We have been hearing about the Friends reunion for over a year now. First, it was delayed due to greed, and then the pandemic.
Good things come to those who wait because Matthew Perry posted a photo of himself in a makeup chair and wrote, “Seconds before eating a makeup brush. Not to mention reuniting with Friends.”
There you have it; we are one step closer to seeing the unscripted reunion on HBO Max. Now, we just wait for an airdate.
HBO Max wants to give men their magic back and turn them into Magic Mike. Therefore, they are doing a competition show looking for the next Channing Tatum to join their live show in Las Vegas.
According to the press release, “They will bare their souls and more as they evolve their bodies, learn to perform spectacular routines, and develop a new level of self-confidence. As they strip off their clothes, they will rid themselves of emotional baggage and regain their mojo but only one will be the Real Magic Mike.”
Casting is underway now for The Real Magic Mike, and it is expected to air later this year. If you want to strip your off clothes and negative energy, then apply now.
Personally, I wish Showtime would bring back Gigalos, but this a close second. I openly admit I enjoy watching men take their clothes off. Is that wrong?
LeBron James is leaving the court to play a basketball player in Space Jam: A New Legacy on July 16th.
I wasn’t sure what to expect from the movie and his acting, but the trailer won me over. Not him, per se, but the Looney Tunes characters being looney. Who doesn’t love them doing that?
Are you going to watch the movie when it becomes available on the big screen and on HBO Max?
Some movies are appropriately named. For example, Scream was given the perfect title. As you can see in this supercut made by HBO Max of all of the screams in the 1996 film.
There is a reason why the actresses in Horror films are called Scream Queens. It is because they scream a lot. Then again, who wouldn’t? I mean, if there is a killer after you, what are you going to do when they catch up to you? You are going to scream.

Let’s be honest; we are still at least six months away before we can even think about going into a movie theater again. What are the studios going to do?
Well, Warner Bros announced today that they will be releasing their 2021 movies on both HBO Max and in theaters on the same day.
“After considering all available options and the projected state of moviegoing throughout 2021, we came to the conclusion that this was the best way for WarnerMedia’s motion picture business to navigate the next 12 months,” said Jason Kilar, CEO, WarnerMedia. “More importantly, we are planning to bring consumers 17 remarkable movies throughout the year, giving them the choice and the power to decide how they want to enjoy these films. Our content is extremely valuable, unless it’s sitting on a shelf not being seen by anyone. We believe this approach serves our fans, supports exhibitors and filmmakers, and enhances the HBO Max experience, creating value for all.”
Their 2021 theatrical lineup includes The Little Things, Judas and the Black Messiah, Tom & Jerry, Godzilla vs. Kong, Mortal Kombat, Those Who Wish Me Dead, The Conjuring: The Devil Made Me Do It, In The Heights, Space Jam: A New Legacy, The Suicide Squad, Reminiscence, Malignant, Dune, The Many Saints of Newark, King Richard, Cry Macho and Matrix 4.
Wonder Woman: 1984 will kick things off on December 25th.
This makes a lot of sense. While the small screen is not as good as the big one. However, it is better than none at all. I have a feeling Disney, Viacom, and Universal will follow suit on their streaming platforms Disney+, CBS All Access, and Peacock, respectively.
