AMP Featured, Movies, Godzilla: King of the Monsters, Millie Bobby Brown, Vera Farmiga By Princess Weekes on Tue,11:32 If anything is to blame for Godzilla: King of Monsters underperforming at the Box Office, it's the crappy human plotlines that never match up to the excitement of the monster mash.

TV, He-Man, Netflix, She-Ra and the Princesses of Power By Vivian Kane on Mon,5:57 Given the success of Netflix's She-Ra series, it seemed natural that He-Man would eventually find his way to the streaming platform, and now he has. TV, HBO Max, Practical Magic, Rules of Magic By Chelsea Steiner on Mon,5:51 If you were a certain type of girl in the 90s who loved all things witchcraft, you likely had a well-worn VHS copy of 1998's Practical Magic in your bedroom, along with a poster for The Craft and more than one choker necklace.
