Binge the 4th Together, Apart

,

Netflix Party ain’t the only game in town for watching shows together remotely. Practically every streamer is doing it now – or is working on it – and the Verge breaks it all down for you right here. Nice!

New in July: A Movie-Centric Guide

,

CT Post brings a nice one that marches through movies first, which makes for a nice quick read. I mean, how else would Space Balls park right in there with Schindler’s List? Take a peek and find a weekend fave!

Pin of the Week: Science Snacks for the Kids!

Wondering what to do with the kids home and camps cancelled? The SF Exploratorium has you covers with LOADS of cool projects to keep their days filled and their minds active. Click for a peek and let the snacking begin!

Don’t Miss: Great Sci-Fi Going Bye-Bye

,

Ah, the kind folks at Inverse SAY this is the one movie to watch before it leaves Netflix at the end of June. But then they give you THREE! Termors, Minority Report and Inception, all with good reasons why to watch ’em again while you can:)

More Hulu Goodness to Start Your Week!

,

If you’re loving Hulu more and more, Mashable is here to stoke your fire. There are certainly one or two new shows to add to your list of bingeworthy titles – perhaps the hilariously clueless vampires in What We do in the Shadows? – so give it a quick read!

Mini-Series, Maxi-Fun #2

,

Surely, this list by Bright Side overlaps all over the place with our previous Mini-Series binge post, right? Nope! So just keep diving in to get more ideas for short runs you can gobble down this weekend or over the next week. Variety, that’s some yummy stuff.

Mini-Series, Maxi-Fun #1

,

If you’re still in the stay-inside mode, why not accomplish something by crushing through an entire mini-series in a weekend blast? Screenrant has a nice crop of goodness for you here, with the easy-to-miss Maniac particularly catching my eye. Have a great weekend, all!

A Cool Cinematic Breakdown

,

Spike Lee is a master filmmaker who often uses conspicuous cinematic techniques to powerful effect. (Remember the sudden direct-to-camera slur sequence in Do the Right Thing?) This breakdown from Slate is a nice look at how he uses sequences filmed in four different aspect ratios to enhance the power of the storytelling in Da 5 Bloods. A great read!

A Baseball Battle Royale!

,

If you’re a baseball fan, you surely remember the thrill of the great home run race of 1998. Even if it’s a somewhat juice-tainted memory now, let ESPN take you back to those big-bashing days for some true baseball excitement in the midst of today’s lost season.

Find the Secret Gem: Amazon Prime

,

This little list from Mashable does a nice job of mixing old and new faves streaming now on Amazon. But there’s always an UNexpected show in there that is really DONE in a cool and different way. See if you can find it!

Weekend Watch #3

,

Seriously, this roundup is so long, you could probably just binge the trailers. But it’s full of a mix of classics and unsung heroes – the well-reviewed 2016 remake of Pete’s Dragon, anyone? – that it totally deserves your attention. Attend, thee!

Weekend Watch #2

,

When the nuts over at PCMag start their family-tilting list with the complete Carol Burnett show and end with Lin-Manuel Miranda and Freestyle Love Supreme, well… guess I’m a nut, too. Serve yourself up a surprise this weekend!
