I broke my leg a few weeks ago.
Do you ever read a book, find yourself stunned, then spend hours trying to picture exactly what the adaptation will look like? The sights, the sounds — and more importantly, names involved?
Back in 2007, now Marvel creative officer and household name Kevin Feige had an idea. Why wouldn’t he take every property the company owned, put them in the same sandbox and let loose the world’s greatest collection of superheroes on the same screen, at the same time?
Late last year, I wrote about how Netflix’s “Trial of the Chicago Seven” was poised for this moment — a testament to standing up for your rights as an American citizen and bringing viewers back to a period that echoed many of the demands for civil rights we still seek today.
Picture this. It’s 1993, and you’re sitting down in the theatre to watch Denzel — the guy who just played (and got snubbed) for the Oscar as Malcom X — and Morgan Freeman hunt down a serial killer somewhere among the crime-ridden streets. The guy who made “Jaws” and “ET” is directing, and as opening credits roll — you firmly believe this will be the best movie of the year.
Fresh off the success of ESPN’s 10-episode Michael Jordan documentary “The Last Dance” this past spring, I was pumped when I heard that HBO would be releasing a similar in-depth look at another of sports’ most fascinating figures in 2021 — a once young phenom named Eldrick “Tiger” Woods who revolutionized golf and changed the way we viewed celebrity athletes through his meteoric rise and ultimately disappointing fall. There may not have been any involvement on his part unlike Jordan with “Dance”, but a sizzling trailer still had me hooked.
Well folks — we made it! The fever dream that was 2020 came and went, and while we found plenty of new shows to fill our — excessive — amounts of free time, 2021 is shaping up to be an even more exciting year across the television landscape. Not only are long-delayed new seasons of Emmy winners including “Atlanta,” “Barry” and “Succession” anticipated to arrive soon, but a whole crop of new shows from streamers and networks alike are expected to debut sometime in the coming months. While few release dates are formally known thanks to this pesky virus, here are some new titles to keep an eye on as we embark upon yet another strange semester.
They say you can’t teach an old dog new tricks. Clearly no one let David Fincher know that.
Dominic LeRose and Johnny Bildings are seniors at UW-Madison who are fanatics about all things entertainment. Their goal is to recommend their favorite movies, TV shows, books, music, documentaries and specials to make the dismal times of the current pandemic a little less sufferable.
We’re on lucky number seven here at “Are You Entertained,” and sadly it couldn’t seem to come at an unluckier time. The world looks damn bleak right now, and as I listen to my family member cough up a COVID-filled lung downstairs and approach my fifth straight week of self-imposed social isolation measures, I know myself — and I’m sure many other Badgers out there — could use a few gentle reminders on what the word “gratitude” looks like during this time of the year.
A few weeks ago, I told you Nicole Kidman would keep me around purely out of the fact that I needed a tight-laced mystery in my life as we approach another stretch of stay-at-home orders.

As the hopes for our country’s future hang in the balance over the next seven days, it took a Netflix-led trip back in time on Saturday night — filled with protests, flower power and judicial combat alike — to remind me about why we should all be thankful to step up to the polls and cast our votes for the men and women who will help decide where our nation goes from here.

With delays continuing to mount across Hollywood on big and small screens alike, it seemed poetic that the fourth season of Noah Hawley’s FX anthology series “Fargo” would leave the month of October to dedicate ourselves to whatever Midwestern crime tale he cooked up.

Following my experience during “Tenet” a few days ago, I figured I wouldn’t run into another movie this year that confused me more than whatever beautiful disaster Nolan designed.
When I first sat down to watch “Lovecraft Country," I was ecstatic. The producers attached (fellows named J.J. Abrams & Jordan Peele), HBO-all stars involved (“The Wire” and “Boardwalk Empire” star Michael K. Williams) and premise of the story gave me a glimmer of hope that HBO would continue their impressive streak of original shows airing in 2020. We’re in a content vacuum after all, and if I get 10 weeks of new programming this year — I’ll take it, no questions.
