David Koepp has spent more than three decades helping bring some of Steven Spielberg’s biggest movies to life, from Jurassic Park and The Lost World to War of the Worlds and Indiana Jones and the Kingdom of the Crystal Skull. Now the screenwriter is reuniting with Spielberg for Disclosure Day, an original alien thriller based on an idea Spielberg has been carrying around for decades. In our exclusive interview, Koepp reflects on the partnership that began when he was just 29, including an admission that Spielberg's optimism balanced his own cynicism.

Learn how Koepp built Disclosure Day's sprawling UFO mythology, why journalists make such compelling protagonists, and how the film tackles government transparency in an increasingly divided world. He also explains how the project evolved from Spielberg's story into their shared narrative and even settles a long-standing Jurassic Park question involving him being cast as a famously doomed character known as "Unlucky Bastard."

Although it’s been more than a decade since the last Scary Movie, the latest entry still delivers exactly what fans expect: a rapid-fire barrage of horror parodies, celebrity cameos, gross-out gags, and jokes that range from surprisingly sharp to spectacularly dumb. The new installment takes aim at everything from the recent Scream movies and Final Destination to M3GAN, Get Out, Sinners, and more, with returning favorite characters leading the chaos. Not every joke lands, our reviewer admits, but you’ll find plenty to laugh at.

The bigger question is whether some of the franchise's old habits have aged well. While there were a handful of genuinely hilarious bits and some clever franchise satire, this review argues that the movie crosses a line when it stops mocking Hollywood trends and starts targeting more vulnerable groups. The result is a sequel that can still be funny in bursts but also feels stuck in an earlier era — sometimes charmingly so, and sometimes for all the wrong reasons. Decide for yourself if you think this unevenness ultimately keeps Scary Movie 6 from fully living up to its legacy.

The death of Anthony Head has hit Buffy the Vampire Slayer fans especially hard. Head was an established stage actor before his stint on screen, but his portrayal of Rupert Giles meant so much to an entire generation of TV viewers beyond the show itself. While Head's career spanned appearances on Doctor Who, Merlin, Ted Lasso, and more, it's the tweed-clad Watcher with a sharp wit and an even bigger heart that remains his defining television role.

What made Giles special wasn't just that he mentored Buffy; it was that he cared about her as a person first and a Slayer second. Come along as we pay tribute, exploring how Head transformed what could have been a stock authority figure into one of television's most memorable father figures, and why the relationship between Giles and Buffy remains the emotional core of the series. Let’s look back at a performance that helped shape later shows and left a lasting mark on the people who grew up watching it.
