Walt Disney Animation Studios has never shied away from putting its own spin on popular genres, whether it’s the superhero-inspired Big Hero 6 or the gaming fantasy of Wreck-It Ralph . And, by and large, those forays have all managed to cast the Disney magic that makes them critical and commercial hits. With Raya and the Last Dragon , Disney tries its luck with a new genre: The martial arts hero’s journey. And much like the aforementioned films, Raya finds inspiration in all the right places, and imbues it with the sort of emotional weight and bright, fantastic aesthetic we’ve come to expect with Disney’s big-screen adventures. In a world … Directed by Don Hall ( Big Hero 6 ) and Carlos López Estrada ( Blindspotting ), Raya and the Last Dragon follows a young warrior, Raya (voiced by Star Wars actress Kelly Marie Tran), as she sets out to reverse the damage done to the fractured world of Kumandra by the sinister creatures known as Druun.

Heading to a remote barren island to spend a week alone may sound like the start of a thriller, but that's exactly what Lisa Enroth signed up to do. When the Göteborg Film Festival 2021 opened up applications to watch its 60 films in the 'Isolated Cinema' on a remote island off a Swedish archipelago, the committee was inundated with 12,000 hopefuls within two weeks despite the fact that the experience meant you'd be alone on the barren island with seven days' worth of supplies, and no phone allowed. None of this deterred Lisa, a Swedish emergency nurse who's been on the frontline during Covid-19. She caught the committee's attention, and a few weeks later was making the boat trip across to island Pater Noster. So, was it strange to spend a week alone on an island like this? She told the Mirror exclusively: "Not strange. More peaceful. I tend to spend a lot of my spare time alone, especially in these strange times. The strange bit was not being able to speak to my friends at … [Read more...] about Meet the woman who went to a remote island alone to watch films for a week

Paramount Plus launched Thursday, replacing CBS All Access with a new name and a bigger library of stuff to stream. But missing from its widened selection is the single TV show most associated with the Paramount name right now: Yellowstone . The epic cowboy drama has been a breakaway hit for the Paramount Network , one of ViacomCBS' cable channels. And Paramount Plus will have a new Yellowstone prequel to stream later this year, with another spinoff to come. But if you want to binge Yellowstone itself, you need to mosey over to Paramount Plus' rival Peacock , which has the exclusive rights to stream the first three seasons. When Yellowstone returns after its cliff-hanger finale last year -- an episode that drew in the biggest audience of any scripted TV show on cable last year -- you can expect season 4 will be on Peacock too. And Yellowstone isn't the only high-profile ViacomCBS program missing from Paramount Plus. If you're looking for Comedy Central's South … [Read more...] about Why Paramount’s biggest show, Yellowstone, isn’t on Paramount Plus

MEMPHIS, Tenn. - With seconds remaining, no timeouts and down a point, the Milwaukee Bucks knew they had to push the pace. Jrue Holiday took care of the rest. Holiday’s 11-foot baseline jumper with two seconds remaining gave the Bucks a 112-111 victory over the Memphis Grizzlies on Thursday night in a game where the teams exchanged leads five times in the final minute. “I was the first one down the court, so … it was pretty much me and (Grizzlies forward) Dillon Brooks,” Holiday said. “I just took the opportunity. I thought I made a nice play and knocked down the shot.” Memphis rookie Desmond Bane had a final chance for the Grizzlies, but his 3-pointer hit the front of the rim, giving the Bucks their sixth victory in seven games. Giannis Antetokounmpo led the Bucks with 26 points, 11 rebounds and eight assists, and Khris Middleton added 22 points and 10 rebounds. Holiday and Pat Connaughton finished with 15 points each, both connecting on key baskets in the final minute. Ja … [Read more...] about Holiday hits baseline jumper to lift Bucks past Grizzlies

So, same time again next year? Ordinarily, WandaVision season 2 would be a guarantee. It is, after all, one of Disney Plus ’ most successful series and has proven Marvel Studios can do for superheroes on streaming what it’s done for over a decade in theaters.

WandaVision season 2: Is it happening? In a word, no. Director Matt Shakman has been forthright on the possibilities of WandaVision season 2 streaming on Disney Plus.
