture becomes a foregone conclusion. Be that as it may, the question remains… just who will win Best Picture? More so than in the last few years,...
