You always hear about frustrated filmmakers who didn’t have enough time or money to make the movie they wanted to. You rarely, if ever, hear the opposite: a studio giving filmmakers more time and more money to make a movie even better than it already was. But that’s what happened with Ballerina, the latest film in the John Wick franchise. Ballerina (which is officially titled From the World of John Wick: Ballerina) was first set to hit theaters last year. But, after the success of John Wick: Ch

Handwriting notes in class might seem like an anachronism as smartphones and other digital technology subsume every aspect of learning across schools and universities. But a steady stream of research continues to suggest that taking notes the traditional way—with pen and paper or even stylus and tablet—is still the best way to learn, especially for young children. And now scientists are finally zeroing in on why. A recent study in Frontiers in Psychology monitored brain activity in students tak

In the cold, ancient reaches of the cosmos, two galaxies are duking it out in a battle that’s been raging for billions of years.

While previous looks at the movie had a more inspirational tone, the latest has the Man of Steel defending his heroic actions in an interview with Lois Lane. There’s clearly going to be some conflict here between what Superman is trying to do and how the world perceives him. Also, Lex Luthor is here, and is appropriately menacing.
