The disastrous Star Wars Holiday Special aired exactly once, on November 17th 1978. For decades, George Lucas attempted to erase all trace of it from pop culture, and very nearly succeeded. So here’s an exhaustive history of how and why it happened.

In 1950, Cinderella saved Disney from destruction. In 2015, Cinderella went on a wild journey from swashbuckling adventure to a visually sumptuous but emotionally vacuous film that set the template for the Live Action Remakes that now threaten to swallow cinema whole.

This is not the story of the Gladiator II that you will see in cinemas. This is the story of the time Russell Crowe went rogue and commissioned a script for a Gladiator sequel where Maximus returns from the dead to save the early Christian Church from annihilation and is cursed by the gods to live forever.

Francis Ford Coppola is undeniably one of the greatest filmmakers who has ever lived. Megalopolis is the film he has been chasing for nearly 40 years. But when the posters declare “From The Man Who Brought You The Godfather and Apocalypse Now”, they should probably add “And Live Cinema and Tetro.”

Zack Snyder has a reputation as a Director’s Cut director: but what does that actually mean? And what happens when he’s given the chance to simultaneously make a Directors Cut and a ‘theatrical’ cut that will never go to theatres?
