Minority Mindset

Okay, so I was checking Prime Video’s charts today, October 11, 2025, and you won’t believe this – *Knight and Day* is currently at number 10! It’s actually been climbing, breaking into the top ten yesterday. What’s really cool is that it’s doing so well even with all the newer, big-budget movies out right now – it’s even beating a film that made over a billion dollars at the box office! Besides that, Mark Wahlberg’s *Play Dirty* is still holding strong at number one, and *No Time to Die* is right behind it at number two.

The world of *Yellowstone* is growing, with several new stories planned. Following the conclusion of the original series last December, characters Beth (Kelly Reilly), Rip (Cole Hauser), and Kayce (Luke Grimes) will each star in their own spin-off shows, continuing the storylines fans have come to love. Interestingly, the co-creator of *Yellowstone* will be less involved in these series, including Kayce’s *Y: Marshals*, similar to how *Tulsa King* was made.

The upcoming movie, based on Stephen King’s novel *The Running Man*, features Glen Powell as Ben Richards in a desperate fight for survival. The trailer showcases intense action, including Powell’s character jumping from a bridge, battling pilots mid-air, and performing a daring, nearly nude rappel. Powell recently told EW that he was initially enthusiastic about filming the scene, explaining…

After surviving a confrontation with Dr. Loomis in *Halloween II*, Michael Myers returned in a bigger, more ambitious sequel. Donald Pleasence gave a particularly strong performance as Loomis, though Jamie Lee Curtis spent much of the film unconscious. The movie is divisive among fans – some love it, while others criticize it heavily. Regardless of opinions, it’s a significant entry in the *Halloween* series. Despite director John Carpenter’s dislike of the film, it established the direction – and many of the future issues – of the franchise, including its later sequels and reboots. It also cemented Michael Myers’s status as the definitive slasher villain, a figure who remains unmatched.

With the initial pleasantries over, *Spy x Family* Season 3, Episode 2 (Episode 39 overall) had the potential to kick off the season’s main conflict. Instead, the episode flashes back to reveal a deeply sad and difficult period in the life of a key character. However, viewers have to sit through a rather predictable and repetitive portion of the story before reaching this emotional and revealing backstory.

Okay, let me tell you about *Bone Lake*. This is a really tight, four-person horror film that absolutely lives up to the hype. If you’re a serious horror fan looking for something different this Halloween, this is it. Honestly, most super-gory horror just isn’t *fun* like this is – *Bone Lake* is playful and constantly messes with what you think is going to happen. It’s devious, a little wicked, and genuinely delightful, and it totally delivers on its promise of being a seductive and psychologically thrilling ride.

However, that doesn’t appear to be what happened. In an interview with Next Best Picture, Shakman explained that Kevin Feige, the president of Marvel Studios, didn’t ask for any elements to be added to the movie to connect it to future Marvel Cinematic Universe projects.

While researching Nancy Meyers’ films for Vulture, I had the chance to interview several stars, including Cameron Diaz, Steve Martin, and Kieran Culkin, asking them to recall their experiences. But my conversation with Diane Keaton was truly special – wonderfully eccentric, charming, and funny. She even jokingly wondered if I’d get in trouble for a question, and at one point, playfully scolded me with a sort of poetic rant about how people behaved during the pandemic. Because it was so delightful, we decided to share the full, lightly edited interview.
