It won’t be long before the Star Wars prequel series Andor forces its way onto Disney+, and critics who received an early look at the show are lining up to sing its praises. Folks are describing the first four episodes of Andor as something “different” from other Star Wars-related projects on the mouse-eared streaming platform. One critic even said Andor rivals The Mandalorian regarding quality, dept of story, and atmosphere. Stick that in your space-aged hooka and huff it, Jabba!
While I could wax rhapsodic about how excited I am to watch the three-episode premiere of Andor when it arrives on Disney+ on September 21, 2022, I’ll let the fine folk who’ve seen the show pump you up.
#Andor features the best production values of any @DisneyPlus @starwars series to date. It definitely had some intriguing moments…starting in episode 4. It has so much potential but the first...

The first reactions to the new “Predator” movie are in, and they are downright glowing. “Prey” received an early screening at San Diego Comic-Con Thursday night, after which social media reviews started to bubble up. Across the board, the first batch of reactions are heaping praise on the prequel from director Dan Trachtenberg (“10 Cloverfield Lane”).
Set 300 years in the past, in the world of the Comanche Nation, “Prey” follows a character named Naru (Amber Midthunder), a warrior “raised in the shadow of some of the most legendary hunters who roam the Great Plains.” When the alien Predator comes calling, Naru sets out to protect her people.
The film features a cast comprised almost entirely of Native and First Nation’s talent, including Midthunder, newcomer Dakota Beavers, Stormee Kipp (“Sooyii”), Michelle Thrush (“The Journey Home”) and Julian Black Antelope (“Tribal”).

National CineMedia, the nations’ biggest in-theater advertising firm, had a tough 2020 but is unspooling a reimagined Noovie Preshow this weekend timed to the record eyeballs awaiting Spider-Man: No Way Home.
A consortium of the nation’s biggest theater chains, National CineMedia’s preshow, the cornerstone of its business, runs on 2,100 screens, about 75% of the domestic box office, playing for 20-30 minutes before previews. It had several iterations, the latest from 2017. Ncmi wanted a more engaging and culturally relevant show that’s less random and “more holistic,” said Amy Tunick, who joined the company as chief marketing officer in August.
The moviegoing audience changed since Covid, she told Deadline, so “the idea was to modernize the show, the content, to align with what our young, diverse audiences — 18 to 34 year-olds – want.”
That includes creating new advertiser-sponsored “shows within the show.” Series like Noovie Presents Perri’s Picks, where reviewer/entertainment writer/producer...
