Im looking for an RSS feed I can subscribe to that posts about upcoming shows and movies on the different providers like Netflix, Amazon, etc.

It would be nice if the feed also provided an overview of each show so I didn't have to open up a separate imdb tab to look up the details of the ones I am interested in.

Does anyone know of any feeds that do this?

I've somehow avoided experiencing any of Shakespeare's work outside of Hamlet, Julius Caesar, and Romeo and Juliet. I prefer to see plays acted out rather then just reading them so I'm looking for the best film versions of his work to experience.

My personal favorite is Franco Zeffirelli's Hamlet, I watch it all the time and absolutely love it. I love how accurate it is to the play, as well as the costuming and set design feeling so real mixed with the gravitas and drama of the play.

Please share your favorites and tell me a little about why?

There is something fun and sinister about a well done lovecraftian style story. If you don't mind that sort of thing I HIGHLY recommend "The Void" during your halloween times. It is very lovecraftian and works on a lot of levels. To me "Event Horizon" also has that feel. As long as the stories play up the creep factor over the sheer gore of it all I think there are some cool ideas here.

ARTICLE>> https://screenrant.com/lovecraft-stories-movie-adaptations-need-modern/

H.P. Lovecraft was known for his fantastical novels, whose influence has bled into the cultural perception of horror, making them perfect for modern movie adaptations. Lovecraft is undoubtedly a flawed and prejudiced figure in literature, and any undertaking to adapt his stories should acknowledge the issues of racism, xenophobia, and homophobia in his work. Bringing Lovecraft into the modern era means doing his work justice, as well as exploring how they can be made more reflective of the present day.

It seems to me that George Miller agrees with the fan belief that the Mad Max films are a series of tales rather than a chronology or anything like that, because there are some huge discontinuities, and I am fairly sure that is intentional. You may dispute this, but you will have to come up with some convoluted explanations for at least some of these points:

Some of the big ones:

  • “Shiny” and “chrome” are never said once in Furiosa.
  • One of Immortan Joe’s sons is different in each film, although Rictus is in both. There is no mention of a third brother in either film.
  • There is a history woman in Fury Road and not a history man
  • In Fury Road, the false-nosed man is the head of Gastown and not very interested in helping Immortan Joe even though he does it out of fealty.
  • In Fury Road, the titular road is implied to be the road to The Green Place. In Furiosa, it’s the road from The Citadel to Gastown.
  • In Fury Road, Max had clearly never seen The Citadel before until he ran out of the cave and saw where he was. In Furiosa, he is within view of it in his Interceptor.
  • There’s no suggestion that Gastown and The Bullet Farm had their own horde of drivers in Fury Road.
  • Furiosa is told by her mother in Furiosa to use the stars to get back to The Green Place, but in Fury Road, she just goes east. And during the day.
  • In Furiosa, the Warboys worship at the pile of steering wheels. In Fury Road, they take the wheels for their cars one by one and choosing which wheel is a ritual thing.

The biggest one, though, is that Furiosa ends where Fury Road begins, at least that’s what the film seems to show, but Gastown and The Bullet Farm are rebuilt and restaffed enough that runs are possible again, and Immortan Joe’s army is much bigger and more powerful.

I’m not complaining at all, I think it’s fascinating. The idea of a film universe as folklore rather than “fact.”

Incidentally, neither film ever explains why Furiosa has an American accent.

Thanks. it's fine if nobody knows the answer to this or has not seen the movie, it's not a very good movie.
