I’ve been having such a blast watching movies and shows the last couple of days. There were a lot of romances and content created for women involved and it made me so happy. Seriously, good stuff! But let’s take a look at what’s coming up today!
Movies
The Adam Project
This looks SO good! And seeing Jenna and Matty from 13 going on 30 again, all the feels. (Others might say Hulk, Elektra and Deadpool did a movie together, but whatever)
Lightyear
I have no stakes in this, not even with Chris Evans in it.
Cheaper by the Dozen
Okay, I can roll with this remake.
Alice
This is the year of Keke Palmer and I’m loving it!
Nope
I’m not even a horror person, but Jordan Peele just knows what he’s doing AND THE CAST!!! I’m guessing it has to do with aliens? But nope, I don’t know what Nope is about.
Jurassic World 3: Dominion
THE NOSTALGIA! It looks really good and I cannot wait. I mean all three OGs in one frame. My heart!
Batman/Flash/Black Adam/Aquaman 2 – Teaser
I don’t have a lot of faith in the DCEU if I’m being honest, but maybe this new phase will be good? I just want Shazam 2.
Sonic the Hedgehog 2
I … still haven’t seen the first one.
Firestarter
So, Zac Efron is playing a whole dad now. I feel old.
Family Squares
Another Zoom movie.
Pressure Point
I really don’t remember if I shared this already or not.
Flux Gourmet
I can’t tell if this is supposed to be funny or serious.
Men
I have no idea what’s going on. I just know it’s A24.
The Weekend Away
This reminds me of a book I read, but not the one it’s based on. Either way, love Leighton Meester.
Father Stu
So … Mark Wahlberg and Mel Gibson and religion. Hmmm …
Meskina
I feel like they should have released that a month earlier than what they’re planning.
TV Shows
Conversations with Friends
Guess I have until May to finally read the book. Reading Normal People before watching it was really helpful to me.
Shining Vale
It’s creepy but also kinda fun?
The Girl from Plainville
Elle Fanning really transformed for this one.
The Dropout
Another impeccable transformation. The voice, the posture, the styling – I immediately knew that Amanda was supposed to be Elizabeth Holmes without knowing they were making a show about her.
Life & Beth
I’m intrigued by Michael Cera in this, but not really that much into Schumer.
Cat Burglar
Okay, I love how they’re bringing back the more classic cartoon style!
Hold Tight
They’re really adapting a lot of Harlan Coben stuff at Netflix now.
The Tourist
I love seeing Danielle Macdonald
Good Trouble (Season 4)
This is entirely too short of a teaser, but I’m looking forward to it! More David and Dennis mess for me.
The Marvelous Mrs. Maisel (Season 4)
Why does it always take so long between seasons? I love this show. Hopefully, there’ll be some Lenny Bruce.
Thoughts:
1. The Adam Project: Not sure if I’ll watch it, but the idea behind it is getting my writer’s brain stirring.
2. LIghtyear: I’m still surprised that Buzz Lightyear had hair under that blue cap or whatever it is. Also, I’m not going to see it.
3. Cheaper by the Dozen: How many remakes does this make?
4. Nope: I look forward to it.
5. Jurassic World 3: Should be fun.
6. DCEU teaser: I take it on a case-by-case basis. I’ll see the Batman, but I’ll wait on whether I’ll pay money to see the rest.
7. Firestarter: The horror community and I are aflame over this movie right now. And yest, the pun is intentional.
8. Men: What you said.

I always imagined Buzz to have some hair haha I genuinely do not know how many Cheaper by the Dozen movies there are, but it’s plenty. It still works though.
What about Alice? Did that not seem interesting to you at all?

I knew I was forgetting something! Yeah, that looks cool! And it’s good to see Johnny Lee Miller post-Elementary. However, I don’t think it’s based on a real story. At least, none that I can find.

Online reports say Alice is inspired by true events of Black Americans who remained enslaved after the Emancipation Proclamation. I don’t think it meant that this particular case happened exactly how they’ll show it.

They never do, do they?

Oh, I can’t say I’ve seen the book for Weekend Away before I learned about the movie.
