Previously on What's Hot?.....
Spiderman: Far From Home
It appears that Marvel-Sony deal really did work wonders for the Spider-Man franchise. While 2017’s Spider-Man: Homecoming was a box office success, outgrossing every previous Spider-Man movie except for Spider-Man 3, last summer’s sequel Spider-Man: Far from Home is a genuine box office smash to the tune of $1.109 billion worldwide.
In fact, that figure is enough to make Far from Home the highest grossing movie in Sony Pictures history, surpassing the $1.1 billion gross of previous record holder Skyfall. That’s an impressive feat, and one can’t help but point to Avengers: Endgame as a contributing factor to Far from Home’s success. Sure, Tom Holland is adorable and the John Hughes spin on the Peter Parker character makes these movies a delight, but there was added interest in Far from Home given that it was the first Marvel Cinematic Universe movie released after Marvel Studios’ Avengers: Endgame, which brought all the previous films to an emotional conclusion. Truthfully, Far From Home wasn't all that and I was kinda disappointed too sigh.

The Lion King grossed $543.6 million in the United States and Canada, and $1.113 billion in other territories, for a worldwide total of $1.656 billion. The film had a global debut of $446 million, the ninth largest of all-time and the biggest opening for an animated film. Honestly, watching this version of the lion king (one of my fave Disney movie by the way) was pure torture, I was cringing the entire time!
Damn, I didn't enjoy any of my picks last summer! Anyway, rumor has it, movies will be back on screens in August but I'm not holding my breath on that one. Now let's see what's hot within the community!
