Game Of Thrones fans “lost their minds” over the show’s finale.The actor, who is currently starring in the sci-fi movie Moonfall, played Samwell Tarly in all eight seasons of the HBO fantasy drama.Fans had waited seven seasons for the climactic showdown between dragon queen Daenerys Targaryen and the ruling Lannister clan.The fans were left extremely disappointed to the point where they started a petition to remake the final season, which racked up 1.8million signatures.Speaking to NME in a new interview, Bradley said: “We were never going to please everybody. People had invested too much.”He also took umbrage with people who said the cast and crew “knew it was going to be rubbish”.Bradley added: “We genuinely wanted it to be great.

Marry me, Jennifer Lopez? Perhaps the movie star’s beau Ben Affleck hasn’t popped the question just yet, but things are looking up for the couple who were photographed at Jennifer’s Marry Me Los Angeles movie premiere getting pretty cozy! J.Lo wore a gorgeous bridal-style white mini-dress, with long sleeves, lace detail, and an adorable shortened train that flipped out in the back. The “Let’s Get Loud” singer paired her dress with a silver clutch embroidered with white flowers and silver strappy pumps which also featured a flower-like details on the toe.

Rebecca Rubin Film and Media ReporterAfter living through a pandemic for nearly two years, Americans, as it turns out, were in desperate need of a laugh.That may explain why Paramount’s go-for-broke action comedy “Jackass Forever” triumphed at the domestic box office while Roland Emmerich’s disaster epic “Moonfall” turned into an epic disaster.“Jackass Forever,” the fourth installment in the ongoing saga of projectiles to the groin, collected $23 million from 3,604 North American locations in its debut, landing on the higher end of expectations. The latest “Jackass,” starring Johnny Knoxville, Steve-O, Wee Man and other daredevils from MTV days, had been widely expected to win the weekend, but its victory is still surprising and impressive because it has been some time since a pure comedy has claimed the top spot on box office charts.

director Roland Emmerich thinks Superhero and films are ruining the industry. He is among the many actors and directors that have lambasted the state of the movie business because these types of movies exist.

Jennifer Lopez, 52, wowed on Feb. 4 when she made an appearance on The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon in an eye-catching set of outfits. The singer performed her new song “Marry Me”, from the new film Marry Me, with Maluma, and wore a flattering white bikini top under a matching cropped blazer and a long skirt. Before she sang, she also wore a long bright red dress with spaghetti straps as she happily chatted with the show’s host, Jimmy Fallon.

“Moonfall.” The sci-fi action film stars Halle Berry and Patrick Wilson (who also starred in Emmerich’s “Midway”) as astronauts who take up the task of saving the Earth from colliding with the moon. “Game of Thrones” alum John Bradley co-stars as K.C. Houseman, a conspiracy theorist and amateur scientist who worms his way into the missions, as well as Carolina Bartczak as the ex-wife of Wilson’s Brian Harper and Michael Peña as her new husband.

“Moonfall.” If the big budget film had been his first acting offer after hanging up Samwell Tarly’s maester’s cloak and chains on “Game of Thrones,” though, the British actor might have said no.“Well, funnily enough, the thing upon leaving ‘Game of Thrones’ all those years ago now, I wasn’t quite sure what I wanted to do at the time, but I just knew that I didn’t want to do anything that was going to be comparable to it in any way really, because as soon as something is successful, a lot of clones of it start to appear. And you see a lot of ‘Game of Thrones’-esque projects starting up,” Bradley told TheWrap during a recent interview.

Brent Lang Executive Editor of Film and MediaWith much of the country bracing for or digging out from a nasty winter storm, two new releases are hoping to provide so much sizzle that moviegoers will brave the ice and snow to hit up their local multiplexes.In one corner: Lionsgate’s “Moonfall,” a disaster epic from Roland Emmerich, one of the most successful purveyors of cinematic destruction. In the other: Paramount’s “Jackass Forever,” the latest entry in the long-running series in which Johnny Knoxville, Steve-O and Wee Man risk life, limb and nether regions in the service of comedy. “Jackass Forever” scored a stronger Thursday previews showing, netting $1.7 million.

Roland Emmerich is known for directing some of cinema’s highest-grossing action and sci-fi epics. From the natural disasters of “The Day After Tomorrow” to the otherworldly invaders of “Independence Day,” the filmmaker’s decades of work have become pop culture phenomena.

John Bradley is speaking out about Game of Thrones.

the hallmarks of an Emmerich blockbuster — natural disasters, parents separated from children, the total annihilation of Manhattan — but with a twist so baffling, you pinch your arm to make sure you are really awake. No need to reach for your dream journal — it’s all painfully real.The lunar-cy begins during a routine space station mission in outer space with Jocinda (Halle Berry), Brian (Patrick Wilson) and another astronaut.

Jennifer Lopez and Maluma star in “Marry Me”, but Drake and Adam Levine were names thrown in the hat to portray Bastian.

Some people might look up at the moon and admire its glowing and desolate beauty. Director Roland Emmerich apparently sees a constructed hollow orb that may have been built by aliens.

Over the course of his almost four-decade career, Roland Emmerich is a filmmaker who has become synonymous with big-budget, CG-infused epics whose screenplays often challenge the laws of space and time. Few moviegoers who saw “The Day After Tomorrow,” “2012” or even “White House Down” thought they were anything more than overblown extravaganza and a nice escape from the monotony of the real world.

Peter Debruge Chief Film CriticThe joke of Netflix’s recent “Don’t Look Up” is that scientists discover a meteor headed straight for earth, and even with six months to plan, humanity is too skeptical and disorganized to prevent it. Meanwhile, in Roland Emmerich’s latest eye-roller, “Moonfall,” the joke is pretty much flipped: Everybody’s favorite satellite is set to collide with earth in, oh, a day or so, and that’s just enough time for two space jockeys to suit up, shuttle out and set things right.I say “joke” because “Moonfall” is designed to elicit incredulous laughter as its ludicrous plot snowballs from a high-concept hypothetical question (what if the moon suddenly changed course and came crashing toward earth?) to increasingly implausible complications on the theme, all while requiring Halle Berry, as acting director of NASA Jocinda Fowl, to keep a straight face while saying things like, “Everything we thought we knew about the nature of the universe has just gone out the window!” Like gravity, logic and how we define good acting.

this — this insipid, hackneyed, laughable joke of a motion picture — is actually really cool. And the weirdest part of all is, they’re kind of right.

Marc Malkin Senior Film Awards, Events & Lifestyle EditorWelcome to this week’s “Just for Variety.”Actor John Bradley is still defending the controversial “Game of Thrones” series finale against its very harsh critics, even more than two years after the show ended.“It is highly unlikely that we were ever going to please everybody,” the actor, who played Samwell Tarly on the long-running fantasy show, tells me on the latest episode of the “Just for Variety” podcast. “Chances are we were going to please a fraction of people… We almost couldn’t win.
