Minority Mindset

Okay, so I checked out the Rotten Tomatoes score for The Family Plan 2 after it dropped on the streaming service on November 21st, and it’s not looking great – currently sitting at a 20% rating. But, heads up, that’s only based on 10 reviews right now, so I’m expecting that score to probably change as more people weigh in.

It was incredibly moving to see Chadwick Boseman’s wife, Taylor Simone Ledward-Boseman, at the ceremony. And Viola Davis, who shared the screen with him in his last film, Ma Rainey’s Black Bottom – a performance that rightly earned him a posthumous Oscar nomination – delivered a particularly poignant speech. She confessed she simply couldn’t accept that he’s ‘gone,’ saying she has to believe he’s still with us, and found it impossible to even use the word ‘death’ when thinking about him. It was a beautiful, heartbreaking tribute.

Recently released photos from the set of the upcoming survival horror film reveal a devastated city, likely Prague, hinting at a catastrophic event. These images also provide some insight into when and where the movie takes place. They confirm the film is set in Raccoon City, the zombie-infested town from the original Resident Evil video games (via V Arno/X and The Prague Reporter).

For many years, Walt Disney World and Disneyland were considered the ultimate American family vacation, something people saved and eagerly anticipated. However, Disney’s financial reports suggest that era is fading, and the company now acknowledges this shift.

A playful nod to a famous lyric, “Who can say if I’ve been changed for the better?” welcomes the release of Wicked, the highly anticipated sequel. Along with the movie, theaters are offering special promotional popcorn buckets. Staying true to the Wicked brand, there are several options, but Regal’s Wicked: For Good bucket is generating the most buzz. It’s a first for movie snacks – it actually plays music! The big question is whether this addition will enhance the moviegoing experience or be a regrettable step too far.

It’s been almost ten years since the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles – Raphael, Donatello, Leonardo, and Michelangelo – appeared in a live-action film. Now, with Paramount being led by Skydance, producer Neal H. Moritz is working on a new TMNT movie to bring the heroes back to the big screen.

Typically, actors stick closely to the script when filming a TV show. While some shows allow for improvisation, Nathan Fudyk shared at Motor City Comic-Con—during a panel led by Joe Deckelmeier of Ebaster—that Firefly didn’t often allow for actors to go off-script.
