Superstar Spectacle was WWE's first television special produced specifically for India as part of its broadcasting agreement with Sony Pictures Networks India (SPNI); it featured wrestlers from the Raw, SmackDown, and NXT brand divisions. It premiered on January 26, 2021—India's Republic Day—on SPNI channels, and was broadcast internationally as a streaming special on the WWE Network. As with all other WWE programming at the time due to the COVID-19 pandemic, the special was taped behind closed doors in the United States with a virtual audience.
One of my favorite aspects of My Movie Starring Paul Dano is its blend of illustrations and dream sequences within its mockumentary structure. As the script is written, we are shown how the movie Bear Naked Amazonians From Mars looks in Herman’s head, with all its retro b movie campy charm.
Billy Eichner provides a hearty dose of good old fashioned romance with a lot of laughs
Although Tuner is technically a heist movie, music and sound are woven into almost every aspect of Niki’s story. That’s what made Tuner such a pleasant surprise. I expected a film about music and discovered a heist movie, only to find that music was still at the heart of it.
I understood post-memory as passing down stories and images of one’s experiences that are not your own. For decades, rape has been depicted in cinema through a third-person perspective, leaving the viewer to observe rape; not to experience it.
This is ambitious horror filmmaking, and in a lot of ways, I fully admire its ambitions. For me, the film’s sloppiness defines its overall quality.
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.
