‘Disclosure Day’ was revealed at its U.S. Premiere by the man himself, Steven Spielberg, alongside Emily Blunt, Josh O’Connor, Colman Domingo, David Koepp, and more.
Regency Village Theatre in Los Angeles went full old Hollywood glamour for the premiere of AppleTV+’s Masters of the Air! Lightbulbs flashed as big band and jazz played along the step and repeat. The period drama follows the efforts of the 100th Bomb Group of the United States Army Air Forces during World War II. The cast is absolutely killer with superstars like Austin Butler, Callum Turner, and Barry Keoghan leading the pack.

Saltburn sightings aside, fans were floored to spot executive producers Gary Goetzman, Tom Hanks, and Steven Spielberg pull up. The crowd erupted when they witnessed the Elvis reunion as E (Butler) locked eyes with his old friend Colonel Tom Parker (Hanks) along the red carpet.
Insider the historic theatre, popcorn scent filled the air as you weaved through celebrities like Bo Derek (10) and John Corbett (Sex & The City/And Just Like That…) and veterans and their families that inspired AppleTV+’s Masters of the Air.

Seated, the lights began to dim. Suddenly you heard Woody from Toy Story on the mic… or wait… no. Technically, that was EP, Tom Hanks. Hanks and Spielberg briefly discussed how Masters of the Air came to fruition after continued inspiration via Band of Brothers. Spielberg also credited his father for his latest project.
Hanks introduced the audience to several of the audience members and their family members who inspired the stories of the men portrayed on screen… the audience erupted with applause and stood on their feet to thank the men and their families for their service and sacrifice.
While standing in line for the bathroom, The Knockturnal‘s Kinsey Schofield asked actor John Corbett what he thought of the series. The My Big Fat Greek Wedding stud said the war drama was, “Great!”

The series is action-packed, emotional, and riveting… not to mention the all-star cast. It is a must-see. (And I would highly recommend a projector. I will feel completely cheated watching the rest of the series on a television vs. a large movie theatre screen! WOW!)
Masters of the Air officially premieres on January 26, 2024, on AppleTV+. Subscription required.

The Steven Spielberg multi-verse continues to expand.
Perhaps.
It’s the end of an era.
A ‘Jurassic Park’ film should not be this boring.
‘Jurassic World: Fallen Kingdom,’ directed by J.A. Bayona, is the newest film in the iconic Jurassic Park franchise. This film follows Owen Grady (Chris Pratt) and Clare Dearing (Bryce Dallas Howard) once again as they try to rescue the remaining dinosaurs from Isla Nublar before a volcano erupts. Joining the franchise alongside Pratt and Howard is actress Daniella Pineda, who plays Dr. Zia Rodriguez, a paleo-veterinarian whose abilities have never been tested on live dinosaurs.
You’ll be hard-pressed to find a world you want to step into more than “Ready Player One” and for one night in LA I did.
Well, here is my first review of 2017, and unfortunately, we have to start in January—the dumping grounds for films that studios know are awful, will probably not make money, and will most likely be savaged by critics like me.
The inner children in whole generations rejoice over another look at “The BFG” taking many back to their childhoods as excitement builds for the new movie venture.
