Peter Pan (Levi Miller) is the kid who wants to find his mother before he’s the boy who never grew up. That is, before he never grew up, he was just an orphaned, little boy missing his mother. Imprisoned in an orphanage with the ominously hoarding Mother Barnabas (Kathy Burke), Peter leads a mini-rebellion and…
Robert De Niro. Jeffrey Dean Morgan. Kate Bosworth. Morris Chestnut. Gina Carano. Dave Bautista. The cast list reads like a who’s who of good-but-not-great films that have littered the landscape of early spring and late summer.

Then, there?s Christmas Eve. When a car…
I remember seeing The Return of the Jedi?as a seven year old. Sure, I’d seen?A New Hope?and?The Empire Strikes Back. I couldn’t wait for the good guys to bust in and reclaim?Han (remember, we didn’t know for sure he could be rescued but we?hoped), and for the evil Empire to be destroyed. In those days…
?Twas the night before Star Wars and all ?round the world, Lay a quiet before storms of fandom unfurled All the lightsabers were wrapped and grown men had to wait To play with their brand new remote BB-8s.
