Comcast Eyes Warner Bros. Discovery as Rival Bidder to Paramount — And Harry Potter May Be the Key

A recent report in the *New York Post* (October 9th) indicates that Comcast has been secretly considering a potential acquisition of Warner Bros. Discovery for several months.

Netflix Streaming Forgotten Horror Remake (And It Fixed the Original’s Biggest Mistake)

As a big movie fan, I was excited to see that Netflix recently added the 2006 remake of *When a Stranger Calls*. It’s directed by Simon West and written by Jake Wade Wall, and it’s a pretty tense thriller! The story follows a teenager, Jill, who takes a babysitting job that quickly turns scary when she starts getting creepy phone calls…and then realizes the danger is already *inside* the house with her. Camilla Belle does a great job in the lead role, taking over from Carol Kane who played the babysitter in the original – which, by the way, you can find on Shudder this month if you want to compare the two!

20 Years Ago, This Sci-Fi Movie Saved a Cancelled Masterpiece (but Still Left Us Wanting More)

Two decades ago, fans of the popular sci-fi show *Firefly* got a surprising second chance. When Fox canceled the show in 2002, many storylines were left unfinished. But in 2005, the movie *Serenity* was released, bringing the series back to life on the big screen and finally answering some of those lingering questions. The film not only wrapped up loose ends but also brought in new fans thanks to its wider release. Still, many viewers continued to wonder what could have been if the show had continued.
