Popculturology is the founding publication of The Omnicosm. It was originally launched as a news site in 2012 before going dormant in 2015. It was resurrected as a newsletter in 2022.
The weekly newsletter publishes on Friday and covers all aspects of pop culture: Movies, TV, trailers, box office news, Star Wars, Marvel, Saturday Night Live and more.
Why do they have to keep being so weird about this movie? PLUS: Chloe Fineman leaves ‘SNL,’ Sam Neill passes away, and it’s obvious why the live-action ‘Moana’ remake failed.
The live-action remake is a critical disaster and on track to be a box office disappointment. PLUS: New trailers for ‘Dune: Part Three’ and ‘Godzilla Minus Zero,’ the ‘Supergirl’ bakeoff, and they’re rebooting ‘Free Willy.’
Great source material. Fantastic casting. But a script that wildly missed the mark. PLUS: Comcast spins off NBCUniversal, Sam Altman biopic rescued, and Olivia Rodrigo gets her own Lego lineup.
I wish I could explain the choices the latest DCU film made. PLUS: Amazon drops the Sam Altman biopic, Keanu Reeves joins the next Lego movie, and ‘Digger’ just wants to win an Oscar for Tom Cruise.
Are we heading toward another very big Spidey box office? PLUS: Jim Carrey’s Grinch steals a sequel, Anya Taylor-Joy joins ‘The Hunt for Gollum,’ and Derpy Tiger gets the Lego treatment.
The director’s latest film feels like the capstone to his career. PLUS: First trailers for ‘Whalefall’ and ‘The Social Reckoning,’ Jake Johnson and Damon Wayans Jr. are together again, and we’re going back to ‘Jump Street’ ... ‘24 Jump Street.’
