During World War II, the conflict wasn't fought only on battlefields in Europe, but also on the silver screens in the States. With the war half a world away, the best way to bring the seriousness of the conflict home was through film. So the U.S. packed up five directors and sent them into war zones — where they captured the fight and its aftermath for the citizens back home. Narrated by Meryl Streep with appearances by Steven Spielberg, Francis Ford Coppola, Guillermo del Toro, Paul Greengrass, and Lawrence Kasdan, Five Came Back premieres on Netflix March 31, 2017.

Okja

From Snowpiercer director Bong Joon Ho comes a different kind of monster movie. Unlike the traditional destructive creatures, crushing buildings and creating mass hysteria, this animal is more of a gentle giant. He's being kept safe by a young girl in South Korea's Gangwon Province, hiding out from Tilda Swinton and her multi-national company. The film also stars Ahn Seo-hyun, Jake Gyllenhaal, Paul Dano, Steven Yeun, Lily Collins, Devon Bostick, Byun Hee-bong, and Shirley Henderson and is slated for release June 28, 2017 on Netflix.

Introducing Handle Robot

Boston Dynamics has taken the wraps off its latest autonomous robot. Called Handle, it looks like it was inspired by a horse walking on its back legs — making it slightly more creepy than the company's previous designs. Despite the strange looks, Handle can definitely perform — tackling uneven terrain, steps, 100-pound loads, and even jumping over concrete barriers with impressive ease.

Behind the Scenes of Ghost in the Shell

Computer generated effects might get all the press when a film is released, but practical effects — puppets, animatronics, costumes — are better than ever. They can even rival their digital brethren for realism, and keep the audience out of the uncanny valley. Adam Savage visited Weta Workshop in New Zealand, where Richard Taylor gave him a look at the props and animatronics used for the upcoming movie Ghost in the Shell.

Not Just O.J.

He was a professional athlete, movie star, and pitchman that seemed to have broken not just a color barrier, but barriers plural, by not talking about race. And when he went on trial for the stabbing of his ex-wife and her friend, the televised court proceedings were perfectly concocted for American consumption. America loves to watch their celebrities fall even more than making them, and the case of O.J. Simpson crystallized this so perfectly it couldn't have been scripted any better. But even more than the tawdry gawking at murder victims and a man whose life was coming apart live on TV, the O.J. trial held a mirror up to America and forced us to look at ourselves, revealing some very uncomfortable truths.
