There’s a lull between blockbusters, prestige films are still weeks away, and the movies being released seem random at best.
“ I’m proof that all of the publicity and all the Instagram fame doesn’t pay.”
With the series set to premiere on Thursday, here’s a look back at the long relationship between MTV and Las Vegas.
Matt Groening’s new animated comedy “Disenchantment” (Friday, Netflix) looks a lot like his legendary series “The Simpsons.”
“Crazy Rich Asians” doesn’t just embrace romantic-comedy cliches. It grabs those tropes by the waist and lifts them into the air, “Dirty Dancing”-style, before giving them a big, sloppy kiss on a crowded train platform in the rain.
After three seasons and a handful of episodes of the upcoming fourth, it’s time to accept the fact that Dwayne Johnson’s “Ballers” (10 p.m. Sunday, HBO) will never be more than a dopey, mildly distracting bit of escapism.
Spike Lee is basically the filmmaking equivalent of the Hulk.
Barring some sort of last-minute public relations nightmare, Netflix will release the first season of “Insatiable” on Friday.
As an avid skydiver, Matt Jaskol is used to jumping out of perfectly good airplanes.
Few things will break you out of a rut and get your mind right faster than having a friend you haven’t seen in 30 years show up in your yard, unannounced, without wearing any pants.

Think of it as “Justice League,” only with flatulence, poop jokes and rapping.
