Since its release on December 5th, Spartacus: House of Ashur quickly became popular on Starz, topping the streaming charts. Now, according to FlixPatrol, the series seems to be losing momentum, even before Starz has officially announced whether there will be a second season.
Great ghost movies often tap into our fear of what we can’t explain. While some are intensely scary, the most effective ones all skillfully blend the ordinary with the supernatural, making it hard to tell what’s real and what isn’t.

“It’s iconic, a great film on a lot of levels,” Arquette told The Sunday Times about 1994’s Pulp Fiction, where she played the role of Jody, who’s on hand for the famous scene where Vincent Vega (John Travolta) plunges a syringe full of adrenaline into Mia Wallace’s (Uma Thurman) chest. “But personally I am over the use of the N-word — I hate it. I cannot stand that he [Tarantino] has been given a hall pass. It’s not art, it’s just racist and creepy.”
Lots of streaming services have popular fantasy shows, but many are either finished or based on existing stories. However, Percy Jackson feels original and is consistently improving. Truly great fantasy series like Percy Jackson are rare, and with the new direction of season 3, it seems to be developing in a similar way to Harry Potter.
Diesel La Torraca, who plays Austin Miller on Ginny & Georgia, announced on Instagram that filming for Season 4 has finished. He shared a video of himself hugging Antonia Gentry (Ginny), his co-star.

As a huge fan of Heat, I’m incredibly excited about Heat 2! It’s based on the novel Michael Mann co-wrote recently, and from what I understand, it’s going to be a really ambitious project. It’s not just a sequel, but also a prequel – we’ll get to see what happened before the original movie, filling in the backstories of all those iconic characters, and then follow them into the aftermath. Now that Michael Mann has confirmed filming is starting, it’s easily one of the movies I’m most looking forward to seeing.
Mystery Science Theater 3000, or MST3K, took some of the worst movies ever made and turned them into comedy gold with its quick, witty commentary. The show’s deliberately low-budget, homemade feel also gave it a charming, unique quality that stood out from other television programs of the time. And unlike many other popular shows from that era, MST3K enjoyed a surprisingly long run.
I was surprised to see it, but Aladdin – the live-action version from a few years back – is really taking off on Disney+ right now! According to the folks at FlixPatrol, it’s currently the seventh most-watched movie on the platform here in the US. What’s even more interesting is that it’s the only live-action remake in Disney+’s top ten, which just proves how much people still love that story and how well that remake connected with audiences. It really seems like it’s earned its place as one of Disney’s biggest remake successes.
