POPULAR ON NETFLIX/HULU//DISNEY+

THE BAD GUYS
Imagine an animated film that combines the heists of Ocean’s Eleven with the criminals of The Suicide Squad. As it turns out, that film exists in the form of The Bad Guys, an animated film in which Mr. Wolf (Sam Rockwell), the pickpocket getaway driver, leads his team of criminals known as “The Bad Guys.” When the authorities catch The Bad Guys, Mr. Wolf brokers a deal for his team to avoid prison. The criminals will become model citizens in exchange for no prison sentence. In the beginning, the scheme works, and Mr. Wolf slowly finds himself wanting to leave a life of crime. However, a new villain emerges during the team’s absence, and The Bad Guys are called upon to save the day and thwart the plans of their new enemy.


THE FOOD THAT BUILD AMERICA
Have you ever wondered about the origin stories of your favorite cola or how titans like Henry Heinz, Milton Hershey, John and Will Kellogg, or the McDonald brothers built their empires from small food chains or businesses to massive market leaders? The History Channel reality show focuses on a different brand in each episode, delving deep into the backstories of how big food and drink brands came to become such icons in America, which sometimes involved making ruthless business decisions.


WILLOW 2022
Although Lucasfilm is predominantly known for its Star Wars mega-franchise, the recent Willow Disney+ series proved to be a vibrant high-fantasy adventure. A show fit for all ages, this series serves as a sequel to the somewhat under-the-radar 1988 film of the same name, taking place 17 years after its antagonist — Queen Bavmorda — was defeated. In this new tale, an unlikely group of six characters comes together to defeat a new threat to the realm.
