The price hike is definitely not related to KotFM, but this definitely wasn't best the week to announce the hikes.

Yeh the only thing I’ve ever watched on Apple was the two Mariah Carey Christmas specials 😂

I've watched the Peanuts specials and Tetris...I tried Hello Tomorrow, but I viscerally hated the main protagonist, and after 3 episodes, I just couldn't see him become even more vile...I mean, you are supposed to hate him, but c'mon...

Pachinko is excellent and Silo is really good too if you’re looking for more things to check out before you drop it. 

[ListenHunnyUrOver]

AppleTV doesn’t have nearly enough material to justify a price hike tbh. 

[CoolioD1]

i loved Pachinko. Slow Horses was also good. Severance meh. Ted Lasso i only watched the first season, one of those modern comedies that's "nice" instead of "funny". those are the apple shows i watched.

[ZeroHour]

Jumping off Ted Lasso after the first season is the right call. It’s all diminishing returns from there.

For All Mankind is where it's at for Apple, nothing else is close.

Ted Lasso S2 and S3 felt like all the interesting stuff happened in-between episodes. So many episodes where it felt like you missed an entire plotline due to things being resolved off-screen.

[Eric S'ennui]

Ted Lasso is hilarious to me. Not the show itself, because I only saw the pilot. It’s my parents’ favorite show at the moment and when I mentioned that I heard the newer seasons are trash, they were baffled why somebody would say that.

 

This was the same case with Game of Thrones’ last season. All I saw online was people complaining about how awful it was, but my parents couldn’t stop raving about it and thought all the complaints were nonsense. Was a real whiplash moment every Monday for me lmao

[eeetooki]

I loved the first season of Ted Lasso. It was probably my favourite TV series of that year. But I haven't gotten around to watching S2 and S3 yet because of all the negative reviews lol

Faith-based movie show some resiliency in post-Covid era. Their BO are now almost like a horror genre in specialty market. 

 

 

Quote

The Blind is now the most successful release in the history of Fathom Events, as the faith-based feature has grossed $15.7 million at the North American box office as of Monday.

 

The film is Fathom’s first to see a longer theatrical run than its traditional event cinema releases. Originally slated for an eight-day run as part of Fathom’s new specialty distribution model, it was extended twice, Fathom said, and held a steady position in the top 10 for the duration of its more than three weeks in cinemas.

Physical, The Morning Show, Severance, Platonic and Silo are all good to great shows. Never got into Ted Lasso. Foundation was ok. See was awful.

 

I can currently justify $10 for Apple more than $16-22 for Netflix.

Ok hold

 

 

 

[Krissykins]

Great Wednesday holds, Killers of the Flower Moon was the only film to fall more than 30%.
 

Exorcist -19%, Saw -18% 

[titanic2187]

 

-22% from Wednesday. The combined power of Freddy and swift.

to be fair, Flower Moon did have the biggest and way stronger jump among top 10 on Tuesday.

Severance, Tetris and Hijack are really good.
