If the video for "Lost in Japan" is any indication, Shawn Mendes is a big fan of Lost in Translation.
Mendes recreated some of the most memorable scenes from the 2003 film for his latest music video.
Sofia Coppola's romantic comedy-drama stars Bill Murray as Bob Harris, a sardonic middle-aged actor who falls in love with Charlotte (Scarlett Johansson) during their brief stay in Tokyo.
In the video, 20-year-old Mendes casts himself as Harris, donning his famous bathrobe, reenacting his comically awkward whiskey commercial and chasing after a girl reminiscent of Johansson's character. Mendes' love interest in the ...

Shawn Mendes recreates Sofia Coppola’s Lost in Translation for his romantic, funny “Lost in Japan” video. For the visual, both Mendes’ original version and the Zedd remix are combined.
Throughout the Tokyo-set video, Mendes and 13 Reasons Why star Alisha Boe embody Bill Murray and Scarlett Johansson’s memorable characters from Coppola’s acclaimed film. Like Murray’s Bob Harris, Mendes is seen alone in his hotel room, films a whiskey commercial, strikes up a conversation with Boe’s take on Charlotte in an elevator and later attends karaoke. Zedd...

The 1967 Spider-Man animated series has an amazing theme song, but also featured some incredible background music.
Everyone knows the iconic theme tune to the Spider-Man animated series that ran from 1967-1970 on ABC, and then endlessly in syndication after that. You know the one I'm talking about. It has the lyrics that want you to know that the title character "does whatever a spider can" and that he "spins a web, any size" and "catches thieves, just like flies" thanks, of course, to his "radioactive blood." The fact that they managed to get the words "radioactive blood" into a theme song will never not be amazing to me.
The tune is such a big deal that it made its way (in various sneaky forms) into Sam Raimi's Spider-Man trilogy, and most recently, in full orchestral form thanks to Michael Giacchino in Spider-Man: Homecoming. The Ramones put...

Sofia Coppola movies are defined by desolate landscapes, lonely characters, a wry sense of humor, and painterly compositions. For fans of this aesthetic, it’s pretty hard to get it wrong, and Coppola’s nearly 20-year track record attests to the consistency of her talent. From her feature-length debut “The Virgin Suicides” through her latest endeavor, “The Beguiled,” Coppola’s dreamlike visuals and deadpan tone have remained a distinctive voice in American cinema, one filled with gentle, forlorn faces and a world that always seems as though it’s on on the verge of devouring them whole. (If there isn’t already a Reddit forum theorizing that all Coppola movies exist in a single universe governed by the laws of sadness, someone should kick it up.)
While Coppola’s career was set in motion to some degree by the influence of a very famous father, her filmmaking capabilities are hardly dictated by Francis’ accomplishments.

This is the first part of a series exploring significant films from the careers of directors showing new work at the 2017 Cannes Film Festival.
“In the end we had pieces of the puzzle, but no matter how we put them together, gaps remained. Oddly shaped emptiness mapped by what surrounded them, like countries we couldn’t name. What lingered after them was not life, but the most trivial list of mundane facts. A clock ticking on the wall, a room dim at noon, the outrageousness of a human being thinking only of herself.”
— “The Virgin Suicides”
Sofia Coppola didn’t write the searching, wonderstruck narration that ends “The Virgin Suicides,” but it often feels as though her entire body of work has been devoted to clarifying that crucial passage from the Jeffrey Eugenides novel on which she based her directorial debut. Filling its gaps. Deepening its imagery. Solving its missing femininity.

Mo Ryan at TVSquad.com posted the news earlier today about the pilot for Battlestar Galactica: Blood & Chrome (Spartactica for short) getting the green light. The press release is at the end of the post. Here is the part that concerns Caprica's future, from Mark Stern:
"To be really categorical about it, this is not about finding something else so we can get rid of 'Caprica," Stern said. "I don't know the fate of 'Caprica' yet, but, if anything, 'Blood & Chrome' going to series would only be a great opportunity to pair it with something.'
And we'll find out exactly what the new round of conceptual ping-pong with the Battlestar verse means for Caprica by November 15. If someone bothers to mention it, that is.
Interestingly, TVShowsonDVD.com reports that the Caprica Season 1.5 DVD can already be pre-ordered on Amazon. With six episodes left to air,...
