Review: 'The Gray House' is inspired by Civil War history but isn't itself inspiring Prime Video's historical drama tells the story of real-life Union spy Elizabeth Van Lew, but it fills the rest of the space with imagined details and too many plots and subplots.

I finished reading The Wilderness by Angela Flournoy last night. Definitely goes in some unexpected directions.

a movie poster for scream 7 shows a person standing in front of a fire ALT: a movie poster for scream 7 shows a person standing in front of a fire

With Scream 7, the franchise has now explained itself to death so that much of what happens is not a surprise. That includes the killer time around, who barely makes any sense. It has some fun kills and quips that are indicative of its style, but overall it's just so uninspired.

I really only talking about the latter half of this particular franchise. They really have just squeezed all the life out of it and need to let it go.

I’m not sure we can donate to small independent media our way out of the reality that the media and arts landscapes are controlled by an authoritarian and his friends. I’m as supportive as anyone else but this seems like a critical problem that goes beyond that.

If I were society I would simply decide that art and truth had value beyond how much money can be made from them

Once again I say, this franchise needs to end.
