Streaming Releases: Black is King and Beyoncé is Queen
July 31st, 2020
The last week of the month is often the slowest for new releases on streaming services. Not only are people excited for the flood of catalog titles coming out at the beginning of next month, they’re also too busy catching up on shows that are about to leave to pay attention to new releases. This leaves fewer than usual releases this week. That said, while there are only three movies / TV shows on the main list, all three are worth checking out. Of these three, Black is King will almost certainly be the biggest release of the week.

Featured Blu-ray / DVD Review: Epic
September 1st, 2013
Epic was the first big digitally animated film of the summer, but it wasn't able to become a monster hit. In fact, it will need a bit of help on the home market to break even. Will it get that help? Or is it just a middling family film destined to be forgotten?

2013 Preview: May
May 1st, 2013
As April ends and summer begins, we see the 2013 box office on a losing streak. There is some good news, as May should be much, much, much better than April was. Much better. During the five weekends in May, there are nine films opening wide. Of those film, there are seven that at least have a shot at $100 million. And of those seven films, four at least have a shot at $200 million, two have a shot at $300 million, and we might even have a $400 million hit this month. Iron Man 3 should turn out to be the biggest hit of the month, while there are some who think Star Trek: Into Darkness could be a close competitor for that honor. There's also some bad news. The Avengers opened last May and earned more than $600 million. No film opening this month will come close to that figure. There's a chance the top two films opening this month won't match that combined. On the other hand, last year there was a huge drop-off from the biggest hit of the month to the second biggest hit of the month. There were so many high-profile failures last year, that 2013 might actually start winning some weekends in the year-over-year comparison.
