Whether or not you think we need a prequel to the beloved 2001 movie "Legally Blonde," which stars Reese Witherspoon as the determined and intrepid accidental Harvard Law student Elle Woods, we've got one. "Elle," spearheaded by showrunners Laura Kittrell and Caroline Dries, is set six years before we meet Delta Nu and sorority president Elle Woods as she attends the sunny and fictional California University Los Angeles (CULA, as Elle puts it). In this prequel series on Amazon Prime Video, Elle, played by the genuinely spectacular newcomer (and Witherspoon mini-me) Lexi Minetree, lives in Seattle and attends high school before she becomes the brilliant lawyer we learned to love in "Legally Blonde."

We have good news and bad news regarding "It's Not Like That," Ian Deitchman and Kristin Robinson's faith-based series that premiered on Wonder Project in January 2026 before getting picked up by Amazon Prime Video that May. The good news is that "It's Not Like That" is a charming, touching series about pastor Malcolm (Scott Foley), who recently lost his wife, navigating single fatherhood and raising his three children. Along the way, he leans on the recently divorced Lori (Erinn Hayes), and the two try to figure out if there's something romantic between them. Fans flocked to this series, and it earned (as of this writing) a perfect score of 100% on Rotten Tomatoes. Unfortunately, it was canceled in July 2026 (per Deadline ).

The late, great Roger Ebert was the most influential film critic of all time. One of his most famous quotes remains vital to how we talk about movies.

Disney's latest live-action adaptation is here in the form of "Moana," an animated movie that came out just ten years ago. Unsurprisingly, it never reaches the heights of the 2016 original... and that continues a trend. Put bluntly, the Disney live action remakes are just bad. So why is that the case?

Christopher Nolan's adaptation of "The Odyssey" is an outstanding epic in every sense of the word.
