Madeline Potts is a certified member of Generation Z and in "Potts Shots" she'll be watching older movies she hasn't seen before. This week? Madeline explores a movie based on fanfiction and how it makes her feel as a lover of fanfiction.  Yes… that Harry Styles fanfiction. I vaguely remember reading it when it was […]

Madeline Potts is a certified member of Generation Z and in "Potts Shots" she'll be watching older movies she hasn't seen before. This week? It's a Wonderful Life (1946).   It's a Wonderful Life! I've heard about it being a beloved classic Christmas film but it was never in rotation in my home. We always […]

In the age of cutting the chord, when you don't want to add a Hallmark or Lifetime subscription to your ever-growing list you have to turn to Netflix for all your glorious holiday-themed movie trash. We are talking the romantic comedies usually involve a normal, well to do girl being "forced" to visit her hometown […]

It all started with a Facetime call with a close friend of mine and, as bonafide Disney fans do, we got into a debate about what the best Disney holiday party is. The answer is the Christmas party, obviously, but we'll talk about that at another time (all I'm saying is FREE Christmas cookies.) This […]

If you haven't been introduced to the adorable Baby Yoda in Disney+'s Star Wars live-action spinoff series The Mandalorian than you have most likely been living under a rock for the last few weeks – but that's okay! If you need to catch up "Baby" (50 years old) Yoda is a younger version of our […]

Madeline Potts is a certified member of Generation Z and in "Potts Shots" she'll be watching older movies she hasn't seen before. This week? Bee Movie (2007). Yes, Bee Movie. Known most famously for its romance between a bee and a human, the Bee Movie has a reputation. From memes on twitter to shirts printed […]

Madeline Potts is a certified member of Generation Z and in "Potts Shots" she'll be watching older movies she hasn't seen before. This week? Superbad (2007). I don't know about you but I periodically will go down an internet rabbit hole and get way too deep, my current obsession: these videos of actors recounting their […]

You just ate your weight in mashed potatoes, turkey, cranberries, pumpkin pie, and gravy when you take yourself to your couch or bed to lay down and nap. Between sleeping the calories away it's time to start celebrating the Holidays with a Christmas movie on your brand new Disney Plus account. Here are my Top […]

As a kid, I capitol L loved Disney Channel. I lived and breathed its content, it was the only channel I knew the "code" for on my parent's television. After school, you could find me watching Hannah Montana or practicing my Camp Rock choreography with my karaoke machine. Above all, the most exciting times were […]

Madeline Potts is a certified member of Generation Z and in "Potts Shots" she'll be watching older movies she hasn't seen before. This week? The Terminator (1984) I'm going to preface this Potts Shots by saying that The Terminator is exactly 0% a movie I would typically gravitate to. But after paying $3.99 on Amazon […]

My name is Madeline and I don't do scary movies, at all. I'm the "nearly cries when a horror movie trailer comes on" kind of gal and I'M PROUD OF IT. That's why I am creating a definitive ranking of all of the nonscary Halloween movies (I have watched) from scariest to least scary. 17. […]

Madeline Potts is a certified member of Generation Z and in "Potts Shots" she'll be watching older movies she hasn't seen before. This week? The Addams Family (1991) We all know the iconic snapping, Wednesday's braids, and the crazy, kooky, family that lives down the street. But… I, being a Halloweentown stan for life had […]

DreamWorks, the animations iconic fishing from the moon logo populated a massive portion of my childhood trips to the movies, from Shrek to Kung Fu Panda: I watched them all. I noticed, however, that as I got older I started to watch less and less of the animation studio's films but we are about to […]

I have a confession: I attended the Riverdale panel at San Diego Comic-Con (SDCC) without watching the show's third season – and as you would expect I was thoroughly confused. I know, I know… this is, like, a cardinal sin to all geekdom. I was taking up a seat in the world's most (in)famous room […]

Let's be honest: every year, Comic-Con International: San Diego (SDCC) continues to grow – and what was once the pantheon for all things comics has become the place to be if you're a film or television series looking to make traction with an eager geek fanbase looking to rest their eyeballs on something worthy. Then […]

  If I had to describe the Women Of Marvel panel at San Diego Comic-Con in one word it would be joy, pure unadulterated joy. As a kid, I didn't have women heroes on the big screen. I had SuperMAN, SpiderMAN, and Captain AmeriMAN. There wasn't Wonder Woman or Captain Marvel, there was Pepper Potts […]

At San Diego Comic-Con 2019 we caught up with Orlando Bloom as he discussed what drew him to his role as Rycroft Philostrate in Amazon's new fantasy show Carnival Row. So who is Rycroft? According to Bloom, he is "a man of secrets. That plays in the shadows a bit but he has this really […]

Things I expected going into the Brooklyn Nine-Nine Off-Site: Title Of My Sextape jokes.  Things I didn't expect from the Brooklyn Nine-Nine Off-Site: meeting half the cast of a niche musical I was obsessed with as a kid.  So it's safe to say that NBC's Brooklyn Nine-Nine off-site at Comic-Con International: San Diego (SDCC) is […]

[Editor's Note: In this series, Madeline Potts (a bonafide millennial) watches all the "old" movies she never watched as a kid. From Star Wars (we know, we were shocked someone hasn't seen it, too) to campy sci-fi movies from the '70s-  she's going to take it all on.] In this installment, to celebrate the day that […]
