Hi, {{first_name | friend}}!
We’re approaching that time of year when going to the movies starts sounding more appealing than doing pretty much anything outside. Luckily, the theaters are stacked this weekend, so keep reading to discover the best new films that just premiered!
For those of you who’d rather stay at home, almost nothing is dropping on streaming this weekend, so now’s the perfect time to start rewatching The Office for the 100th time. Speaking of, why is it that we’ll endlessly rewatch sitcoms like Friends and Seinfeld, while seemingly every new sitcom disappears after a season or two? In today’s Worth the Watch I’m digging into why Hollywood has gotten so bad at making sitcoms that actually stick.
The Biggest Premieres of the Weekend
Magic and mayhem take over the big screen this weekend, with the return of a beloved cult classic and a historical epic with an A-list star.
Practical Magic 2
In theaters now
Twenty-eight years after the original, the Owens sisters return to face the curse that could break their family for good. Sandra Bullock and Nicole Kidman are back as our favorite witches, joined by Joey King and Maisie Williams. Whether you're excited for spooky season or '90s nostalgia (or both), this one's worth the ticket.
The Uprising
In theaters now
In 14th-century England, a humble peasant rallies an army of commoners against the tyranny of King Richard II. Andrew Garfield leads this historical action epic based on the true rebellion that inspired the legend of Robin Hood. From director Paul Greengrass (Captain Phillips, The Bourne Ultimatum), it’s sure to be an intense ride.
