Women can have it all! Right?! A review of HBOMax’s “Expecting Amy”
I didn’t love Expecting Amy, the mini-series following Amy Schumer’s pregnancy, but it brought up a lot of great unspoken side-effects of working and growing a human in America.

A futuristic western with echoes of the economic collapse and aggressive capitalism which surrounds us today. 'Black Diamond' refuses to pay back a loan taken out by her dead father to support her people and her mine, so they murder her people and dynamite the mine. The dark forces of the Banker's Citadel are unleashed on her community, destroying everything in their wake. She is left for dead but fights back and plots a bloody brutal revenge on the forces of capital.

For the entirety of Raiders of the Lost Ark, Marion remains in full control of both her body and her personality, a rarity for female characters at the time of the film’s release. She’s granted depth with personal demons from her past and emotional vulnerability when the situation deems it appropriate for her to grow alongside Indy. She avidly rejects the notion of being anything other than a sassy, humane rebel, and Indy’s equal in every way. This she does while still maintaining her femininity.
'Thirteen Lives' gives a dramatic adaptation of a humanitarian triumph that captured the global imagination.
The Suicide Squad's Polka-Dot Man aka Abner Krill, played by David Dastmalchian, helped me come to terms with my own issues of anxiety.
Two Distant Strangers (2020) centers around Carter James (Joey Bada$$) as he tries to get back home to his pitbull, Jeter, after spending a night at the apartment of his date Perri (Zaria Simone). What gets in the way of Carter reuniting with his dog is that every time he tries to leave Perri’s apartment, he is killed by police and wakes up back in her bed in a never-ending cycle. It addresses the issue of police brutality which rightly has been in the public eye more and more with the unjust deaths caused at the hands of law enforcement.
'My Big Fat Greek Wedding' is a franchise built on inclusive storytelling.
