Steven Spielberg made a sequel to Close Encounters.
Sort of.
Disclosure Day is packed with conspiracies, govt coverups, psychic powers, alien math & plot holes big enough to fly UFOs through.

A YouTube cartoon from @glitch_prod just outgrossed "The Mandalorian and Grogu" at the box office.
Maybe Hollywood should be paying attention.

Nicolas Cage as Spider-Man. In a 1930s noir. Talking like James Cagney.
Honestly, that's enough to get us through the door.
"Spider Noir" isn't always successful, but when Cage cooks, he really cooks.

Gregg Allman wasn't just the voice of Southern rock. He was one of its architects.
A new documentary digs into the music, the loss of Duane Allman, addiction battles, the Cher years, & the complicated man behind the legend.

From 4chan meme to $100 million opening weekend:
"Backrooms" proves that internet-native horror can make the leap to the big screen — and sometimes do it brilliantly.

For most of the year Greenland is just a massive Europe-sized ice sheet. But it gets above freezing along enough of the coastline to play a national soccer tournament. @NPFF_Film bookandfilmglobe.com/film/no…
