"RRR" the movie; it's a Telugu language spectacle directed by the one and only S.S. Rajamouli, standing for "Rise Roar Revolt." Released in 2022, this action-packed epic has taken both critics and audiences by storm, boasting a jaw-dropping 95% rating on Rotten Tomatoes1. But let's dive into this rollercoaster of cinematic delight, shall we?
Hold onto your virtual seats, folks, because Keanu Reeves is back in black leather and ready to dodge bullets like he's swatting away pesky paparazzi. "The Matrix Resurrections" has arrived (alright, a few years ago now), and it's more confusingly fun than explaining memes to your grandma.
So.
The modern day blockbuster is dying. Again.
The public's freaking out; influencers are worried about their bread-and-butter and film executives have little to worry about, except the mortgage on their vacation home in the Riviera, and how much their yacht will fetch at open auction.

Fantastic show! You can tell the cast have chemistry; visually colorful, and the filming is manic and zany; in just the right way.. As a fan of the original PlayStation game series - I will warn you that it differs from the source material quite a bit, but still maintains the spirit and aesthetic of the Twisted Metal franchise.
Created by Rick Berman (former show runner on Next Generation) and Michael Piller in 1993 – it ran for 7 seasons until 1999. The show ran concurrently with Star Trek The Next Generation (for its first two seasons) until Next Gen finished its run in 1994.
Deep Space Nine differs quite a bit from its predecessors. Its setting replaces the traditional space ship with an advanced space station. This was a huge departure from previous entries in the franchise, which were a direct homage to naval films of the past.
The Lobster is a dark-romatic comedy that touches on the nature of relationships in a delightfully macabre way. Directed by Yargos Lanthimos in 2015, from a screenplay he co-wrote with Efthimis Filippou it stars Oliva Colman, Colin Farrell, Rachel Wiesz, and John C. Riley. If you're a fan of dry British wit mixed with a nihilistic outlook on the the dating scene, this film's going to tickle your fancy.
