AMP Featured, TV, Crouching Tiger Hidden Dragon, march 2019, Netflix By Kaila Hale-Stern on Wed,1:10 Hello and welcome back to our monthly look at everything that will be newly streaming into your eyeballs. Fun! Here's what Netflix has coming your way in March. Big on the Internet, contributors By Vrai Kaiser on Wed,1:08 Stories about the Midwest are extremely hit-or-miss. Many conservative narratives rely on painting a hallowed image of small-town middle America. The other extreme flattens midwestern states into a formless blob, at best unworthy of comment and devoid of culture, and at worst a roundup of bigoted stereotypes. Unwell has set its sights on finding the middle ground between those extremes. Big on the Internet, Vic Mignogna By Princess Weekes on Wed,12:54 Anime voice actor Vic Mignogna has been accused of sexually harassing behavior for more than a decade.

Movies, Meg Wolitzer, The Wife By Kate Gardner on Wed,11:55 Believe the hype around the film. Movies, a quiet place, Bird Box By Fiona L.F. Kelly on Wed,11:25 Two of the biggest horror movies in 2018, Bird Box and A Quiet Place, both draw fear from the viewer by eliminating a sense. In Bird Box, the characters cannot look at the monsters, lest they succumb to dark impulses. Similarly, in A Quiet Place, the movie's monsters are attracted to sound, and the characters must live in a mostly silent world to survive.

News, CNN, fake news By Vivian Kane on Tue,4:58 CNN just got a brand new politics editor, who will be in charge of coordinating political coverage around the 2020 election, and based on the name they've announced, the only reasonable explanation I can think of is that CNN has lost some sort of extreme bet. Movies, Blumhouse Productions, Scream By Kate Gardner on Tue,4:39 As a diehard Scream fan, I know I should be, well, screaming at the idea of a reboot, but I actually don't think a remake or a reimagining would be so bad.
