Coliving amidst the challenges of COVID-19

There is no other way to say it: Real Estate as an industry did not have it easy in 2020. Big plans had to be put on hold, and business growth shrunk. The sub-segment of coliving within the Real Estate industry was especially susceptible to the damage that the world-wide lockdown did to businesses. At the beginning of this month, my team and I at TheHouseMonk launched the Global Coliving Report 2020. It was the culmination of several months of research within the coliving industry around the wor...

‘The Investigation’ Trailer: Scandinavian Crime Drama From ‘Mindhunter’ Director Tobias Lindholm Comes to HBO

HBO is building out its international titles, with the acquisition of a new limited series from Danish filmmaker Tobias Lindholm. His name may not ring many bells, but his resume stands on his own: in addition to directing episodes of Netflix’s Mindhunter, he’s been nominated for an Oscar for writing and directing the 2015 drama A War, and collaborated multiple times with Danish filmmaker Thomas Vinterberg, most recently on the Mads Mikkelsen-starring Another Round. So it’s likely he’ll deliver...

‘Landscape With Invisible Hand’: Tiffany Haddish to Star in Sci-Fi Film with ‘Truman Show’ Similarities

Tiffany Haddish has been incredibly busy since her big breakout role in Girls Trip from 2017. Since becoming an instant star in that film, she’s been in more than a dozen movies and appeared in dozens of episodes of television, but now the bombastic comedian is poised to appear in a genre in which she hasn’t done much work yet: science fiction. Haddish is in talks to star in Landscape with Invisible Hand, a movie adaptation of a sci-fi novel about an alien invasion on Earth with a strange twist...

Comedy Central, MTV, Nickelodeon and More ViacomCBS Channels Finally Coming to Hulu’s Live TV

Finding the right live television streaming service can be tricky. After all, they don’t all have some of the channels that you otherwise might be accustomed to having through a standard cable subscription. For example, Hulu with Live TV has been missing popular channels like Comedy Central, MTV, BET, VH1, Nickelodeon, TV Land, and more because they didn’t have a deal with ViacomCBS. But that changes today, as Hulu is adding those channels and more to their live TV line-up. Today, Hulu announ...

‘Wonder Woman 1984’ Box Office Drops 67% in Its Second Weekend

Wonder Woman 1984 might have been flying high in its opening weekend, with the biggest post-pandemic opening yet, but it experienced a steep drop at domestic theaters in its second weekend. But whether that’s down to the unusual day-and-date release on HBO Max or poor word-of-mouth buzz is still uncertain. Deadline reports that the Wonder Woman 1984 box office experienced a massive 67% drop during its second weekend in domestic theaters, more than the average second-weekend drop of roughly 5...

‘Borat 2’ Star Maria Bakalova Felt It Was Her “Duty” to Go Through With Giuliani Scene, Had a Sweet Reunion With Babysitter Jeanise Jones

Maria Bakalova was the undeniable breakout star of Borat Subsequent Moviefilm, an unknown Bulgarian actress straight out of acting school who was able to hold her own against prankster extraordinaire Sacha Baron Cohen and dupe U.S. political figures like Rudy Giuliani. So it’s no wonder that the most buzzed about scenes from the Borat sequel usually feature Bakalova, including the aforementioned Giuliani interview and a sequence involving Jeanise Jones, a kindly 62-year-old woman who was recrui...

‘Surviving Death’ Trailer: Netflix Series Explores What Happens After We Die

Not content with exploring what happens when a woman named Emily visits Paris or what happens when a queen has a gambit, Netflix is setting its sights on a topic that is far more existential: what happens after we die? In contrast to my goofy introductory paragraph, Surviving Death, a new six-episode series coming to the streamer this week, is a deadly serious show that looks to engage with one of mankind’s biggest questions through research and first-hand accounts with people who have died and...

Paul Greengrass Compares His Unmade ‘Watchmen’ Movie to ‘Joker’

Once upon a time, before Zack Snyder’s movie and the excellent HBO series, we almost got Paul Greengrass‘ Watchmen. Greengrass was actually one of several filmmakers to circle the project, including Terry Gilliam, Darren Aronofsky, and even Tim Burton. Those are some very different filmmakers, and it’s easy to picture the wild ways Gilliam, Aronofksy, or Burton would interpret the material. But what about Greengrass? How would his version of Watchmen play out? According to the director himself,...
