Episode 21 "An Apple+ a Day..."

On Flix 66 episode 21, Azusa Pacific University professors Ryan Izay and Dr. Thomas Parham are joined by student critic Aaron Linnemann to discuss: • Box Office Roundup: Jordan Peele's Us set records, but is it a worthy successor to Get Out?  • Film & TV News, including series renewals and cancellations, where the first round of layoffs hit Fox after the Disney acquisition, and the Star Trek actor who will join LeBron James in Space Jam 2. • Feature Stories:   ◊ Apple finally unveiled its streaming service Apple TV+, which launches this fall with new shows from producers like Charlie Day & Rob McElhenney, Ronald D. Moore, M. Night Shyamalan, and Steven Spielberg with A-list talent like Jennifer Aniston & Reese Witherspoon, Jason Momoa, Aaron Paul & Octavia Spencer, and Hailee Steinfeld. Will Apple+ be a "Netflix Killer" or just another competitor?   ◊ The Writers Guild of America is engaged in a bitter feud with packaging agencies Creative Artists Agency, William Morris Endeavor, and United Talent Agency. Negotiations have been tense, and WGA is prepared for its 15,000 members to fire their agents if a new deal isn't reached by April 7th.
