Anderson's novel Dune Sisterhood, has also established a number of its own plots, many of which are resolved in the first season finale.

Black Panther 3 Officially Confirmed By Marvel Studios
Only a few days after Denzel Washington revealed his role in the Black Panther threequel, Marvel Studios formally announces the MCU's Black Panther 3. T'Challa's last farewell presented a significant obstacle for Black Panther: Wakanda Forever, but the film's extremely positive reviews and robust box office performance demonstrated that Ryan Coogler and his crew went above and beyond. The next major concern for the Black Panther franchise is what course Black Panther 3 can take now that the MCU has paid homage to Chadwick Boseman.

Conviction
The movie 'Conviction' is quite a movie. Sam Rockwell, Hilary Swank, and Minnie Driver create compelling characters to watch. They form believable onscreen relationships. Due to the content of the film I will withhold a black and white analysis of good and bad. The acting is fantastic, the story compelling, the real life implications heart wrenching. The story is successes hiding in a tragedy. The injustice is maddening and at times as a viewer you want to give up, but seeing how Betty doesn't, you somehow can't.

1923 Season 2 Release Date Confirmed
1923 season 2's release date has been announced. The Paramount+ series, which is a sequel to 1883 and stars Harrison Ford and Helen Mirren, is a precursor to Yellowstone by franchise creator Taylor Sheridan. The Dutton family is the focus of the novel, which takes place in the year of the title, which was marked by the Great Depression, Prohibition, and the Western Expansion. Although it swiftly set Paramount+ records and led to a renewal, the impact of the writers' and performers' strikes has caused a delay in the release of 1923 season 2.

Begging the Question
A moment ago, I was thoroughly immersed in the ghastly, fascinating fictional world of AMC's Anne Rice's Interview With the Vampire, S1: E4. I was happy to see this series appear on Crave, a Canadian streaming platform that grants subscribers access to all sorts of HBO Max, AMC and STARZ content. As the brief clip below will confirm, this series is excellent, largely by virtue of the fact that it is devoutly faithful to Rice's bewitching prose in a surprising number of cases; in fact, the dialogue often rehearses the manuscript verbatim:

Brokedown Palace is a Warning Film
Americans talk a lot of bunk. We accept that in our pride of the Constitutional right to "Freedom of Speech". Many Americans have barked the emotionally packed threat of "I'll just leave the country," when the problems in our nation seem too overwhelming or when an American is talking the bunk of a spoiled brat. Americans know that Americans are not "perfect" and neither is our "justice system" but Patriots do the best they can to uphold what we have and keep going. I say all of this before I get into the details of this movie review because this movie (Brokedown Palace) is the reason I am a liar if I say "I want to leave the country." I do not want to leave my country, and mostly it's because as messed up as my country is regarding "liberty and justice for all" this film depicts how it may be much, much worse in other countries.

The Order received positive reviews upon its premiere, receiving an 89% rating on Rotten Tomatoes.
