For Daisy Kakkar, stepping onto the set of Ridley Scott’s Dog Stars was both exciting and daunting. Making her feature-film debut alongside an acclaimed cast including Jacob Elordi and Benedict Wong, Kakkar found herself working under one of cinema’s most celebrated directors and learning to adapt to his famously fast-paced approach to filmmaking. Kakkar plays Mary, a…
“It really was an adventure of a lifetime.” Those are the final words spoken in One Last Adventure: The Making of Stranger Things 5, and they land with the kind of weight only a decade-long journey can earn. I started watching Stranger Things when I was 15 years old. Now I’m 25, and like the cast who grew…
The more I think about Stranger Things, the more it feels impossible to ignore how closely it mirrors Harry Potter especially when it comes to Will Byers. At this point, Will isn’t just “the kid who went missing in season one.” He’s something darker, something more dangerous. He’s a Horcrux. In Harry Potter, Voldemort survives by splitting his…
(Spoilers Ahead) Stranger Things Volume 2 might be my favourite part of the entire show so far. From the pacing to the emotional payoff, it feels confident in what it’s doing and, more importantly, it knows that its strength lies in character rather than spectacle.

Christopher Nolan Interstellar, Oppenheimer, Inception, Dunkirk Nolan’s films were some of the first…
With cinema constantly evolving and streaming platforms becoming more dominant, the theatrical experience feels more important than ever. Studio deals with companies like Warner Bros and Netflix continue to blur the line between streaming and cinema releases, raising questions about the future of movie theatres. Despite that uncertainty, 2026 is shaping up to be a…
It’s that time of year again when I look back at my personal TV highs and lows and shout out a few favourites that might have slipped under the radar. It’s been a surprisingly strong year, with plenty of series giving films a proper run for their money. I’m sure I’ve missed many of your…
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Season 5 hits with a bang and doesn’t just raise the stakes it blows the doors clean off. It packs so much punch. We jump right back in where we left off: Hawkins torn open by a massive rift to the Upside Down, now living under full military quarantine. Everyone knows Vecna is still lurking, so…
“I’ll Be Back.” When Arnold Schwarzenegger first uttered those now-iconic words, “I’ll be back,” the audience at London’s Eventim Apollo erupted into spontaneous applause and cheers of delight. For one night only on Sunday, James Cameron’s legendary sci-fi classic The Terminator returned to the big screen this time with a live orchestra performing the powerful score. The effect was electrifying. A massive drum, struck…
