Swapped combines comedy, adventure and emotional growth while delivering one of the biggest plot twists in animation history.

This Netflix series is about Ashley Garcia, who gets a once in a lifetime opportunity to work at NASA.

Scene-stealer Melina Kotselou brings infectious queer joy and non-binary representation to the third installment of Nia Vardalos' 'My Big Fat Greek Wedding' franchise.

A 2022 remake of the previous films of the same name, but with a more diverse cast, increasing representation and diversity.

If you are a discerning movie watcher and/or an African-American with a modicum of Black consciousness, this film isn’t for you. It would be better to watch the documentary ‘They Fight’ to see the impactful, emotional story of Walter Manigan and the young men of DC’s Ward 8. 

Steven Soderbergh’s Contagion is a fan-favorite, as are some of the more science fiction angled movies like 28 Days Later or World War Z. I recently watched the 1995 Wolfgang Peterson-directed movie, Outbreak for the first time, which is currently available on Netflix.
