William Shatner turns 90 today! The science fiction series started in 1966 (none of us were born then, not even our founder!) but we’ve all watched him (and more than once). The iconic Captain Kirk of the Starship Enterprise is more celebrated today than ever, as Shatner remains the eternal face of the Star Trek saga. Shatner means a lot to us, as a performer and a human being. And because he’s so great (yes, we’re Trekkers and ...

Yesterday was Star Wars Day and many of you celebrated that day, wearing your favorite Chewbacca costume, playing with homemade lightsaber or binging the entire Saga from beginning to end. When we think Star Wars, we think Darth Vader, Luke Skywalker and of course, Princess Leia. She was (and still is) a true hero, a woman with a strong personality. Leia inspired countless earth-bound little girls everywhere to shoot for the moon (or space station), and ...

Last year we shared with you a post by Max Dana on the French silent movie The Artist, directed by Michel Hazanavicius starring Jean Dujardin and Bérénice Bejo. In her post Max wrote: ‘Jean Dujardin won the Cannes Film Festival’s Best Actor Award for his performance and I have heard the film has become the frontrunner to win Best Picture at the 2012 Oscars‘. As an Hollywood’s Golden Age expert, Max had a good intuition about it: The ...

French movie The Artist is the leading contender (with ‘Hugo’) in this year’s Oscar nominations and we are very proud it is. Back in November we mentioned in Hollywood’s Golden Age is back with The Artist that the film had become the frontrunner to win Best Picture at the 2012 Oscars, and there is a really good chance it will win! But let’s not put the cart before the horse here, other Oscar competition for best picture ...
