MoviePass has returned from the dead. But it won’t be repeating the same mistake that killed it in the first place.
Remember when you used to be able to go to unlimited movies for $10 a month? Yeah, turns out that wasn’t such a solid business decision — it just wasn’t sustainable and eventually led to bankruptcy.
The company is back and wants to launch a tiered subscription service that will get you monthly credits. These credits can be redeemed for movie tickets. Matinées and second-run movies will run less credits, and premium movies, the kind that are leading a resurgence at the box office (Top Gun: Maverick, Minions, & Thor: Love and Thunder) — they obviously will cost you more.
The only way to get in on the ground floor, though, is to jump on a waiting list. Come Labor Day, the people at the top of the list will get the complete details and first dibs.
Are you going to take a chance?
A company called Eve Air Mobility is going to start trails runs of their taxi service to and from O’Hare via helicopter in September. The whole thing probably won’t be available until 2026, but they’re just getting data right now to see how it goes. If you it all does work out correctly, the commute to O’Hare could be 15 min! At a price point of $150, it’s a bit steep, but if you’re trying to make a flight and you have that kind of money- it’s not!
This ex-flight attendant shares her tips for flying after working in the industry for many years. These are important things- she wouldn’t do! Like talk to the person next to you… they could be creepy! Don’t share too much with a total stranger!
There is a giant slide in Belle Island in Detroit. They just reopened it since the pandemic and city workers swear they put wax on it to slow people down, but it doesn’t appear to be the case. People are flying down it at a fast pace, kissing any safety they might have just had at the top good bye. Watch these people take their lives in their hands on the way down! Count me out!

A lot of people look like a celebrity- sort of right? Brian looks like a Vince Vaughn, Justin is a Josh Hartnett, and Ali is kind of an Emma Stone. A French photographer figured out that most people probably have a doppelganger, or look-a-like. First, he had a friend tell him that he looked like a celebrity. Then he slowly realized after traveling a ton, that a lot of people look alike, even from completely different backgrounds. He’s made a special project to show his observation called, “I’m Not A Look Alike.” Since François Brunelle started this project, scientists started studying some of his subjects only to find out that they do have a lot of DNA in common. Look at these ‘look alikes’ and judge for yourself!
The Arctic Monkeys recently returned to the road after a three year hiatus and fans in Zurich were treated to a brand new song, “I Ain’t Quite Where I Think I Am”.
The boys from England are set to release their latest album, “The Car”, on October 21, which will feature the aforementioned track, as well as nine other bangers.
Does this pass the vibe check? The conversation lives on Facebook!
Do they belong to the streets?! This girl keeps all of her ex’s D picks… does she belong to the streets?!
Ahoy Brian-Ali-Justin I found out that my girlfriend has kept all the dick pics she’s received over the years in her phone. She says she never looks at them but it bothers the hell out of me that she still has them. I don’t have naked pictures of my ex’s or nudes I was sent before dating her. Does she belong to the streets for keeping the pictures?
In this week’s edition of “Am I The Jerk” a mom is trying to show her son that grades are more important than sports… her son and husband don’t agree. Is she the jerk?!
Am I a jerk for not letting my son play football because of his bad grades? My husband is as mad about this as my son and they both think I’m a jerk but I’m trying to teach him that academics are more important than sports. What are your thoughts on this parenting decision? Does this make me a jerk?
Getting a tattoo is usually regrettable- but there are some that people regret the least, like a pic of your dog. Sly Stallone will agree with you on this one, he just got one of his dog to cover up his wife’s face! Did not go over well… Anyway, here is how you win a free tattoo of your dog!
There’s a way to get perfect fit pants, without trying them on?! YES. Apparently this is an old school trick for people that work in retail. If you want to see if pants will fit, do this…
Such a delight to chat with Gio about his amazing band, playing Lollapalooza for the first time, coming up in Stephenville, TX and the correct pronunciation of the living legend and title of his single Ramón Ayala. <3 Lauren

This Karen wants her name to get out of your mouth! Stop using it as a bad term! PLEASE!
A Yankees fan punched a hole through his hotdog- maybe to put in ketchup or mustard? Nope! He submerged his dog into his giant beer to get the best of both worlds at the same time. It’s a hotdog straw! This genius has gone viral for his act and rightfully so! Way to go, dog!
You can’t hear screams in space, but astronomers have put this together to make a noise of what it might be like to hear the sound from a black hole. Crazy! How did they do it? “Astronomers discovered that pressure waves sent out by the black hole caused ripples in the cluster’s hot gas that could be translated into a note that humans can hear, middle C.”
This girl works at Starbucks, so she would know how they over charge every.single.day. She made a quick video on some money saving tips. You can even see her manager walk by her while she’s recording and she stops. Here are some of her expert tips and tricks to avoid spending a good chunk of your paycheck on a cup of joe!
Lo’eau Labonta mixed it up when she did her celebration after her goal. A lot of players will do the slide, just jump around with their teammates. Hers was well thought out- stop, smile, then twerk. Goal girl!
