Drama is the hardest genre to rank for rewatchability because great and rewatchable are not always the same gift. Some dramas devastate you once and leave you staring at a wall. Some impress you more than they move you. The ones that stay in your life are rarer. They are the films that keep changing shape as you change.

When it comes to “happily ever after,” no one does it better than Disney. Throughout the prolific studio’s illustrious career, it has given audiences some truly magical movie endings. Plotlines are tied up with a bow, emotional punches are given one final blow, and tears well up in the eyes of audience members, young and old.

If you like horror, but stick to Stephen King’s novels without diving into his short fiction, you're missing out. He’s written plenty of short stories and novellas, with some of the former being digestible in minutes, and some of the latter only taking about an hour or two to get through. Below, though, the genuinely short stuff is going to be focused on.

I honestly miss the time when trilogies were simple and wholesome instead of constantly chasing bigger action scenes in every single movie. A lot of modern franchises already start thinking about spin-offs, crossovers, and cinematic universes before the first film even has its own identity. And that's what ruins the foundation. Older trilogies had a more personal feeling; it felt like we were growing old with those characters after every installment, and they didn't exactly care about being greenlit for the next season or next spin-off.

While each blockbuster film tries its best to be a compelling piece of art that makes the most of out of the medium of cinema, they more often than not find themselves chained to the goal of being as big a financial success as possible, with the films that make the most money looked up to as prominent pillars of cultural cinema. The $1 billion box-office barrier is especially a prominent mark for any film to achieve, especially films that are a part of the action genre.

In honor of John Wayne's 119th birthday earlier this week, Fawesome TV has put together a list of some of the Duke's greatest Western hits, free of charge. From his collaborations with John Ford and Howard Hawks, spanning from the black-and-white era to true-blue Technicolor, the streaming platform allows for anyone to celebrate his decades-long Hollywood career through the month of May — and the month is almost over.

It has been 25 years since the turn of the century delivered not just one, nor just two, but several of the greatest thrillers of the 21st century so far. Indeed, 2001 was an exceptional year for fans of the genre. Suspenseful, filled with tension, and directed by some of the greatest filmmakers in the world, the best thrillers of 2001 have all aged like fine wine.

A lot of expensive movies are large. So one thing has to be clear before we get started: Epic cinema is not just scale. An epic has to make human feeling look small against history without making it meaningless. That is the trick.

One of the great elements of the sci-fi genre that has helped it stay relevant and impactful all these years later is just how easily it is able to not just stand on its own, but actively support other genres and styles of filmmaking. Whether it's sci-fi drama films like Her, sci-fi horror films like The Thing, or even sci-fi family movies like E.T. the Extra-Terrestrial, nearly every other genre can be merged and amplified with sci-fi elements.

I have rewatched The Lord of the Rings trilogy so many times that I already know entire scenes before they even begin. I know exactly when Sam will give his speech, when Gandalf will arrive at Helm’s Deep, and when the music will start swelling. Yet every few years, usually during winter or after a stressful week, I still end up going back to those films again. There is something strangely relaxing about spending eleven hours inside a story (you already know the ending of).

If you want to start reading Stephen King, you're probably going to feel overwhelmed with choices, just because he’s written so much. It’s fair to start with one of his novels, though. Technically, his earliest published works were short stories that appeared in magazines as early as the 1960s, and then some more in the early 1970s, but starting with Carrie, his first novel (from 1974), feels a bit more sensible. It’s not his very best novel, but it is generally very good, and it’s also not long. “Not long” is not something you can say about many Stephen King books… thankfully, though, some of those lengthy novels are great. If you're not scared by many pages and a good many disturbing scenes, then both The Stand and IT are also very compelling, and the kinds of works that'll help you see the light, regarding King as an author (more so than the adaptations of those novels, with all of them, so far, being flawed in one way or another). There’s also The Shining, which is a good bit longer than Carrie, but not quite as comparable to a brick in appearance as The Stand or IT, so that’s a good middle-ground, and another strong entry point.
