ekm and Prometheus with an Eye on 2020!

What's happening on AICN in 2020? ekm and Prometheus are here to tell you!
___________________________
Like most geeky fanboys, I discovered AICN during the Wild West days of the early inter-webs. The site became a regular daily refresh as I followed the development of the STAR WARS Prequels, as well as my other great love, THE LORD OF THE RINGS. Today we take fan sites for granted, but in the late 90s, Ain’t It Cool News was wholly unprecedented, and a Mecca for the like-minded.
While I would later go on to write for other up-and-coming websites in the two decades that followed, and ultimately found myself the director of two independent feature films, AICN retained power by virtue of its brand recognition, its contributions to fan culture, and it’s sheer longevity. Many of those original writers have since moved on, but in doing so, they opened the door for me to participate in some small way. I consider it a source of personal pride to be able to do so.
When I joined the staff in 2019, my objective was to bring something new to the site. My goal was not to reinvent the wheel, but rather to introduce new flavors to the overall recipe. Anyone who has read my serials on STAR WARS, SPIDER-MAN, BATMAN, or Horror Films, will immediately recognize that I’m not so much interested in posting news scoops or traditional reviews; my interest is more in critical analysis.

‘Fear Street’ Spoiler Review: Netflix’s Horror Trilogy Mines Nostalgia While Looking to the Future

Netflix’s Fear Street trilogy, a three-week spree of crimes against innocent Shadysiders, ended on Friday. It’s possibly the biggest slasher-movie event since the 2018 Halloween broke box-office records for its franchise and production company. There have been other slasher flicks since then; the bloody body-swap Freaky comes to mind as one genre torch-bearer, seen mostly on VOD late last year. However, with its staggered release pattern — instant summer sequels, now available to stream! — Fear Street has built up a sustained momentum this month that goes unmatched by other recent entries in the genre. We took a non-spoiler look at all three Fear Street films as they launched: Part One: 1994 on July 2, Part Two: 1978 on July 9, and Part Three: 1666 on July 16. Now, as the dust settles in the town of Shadyside, we’re ready to dive into the deep end with a spoiler-filled look at the plot twists, character deaths, and buried themes of the whole decade-hopping trilogy.

Yes, ‘Eternals’ Will Explain Why These Superheroes Didn’t Help Out During ‘Avengers: Endgame’

Eternals may become the latest example of the many balancing acts that any shared universe will inevitably be asked to navigate. After all, constructing a timeline with a lived-in sense of history must stand up to scrutiny. While fans should generally approach movies with the benefit of the doubt (these are, after all, fictional works made up by human beings rather than an actual historical retelling), creators tend to obsess over these sorts of details. That’s why Marvel producers Nate Moore and Kevin Feige offer reassurances that there’s a very good canonical reason the Eternals didn’t bother showing up to help Captain America fight Thanos. Entertainment Weekly has the lowdown on all aspects of Eternals , from director Chloe Zhao’s influences to introductions for each of the main heroes. There’s also an interesting nugget included in the cover story about the movie’s place in the Marvel Cinematic Universe. Described as “…largely a standalone story, focusing specifically on th
