Willow is an absolute must-watch and a perfect Date Night binge
If I am keeping it completely 100 with you? I really thought I would just let ‘Willow’ play with the sound off and while watching something else as I ‘reviewed’ it. It started off a little cheesy. There was a little bit too much of today’s social awareness being presented. It’s a Disney+ production, which can either make it way too family corny or be over the top. Long story short? It’s amazing and something I cannot stop watching.
The newest 'Babylon' trailer is all types of awesome
Is there any doubt putting Brad Pitt, Margo Robbie, Diego Calva and Tobey Maguire into the same movie will be anything less than epic? Of course not. So geek out and prepare for a certainly highly likely Date Night approved must-see with Babylon coming through on another solid-looking trailer.
The new 'FEAR' movie is all types of wintertime horror fun
Who says horror movies only reign supreme in October? Turns out the upcoming FEAR movie looks like it’s going to be non-stop crazy fun on the big screen. The star-studded cast alone is reason enough to see what the flick is about but it’s really all about the psychological horror genre getting a dosage of excitement fueling this must-see.
The new 'Avatar: The Way of Water' looks like a Date Night I'm falling back on
Just to be clear, I am always going to keep things 100. So even though my love and need to see superhero flicks have drastically dropped - no worries Deadpool, I’m still pulling through Ryan Reynolds - I will always push forward and co-sign flicks worthy of linking with bae for some high-powered on-screen action. This leads me to Avatar: The Way of Water.
The new 'Disenchanted' movie is a completely must-see Date Night flick
Just for the record? I probably haven’t watched Enchanted since it came out in the mid-2000’s but holy smokes if Disenchanted didn’t spark all types of those nostalgic moments.
Trevor Noah has your Date Night goals secured with 'A Strange Loop'
It’s no secret - ‘A Strange Loop’ is an absolute must-see if you have the opportunity to pull through for a memorable, wild and crazy - all in that order - Broadway production from the genius mind of Michael R. Jackson. And now adding in the ‘Daily Show’ host Trevor Noah hosting Black Theater Night on November 29? Christmas is coming early this year.
The new 'Darby & The Dead' trailer has finally arrived
Low-key and high-key? I can’t wait to let the world in on what Darby & The Dead is all about with a Date Night or Nahhh… rundown but an embargo is an embargo - so for the time being let’s geek out over the upcoming film’s new trailer.
The 'Magic Mike's Last Dance' trailer has me hearting Channing Tatum
Man crush? Not really but who doesn’t have that male figure you kind of imagine as you holding it down in their respective professional fields. Whether it was Mike Bibby for me in the NBA or J-Mac in those Bang Bros adult scenes - we all channel that certain someone and feel a connection. So it’s only right I geek out over the upcoming Magic Mike’s Last Dance flick with a trailer you have to watch twice.
We officially have a date for Shazam! Fury of the Gods
Start the countdown. The wait for Shazam! Fury of the Gods is officially ignited with a countdown. The story of Billy Batson who, upon reciting the magic word ‘Shazam!’ is transformed into his adult super hero alter ego is arriving in theaters this March.
50 Cent's new 'Hip Hop Homicides' series is an automatic must-see
Homicide cases for Date Night? Rest assured, you haven’t seen a series like with what 50 Cent has presented courtesy of his new ‘Hip Hop Homicides’ show especially with the premiere episode focusing on the tragic death of Pop Smoke.
F1 22 can make your Date Night the new Game Night
Just when you thought Date Night or Nahhh… was only about movies and TV shows - plus Broadway performances, I should add - I go ahead and make a real attempt for you to convince bae gaming goals in the form of endless F1 22 gaming is a must. Well, it is and you’re welcome.
Test your bae goals by going to see 'Terrifier 2' this weekend
I normally don't forcefully suggest things but my goodness - after seeing Terrifier 2 last night and lasting nearly three hours - with the bonus post-credits interview segment with creator Damien Leone, my goodness, was it a blast.
The original 'Terrifier' is free to stream right now
Long story short? I couldn't get five minutes into 2018’s Terrifier without having to put my delicious Darista Dips beet hummus and Egglife wrap immediately away in the fridge while streaming this on Apple TV. It’s must-see for the true horror movie fans and those eager to see its new sequel going crazy in theaters right now.
Of course you gotta see Mia Goth's 'Pearl' before October ends
Date Night approved? Of course. Long overdue but my goodness what director Ti West has created with the now-epic X franchise? As you already know, it’s vital to see the first movie before loading up Pearl, just so you have full clarity.
The new 'House Party' movie might really be a must-see
Low-key? The buzz about a new House Party movie seemed a little suspect at best but hardly 60 seconds into the red band trailer? I am convinced - Date Night goals might be fully activated once January 2023 arrives.
3 reasons Kaitlyn Dever's 'ROSALINE' is your Date Night go-to on Hulu
Oh - I should mention in the headline the movie completely justifies having Hulu as a top premium subscription must-have, too. The new Rosaline movie? It’s everything you want - classic romantic story by William Shakespeare, modern day twist and ample quirky moments you can appreciate from start to finish. Because time is money - quite literally, let’s jump right into the top three reasons this new Hulu Original is your go-to for Date Night.
'Hellraiser' is a great must-watch but just not with bae
Sorry folks - the truth is Hellraiser is a lot of fun but just not with bae. Initially looking at the previews and build-up to what this is all about, I had every intention of giving this the ultimate co-sign but there are a few variables - and they’re pretty massive - for why this is a must-see but with friends at best.
The 'Hocus Pocus 2' flick is actually really worth watching and bae will agree
Not trying to date myself here but watching the original Hocus Pocus as a kid? Classic. From the acting to the witty characters to just the overall charm of a slightly spooky Halloween movie targeting kids but what parents could enjoy too. We’re talking about Bette Midler after all, right?
I spent all weekend watching Aqua Teen Hunger Force: The Baffler Meal complete collection and need more
Can we keep it a buck? Aqua Teen Hunger Force truly birthed adult swim. Hands down. As much as I love shows like ‘Children’s Hospital’ and ‘Delocated’ plus the iconic ‘Robot Chicken’ there’s no doubting how much Aqua Teen Hunger Force paved the way and set a precedent for the type of unfiltered, raw and unique content you could come to expect on the service which airs somehow on Cartoon Network but has no connection to kids - at all. The new Aqua Teen Hunger Force: The Baffler Meal complete collection reminded me why it’s the most original piece of content I have ever experienced.
Sanaa Lathan’s 'On The Come Up' might be the reason to go Paramount+ mode
Let’s keep it 100 - streaming platforms are really keeping the Date Night or Nahhh… options brewing. While I’ll always push for an intimate movie outing with bae, there’s of course nothing wrong and in some cases a blessing to have a solid go-to for viewing in the steamy comfort of home. Hence, actress Sanaa Lathan’s new On The Come Up movie gives you the best of both worlds - hitting theaters nationwide and available for Paramount+ streaming right now-now.
