These Picks > Going Out
We're on a bit of a heater of late. This week I am taking you on the Nile to solve a mystery. Then, we're taking an Uber to meet up with Nic Cage to steal a few cars. Lastly, the train that leads to Busan is full of twists and turns of the fall of Gwen Shamblin, but before that we make a stop with our friends from Jackass and find out that laughter is forever.
Enjoy the ride through these picks and make sure that you have your seatbelts on because it's gonna get bumpy.
Please remember to pass it on to your friends, I love doing this and will continue to do this for the love of the game and hope I can make some people very happy on their next night in.
WAIT! I can't forget the most important part! Everything that is streaming starting April 1st. Ready. Set. Go!

WEEKLY MUST WATCH
Death on the Nile (2022) Hulu
Mystery
There's nothing like a good mystery movie that keeps you guessing and keeps your attention. This movie is that movie. Don't get me wrong, it's not up to the par of Knives Out, but it's very good and will keep your attention, and pays off well. The movie follows a detective as he tries to figure out who is behind multiple murders on a boat, thus the name Death on The Nile. The acting isn't great, but you can look past that and see the story, and it's the story that keeps you hooked. If you're looking for a Friday night flick that will pass the time and keep your attention, there's no mystery that this film delivers that and more.
TUNE IN. DON'T TUNE OUT.
(For the TV Lovers out there)
Super Pumped: The Battle for Uber (2022) Showtime Anytime
Drama
This last year you might have noticed that all the streaming services have gone all-in on making series about the headlines. We saw it with Netflix with Inventing Anna, Hulu with Dopesick, and The Drop Out. Now, Showtime has thrown its hat in the ring with Super Pumped. The show follows the rise and fall of former Uber CEO Travis Kalanick's reign at Uber from inception to the fall from grace. If you don't know this story by reading or some podcast about disgraced tech CEOs, then this show only adds to the lore of this insane story. If you're like me, where a story ripped from the headlines is your cup of tea, this is the show for you. Bring back your frat years and tap a keg for this series.
THROWBACK PICK OF THE WEEK
Gone in 60 Seconds (2000) Amazon Prime
Action
Not going to lie; I have been on an insane Nick Cage kick of late. This is one of the classics. This movie screams the early 2000s with the action, storyline, and way it's shot. It's a shot of adrenaline nostalgia right in the veins. It has all the makings of that early super cut-tight action with an insane cast of Nick Cage, Angelina Jolie, Delroy Lindo, and Robert Duvall. The movie follows a bunch of car thieves who have to steal a specific list of cars for a certain amount of time, or as you guessed it, it's their life. This will put a big smile on your face, and it's just as rewatchable after one viewing as it is after 100 (My number). Make it fast a loose with this drink choice for this movie.
THREE AND OUT
A healthy mix of TV and movies for that next night in.
Train to Busan (2016)
Amazon Prime
Horror/Action
This is by far one of the most thrilling horror movies to date. I am not just saying that, but this movie is universally loved and touted as one of the best zombie movies; I would even say best overall horror movie. The film follows a father and daughter as they ride a train to be reunited with family. A zombie apocalypse breaks out, so you know this movie takes it to another level and keeps you guessing who survives till the very end. You will need something stiff to keep the edge off cause you will be shaken up.
The Way Down (2021)
HBO Max
Documentary
The cover of this documentary paints a picture of a figure who is deeply flawed and used religion to make people "follow" her ways to the promised land. Gwen Shamblin made her money through a program that promised weight loss through god. What transpires through this documentary is a dark twisty road of power, greed, and influence to the worst degree.
I Love You, Now Die (2019)
HBO Max
True Crime/ Documentary
Another true crime doc makes the list this week because the series based on this doc came out by the time you're reading this. This documentary follows the highly publicized case of Michelle Carter and the text messages that caused one of her friends to commit suicide. What makes this disturbing is the way the documentary plays out the events in a chilling nature that will stick with you for a long time. If you're a true crime fan, this is an all-timer and will prepare you for the dramatized series airing now.
WHAT I AM WATCHING NOW
Jackass Forever (2022) Paramount+
Comedy
I don't know if there's anyone more excited for this movie to hit streaming. I don't know what else to write here, but the title speaks for itself. It's a new Jackass movie out in the year 2022, and with any Jackass movie comes the laughs, and in this one, there are aplenty. This movie is the same structure as the last, with almost all the same cast from the originals back and some new players to keep some fresh blood in the franchise. The hits keep coming, and the difficult stunts are just as hard to watch as previous iterations. The problem is you can't just stop watching. On its surface, it's a bunch of dudes kicking each other in the balls and doing absolutely anything to mess with each other. Underneath it's a story of friendship and camaraderie and, in the purest sense of the word, brotherhood.
